Thank Yous

Friday, October 31st, 2003

I usually try not to make a big deal out of my birthday by, you know, not mentioning it on a public medium such as this, but this is more out of appreciation and to give credit where credit is due … Beki – Thanks for the Enrique Iglesias e-card … sponsored by ACUVUE contact [...]

Writer Blocked

Thursday, October 30th, 2003

I’ve been making inordinate use out of the “Draft” feature of ScribNotes lately. I just can’t seem to “turn the corner”, if you will. I can’t tie everything together. I can’t finish my thoughts. Heck, I even had a hard time putting together these 4 or 5 lines of pitter-patter. What’s the best way I [...]

There’s No Hope With Dope

Monday, October 27th, 2003

At the height of it’s popularity, any hit series targeted toward teens would be remiss if they didn’t film an episode specifically devoted to the subject of drugs. Saved By The Bell, a show I grew up with and possibly the greatest and most influential teen-oriented sitcom of all time was no exception. In fact, [...]

Pseudo-Vindication

Tuesday, October 21st, 2003

It’s very fitting that the last entry I wrote detailed the famous “Streaming vs. Downloading” argument here in 3234Q because tonight I was vindicated. All of us were in T-Rav’s room watching streaming video of Hodgson’s1 hamstring crampin up when suddenly the red “stop” indicator came up on Real Player and the video paused for [...]

Imagine the apartment (3234Q) as a microcosm of the U.N. where egos collide, many words are spoken and nothing is ever agreed upon. e-pa: What are you doing out here?thedustin: I’m taking a break while I wait for this lecture to downloadT-Rav: Why are you downloading it anyway?thedustin: I don’t really like streaming. Everytime I [...]

New Music

Sunday, October 12th, 2003

I did it! I got the cellophane plastic wrap and the “security seal” off, each in one piece. That’s the first time it’s ever happened for me, and I owe it all to John Mayer. I do owe some kudos to Vertical Horizon as well because I got theirs off in a total of 5 [...]

Hear Ye, Hear Ye!

Friday, October 10th, 2003

Those of you who know me know I don’t normally like to brag – wait a minute that doesn’t sound right – but I feel I must share with the world that BJ, Eric and I got tickets to the Lord of the Rings Marathon theatrical release. We really really (but not really really really) [...]

“I Don’t Know Where This Road Is Going To Lead”

Thursday, October 9th, 2003

There are moments in your life when something hits you so hard, and there’s no way you could have ever prepared yourself for that moment. It’s almost as if the person on the other end of the line is talking to you in slow motion. You don’t quite know what’s coming next, but when the [...]

Box Out

Wednesday, October 8th, 2003

I won’t dwell on this for too long, but I was watching the intro for the Street Ball: The And 1 Mixtape Tour on espn, and it seems to me that teams could eliminate a high percentage of their opponents’ dunks just by boxing out. But what do I know? Anyway … Greetings! I suppose [...]
