Electrocution 08-09-2005 12:08 PM

[QUOTE=Wanker]^^Good work!^

Leaving tommorow to Freeport, Maine-- home of the largest L.L. Bean store on earth. I'll be crunked on a 750ml of Bicardi for the next two days while I shop for a Spyderco knife and an L.L. Bean bike racing jersey.

Has anyone ever been to the store? I guess it has its own pond in the middle of the store to test out fly-fishing gear :eek:[/QUOTE]
I've been to the huge Cabela's store which is waaay more redneck.

I got my turntable for $2 at a garage sale, and it works quite well.

But doesn't it smell like cat pee?

Zappa 08-09-2005 12:14 PM

Nope.

[QUOTE=IhateUsernames]But doesn't it smell like cat pee?[/QUOTE]

No, I had some work done to it.

NPC Enterprises and Co.html specializes in cleaning up Cat Pee.

Is that store open 24 hrs. a day though?

We may just end up passing out in the tent deptartment.

Luxor 08-09-2005 12:16 PM

Oh, well that's good to know.

Yeah I know, do you seek assistance in ridding your goods of Cat Pee?

Probably :upset:

I was lying. Mine's as old as Christ. :upset:

Mail Order.

Dog 08-09-2005 12:53 PM

Yeah, well, it's not everday you get the oppurtunity to steal a record player that's been mentioned in the books of Matthew and Luke.

sweboy 08-09-2005 02:09 PM

Yeah, having connections with the local mafia organisation really helps when shopping for music equipment.

JonM 08-09-2005 02:14 PM

Yeah, the Guitar Center guys are too stoned to remember to pay their protection. It ends up biting em in the a[size=2]s[/size]s sometimes.

tritonesub18 08-09-2005 03:49 PM

woohoo new cable for me!!!!!

biografiend 08-09-2005 03:55 PM

Band camp began today. It was better than I expected, even though we had to march in 97 degree heat and my neck and back hurt.

leiferikson 08-09-2005 04:01 PM

Me and a couple of friends bought a vinyl record today and cut pieces out of it like a pizza and stuck them on top of another record. The end result was kinda interesting and sounded like something you'd hear in between songs on a post-rock band's side project. Is this a known practice? Apparently there is some dude on mtv in america who does something like it but I havent heard of anyone else doing it. I wouldnt be surprised if its relatively normal though.

To JonM, I showed my band all the info you gave me and we all agreed that its the way to go and that you now stand in line to recieve 2% of our career earnings.

masada 08-09-2005 04:11 PM

Rockin' the new account name. :cool:

Zappa 08-09-2005 04:23 PM

So lately I've contemplated starting to write reviews again. The thing is, I try to focus my creativity into making music of my own right now, so I'm not sure if it's a good idea. I'm not sure. I finall got kicked off the top 15 list (which shouldn't have taken nearly as long as it did, considering I haven't written a review since we switched from CD Reviews sub-forum to sputnik).

Hmmm.

masada 08-09-2005 04:52 PM

Do whatever you want.

I work for a shop that is the only one that can give Guitar Center a run for their money :cool:

And two for me.

Sounds good. I'll give you my agent's cell, and you can work it out.

It's 404-IDONTHAVEANAGENT.

My upstairs computer is seriously on the fritz today, so I'm forced to use this account.

Happymeal 08-09-2005 06:31 PM

2nd day of driving school. Not too bad, though it is truly a pain to be sitting for 5 hours while spoiled rich kid behind me keeps on bragging pointlessly about his life in rich kid high school.

I think you should kill him. Then again, that's my answer for everything.

JonM 08-09-2005 07:29 PM

All the plans fell through. I guess I'm home for the night.

Well atleast you're in the school. 5 more months for me.

Nice new name EliJr.

I just did the longest post ever in NPC's thread. :-D

You have 5 more months of vacation? That is a lot.

I go back on Monday.

Can you guys check out my song?

snidget 08-09-2005 08:28 PM

uh...I think that's for driving school, 6S

Edit: unless that was a joke... but that's a pretty lame joke

No I was being serious. 5 months of driving school would still suck.

Zappa 08-09-2005 09:27 PM

I think I'm going to go ahead and start working on my debut Sputnik review tonight. I have to pick an album, though...

Zmev : It's totally pimpin' :cool:

Did ya'll know that it's an in-joke of the bands, about how they thought it was a combination of ZZ Top and Dinosaur Jr.? That's why it's "z" in [i]Trilogy[/i], too.

masada 08-09-2005 09:39 PM

Jr. for short :cool:

Your sister is a beauty when she's naked, like my kid.

I can't decide what to review. Someone look at my list and pick something for me.
