For the next THREE WEEKS!

(In this edition of Sex Panther, I've filled the blog with easter eggs! Let's read more..)

No, nobody expects me to build a house in that amount of time. Although, Ted once commanded that I finish building his mom's new house in two weeks. Crap. I digress.

The extra special "treat-reward" that I'll be ever-so-enthusiastically gnawing on for a near month will be a hearty round of midnight shifts! So, while you're out tilling the fields, tending to the harvest or milking Ol' Bessy - I'll be fast asleep - probably doubled over a piping hot keyboard, in a failed attempt to bring you fine denizens of the digital computerweb some new(ish) content.

Now, while this may cause the tides themselves to wane into a deep, month-long recession, I expect no long-term ill effects. That is, unless you overlook the lack of sleep I'll likely have to endure in the coming weeks. Truth be told, it'll probably not be as bad as I'm making it out to be. Sure, nobody wants to work this crap shift but the consistency of working a steady shift (for once) does make it a bit easier to bear. I just wish there was somebody else there to talk to whilst I toil away at the help desk.

God, I can't wait to finally get a replacement camera. Hopefully sometime after Ted's wedding we'll all magically be richer. Boy, that'd be nice. I feel SUYM stagnating beneath my inability to actually go out and buy a decent camera. Damn my impatience. I know another one is coming soon, but I'm so chock full of ideas at the moment (not to mention my free time comes at a premium anymore). I've got two SUYM firsts brewing in my mind-mellon (both are songs) that can be produced this very summer had we the camera to film it. Damn my impatience, yet again. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like I'm just not doing my part if I can't produce some kind of material on a regular basis. What the hell good is SUYM if there's no new content? I remember when this place used to be a literal hub of entertainment for southwestern Pennsylvania. I'd like nothing more to return SUYM to that echelon.

I've got my share of little side-projects to occupy my time until then. I'm developing new pages for SUYM, which is going very well, but still only inspires me so much. I can only do so much with digital text and images. A good portion of this relies heavily on Rollo, who has admirably been working his ass off lately. Back to square one. Content will come...eventually...

Oh! I went to the Poison concert last Wednesday. Consol gave away premium box tickets which my buddy won, but ultimately gave to me. Reese and I sat in the box for a few songs, but rejoined our crew on the lawn to party hard. Reese got most of the pics from the concert, so you'll have to peep the pics her myspace or facebook, if you're lucky enough to know her.

Speaking of the concert, my girlfriend and Necciai are assholes (haha). They like to stand out of sunroofs / lean out of car windows with beers in their hands - while the car is still moving. The coppers stopped us, requested ID, asked if we were smoking weed (to which I replied with a hearty "I WISH!!") and released us from custody. Both Rollo and I (drivers of cars) dodged a bullet for the umpteenth time.

Rounding out the blog, here are some cool things that I think are important and you should know:

• Brand New's new album "The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me" is A+. Their single "Jesus Christ" is simply amazing. Catch my myspace and give it a listen. The CD cover is creepy.
  
• Hard Fi has a good song out called "Cash Machine" that has some excellent lyrics with an 80's style riff. Haven't heard any of their other stuff, but Cash Machine is fantastic.
• I've been watching reruns of The X-Files lately. I didn't realize what a truly good show it turned out to be.
• For one reason or another, grape powerade is slowly becoming my second favorite drink to water. Tasty!
• Lastly - kids; return your library books. Do your part. Make a difference.
