| General | I'm a bit of a dull killjoy, and if you don't like it, bugger off!
Anyhoo, here's what I'm doing at any given moment:
Listening to Pre-1989 Music:

Thinkin' of my old pal:

I'm also doing some 'o this:
Being boring, sleeping, rockin' out, hanging out, milling about, being mellow, being geeky, weaving across the record store, writing long blog entries, learning to play my electric guitar, sitting here and there, doing homework, napping, yapping, walking to and fro, taking pictures of Walter, killing time, being fine, staying up late, strutting, interwebbing, hablando castellano, yelling at children, ranting against pigeons, falando um portugues muito ruim, keeping up with the news, reading about the past, reading about good-time music and generally being somewhat hip.
I also excell at being Mr. Goody Two-Shoes  | | Music | Fact:
Any "music" made by any band/artist that became "hip" after 1989, represents a post-89 genre or emerged after 1989 is absolute rubbish and isn't worth anyone's time.
