Lets Get under the covers... (me vs. the hits vs. the rest)

the amount of covers dropping these days is ridiculous, it was before a cover would be awesome to hear a show or funny if band covered a song that was uncharacteristic of there style. Now though everyone wants to make it big like the Maine or alien ant farm, I will say it's a great way to get your foot in the door but it can be played out fast. It’s funny in your friend’s car to hear red car wire's version of "I kissed a girl." but I bet you don't listen to them after that, nor should you. They are thoroughly unremarkable. Anyway here’s a list of the hottest songs from different bands, or something like that.

Framing Hanley lollipop
first off the video for this song is like 6 minutes long, which is three minutes longer than the lil Wayne version, it has a plot involving a guy and a girl, and it’s stupid. This song sounds like it's just a different person singing the vocals. I fail to see why this band is popular. But it does answer the question ”what if something were slightly different then the way it already was?"... Exactly.

Lily Allen Womanizer
I love lily Allen, her first album alright still was one of my top albums the year. However she has taken her sweet time coming out with this new album, luckily her new album drops in a few weeks and the promotion machine has her out and about. in her spare time though she managed to record this cover of another returning pop sensation ms. Britney spears, now I’m not crazy about Britney’s song womanizer but it is catchy, so for everyone out there who is too cool to admit to liking Britney lily Allen is comfortable place for you to be. Lily brings and acoustic guitar and an accent to the mix on his cover and that’s all I need because I love it.

Chase the Light Hot N Cold
ZOMG! Katy Perry, I like Katy Perry she has allot going for her tight now, she's made all the right friends, a Madonna endorsement as well as an album that’s catchy as hell and if you enjoy her second single with the retarded as hell video, then check out this chase the light the cover of "Hot N Cold"

Katy Perry Electric Feel
Katy Perry is way to cool to be doing pop covers, she shows the way her musical tastes go when she covers MGMT's electric feel. this is a song that really shows her range as a singer, she has slower songs on her album "one of the boys" but none of them really compare to how somber she is in this jazzy soulful MGMT original that topped the indie charts this year

Akon The take over, the breaks over
man am I not feeling the new Akon CD, also I’m tired of his konvict sound effect, regardless of this last year when fall out boy's infinity on high was all the rage with the kids, Akon an fall out boys Patrick stump had a back and forth cover off, eventually while overseas in the UK Akon recorded this cover of fall out boy's "the takeover the breaks over" it's really quite excellent

Fall out Boy Don't matter
in response to the above song fall out boy recorded akon's hit single don't matter, fall out boy is no stranger to covers, recently Patrick stump blew me away with his cover of the lackluster kanye west single love lockdown, in the past fall out boy have paid homage to other bands and songs alike just because, bands like joy division, Michael Jackson, the police, nightmare before Christmas, gorilla biscuits and one of my favorite bands jawbreaker. I cannot express the amount of appreciation I have for Patrick stump, it's a strong biased I mean I feel some fall out boy's newer stuff is not as good as their older stuff, but honestly this man could sing the dictionary and I’d buy it. just saying'

All Time Low Time To break up
man, I like all time low.... but this is not a good cover, it's poorly recorded it's monotonous and doesn't have the contrast that blink 182 brought to the table. it's still great song but seeing as the topic of discussion is cover songs, all time low has very little to do with that. blink 182 must be rolling over in their graves...err... careers graves... mark hoppus excluded

Get cape, Wear Cape, Fly D.A.N.C.E.
it is very difficult to cover a techno song, especially one I feel is so dependent on a gimmick like kids singing to a synthed out beat, but here we are. I’ve heard very little from "get cape..." before this he has had a few songs reach America to a noticeable degree but this is the first one I remember, the main appeal of this is if you like justice check this out it's awesome

The Honorary Title- No One
I like the honorary tile quite a bit, his tendency to do low quality recording of himself on acoustic guitar are his trademark. I’m iffy on this Alicia keys cover though, I’m not crazy about the original, I think it drags and then when I get into it, it's over. her pacing is off on this version it's the opposite I start out hating it, thinking he's not right for a song like this, then he gets that raw power in his voice to the point where it cracks that I love so much and I remember why I like him in the first place back in the day, because he uses momentum in his music the longer it goes the stronger her gets

the Maine I wanna love you
the Maine are a decent band their this months mtv discover and download for the first single that’s their own in "everything I ask for" but THIS is what got them noticed across "the scene" this and previously doing a cover of love in the club under the name of the summer set. a good band with the range to pull off a cover with out it being silly plus as we learned earlier akon's music translates to other formats really well

The Kooks young folks
this bowie influenced brit band are a cover machine showing love for radiohead and coldplay alike this band wants to be a major deal on small scale, however in my opinion their best cover is of the unfortunate one it wonder of peter, Bjorn and john (whistling not included)...a song you’ll know because.. a.) your awesome b.) You listened to the radio in the last year c.)You watch gray’s anatomy or you just neglected to live under a rock in the past year. Either way it's "the whistling song" if you’re not on a first name(x3) basis with peter Bjorn and john. one way or another check out an interesting take on the song by the kooks, more than likely Britain’s next big lil thing

Ben Folds Bitches Ain't shit
if you don't know Ben fold there’s a good chance your in the wrong place, but Ben folds achieved fame with Ben folds five with singles like brick and army and to a lesser extent song for the dumped, more recently Ben has launched a successful solo career ....even more recently he released the album "way to normal" to great success. if this is news to you check out the majority of what this man has done... but first check out this unorthodox cover of the dr. dre classic "bitches Ain’t shit"

Sea of treachery misery business
you see sea of treachery is a hardcore band where as paramore is not. That is the appeal of this song. I will say it is a particularly good hardcore song, full of double bass and a good screamer. still though I can't help but feel that this was joke to sea of treachery, either way Hailey approved it and sea of treachery have done two national tours since this was relevant...good for them

Kaiser chiefs Time to pretend
I like this version of the MGMT original because they take allot of the tech out of it, it's a good song but this feels more natural ESPECIALLY the decision to replace the main synth in the song with what appears to be a flute or at the very least a lighter synth. to describe would be MGMT lite...which I find appealing

Ryan Adams Times like these
Adams recorded this in the bbc studios while overseas, an admitted fan of the foo fighters Adams really does justice to a really great song, almost to the point where you have to ask if maybe Dave grohl was doing something wrong, on all accounts this is a great song

Between the buried and me bicycle race
I really have issues trying to figure out how Between the buried and me want me to feel about them, they change drastically from album to album. my favorite being "the anatomy of" bicycle is a great queen song one of my favorites, and it was torn apart by the cover on the "official" queen tribute CD...either way this one does it right, so why deal with the rest when you can have the best

the magic numbers crazy in love
I love the magic numbers, I imagine a less annoying moldy peaches, all the romance with out the tone deaf pitch(just kidding, love you kimya) but this beyonce song cause to her to blow up when she hit the scene after the destiny's child break up, unfortunately it did not have the same affect on the magic numbers...it is great though, and romantic. so, throw up the roc and check out crazy in love by the magic numbers

alien ant farm smooth criminal
you know I never thought to question how exactly a new band like these guys got the rights to cover a Michael Jackson song, none the less it's their most successful song to date(sorry movies...)
it's a unique cover, I really think that more people are recognize this version than the MJ Original, this song was son ANThology which was I think the first CD I really liked all the way through, special memories like that are great, too bad their third CD up in the attic was a bore, tragic

say anything got your money

i wasn't really surprised to find that this cover was as good as it was, in this case it's really more a parody, but still to hear Bemis say things like "yo if Bemis wants his money, just give him his money" i also really appreciate that he changed any time ODB refered to himself by using his own name. this of off of the popular punk goes series from fearless records, covers are their greatest export... i'm kidding, actually sugarcult started on fearless so hows that for fame, not much

cartel wonderwall

this was an ambitious move by cartel, this one of those songs that so many people love it's almost dangerous to cover it, not to mention the Gallagher brothers being complete twats. i like this version though, the best parts of the song all shine through, it's a good cover and it's really great not to hear your friend on rock band be the one doing it...for once

cascada truly madly deeply

remember cascada?no? she did everytime we touch...it souded like a DDR song but wasn't.. remember savage garden? neither does anybody else. check out this techno infused savage garden cover of truly madly deeply

