you may or may not know, or care for that matter, but i am a technology geek. i visit engadget, gizmodo, boy genius report, phone scoop, etc more often than i care to admit. gadgets are my second addiction and they could be my first if i could actually afford them. i am forced to live vicariously through the brief descriptions and unboxings that grace their pages. sigh! as it turns out not all hope is lost in my quest to get my hands on the latest and greatest. somehow through the vastness of the internets, sprint happened to find mine and offered me a chance to participate in their ambassador program. so, they sent me the samsung upstage - part phone, part mp3 player and have provided me with 6 months of unlimited voice and data. at this point, i am really torn but i will provide a decent review in a few weeks after i have gotten past the learning curve.

lily allen the bj queen? sure why not?

i am approaching the new queens of the stone age, era vulgaris, with a controlled enthusiasm mostly due in fact that i am not a fan of lullabies to paralyze. it was just way to hit or miss for my liking. here’s hoping to a return to form.

here are the queens playing @ the bizzare festival in 2001.

1. precious and grace

2. regular john

3. quick and to the pointless

4. the lost art of keeping a secret

5. go with the flow

6. i think i lost my headache

7. avon

8. tension head

9. song for the deaf

10. walkin on the sidewalks

11. feel good hit of the summer

some studio video during the making of era vulgaris

you may or may not ignored the new tab up there labeled “survey, please.” if you have 10 - 15 minutes to spare please do go through the motions for me. will ya? i mean it probably wont mean much in the long run, but it couldnt hurt or so they tell me. love ya!
