also max told me about an awesome band. It’s made up of 5 14/15 year old British kids who are amazing. Everything i love about music is present and accounted for. It’s like they figured out how to take all the best parts of what I think are the best bands and mixed them together in the perfect combination.

and to top all of this awesome off, for dinner tonight I get pizza pretzels we got from whole foods.

speaking of which, I have decided to start a hydroponics organic farm in a warehouse or something. It’s going to be awesome. And to start so I can perfect everything for a larger scale joe and lenny and max agreed to let me use garage space to set up a small vegetable farm. I’m thinking tomatoes and cucumber, I’m nut sure yet. but whichever vegetables I choose I’ll be starting a huge step towards what I want to do and I’ll get to see some of my best friends more often then I do now. Win, win, win.

and as a parting gift as I leave you tonight, here is a funny post from 4chan.

I’ve played it at Kyle’s. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that game. I have yet to play anything beyond the basic brawling of 4 characters on the screen, but there isn’t much more that I need to see. Everything I hoped for has become real and that makes me so happy. Even characters I thought were going to be a waste of space (Diddy Kong) are fun to use. The whole game is amazing.

Even the worst character EVER, Wario, is fun to use on some level. I mean, he’s annoying to even see on the screen, and he moves around like a tank over choppy water, but it works some how, on some strange level, this blemish is beautiful, like Cindy’s mole or the librarian’s bun.

I’ve been trying to work out my budget over the next few months, but due to about a million road blocks and torturous menacing turns of events, I am on a very tight budget until May. I’m moving into a new house and I’m changing jobs at just the right moment to miss a pay period almost entirely. That means I’m on a budget of about $150 a month to pay for food and fun as well as other stuff for my girlfriend and good times with friends.

Basically, I need to wait for my tax return to get Smash Brothers. I figure I’ll buy that and a PS3. Why not a 360? Let me sum it up in two words for you, Failure Rate. Oh and HD-DVD is dead. There’s another reason.

But I digress. Day 4 is coming to an end, and if I can just hold on until next month, I might be able to get the game. Pray for me.

I just paid my bills and I have $150 to my name as of today. Now, I don’t know if I’m supposed to pay my grandmother in advance for the first month’s rent, or if I’m going to get saved by the kindness of her heart or what, but whatever happens, I’m definitely screwed during the move in.

I know what you might be thinking, Tom. You’re thinking, why is it that I said i was only going to talk about video games, and now i’m talking about money and moving. Well, it’s simple really. On top of the whole rent and moving expenses, i need to worry about getting my hands on a copy of Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

The game comes out this weekend and it’s all kyle and I have been talking about…kinda, and we’re bother super stoked to get our hands on it. The problem today is that I have no idea if i have or don’t have the money to get it. My girlfriend said she’d loan me money if I needed it…but I don’t want to be that boyfriend. But then again, it is Brawl, and I hardly ever treat myself.

The bottom line is thus: I need to get that game. I need to. So, I guess I’m going to…even if I have to kill a man.   Here are a list of people I might kill to get this game:

Miss America

Mr. Universe

The bank

Mostly, I’m looking forward to playing as Pitt and Bowser. I’ll be pwning with pitt.

Too bad I can’t play as hannah montana. I’m hurtin’ for hannah.

Well, I could have borrowed a dollar, but seriously, I don’t like borrowing money. Borrowing money is like giving someone a free ticket to ask you for money later. “Remember that dollar you owe me?” “How’s about you buy me this and we’ll call it even.” I hate this. I hate this mainly because I don’t carry money on my person ever. So, when someone asks me for the money, or to spot them, I know i’m going to have to end up looking like a poor idiot who doesn’t want to admit that technology hasn’t replaced paper money and metal coin yet.

(Side note: I hear the USA is planning on stopping production of pennies. This would have been a smart idea, like…i don’t know, forty years ago. Today though, we’re all moving to digital money, and while it’s a frightening thought, metal and paper will soon not be anywhere in our currency.)

Anyway, my other option was to ask someone for money, just flat out, but I’m not a bum, so scratch that idea.

So, while I was thinking about stealing it, or starting a tab at our cyber cafe, I came up with something quiet remarkable. I approached a coworker and asked her a simple question that would change my life forever.

“Can I forever borrow a dollar?”

And I never have to pay her back.

(Update: It has now worked 2 times. I think people just think it’s funny, so they play along. I say that’s fine, so long as i get a dollar!) (I’ve also noticed that putting a “!” at the end of one-liners or punch lines kills the joke like none other.)
