Re: anyone else getting fucked over by the sequestration?
I'm all for people living within their means but a smartphone and a social life doesn't sound extravagant.
This is flat-out getting double-teamed by your elected officials. No two ways about it.

Re: anyone else getting fucked over by the sequestration?
"If taking a day off is that huge of a burden then what's wrong with the bigger picture" is a little more accurate.

Re: anyone else getting fucked over by the sequestration?
They should all be fired. Bipartisan politics means being able to compromise for the greater good, not having each side say things like "The other guy is letting you get fucked, how do you like it?"

i wonder how POZ is doing .....
He seems okay (we're friends on FB.)
LUGR- if you need someone to hang out with or talk to who won't lead you down the wrong path, I'm around.

How good can anything like this be after 13 years? It's a cash cow, it's not about the audience having an enjoyable experience.
Illuminati is right....there are better festivals out there, you might not get to see all of the bands you want in one convenient package a la Bonnaroo but the promoters actually care about little things like safety and sanitation.

And now you guys are fucking again?

I was working at a record shop around the time RATM's first album came out...I remember one of my friends saying "If these guys are so anti-corporate then why didn't Dischord or Epitaph pick them up? I smell bullshit."
-
Wound up going to a couple bars with my friend the other night, and when you're sober that bar smell is something else. Kind of like a combination of vomit, stale beer and disillusionment rolled into one funky package that cuts right through any head cold.
I don't think I'm particularly mean-spirited, but if I hang around drunk people every once in a while I feel like it's exactly the kind of positive reinforcement I need...watching last call play out is more affirming than any meeting I've ever been to.

"...then the spokesman retracted the apology, yelling 'That's what you get for driving a blue truck, bitches' while firing shots from his sidearm into the air with one hand and wiping white powder from his nostrils with the other."

And that's the busy desktop.

Re: ex-cop on cop killing spree in CA
As soon as I heard that he was holed up in a cabin I knew there was gonna be a fire...I wouldn't be surprised if someone said "Fuck this" and decided it was bazooka time.

So 12oz the question now is what the fuck to name the dog?
Seems kind of pointless to name something you plan to eat, but...what about "Frank the Tank Chavez?" I was thinking "Stick it in her asshole, Francois, I like to watch" has a nice ring to it, or maybe "Tootsie Roll Dispenser."

Every tree all at the same time? Is he God now?

Re: ex-cop on cop killing spree in CA
He's been through a lot....does he have to be consistent?

I had a coworker named Bill who had a tree fall on the cab of his truck. Being the kind of guy to look for solutions he cut the crushed roof off his truck and would drive it wearing his motorcycle helmet when he needed to move stuff from his house to one of his rental properties. The police did not agree with his interpretation of a windshield however.
One summer my friend got the salvage title on a Datsun B210 that had been rolled but ran fine. He cut the roof off, straightened out the frame and replaced the windshield. BOOM! Instant Road Warrior car. Then we painted it flat black and put a Motorhead logo on the hood to top it off. We used to joke with him "But what are you gonna do when it rains?" and he'd say "It's still nice out, fuck it" and change the subject.
A few months go by, then one day I saw him driving around in a storm wearing an old Army helmet and a poncho, leaning as far forward under the windshield as he can. Shortly after that he traded it for a bunch of ecstasy.
Now everyone's trying to figure out what to do with the dog. All I know is that I can barely take care of myself...having a dog to look after would be a disaster for all concerned.
-
He keeps saying we're gonna eat it....I say wait till we figure out whether it's full grown or not.
It's a mini-Pinscher in case anyone's wondering. It's cute, pretty timid, pees a lot. I have a feeling the previous owners are going to show up some time in the next few days, in which case I'm going to bust out their windshield.

Re: ex-cop on cop killing spree in CA
It's getting nasty out there...
"]Hunt for ex-cop goes on amid Calif. snowstorm
As I mentioned earlier, I don't think that the manifesto tells the whole story...unless he figures out a way to get them out there, a lot of the details are going to get glossed over.
Another thing to consider is that the LAPD isn't chasing anyone into the mountains for your average black-on-black triple murder. Way to play your hand, guys.

Re: ex-cop on cop killing spree in CA
Even though Big Bear is easy to get lost in I don't think he's ever going to see the inside of a courtroom, so it's good he got his side of the story out ahead of time. And after reading the "manifesto," I got the impression that he's a fairly principled person...too bad he wound up being a cop, it must have been a hell of a letdown when he realized that he was going to have to work with a bunch of scumbags.
My take on cops is that if they're any good at what they do they can't be all that different from criminals as far as how their mindset works. Factor in the gun and the official capacity and you have someone I want to avoid at all costs...at least most criminals have the sense to keep a low profile and leave you alone as long as you aren't a threat or standing in the way of what they're trying to do.
going all country.

I know or have met most of those people...seems like we know a lot of the same folks. Aside from that all I can say is that it takes years and it usually isn't done for recognition.
