I crashed your wedding and slept with your sister - m4w - 33 (Orlando)
Ok look, I'm the guy that crashed your wedding this weekend and made an ass out of myself. It was a free bar and a rocking party I couldn't help myself. I ran back up to my room, put on a suit and mingled until the booze kicked in and I felt the need to dance. Here's the problem, I slept with your sister and didn't wear protection, I think I love her. I think it's the right thing to do to court her and then invite you to our wedding. It's the least I can do. So if you can find it in your heart to forgive please pass this onto her, was was amazing (And also I still have her panties) Thanks!

The Rent Is 2 Damn High

So there was a debate between the candidates for Governor of New York. All I know is Jimmy McMillan(a former postal worker also known as "Papa Smurf")has my vote! He's a candidate for the Rent Is 2 Damn High Party. Or "My Facial Hair Is 2 Damn Awesome Party" or even, "These Gloves Are 2 Steezy Party".

* On the deficit: "It's like a cancer. It will heal itself."
* On negative campaigning: "As a karate expert, I will not talk about anyone up here."
* On gay marriage: "The Rent Is 2 Damn High Party feels if you want to marry a shoe, I'll marry you."
* On... Jesus, I have no clue what prompted this one: "We plan to bulldoze some of those mountains in Upstate to make New York an independent state. I want my own cable company; I want my own telephone company."
* On the rent: Too damn high.



Also be sure to check out his website...which reminds me of the website Homer made in an old Simpsons episode. There's also a song or spoken word piece or whatever you want to call it below which is amazing.

I see u passing by all the time. And when you do my panties get wet; Maybe is your yellow helmet, I don't know... my rubber ducky, the one I used to play with In the tub was yellow, that probably explains why I get horny, or maybe is your smile... My ex the one who was into meth and crack had the same smile... I gets me all worked up... I don't know... I just wanted to let you know that if I see you I'll stop pretending to be a lady and I will jump you like the little hore I am, that's right I said it!, but keep it mind that after that, I'll go back to be a princess looking for her knight i'n shining armour and dreaming about the prince rescuing me... The little girl that wants true love. Till then be ready for the fuck of your life my hard working, toothless, blue collar working man!!!

Energetic hair at Home Depot - w4m - 23 (home depot on 441)
You have fantastic hair that you said many people have likened to Kramer's from Seinfeld, are rather energetic yourself, love cinema, mentioned screenwriting and you are(/were?) a psych major. Today (Saturday), I made a snarky remark about your impressive ability to count. You got flustered and blamed your college education.
Holy bejesus, you are hot as shit, and I want to do dirty things to you while running my fingers through said fantastic hair. I have no idea if you found me at all attractive, as I was dressed rather boringly in all black and my hair was, well, big.. but if you did - you should let me know!

Here Comes Halloween

These are some photos from last year's Halloween...or the year before, who knows? These never saw the light of day for some reason. So, I figured i'd post these in anticpation for Halloween 2010.

Deerhunter For My Birthday

I was gonna write something...but this review from the Void99 said everything I was gonna say already. Enjoy.

A lot of the songs played were from Halcyon Digest. Two of which in Helicopter and He Would Have Laughed had Cox playing an acoustic guitar with noise pedals for effects. Other songs played were Revival, Nothing Ever Happened, and the title track for EP Rainwater Cassette Exchange. After a nine-song set, the band took a break with fans yelling for an encore where they got a surprise.



For one night only, Colin Mee returned to the band to play a three-song encore. It definitely got crazier and during the last song where everything got way overboard. With Mee playing upside down, Fauver dancing around, drummer Moses Archuleta keeps playing the drums, and Cox and Pundt both making a pose. Something incredible happens that can’t be put into words.



The fans suddenly were on stage and man, that trumps all sorts of concert experiences. This show was more than just a concert but a celebration of Atlanta’s best band finally getting some recognition and coming home to the fans that adored them. And in return, they give them an experience like no other. Karen O was right, going to a Deerhunter show is like a religious experience. Seriously, this is the band to go to see and it will definitely be unforgettable. You can download the full set here...I would def recommend it.

This post would not be possible without these blogs. Thanks!

Shyness is nice, but shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life that you'd like to
So, if there's something you'd like to try
If there's something you'd like to try
Ask me, I won't say no (how could I?)

Coyness is nice, but coyness can stop you
From saying all the things in life you'd like to

Spending warm summer days indoors
Writing frightening verse
To a buck-toothed girl in Luxembourg

Ask me, ask me, ask me
Ask me, ask me, ask me

Nature is a language, can't you read?

So ask me, ask me, ask me

Because if it's not love, then it's the bomb
That will bring us together...

Delivery Driver-So Fine I Freaked - w4m - 27 (Tallahassee, FL)
I made the best choice of my life yesterday when I ordered a sandwich from your restaurant. You looked a little like Shaggy, but more scooby-licious, if you know what I mean. I ordered a big john and a cookie. I wish I would have had the nerve to ask if your big john would like to be introduced to my cookie. Fate has a funny way of giving second chances though. I can only hope that you will see this and respond.

BEAUTIFUL BIG BOOTY SISTER IN WALMART - m4w (TALLAHASSEE)
I figured I had to do this after seeing you tonight. I saw you in Walmart, and you blew my mind. You had one of the most lovely, big booty's that I've ever seen. I couldn't tell whether those were cotton pants, or jeans. All I know is that you had a phenomenal body You were beautiful, and I'm not sure whether that was your real hair or not. But I don't care either way. You smiled at me, and I smiled at you. I was the muscular, well toned brother, with the blue jeans, and the fitted t-shirt that really showed my chest and arms. I'm just taking a chance with this, but if you think this is you send me a message with the word WALMART as the subject.
