12 years later…

by josh on June 23rd, 2009

so i hung out with an old high school friend this weekend. i found out he was out here about a year ago, but unfortunately i had just missed him at the time. he was off to DC for a new job. well, one shit ass economy and a lay off later….he’s back out in LA. so we got together over the weekend for a BBQ in honor of a friend of his that is moving back to missouri.

needless to say it was great to finally find someone out here on a bit of a familiar ground. i literally hadn’t seen him for 12 years or so, but you couldn’t tell by the end of the night. even better were his other friends that came out. i don’t meet that many ppl out here that don’t generally suck deep down, so it was refreshing to mingle amongst some of the better souls LA has to offer. instead of compromising my caring….i found myself genuinely surround by ppl that were not only just chill…..but interesting to boot.

see, some of them are post grad USC med students. so we hung out with a neurosurgeon, a general physician, and my buddy already has his doctrine in micro biology (or something). yikes…..but the neurosurgeon also is a musician, and this dude who’s BBQ it was….is a musician as well. so the night turned into us drinking like there was no tomorrow while listening to the 2 musically talented ones jam on a guitar.

was refreshing to get out and actually not have to pretend in front of the company i was around.

new year opera.

i am not exactly sure why….but i find myself listening to a lot of pavarotti lately….

here:

which probably means i should either be in the mafia, or am just a big fat homo….

i can’t help hearing just how cinematically perfect this stuff is though.  duh, it’s from operas……but beyond that.  it could treat a scene like corn cobbed salted butter.  perfect and juicy.  stay tuned for the video test…..heh.

and happy 2009 or whatever.

happy meals of the future!

in a little hidden section of wired.com (-link-), they are having a photoshop contest. the topic this month is “happy meals of the future”. so they want people to submit photoshopped images to reflect this idea.

we’ve had a pretty slow week….so i quick threw this together to submit to the site:
