Demo Album in the Works







Summer is here at last! I finally have time to post and stuff! By stuff, I refer to beach-going, horizon expanding, shark taming, wood sharpening, jell-o sculpting, explosive making, kidney losing, tumor farming, and of course, doing stuff with friends.
Doing stuff means doing nothing at all, and doing nothing means doing something awesome and retarded. One night, I was at MB (Nick)'s place, doing nothing, when we suddenly realized that neither of us could play the guitar/sing. So we decided cut a demo. Neither of us had any idea at all how do use a guitar, so it was promptly chucked out the window into the windshield of a moving car that reportedly caught on fire and killed three children before exploding and almost demolishing a house.
After laying low for a few years, we went back to Nick's place and started narrating our stream of thought into the microphone. Nick tried to transcribe my incoherent rambling until he had written a song. It made no sense at all.
The first song was called "Too much Liquor (under the sun, Tuscan sun, magic moon attack (quite on crack))", and it was entirely vocals. I can bearly remember what the lyrics were, but MB should post them shortly, along with the recording we made.
Today, I wrote another song, one that actually rhymed. It still made absolutely no sense at all. Which was intentional. Here is what I have so far:

Lots of Things (all together at once)

Echoing bookshelves
Driving me sane.
Four hundred dollars
just look at my chain.
I haven't forgotten
oh wait, yes I did.
Three ants playing soccer
on the rock and roll grid.

~Chorus~
Lots of things!
Altogether at once!
Once!
Once!

Like a hundred pianos
having spiders for lunch!
Lunch!
Lunch!

I wrote a whole book,
but it fell in the ocean.
My pubescent voice
is perpetually broken!
My toys are all hidden
underneath the garage.
Made a porcelain shovel
and I Threw it
at my teacher's collage!
(music stops)
(Nick:)
At that point he realized-
IT WAS JUST A MIRAGE!!
(Me:)
MIRAGE!
(Nick:)
MIRAGE!
(echo)
(aside)
Seriously, nothing rhymes with garage.
I kinda wrote my self into a corner their
(laughter)

What a horrible waste of time. Too bad I'll be working on it in Fruity Loops (a music making program, for those less educated in the field of Electronic music) for the next week and a half. Expect to see a final version and to hear the song once we produce it and record it.

DEATHCHAIR: Streets of Vendetta



There is an enormous post on the Mr. McCoy Fan Fiction page. This massive post entails some (concrete) details behind our brainstorming of MMCFF. Also something that probably shouldn't have been posted in that section but was anyways was the unfinished rpg, DEATHCHAIR: Streets of Vendetta. Regardless of whether its posted in the right place or not, It's totally sweet, and you should totally download it.

Success!

Wewt!
Invalid password and me have worked on putting a new page up and I'm happy to say that it's up with minimal effort. Credits to Invalid for the sweet ass logo. Actually he did the logo for the homepage too, so snaps. *snaps* It was surprisingly easier than I'd expected. It's the Mr McCoy Fan Fiction section, so we're going to put things related to the Mr. McCoy Fan Fiction in it's bowels. Hopefully I will put the first few pages together by this weekend so we can get that section Operational.

Yarken Tuffles!

Over the weekend I'm going to see if I can basically add pages to our website. Meaning that I'm going to see whether I can make Parking Structure Planet have multiple sections. What I'm tryin to say is that there'll be a section for Mr. McCoy fanfiction stuff, maybe another section about cool things we find on the internet, maybe one for general updates, I'm not sure. I'm just going to see if we can take advantage of the way Blogger works so we can have more than one page that looks like the homepage.
I'll see what happens.

Telephone Experimentation Results in Echo Laser Technology


The Morning Bell and I were attempting to conduct a PC to PC call via Yahoo! Messenger the other night, but Morning Bell doesn't have a Microphone anymore. So we devised an awesome setup that yielded great results

Since Morning Bell has no mic, I was still able to talk to him over Y! Messenger, but he could not speak back. I called him on his home phone and we both proceeded to put each other on speaker. I pointed the speaker end of my telephone to my microphone, so whatever he said on the telephone was also audiated to his computer via Y! Messenger. By putting his telephone near his computer speaker, his own voice, though delayed slightly, was conveyed in a loop, from his phone to my phone to my mic to his speakers to his phone to my phone to my mic to his speaker to his phone. Still with me?

Okay, I put my iPod Microphone (a third-party accessory I had previously purchased) under the phone so I could record the whole ordeal, and the Results can be viewed either at the top link or the bottom.

NOTE! You might want to adjust your speakers to an appropriate level, there is some pretty intense screeching.

ECHO LASER! (it's the same as the one above)

Trapped In Hanukkah


Look. I'm virtually standing on top of a Giant Menorah.
My friends convinced my to start playing Maple Story again, so today I downloaded the game and logged back in to Scania. So when I logged off a year and a half ago, apparently it was Christmas time and I went to the brand new Hanukkah map to celebrate my last day of gameplay.
And now I'm fucking trapped on this single map, all alone, unable to talk to anyone.
Trapped in Hanukkah : Day 1.
It's cold. As I place my aluminum baseball bat on the ground next to the giant menorah, I find myself more and more alone. I hear nothing but megaphones from players with way too much money. They sound so close, yet so far off. I have enough supplies to last a few days, but I don't think I can stand another look at the Jew next to the wheelbarrow. Seacrest out.

