your response should have been "sorry i doubted you"

THANK YOU. since i always used to seem to pick up the chixz at mg shows, i usually reference the show to the girl. that one was a curly haired sfu student who lived in capitol hill area of burnaby and kept stepping on broken glass. her friend was a total bitch.

it's been done. i was there. it was a full band show. either opened the show with it or encored with it.

a smokie from the real canadian superstore. damn good.

speaking of accents... i was at the vancouver auto show yesterday and some dude from hyundai comes up to me and says "would you like to win a new accent?" and i said "no mate, i already have one" in my best aussie voice.

yeah i've heard both of them. i promise. i remembered saying to myself "wow, this sounds exactly like it does on the album" upon hearing the guitar for double life.

this guy is hi-brow????

what about cigars and single malt?

you do what you can to promote an album, i guess?

i spent a few minutes this morning trying to analogize his sound, and this comes damn close. except he's no ordinary white dude... he's a redhead.

man of action and double life have both been played. i remember that, and at the time i thought it was the coolest thing ever.

then you could pipe in with a really 'official sounding voice' and say something like "thank you for holding. we appreciate your business. did you know that by pressing the pound key and repeating your home address three times within 15 seconds you'll be placed at the front of the line for future calls?" then go back to humming or singing. now i want to get a job in a call centre just to try this.

i swear to god the humming/singing thing would be fun too. people wouldn't know how to react.

for the record... that is a completely original idea... straight from the desk of ol' mr. s. catcher

tell them that before they ask their question or whatever, that if they take part in a quick survey, they'll a) help to improve the company and b) be placed on a priority list in which all their future calls will always be answered first. by taking part in the survey they become "VIP". then of course, make the questions totally stupid, but still somewhat pertaining to the subject and ask lots of them so it takes up a long time. or.. say 'can you hold for a moment' every so often, then hum or sing into the phone as if they're listening to 'hold' music.

they should have called in Googin.

a breakfast cookie.

what? leave your guns at home and your hand sanitizer in your checked baggage. it is NOT tough to fly... anyone who says that is either too cheap to go anywhere but can't admit it, or has a hard time leaving the house every day on account of the mad mad world* we live in. *tom cochrane rules.

oh man i thought you said a girl scout's cookie. which would have been awesome. nature valley granola bar.

the female cat has taken to sleeping on my fucking table. THIS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!

i think i paid an extra $20 to get it in 48 hours or something... mind you it could have been substantially more than $20, but who's keeping track? the point is i got my passport and did some travelin'

yeah, paying $60 to qualify yourself for world travel is quite the deal breaker.

In Bruges

i think the total land area of st. maarten is something like 20km^2... so not much place to put an international airport when you're surrounded by beach. it's probably one of my top five places in the world, though.

aaaaaaand lock.
