Here is a purple Hot Hot Heat.
I've been hoping your moping around the street again.
I've been tripping from sipping the dripping dirty water tap.
I've been poking a voodoo doll that you do not know I made.
Lyrics



It's terribly catchy, hip

and It Makes the Kids Dance



They're called hot hot heat and they are from canada and I believe they are on sub pop. Which is kind of sad because I was beginning to enjoy the whole faux indie thing and then this fun song comes from a real indie lable.


Why did the Indie Rawker cross the road?








Oh My Gawd, You still don't know?

Anyway, I hate them because they look so much like all the other indie rawkers (feel free to purpleize them joe) but I love them because they make the kids dance


In unrelated news, I rented the Animatrix Digital Video Disc and it totally kicks both of the two live-action matricies on the bottom. It was way trippy man, it totally blew my mind. Also I watched a whole lot of Kevin Smith commentry on the bonus Jay and SB SB dvd today.

We're going to Nevada!

more soon
I am not good at my job. I really shouldn't care. I have already worked for them for a week and a half, and I think that I have at least another two days to get my act together and start being good at my job before losing it. In that time I will have made a whole lot more money that I would have had I not had the job.

Still, I am not used to failure. I am so often so successful with things that I work towards.

One of the interview questions that I have encountered several times over the last year or so, as I have looked for jobs has been, "How do you deal with failure or major dissapointment?"

I have always maintained that I am good at putting things in to perspective. Not everything that I work towards is going to work out, but in the grand scheme of things, it isn't a very big deal. Further there is something to be gained from every failure.

Now I am trying to practice that in real life.

Tonight I sold $695 in play subscriptions. 2 orders, 4 sets of tickets. Two front row seats. This was more than $100 more then the next most successful seller. This earned me several high fives and a $10 bill at the end of the night. I need a non-profit guru to lead me to conviction that soliciting support for the arts is good and pure and how things should be. The arts can’t be exclusively covered by taxes. It could be that my ideal picture of Government doesn’t include burocracy for the arts because the arts are competently flourishing with the independent support of citizen groups. We studied this at the U in my comparative sociology class, I should check my notes but part of the definition of a vibrant, free democracy (or something appealing sounding like that) is strong, independent groups separate from the Government. and then I should use my powers to become...Steven Keeton from Family Ties.
