Once I got knocked out, but it wasn't a real fight.

I was just messing scrapping -- no face shots -- with one of my friends for a little fun, it's something a big group of us always did back in grades 9 and 10, but this guy was a beast and no one ever wanted to take him on. Anyway, one of our friends wanted to see this guy fight, so I offered to do it... even though I was pretty hesitant.

So it lasted a few seconds... he accidentally nailed me across the jaw... apparently twice. Then I woke up and was lying on the ground. He gave me $5 or something because he was sorry.

Point Counterpoint looks really interesting.

I'll try and pick it up over the weekend.

I have never been knocked out. I might have blacked out for a few seconds when I crashed my motorcycle. I got a class 2 concussion from that and that usually means that you are knocked out, but I don't remember being knocked out. I wiped out, hit my shoulder and head, hit the kill switch and got the bike upright as fast as possible. Even the person that say it happen didn't have enough time to move before I had it back upright. Always wear a helmet, it saved my life.

I bareknuckle boxed like 10 times last year within the span of a week or so. More for fun than anything else. I only took one good shot, and it was across the jaw, but I didn't go down or anything. It just hurt really bad for a couple of weeks. I think if it was on the chin I would've gone down for sure.

Words can't even describe how amazing it sounds.

Maybe it's partly due to upgrading from a Behringer 60watt amp that I've played on for 3 years... but oh em gee. It's frigging bliss. I never used to care for the sound of my open B string that much, but it just sounds so damn good now. So warm and punchy.

I bet that the people that live within a block of you hate you already. Mainly because you just brown noted all of them.

New episode of The Office tonight! :D

It was an old one last week, I think because of the World Series.

I can't wait!

The countdown begins: 50 minutes...

Spaceman Spiff 11-02-2006 08:01 PM

Or should I say...

40 minutes.

Very very pretty.

I want one, although, for transport reasons (and lack of money) I cannot get one.

Damn

BenJammin 11-02-2006 08:22 PM

I love it. It's got such a huge sound. Worth every last penny.
