[quote=MeaninglessPhoto;13679774]Nah. One of our friends came up with Indian Summer African Burn. Nobody liked it though.

However, I was drunk one night and came up with A Box of Kittens Stuffed with Pillows. People liked that though haha. Somebody said instead of My Dog Does my Homework, that it should be My Canine Does my Studies. It got a big laugh.[/quote]

i thought of a band name for a hardcore death band or something in english last year

I didn't see my mother at all today. She got home an hour ago, she asked me the normal questions and I responded in the normal fashion. She's cooking dinner, and she's looking for a box of dehydrated onions. She asks me where they are, and I tell her I don't know.

Then she acuses me of using them all. =/


Wtf? I don't cook, first of all, and second of all, why the hell would I use an entire box of dehydrated onion flakes? But apparently, it's my fault. I go to help her look, and she flips out and starts screaming at me.

It's a little weird realizing that you're in a better mood at school, which you absolutely loathe, than in the comfort of your own home. =/


I didn't even do anything.

I dunno, dehydrated onion flakes are pretty delicious. :rolleyes:

We_Love_Lime 11-22-2006 05:44 PM

Thanks Aaron.

I have to buy some brushes next time I'm in the city. I loved playing with brushes on the school kit, but never got around to buying any for myself.

Also, do any of you guys have links to how to make myself some rutes? I liked playing with those, but can't dish out the $20 for a pair when I know I could make them for <$5.

ludvista29 11-22-2006 05:45 PM

I want those things, but I know I'm not going to get them all, I just have a bunch of things because idk what people can get or afford, I'd be happy with just 2 or 3 things off the list.

Aaron 11-22-2006 05:47 PM

I made rutes out of Barbeque squewers. Not the thin type, the thick type. Bundle heaps together and put rubber bands around them, then melt wax over the end to seal it and put tape over it to keep it from rubbing off.

We_Love_Lime 11-22-2006 05:49 PM

Rutes suck.
The Vic Firth ones are horrible.
The Vater ones are crap too. (Or the equivelent at least)

Grab the Blasticks, they are better, last forever and not as expensive.

S'why you make your own to the size of your hand.
edit: or tala-wands, i love those things. great feel. top work smith.

We_Love_Lime 11-22-2006 05:52 PM

Your probably right.
Do those aluminum ones get cold?
Like if your playing outside?
Or if you acidently drop them in your freezer?

That must be weird.

Aaron 11-22-2006 05:52 PM

They warm up to your hand after a minute. I like that of them.

The problem with the store that I go to 95% of the time is, they're really low on drum equipment. They've got guitars covering 90% of the wall and a bunch of racks, then they've got a drum corner with a rack of sticks, 15 cymbals, a couple accessories, and 1 kit set up (that you can't play unless you're looking to buy). I'd have to order them in for sure, and it takes a long time ordering through them, as I learned with my Hardimons.

I guess I can just stop by the grocery store on my trip around town knocking things off my to-do list. If they turn out bad, I'll put some thought into ordering in the Blasticks.

So how exactly would I do the "handles" of them then? Tape? What did you mean by wax Aaron?

Aaron 11-22-2006 06:04 PM

Well with the squewers there are pointy ends, bunch them together with all of them pointing one way. you melt candle wax over the that end of them till it forms a big hunk of it covering the end. This keeps them from splitting apart when your holding them. Wrapping gaffer tape over the end keeps the wax from heating up in your hand.

Berk 11-22-2006 06:06 PM

Well, I hate Photoshop.

Is it possible to get an image in like a banner type looking document?

Pauly 11-22-2006 06:23 PM

I love the power of the mind and your internal clock.

I had to drive my dad to the airport this morning at 5:30am. Last night I couldn't get to sleep til' about 1am. I was constantly thinking "I have to get up at 4:55am tomorrow." Usually I'd sleep constantly until 10 or 11. This morning, I woke up at 4:53am, 2 minutes before my alarm was to go off. Always happens when something important or fun is happening early the next day.

Anyone else experience this?

FL3P 11-22-2006 06:25 PM

I dont set my alarm. I always get up when I need to. I have to wake up at 5:30am every day which is not normal for me but I automatically wake at 5:30 almost on the dot no problem.

To josiah

You still flat out ignored my specific question of about the Jazz clip on your web page. It's looking like you're not going to answer and I can only suppose they are Aebersold play along jazz tracks and that you won't admit it.

Seafroggys 11-22-2006 06:27 PM

crap, I leave for work in 50 minutes and there's still 5-10 more posts to be made on page 1968. :(

Loser 11-22-2006 06:28 PM

This is totally page 2952 to me, so you're okay.

Seafroggys 11-22-2006 06:31 PM

yes but I kept the 30 post per page setting even after the forum default switched to 15 or whatever it was.

-:Vincent:- 11-22-2006 06:31 PM

I like your avatar Berk.

Loser 11-22-2006 06:31 PM

It's 20 per page now default.

Corkofski 11-22-2006 06:32 PM

Aaron 11-22-2006 06:36 PM
