We saw Stuart Little 2 with G last night. Not that great of a movie but it was good for a kid and it got a conversation started about lying and stealing with him so all in all not a bad deal.

The weekend was good. C and I got to see Jars of Clay and Delirious? in concert. Excellent shows by excellent bands at an outdoor venue, and the weather couldn’t have been better.

Writing for the record is coming along nicely. Again, information will be slowly leaked to string you along until the release date 🙂

OK, it’s official now. “We” are going to be making an album. Writing started a while ago but we’re actually going to step on the gas a bit and start churning out some good material since there is something of a deadline coming up. I’ll be sharing more details in the future since I don’t want to give it all away now but to start with…if you liked “Dick Buttons”, you’ll like this record. We will probably sell it on-line so you can get your copy that way if you don’t see us regularly. More to come…

I’ve seen 3 movies in the last 2 days. Here are my 1 sentence reviews:

• Windtalkers: Nice story but the show didn’t know whether it wanted to be a drama, documentary, or action flick.
• Gone in 60 seconds: Nice light-hearted heist movie with a quasi-moral lesson and decent car chases.
• The Fast and the Furious: Point Break with street racing in place of surfing.

New song: Deja Vu. Lyrics to come soon…

Tell me what you think.

My cousin came over last night and helped me record a new version of Ode to Dick Buttons. Hope you like this one better otherwise it was all a loss.

I haven’t written anything in a few days because I’ve been too busy producing this silly song. It’s called Ode to Dick Buttons. I think you’ll like it, it’s about a 5 minute download on a dial-up. I’ll have the lyrics up shortly (read: a couple of days).

In other news, we scheduled a carpet installer for tomorrow but since the carpet is taking about 3 times longer to deliver than M’nards promised, we have to reschedule and cause the installer a lot of pain and wait longer for the basement to be done. Nuts!

We watched a really silly movie last night. Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. I couldn’t figure out why Nicolas Cage’s accent was so bad but a lot of the movie didn’t seem to make sense. Like the portrayal of Cage’s character as the idealistic Italian captain teaching a German captain about coming to the aid of the oppressed. What is that all about? At first I thought it was going to be an interesting movie that gave the Germans more than one dimension but by the end of the movie that didn’t really happen either. Almost, but not quite.

Take a close listen, you might never hear an arrangement of Joy to The World like this again!
