A New Toy

Well, I've bought myself a Mini-Disc Player and I've spent most of the bloody night preparing a disc for tomorrow at the King Mango Strut. . .

Actually, the more I think about it, this post sounds pretty pointless, but I'll go on anyway.

I basically familiarized myself with this new little contraption as well as remember how to work my MP3 ripper. So basically, I made a mix tape for tomorrow. It's my first so I'm pretty proud. I didn't get to put anywhere near all of what I wanted too, and as I was ripping I found myself ripping a whole lot more than I intended.

A bit on the King Mango Strut Parade. It's basically a big parody of the now deceased Orange Bowl Parade. It's a place where a group of comically minded liberals can take over the streets of Coconut Grove and peacefully and somewhat (I use this term loosely) tastefully, mock the government and whatever else has been in the public eye over the past year. They usually pick a local for the grand martial and all that jazz. It's damn fun if you've never been, but I do recommend spending a year at least being aware of what's been going on around you in the general sense. So if you don't watch the news, you miss a lot of the fun. As I said, a large gathering of liberals with a sense of humour. Yes, we do exist.

I really wish my "Bush is Sauron: Save the Shire" t-shirt had arrived for tomorrow, but I guess there will be other opportunities. I'll just have to wear my Harry Potter hat and some sort of rock t-shirt.

Now that I listen to this mix though, It's not bad. A bit of APC, Porcupine Tree, some Who, Echo, Cure. Doors, the Stooges that Milla Jovovitch track from the Underworld Stdk. I also put on "Shooting Star" by Bad Company, just because I like it. Yeah, this with the one I did of my old mp3's from my laptop will work nicely for tomorrow.

Good night.

Just for the record, I abhor Karaoke. I consider it somewhere below cooking related games shows (Ready Set Cook! comes to mind) and poetry written by a teenage girl about how shitty her she thinks her life is and why she should die. If you get drunk and feel the need to sing and can't really sing (at least not to the caliber to where you are not in a band or sometimes perform with one) you should not grab the mike and serenade us with your voice (and please god no freestylin'). This incudes when you're sober and see a Karaoke machine set up so you can purchase one for use in your own home. Don't try it out, and please keep your child away from the machine. It might be cute to you, but it's fucking annoying to me and I have no qualms about turning the machine off.

Basically, if you see me and think "Wow Karaoke!," you've got another thing coming.
