ON NEW YEARS DAY..WE'LL CHANGE BACK TO OURSELVES

Ha! It's technically Dec.31st right now which means I'm just under the wire for my annual, year end wrap-up. You thought I'd forget didn't you? Hah! never say die! Just say "don't write in here for 3-4 months at a pop!" Anyhoosish...uh..last time I left you I had just gotten my first tattoo which would place that entry late September-ish. So that was one semester of grad school and one more tattoo (with another to happen in 4 days)ago. Things have been alright since then.October brought the release of the Funeral Crashers debut album La Fin Absolue Du Monde (Pass the Bannana Fish Monkey)and it's proceeded to sell like lukewarm-cakes backed by overwhelmingly positive reviews. In November we went camping again and I fought a bull and nealy died in the hottub. Both of those stories are far more interesting as tiny blurbs than fully explained. Classes were decent except for statistics which I'm not fully done with yet..again, the less details the better. I got my thesis abstract approved which means I can begin getting it into proposal format and then think about implication *shudder*. 2008 is going to be one busy fucking year I tell you what. I took a part time job at an ad agency which..well it sucks. But it keeps me fed so I really can't complain..I can but what's the point. Anyone know of a part-time gig that pays over $10 an hour? Didn't think so. Shit. Christmas was good. I got some much needed items like new underwear and a copy of Microsoft Office. I stopped wanting fun things long ago. That pretty much brings us to the present soooooo without further adieu...my Best of the Best 2007:

Movies:
Once again I saw like 2 movies in the theater this year. Movies are terrible. Of those the winners were Grindhouse (minus Quentin Tarantino's part) and Hot Fuzz.

Television: Flight of the Conchords, Entourage, Most Evil, LA Ink and Scarred. Good year for tv!

Music: Oh yes, music. First up..albums. Again..no money..blah blah blah..so here you go..

1. Ben Weasel - These Ones are Bitter (good to have a BW album in the number 1 spot. First time since like 1997)

2. The Unlovables - Heartsickle

3. Municipal Waste - The Art of Partying

4. Short Attention - Clever, Maddening Annoying

5. Funeral Crashers - La Fin Absolue du Monde (fuck you..it rules!)

6. Witches with Dicks - Manual

SINGLES:

Best:

1.) Gwen Stefani - Sweet Escape. This came out Dec.2006..kiss my ass. Best song of the year. It's our generation's "Cherish"!

2.) Kanye West feat. T-Pain - The Good Life. She got the goods..she got that ass..I had to look...(sorry)

3.) Lloyd feat. Lil' Wayne - You. Best sample of "True" since PM Dawn's "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss."

4.) Bobby Light - Dirty Girl. Eat your ass up like a 40oz steak (poter house bitch!)

5.) Sean Kingston - Beautiful Girls. Sue-E-Ci-Doh

6.) Riahanna - Umbrella. Ella..ella..ella..

7.) Rich Boy - Throw Some D's. I hope no one throws anything at me

Worst:

1.) Cobe Callai - Bubbly. Death. I wish death upon her. Death.

2.) Fergie - Big Girls Don't Cry. The fact that her album is still selling a bazillion copies makes me lose even more faith in mankind.

3.) Nickleback - whatever it's called. You know what song I'm talking about. jesus christ. Fucking Nickleback.

4.) Alicia Keys - No One. She's just yelling! That's not music!

5.) Whoever sang that Music is my Boyfriend song. This song is the bane of my existence.

Phrase of 2008: "hit 'em with the strings!" will have to do.

So that's it. Happy new year everyone! Be safe, have fun, take your vitamins, say your prayers, be a Hulkamaniac, etc..see you guys in 2008 8 8 8 8 8 8..eiiiigghhhhttttt!
