I’ve known about this site for a couple of months now but I’ve been seeing links to various projects all over the place this week. It’s a website where you can start a project and get people to back you on it. You set a goal and if it isn’t met, it’s over and none…
that’s what I’m talkin about.

Maturity, show some:
The obvious reaction to a gargantuan oil spill in the gulf is harsh criticism toward BP and yes, maybe they’re not doing literally everything in their power to clean it up and no I’m not necessarily trying to defend them, but all of you who point fingers and hastily say “they suck” and move on with your day are ignorant - does your life not desperately depend on the...
Tumblr.
Tumblr and it’s community really make me feel like an outcast. (Keenan’s and my laborious efforts with PFW aren’t helping things.) I couldn’t even donate a tumblr layout to the site; not hipster enough? Bah, who needs ya.

"Clients From Hell" literally does not get old.
clientsfromhell:
Client: “Let me ask you something. How hard would it be to have a bunch of shapes, like rectangles, squares, other polygons, go into a perfect circle”
Me: “You mean to have a rectangle transforming into a circle?”
Client: “No. All different shapes, flowing into a circle.”
Me: “Contained in the circle?”
Client: “Flowing into it. All different shapes, into perfect… symmetry.”

Don't ever say rock 'n roll
So let’s see…I’ve abandoned the blog sufficiently long that I can actually update and offer you something to read that you might not know already. Things are wrapping up on the Michael Alvarado Project (a marathon of work culminating into album artwork, a website, and a new myspace for this future-star). PFW has a bunch of new stuff up which you should check out if your iTunes...

Attention Music Promoters.
Please do not email me saying that your client is “invading” Philadelphia next week. I swear the word “invade” is used synonymously in exchange for “performing in” and it makes you sound like an idiot. The only band that invades is the Beatles so please stop trying to impress me with your shock-value words and just simply tell me, humbly, about the band you...

Top 5 Reasons You Don't Need Microsoft
I’ve taken the time here to outline my thoughts and frustrations toward Windows and Microsoft in general for their abundantly clear message that “We’re the answer to all your computer problems.” False. I’m not a know-it-all: I don’t proclaim to know everything there is to know about Msoft or any of the companies mentioned below. I am purely taking a look at my...

aeautrey:
Thanks to the 50/90 challenge this past summer I had the chance to collaborate with the singer/songwriter behind this project. Here’s his/their EP and it’s pretty great stuff. Solid musicianship throughout.
he also writes for indie music blog praiseforwallflower which I’m pretty sure has a tumblr. definitely worth checking out.

1.5 (buzz light) years
Non-significant, uneventful day on a very important date: the date of my one and a halfer w/ Kristen which I unfortunately spent alone, writing markup. Not ideal but this is just to say I’m happy that I met, know, and love you.
