This was requested by a YouTube friend. It’s a pretty catchy song and fun to play as well. Enjoy!

Four chords; that’s all you need to become a famous musician. The Axis of Awesome has proven this. Unfortunately, it’s too true. Our ears are just accustom to certain musical patterns, this specific four chord pattern being one of the most popular ones.

On Friday night some friends and I went to see one of our favorite ska bands, Streetlight Manifesto. The show was incredible and my little brother Trevor was even able to tag along since he didn’t have school the following day. The place was packed; I mean totally packed. Trevor and I tried as best we could, but we couldn’t get all the way to the front; too much moshing and crowd surfing that it was almost futile to attempt to move about the crowd. You literally just had to let the crowd take you where it wanted to take you.

Streetlight was the second of three bands to go. It kind of sucks that they weren’t headlining. My friend Max and I have seen them three or four times before and they’ve headlined for all of those shows. Reel Big Fish headlined for the Friday show. They were quite good as well, except… the had the longest set list ever. Seriously. Streetlight had probably a 45 minutes. Reel Big Fish had about two and a half hours. I understand they’re the headliners, but it would’ve been nice if they proportioned the time a little big more evenly. I suppose that’s also me just being bias, because I like Streetlight Manifesto a lot more than the other two bands.

We actually weren’t even going to stay around for Reel Big Fish, but Max lost his car keys in the crowd at the end of second to last song of Streetlight. Thus, we had to stick around until the place cleared out to rummage through the filth on the floor. Luckily, someone had found them and had given them to the front desk.

A fun night all around.

Straight from yours truly, popurls.com, an Australian man has been arrested for breaking into an adult shop and having sex with a blow-up doll. lolol Apparently, this isn’t the first time either. He was charged with multiple accounts of breaking-and-entering to satisfy his cravings.

Full article here.

Another equally incredible article shows pictures of an overwhelmingly obese man become much thinner (with a little help from liposuction). Of course the first comment of the article is great: “Congratulations. You took the easy way out. First you had no self control and got obese, and now you gutted your body because your fat ass couldn’t hit the gym every weekend. Go back to playing World of Warcraft.”

My PC’s Firefox and Google Chrome crash on me if I try to play Tetris on Facebook. Wtfmate?

Goodbye George W. Bush.

If you ever want to see something funny, go play laser tag. Last night some friends and I decided to go play a few games at Laser Quest (yeah, such an original name). We thought that our group of friends would be split into two teams and be playing against each other. Instead, we were combined with another team of about twelve random people and it was a free-for-all.

The funny part is that there was so much competition in a laser tag game. After the game was finished, their computers would tally up all the tags you made and tags made against you and give you a total score. They would announce and hand out score charts. The people who got first place in the two game we played would raise their hands in the air like they were David defeating Goliath

Can’t say it wasn’t fun though, just kind of comical seeing the intense competition.

So I just managed to cut my middle finger doing a glissando on the piano. There’s a nice streak of blood from middle C to around the C key three octaves higher.

U.S. Airways Plane Crashes Into Hudson River

The big news of the day. A U.S. Airways plane had two of its engines fail shortly after taking off from LaGuardia Airport in New York this morning. The flight that was heading towards Charlotte, North Carolina held 155 people on board the craft and had to engage in an emergency landing in the Hudson River. The pilot skillfully landed the craft as gently as possible into the frigid waters of the Hudson as city-goers watched in awe.

Thankfully all 155 people on board survived, some without any injury. After the plane crashed and came to a halt, the emergency exits were opened allowing the passengers and crew to quickly make there way out onto both wings of the plane, being careful to balance the submerging vessel. Within minutes tankers and other boats patrolling the river came to the aid of the sinking group of escapees.

There were few substantial injuries; though most passengers were taken to the hospital to be treated for hypothermia.

My hat’s off to the pilot of the plane, Capt. Chesley B. Sullenberger for executing such an amazing landing, saving the lives of all her passengers and collies.

I was woken up about twenty minutes ago to aid in shoveling an intimidating two inches of snow… (so pointless) Seeing how I went to bed about three hours ago, I wasn’t happy.

My face is completely frozen.

Why does it have to be so damn cold!?
