    #mr. bingley

    Since iDrink.com never bothered to post the submission:

    Mr. Bingley

    1. Gather your ingredients:

      • 2 measures grapefruit gin (original mix had Seagram’s but whatever)
      • 1 measure vodka (cheap vodka is fine since it ought to be washed out by the gin here anyway)
      • 1 can Coke (though any “cola” beverage will do)
      • a citrus garnish (original used a lime — don’t ask…)
    2. Pour the vodka and gin into a largish plastic cup (in that order). Do not stir.
    3. Drop the citrus garnish wedge into the bottom of the cup.
    4. Build the Coke on top.
    5. Add ice if desired.
    6. Muddle.
    7. Put in the taped copy of Pride & Prejudice instead of reading it like you were supposed to be doing for the past 3 weeks.

    #Chet & The Devil

    I used to work with this guy Justin Atherton who had a comic he did with another guy: “Chet & The Devil” — funny funny shit.

    All it takes is two panels:

    #near death experience

    Perhaps the title over states the case a little bit but I’ll admit that I nearly died of panic earlier while trying to dig up a copy (ANY copy) of a track I did about 3 years ago. Called “Duskdown”, it’s one of the few that I’m actually proud to say “I wrote that” about w/ a true-to-life smile.

    It seemed odd to me that I didn’t already have it in iTunes. But what seemed even odder to me was that I couldn’t find a copy anywhere on my hard drive. Not the original loops and samples. Not a rough-cut .wav or .mp3. Nothing. Not quite panicked, I started looking through old back-up CD-Rs. Nothing. Starting to panic, I looked through the 100+ CD wallet things where we keep all of our store-bought and otherwise burned CDs. Nothing there either. Found a couple w/ the familiar “P(R)o-Mo” label on them but none that contained the “Duskdown” track. Starting to freak out at this point, I moved on to the basement where we’ve got the plastic tubs for “deep storage” of the assorted CD cases and other items that really have no place in an uncluttered living room. Sure enough, I found a few more “P(R)o-Mo” labeled CD-Rs and so I dragged those upstairs to where I could pop them in and listen.

    With a lot of good fortune, I found one.

    Now to make sure it doesn’t get lost again:
