Overdose - it's gonna be a Pardee
For those of you in the Santa Monica area this coming month with an itchin for some groovy visuals i highly suggest you go check out the Overdose art exhibit by Hi-Fructose @ the Copro Gallery opening on April 4 and running thru April 25. There is a barrage of amazing artists:
Alex Garcia Alex Pardee Andrew Hem Annie Owens Anthony Ausgang Attaboy Bob Dob Brandi Milne Brandt Peters Brendan Danielsson Chet Zar Chris Berens Chris Owens Chris Peters Chris Scarborough Greg "Craola" Simkins Damon Soule Dan May Dan Quintana David Correia Ekundayo Eric Fortune Erik Alos Femke Hiemstra Germs Glenn Barr Gris Grimly Jason D'Aquino Joe Vaux Josh Keyes Kathie Olivas Kenji Kokamoto KMNDZ Kris Kuksi Kukula Lola Luke Chueh Makiko Sugawa Mars-1 Martin Wittfooth McBess Mia Michael Page Naoto Hattori Nathan Spoor Robert Hardgrave Sam Gibbons Scott Musgrove Sergei Aparin Shag Skot Olsen Thomas Han Tin Tom Haubrick Travis Louie Viktor Safonkin Vince Cacciotti Yoskay Yamamoto Yosuke Ueno Yoko D’holbachie

So anywho you should check this shiot out. (yes i meant to write shiot biatch) Unless you have better things to do. Like waste money on expensive cocktails in a club/bar that could give two shits about that gucci shirt you raped yourself on and just wants your money/time/life. I'm sure you have way more creative preoccupations. And plus you just ain't got time for them hoes.

Jobby Job. And so on
I got a job!!! It seems to be a great job. I make more money, work for a more reliable company, have a better cafeteria, can wear jeans, and it's only half a mile from home! I'm very excited. The only problem is getting to bed in time. After months of staying up till 3am watching Battlestar Galactica and Absolutely Fabulous I seem to be having trouble being asleep at a reasonable time. Go figure. But I'm getting up earlier and really worn out from today so it shouldn't be a problem in a day or so. Now i can hopefully have the funds to see Ghoul when they come to town in a couple months! Word!
So I got a text the other day from my friend in LA asking how i was. This was about a week or so before i got the job. I felt bad that all i had to offer was whining and pity for not having a job, or a life or whatever. But he still seemed keen on the idea of me coming out to Long Beach and spending a little time with him. I was so happy to hear that he still welcomes me even though we haven't had much of a chance to see each other in a year or so. He's such a nice person (and handsome too). He even said with his flyer miles he might be able to swing a ticket for me. *swoon* Now that I have a job it will be hard to manage that for a couple of months but what a sweetheart. It's always easier to deal with the present if you have something to work towards and look forward to.
School is also much more feasible now. I figure if I save my money and only make minimum payment to my 2 credit cards I will have plenty of money to take care of the next 2 semesters and still have a few grand saved for Tucson if everything works out. I REALLY want to go to Tucson. NAU ans ASU just don't appeal to me. Either too hippie or too..... well, Tempe. Cross ya' fingaz.
The latest media is Mitch Hedberg, Army of Lovers; Crucified, Alex Pardee, (the super handsome, intelligent, talented) Jeremy Fish (see video below), Hole, The Killer Gerbil, oh yeah and I finally found the blog and store for flyingfortress!! (see below)

Favorite Conversation
This is my favorite conversation I've ever had with my friend Ashley. Or anybody for that matter:
Ash: Mike, have you ever even seen a real vagina?
Me: Yeah, I saw yours like 2 hours ago remember?
Ash: Oh yeah.
Ash: Mike, have you ever even seen a real vagina?
Me: Yeah, I saw yours like 2 hours ago remember?

Ichi the Killer
Here's a doozy for y'all. It's become one of my favorite horror movies. From the acclaimed Japanese director Takashi Miike the master of Japanese horror/torture/insane gruesome cinema comes Ichi the Killer. Actually it came out quite a while ago but we in America just don't have the guts to watch this kind of stuff in theater. Of course being the Japan nut that I am I fell in love the first time I watched it. I've always admired films that seem to have a super human quality to them but no super human powers. The characters are obviously human but traumatized at childhood or had some sort of fetish for the unusual sending them onto a path of life that creates more than your average man. I won't ruin the story, actually I couldn't come close to describing the awesomeness of the movie but the overview is a yakuza foot soldiers master has gone missing and he will stop at nothing to find him. It doesn't contain much culture as most great Japanese films do but if your a fan of gore, horror, torture, yakuza, self mutilation, terror, revenge, and the insanity that Japanese films are so famous for then you will enjoy this movie. Even if your not too big on all that jazz you should watch it anyways!! Enjoy.
