Bid de Bid de Bop

dawnwells04.jpgTheres something about the 1 hit wonder thats facinating. With great frequency someone (usually me) will bust out the Final Countdown at work. I cant turn Radar Love off while Im in the car, no matter how late I am. Then theres the ever pressing question: "How Do You Talk To An Angel?"

On the way to work the other day another favorite popped into my head (and into my heart). Us3s Cantaloop. This song makes me so happy. Its all the "Jazz" anyone really needs. (I like the Jazz and all people but do we really NEED it?) I decided to look it up on the onlines and found this. Enjoy.

Nothings Fine, Im Torn

homealone.jpg...and Im pretty excited. I have the whole day off tomorrow. Everyone else has to work. Theres no family in town. And Im almost done with my Zelda. I wont be able to do everything on the Zelda tomorrow. I could probably get through the rest of the plot but I havnt done very much as far as side quests go. Im sure I could spend the entire day on the side quests as well and still not get them done either. The crappy thing is I work the 4 days after that, then my dads in town for a couple days, then I work, the Deal or No Deal auditions (assuming I get the day off) then work some more. So this puts me at April 16th as the earliest Ill have the house to myself again. (Potentaly not until the 20th.)

Somebody Told Me, This is the Place, Where Everythings Better, Everythings Safe

I didnt get much sleep last night. There was a very pressing matter keeping me up. Every time Id start to doze off hed ask me that question: "Deal, or no deal?" I dont know Howie! Well have to ask the die.

banker_photo.jpgIve been tossing around the idea of trying to get on the Deal of No Deal. 2 weeks from yesterday theyre holding open casting calls right here in Phoenix. Alls I gots ta do it go down there and show them how awesome I am. Theyll give me my golden ticket and its off to LA for me, my friends and a couple sets of lucky die. Unfortunately, Phoenix is crazy big so theres going to be mad people going to this thing and only the best of the best will be picked. You gots to have a gimmick. They dont just let any Joe Blow off the street on. Heres my plan:

Step 1: Kiss ass.

Step 2: Gain the Pity Vote
Ill start by telling them how Jaime and I got married so young and we didnt have any money so we didnt get a fancy honey moon. Then Ill go on about how we are in major debt and how Jaimes been in school and how we moved across the country just so she could get a teaching job. (Or did we move to go on Deal or No Deal???)

Step 3: The Gimic
chooseyourweapon.jpgIll be dressed in my Choose Your Weapon tshirt and cargo pants. Ill choose case 20 as my own. This is because when your roll a 20 on an attack its a critical hit. My first 6 cases will be 21-26. Once I have only numbers 1-19 standing Ill ask if I can have #6 stand to the left of #4 down in the front and the rest of the girls stand behind them. Ill have my best sets of die with me and the die will do the picking. The next 5 cases will be determined by d20 rolls. If I roll a 20, 6 or 4 itll be a reroll. (It will have likely hit the thing.) The next 4 will be 2 d12s and 2 d10s. Since it will be very unlikely that only the low numbers will be left, the lowest number will be a roll of 1 and the highest number will be the highest roll possible. This will continue until the banker has made a worthy offer.

Last Night, Kyle Quit the Band

33880930v1_240×240_front.jpgLast night, Josh, Neil, Dan and I were walking around at Calvin. We went into one of the dorms and there were some people sitting in the lobby with their drums guitars and bass guitar. The stopped playing when they saw us and the girl playing drums got up and came running up to us. She started yelling and screaming and jumping up and down in pure delight. "Its you, its you, its you!" "Will you sing with us?!" "Right over here!" She then pulls me over to a mic and the band starts playing To Find A Better Place. So naturally I started singing and after the song was done it was revealed that they were a The Infamous Paczki cover band. They told us how great it was to actually be able to play for us.