Fighting Bees with Fire


These guys just just won the Nobel Peace Prize. In my heart. Possibly the best idea ever since that time some kid at my high school panicked and pulled the fire alarm because a kid threw a deck of playing cards into the air. Just think about that for a second. Here is my imagined dialog that proceeded this incident:

"How goes it, my friend?"
"Very nice indeed, thank you for asking!"
"What would you like to do today, my friend?"
"Why, today seems like a great day to throw exact-o knives at the ceiling, but I though we could- GET DOWN! HE HAS FUCKING PLAYING CARDS! HOLY SHIT!"

The students scramble under their desks and shriek in peril as the perpetrator threatens to kill every one of them with his cards. This dibshit pulls the fire alarm. We get out of school at 10:30. PTA has a meeting. The child gets suspended.

Alright...(Turn it up now)

So basically, I can't do anything today because Invalid Password is swamped with homework. He's the one with the files we were gonna try and put up today.
Anyways...

I'll see if I can get something moderately entertaining up...

invalid password's page. He describes the Mr. McCoy fanfiction more aptly then I ever could.

Welcome

After a dramatic phone conversation with invalid password involving a microphone, speaker phone, and a stereo...phone... we have come up with another recording of an especially echoey brainstorm.
If only I could figure out how the fuck-and-a-half to get them online.
Totally forgot, let me introduce:
INVALID PASSWORD!

He's totally cool. And Abstract. And he's got hot pics, I think...
Also there's this project were working on...
Basically we were sitting around with another one of our friends, and we came up with this idea to make up really creepy works of fan fiction about our teacher, Mr.McCoy, and then send it to him anonymously! We plan to make the fan fiction a complete farce. A really entertaining farce!! Heres a quick sketch of our idea of the look on his face when he gets the email:

O_O

lol, O yea.
And so we'll be posting that in addition to the audio for the brainstorming sessions sometimes soon.

Welcome to the land of Nicotine and Gravy, Milk and Honey, and Hollywood Freaks

Welcome to the internets.
I am not on any sort of hallucinogenic drugs. Anything and everything I write on this page is entirely the product my imagination, not the inspiration of a house full of ants, bees, and static. I cannot find my way out of this room. There are no doors and no ceiling. But there is a toilet. Unfortunately, it won't flush. Well, actually it does flush, but it flushes sand. And ketchup.
I hate Linkin Park. A lot. They broke my legs.
Mr. Miller sails away in 25 days.
Shut up, or I'm going to send you to the moon, painfully.
Mr. Miller sails away to the moon, painfully, in 25 days.

Eventually, I will post the audio recordings of our brainstorms for the Mr. McCoy fanfiction.
Some of that shit's pretty darn dope (if you know what I mean).

5/20/07 PC OPTIMIZATION!!!

I've had to use mouse keys because my mother took my mouse away for ditching school. She assumes you can't use a computer without a mouse. How cute. Obviously you can, though it's inconvenience is indubitable. So I asked her if I could get my mouse back if I tuned up her PC and made it go super fast. She said no, but I decided to do it anyway for practice.

And the practice I did get. I found a ton and a half of new software that makes your computer go much faster than it should, I'm positive my mom's computer goes faster than mine now. Now I'm going to update the way I thought a computer should be updated. I can't wait to load shit really fast! =D

All the programs I use for PC maintenance are free, relatively easy to use, and virus-free!
Here are some of my favorite maintenance programs:

EasyCleaner: I found out about this one just today, and OMG this so compiles so many excellent features from so many programs into one! That's not even the good part! Every single feature is useful! My favorite is the unnecessary file deleter. It got rid of 400 MB of unnecessary files! My computer is running faster than the day I bought it!
http://personal.inet.fi/business/toniarts/ecleane.htm

Mozilla Firefox: I've used it before, but when I tried version 2.0 I got soaked. everything about it looks nicer and is upgraded in some way from the old version. I've been a big IE fan but now I'm switching, because quite frankly I think firefox performs better in every aspect of browsing.
http://www.mozilla.org/

Eusing Registry Cleaner: An excellent free tool. EasyCleaner has a registry cleaner built in, though it pales in comparison to this. The first time I ran the prog I fixed over 600 entries with my system. Though not a significant performance upgrade, I love to know I've just fixed over 600 errors.
http://www.eusing.com/free_registry_cleaner/registry_cleaner.htm

Avira AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic: Not the best virus protection in the world, but it does its job effectively.I have Norton now but when I had this a few years ago it found mountains of viruses I'd obtained over p2p connections. When anyone asks my to make they're computer go faster, and they have antivirus software, this in one of the first thing on my list to install. If you don't have any virus protection software, then get this and scan your hard drive right now.

5/20/07 relatively bored

I've just began my adventure into blogging... Because I have nothing better to do...

Nice...
