Could you distinguish Miles from Coltrane..?


I just downloaded an old favorite of mine. Sue me but I can't find John Mayer's comfortable on retailed CDs.. Not that I actually tried that hard looking for it though hehe. But its one of those songs that really digs inside of you and pulls out that last sentimental memory out. I know that it was a long time ago but it doesn't mean that you can't reminiscense once in a while eh? Still, I thought John should have stayed acoustic all the way.

I guess I should share it with everyone then. Please listen to it people. Download it if you must!

John Mayer - Comfortable

Beetles are spelt with an 'E'


Its funny how the band got so popular that I kept on spelling the insect "Beatles". Its just so dumb of me. Thank God that m line of work or for that matter my life in general does not require me to persistently spell the word 'beetles' or a lot of embarrassing moments would have ensued. I have always loved the band since I was a little kid when I say 'Help!' on tv. It was in black and white but it beat the crap out of Bon Jovi let me tell you that. Then I got this best of Beatles tape and the sound of the 60's, 70's and (prematurely ended) 80's have always been in the back of my head.

That was why I found a recently aired documentary too pervasive and obtrusive. Don't blame me if I don't really care whether or not John Lennon was gay, bi- or just experimenting. It almost killed my dream after I finished watching that but then I thought "fuck it." I forgot that in this day and age the value of privacy is as low as the price of a second hand Tiara. People find it amusing and exciting to watch 12 teenagers on TV through webcams (which nods mind you). And its absolutely OK for us to judge them because we can see everthing! How shallow are we?

To me Its all just fucking stupid. The show is stupid too btw.

Rolling with the punches.


I have problems with people who are not consistent. That would probably include some of my friends and the entire female population. At least when you are referring to a dude, you're well informed and you know what to expect. Dealing with women however, is like having a boxing match with your eyes blindfolded. You just have absolutely no idea where the next punch is going to come from. I got this from watching this movie about a black kid who hot his ass kicked by white people in the middle of a boxing ring for money. And then I thought, what I feel now must somehow reflect what that boy was feeling because as I said, not only are you in the dark, you also get this foreboding feeling that at any moment your head is going to get swung at.
As I have repeatedly said, women are the root of all evil as far as men are concerned. It was Eve who got us booted out of HEAVEN in the first place while we were just hanging around enjoying God's bounty. The problem was, it has always been us who had to take the fall for women's inconsistent behaviour. Somehow, sometimes I get the feeling that God invented the menstrual dilemma for a laugh. You could be comfortable, happy and feeling like nothing can fuck things up when 'BAM!' a right hook landed on your chin and your lying on the mat thinking "What the fuck did I do wrong this time?"
