Anyone know what's going on or is this just a local thing that I've no idea about?
about Krayis
Guys...

Is it still an 8 color minimum on subs?
I look at this and it appears to be what a dye sub printer can do... not screen print.

Basically, I want to submit but I'm a painter and not a very big fan of illustrator (at least not yet).

So is this a gradient or some crafty technique that passes as 8 color minimum?

I've been a member for almost 3 years and life's just passin' me by. I'm tired of sitting on my hands and giving my self a stranger. I wanna' get this bitch did!

...well remember I told you way back when, that your play list in red ink was washed away somehow?
Anywho, I did a little recon and haaaaaad to find out who sang that song "Oh Anna". The Microphones, now I know (and knowing is half the battle).

That song has been rocking my ballz off!!!! I love that Washington lo-fi sound. It's right up there with the likes of Unwound, Eric's Trip, Mendoza Line, etc.

It also makes me think of this song by Julie Doiron.
You might already have it.


Thanks for such a cool mix. It's got staying power!
Me and the Mizzes plan to attend this shin-dig in the ATL fo rill'.
The after party will be be hosted at Big Boi's mansion where we'll be chillin' with the Dungeon family getting lit on the finest drohl.

KC sweetheart, I hope you can make it. You live fairly close and we can put the finishing touches on those adoption papers and just pick you up while we're there.
Sound ok, hun?
So the "kids" from my town are making waves in the underground.
They're playing here, 9/19 and I plan on seeing them.

Pre-band period, I would see them all the time at TSI (one of 2 hot spots in all of jax). The singer and drummer were both dj's playing great stuff on a regular basis.

Well, they're on their way and doing well. I'm proud of them and I'm proud of the fact that there's a decent and tasteful band coming out of this jerkwater hick town, besides the following that make me ohhh soooo proud:
Limp Bizkit, Shinedown, Red Jumpsuit, Yellowcard, Cold.
(All utter rubbish, imo)

Anyway, it's nice to see a band that is a little slack on testosterone coming out of Skynardville. We do have an art scene , a pilot light yes... but it's lit! And it's nice to see it shine like this, FINALLY! (I've only been waiting 14 years, jeezus!!)



So folks, what are your thoughts?
Have you listened to the music? Have they strolled thru your town?
was crap.

I had hopes for this movie. But alas it was Hollywood tripe drivel.
I got sick of seeing that moon faced girl playing his daughter.
I got sick of a lot of things.

I read a review that this was Steve Carell's best performance to date. No, that was Little Miss Sunshine.

Any thoughts on this film.













Oh, btw... it was almost as bad as Step Mom, if that can be possible.
It's a triple header...

Dead Meadow
Built to Spill
Pelican

All equally super! (Except BTS was uncomfortably packed)

Have you caught any of these gems lately?
I just can't get over how intoxicating this album is.

As brilliant as their past albums are, they come out with this and I'm like... THOSE BASTARDS DID IT AGAIN!!!

If Radiohead make music well into their 50's, I wouldn't be surprised.
They just can't stop.


So who liked it, loved it, or panned it?
Yes, I randomly look up things like mad bulls...
and Asian midget kick boxing.





This is just insane, though.

... a 3 year old clone of you running around doing movie reviews?!?





absolutely adorable;)

All about me

"What if I send it in and they don't like it? What if they say I'm no good?
What if they say " Get out of here, kid. You got no future?
I mean, I just don't think I can take that kind of rejection."




Today's feature:

"That was a safari punch!"

I've only wanted to do this to just about... well...
anyone I've ever worked with.

"Many people and cultures view t-shirts as a simple piece of apparel that can be acquired cheaply and worn in casual situations. For white people, it’s never that easy. The t-shirt is one of the most complex and expressive items in their entire wardrobe.

Your choice of casualwear says a lot about you, and there are stringent rules and hierarchies associated with T-shirts that you must know before venturing into any white-dominated social situations.

T-shirts fall into three categories: vintage, new, and unacceptable, with the latter category compromising the bulk of the world’s supply. Within each category lies another, more precise subset of rules and rankings. Make no mistake, this is complicated.

The most prized t-shirt category is vintage. As shown earlier, white people need authenticity like they need oxygen and to have an original vintage t-shirt from the 1970s or 1980s is a very powerful social status symbol. The ideal shirt will have a funny logo, a year attached to it, and will be as thin as rice paper. In the event that two white people have shirts that meet this criteria, the superior ranking is given to the person who paid the least for the shirt. Acquiring a shirt at a vintage clothing store is seen as less respectable than sorting through racks at the Goodwill.

The second category of t-shirt is new and there really are only two options. The first is American Apparel, a company that constantly reminds you it is based in downtown Los Angeles. They are considered an acceptable white company since they produce things that are very simple, but also very expensive. The second acceptable new shirt is Threadless. This Chicago-based company produces artistic and funny t-shirts that are acceptable for concerts, Whole Foods and 80s night. White people like these shirts so much because they are designed by white people, for white people. Sort of like a white FUBU.

Finally, and perhaps the most important to be aware of, is the unacceptable category of t-shirts. There are a few simple rules to follow in order to avoid wearing the wrong t-shirt. First, if it’s made of a stiff, thick cotton, throw it in the garbage immediately. White people t-shirts must be made of the softest, finest organic cotton. This is law. Unless it is vintage, the shirt cannot be made in a foreign country (unless you can certify its labor conditions). The shirt cannot contain a current sports logo. Shirts with sports logos are acceptable, but they must contain a logo that hasn’t been used in 15 years. Last and not least, it cannot be baggy. Your t-shirt must be tight-fitting for both style and mating purposes.

It is also imperative to understand that faux vintage shirts (”Getting Lucky in Kentucky”) are completely unacceptable. They are beloved by the wrong kind of white people, and must be avoided at all costs.

This information is best applied when you are planning on attending a social gathering. Your t-shirt says a lot about you, and if it’s the right kind of shirt it will set white people at ease. Also, asking a white person “where did you get that shirt?” will allow them to tell you a detailed story about how they acquired it. This will enable them to assert why their shirt has a higher ranking than yours and they won’t view you as a threat.

Never underestimate the importance of t-shirts to white culture. It is an essential tool in determining the social rank, desirability, and value of a white person."
