“The excitement of knowing that when school was over that day, I’d have brand new friends. I moved around a lot as a kid, and friends were hard to come by outside of school.”
But as Seth Green says in The Italian Job, “You should get on it... It’s a good train.”

I forgot to mention that a mix CD of mine alternatively contains this track; the details are as follows:
“UPDATE: DJ Morgoth on BOOTIE USA Tour in September: 18. Sept.: New York City 25. Sept.: Boston This is a song created by DJ Morgoth. I normally do not like posting other people’s work, but in this case, I believe it deserves to get all the attention it can. It’s a great mix that very little have heard. I’m not in it for views, I’m not in it for fame. GO CHECK OUT www.djmorgoth.com and SUPPORT the Author RIGHT NOW!”
I have not yet begun to fulfill my quota for disclaimers for today, like your girlfriend!

  1. I want to comment on the Places app on facebook. One of my friends (who is a mother of a young child...and by child, I mean 3 or 4, posted this as her status update):
    Okay, I was going to give an exact quote but she seems to have deleted it. Basically she said that it had just started and what it does is give the exact address of where you are when you log on. Then, after stating that parents should make sure their kids know about it, she went into how to disable it so it doesn't work on your computer.
    Not finding my home address anywhere on my profile or updates or anything, I looked it up and found that the user has to check facebook with an iPhone or some other mobil device with a touch screen.
    When I read that, I commented on her status about this information and asked her if her daughter has an iPhone. Her daughter doesn't.

    Congradulations on making it into the Next Big Improv Show by the way!
