Dave Kellam

Bradford Cox is around again. Haven’t seen any of his stuff around since the original swanky community folded. He and Jay came up with the sound of print. A very cool site with type and graphics influenced by music. Remember finding it through mills back when he had enterface going on. I think he did a design or something for them.

I taught the kids keystrokes this morning, how to navigate a computer without a mouse. Mice can be so damn slow and inefficient at times. Damn, saw one of those microsoft intellimouse explorers yesterday, pretty sweet. I need something with more precision. Go see thespot.

So does untickalock.

EvilPupil rocks.

Had a fun weekend wandering around downtown montreal. We stayed at a travelodge that was within easy walking distance of just about everything. We ate dinner at Dunn’s, it has great smoked meat (the waiter made an excellent sales pitch). Went to the stp/rhcp concert in the evening. I liked the stone temple pilots set better than the red hot chili peppers one but, I thought rhcp put on a better show. The chili’s had all the raw energy and just pumped up the crowd more that stp. We left the show about halfway through the rhcp encore. They never really played any song in particular, just jammed for 20 minutes.

After that we hit a stripclub and a bar on ste. catherine’s st. About half an hour after the concert was over the sky opened up and it rained. You end up sitting around inside soaking wet. Yah, I went to a stripclub; eighteen and nineteen year old guys, what do you expect? It was fun, but it’s kind of a waste of money, not something you want to do on a regular basis. The bar we went to was pretty cool, although you had to be frisked before going in. Dave and I followed it up by wandering around chinatown at four in the morning, really not a whole lot to do.

Some of the guys left around noon, Cam and I took the train home. Damn ViaRail isn’t efficient at all, we were delayed both ways and ended up having to take a bus part way home. Wandered around montreal, bought some cd’s: Grade – Triumph & Tragedy, Apartment 26 – Hallucinating, A – A vs Monkey Kong, Pavement – Spit on a Stranger, Jawbreaker – Bivouac, as well as a set of speakers for my new computer.

I’m off for the weekend, going to see the red hot chili peppers and stone temple pilots in montreal. It should be a lot of fun.

Finished watching The Day of the Jackal tonite. It’s a really good movie, I liked it better than the remake. The newer one was all action, this one is more of a thriller. The jackal is sly and cunning, always one step ahead of the detective. Although the detective does a great job tracking him, considering he was given almost nothing to work with. It’s worth watching.

Fun Toy Banned Because of Three Stupid Kids. Man, i love the onion. It’s all stuff that people are thinking about. I know you’ve thought about how stupid some kids can be. Toys are too safe these days, when kids encounter a slightly dangerous toy, they don’t know what the hell to do. I blame it all one little tikes and their toys with big rounded edges. How do you poke your eye out or get a nasty cut with a big round plastic edge?

Speaking of caffine addictions: riothero.
