Ebb and Flow
I was thinking today about being in my twenties. What a shitstorm. It is so easy to get lost and confused about life and what you are supposed to be doing with it. I tend to cope with spending stupid amounts of time on some project hoping it will define me or bump me out of my existential funk. I quickly realized I had made no memories slaving over something that inevitably didn’t work out....

Dear Pat Robertson,
I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out. And you make God look like a big mean bully who kicks people when they are down, so I’m all over that action. But when you say that Haiti has made a pact with me, it is totally humiliating. I may be evil incarnate, but I’m no welcher.
The way you put it, making a deal with me...

Thank you all. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
With Christmas cheer,
Jake

Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic...
themadeshop:
First, we must know how the mass of Hell is changing over time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave.
Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the...
So close...
I am tired of waiting until the moment when I step off the plane and see my family for the first time in too long. All of my friends have already gone home pretty much. Nashville has been the quietest I have ever seen it. And I have been ready to go home for months. It is finally here. I am heading to the airport in about 45 minutes, to wait for two hours, to get on the plane and wait another two...

The next iPhone will have video chat.
I started my vinyl collection tonight.
Well I just couldn’t handle it anymore, I finally started my vinyl collection. I had the gall to write a post on my other blog about vinyl coming back as the new main physical format for music without even having a vinyl collection of my own. So with the intention of full integrity, I started mine.
After spending two hours at the record store flipping through every single record in that...

Jake: How's that baby doing?
Me: He's dead. How are you?
Jake: Have you been waiting to use that answer, or did you just think of it?
Me: I'm fast as lightning. It just popped into my head.
dear rivers cuomo,
pacella:
Hey man, how’s it going? It’s been a while. We haven’t really hung out much since the days of the Blue album and Pinkerton. I feel like you owe me an apology. I don’t know what it is, but you’re just different now. Maybe the money went to your head? Maybe it was the fame? I don’t know, but something happened, and you really screwed me over. Remember when I used to pop your music into...