Hit the lights hey jealousy

i freaking love the Gin blossoms. hey jealousy is such a great song... i also really liked the first hit the lights CD. this guy has a great voice. after that first CD the lead singer left the band.... but before he did they recorded this hey jealousy cover. it's kind of amazing

hot hot heat rehab

i used to think that the train wreck of a mess, Amy Winehouse was kind of pretty in a classic way. now she's just another racist cokehead diva... so thats fun. hot hot heat takes on her true to life song "rehab" it's alright not the best not the worst, interesting to hear other people do this song.(an intresting note about this, it had me spell check "Winehouse" did you mean whorehouse? haha)

head automatica pulling mussels from a shell

dude squeeze is awesome and so is head automatica, so when they take on the early 90's brittish hit, it's really just great. Palumbo's voice really does this song justice and the redone backtracking remind why i loved squeeze to begin with

Hawthorne Heights Bullet with butterfly wings

before zeitgeist and billy corgan's itunes attack, the smashing pumpkins released music. even releasing a chart topping grunge album "melloncollie and the infinite sadness" one of the more popular songs in that CD was bullet with butterfly wings"(they say rat in a cage in it if that helps you difer from other grunge songs) hawthorne heights got big and carried on the macabre emo movemoent of my chemical romance and bayside, the kind of music that screams about slitting your throat so you won't be heartbroken over a girl. the styles sort of match up here as the range of hawethorne heights sort of works for a smashing pumpkins song

Gatsby's american dream just like heaven

i like the Gatsby's version better than the cure's, it feels more romantic and less whiny. but i also just prefer nick's voice to robert smith's

hellogoodbye weerd science

hellogoodby cover one the best oingo boingo songs, it would do Danny elfman proud

I think this illustrates my point on varying quality of covers. The truth is while it’s sometimes a great idea to work a cover into your library it’s dangerous because there’s always a chance you will get famous from that and people will know you as that “bitches ain’t shit guy” or so on. So be careful

I’m Brendan and therefore I’m awesome

A Holiday Guide to Christmas Music...(part one)

Post this Thursday(thanksgiving),it will be undeniably Christmastime, and all you naysayers and humbugs will have to bite your tongues till the the new year. Following that line it's time for Christmas music, the most decisive way to spread holiday cheer, i love holiday music because it can epic or romantic or funny or failing at being funny(that's squarely aimed at 12 pains of Christmas) or best yet nostalgic. Nostalgic for a simpler time in your life when shopping wasn't a priority and staying up an finishing your list for Santa was. i want to help you recapture those feelings

Anyway, I've begun work on my holiday seasonal mix which i have dubbed my "chris-mix." i tried Hanukkah jamz but it failed to roll off the tongue the same way. as their are lot of copycats out there this year, i have decided to work on my mix publicly and openly share my thought on holiday music I've been mulling over as I've mowed it over. That being said I'll be sharing my seasonal journey as i traverse the ups and downs of Christmas music i encounter and at the end I'll be sharing my mix with you to pass along to your friends and family as your own... i call it

A Holiday Guide to Christmas Music...(part one)

Brand new- oh holy night
i like brand new a lot... but i hate this song. i think oh holy night requires some expression which mr. Lacey does not exhibit. also some thing i really enjoyed about "deja entendu" doesn't carry over and just annoys me on this track. I'm talking about how you can hear him take deep breaths... it just sounds like he's bored... some parts are peaceful, but their are better versions of this song out there.

(anyone) baby, it's cold outside
probably my favorite seasonal song, it's dripping with romance in the most wholesome way you can be with out being obscene. If you don't know the song, it's about a guy trying to convince a girl not to leave following a date and the girl giving reasons to not stay. originally written by Frank Loesser back in 1944, as a duet for him and his wife, this song has a very old New York feel to it. kind of a metropolitan romantic style if that makes sense. the main issue i have with this song is that it's covered quite a few times now some good like Zooey Dechannel on the elf soundtrack, some bad like Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey and some just plain weird like the star trek yule tide orchestra. my favorite is actually by Skylana and Seth Roberts, it's cover that has a really true to self sound to it, in it's production or rather lack of it.

June- wonderful Christmastime
surprisingly not many covers of this song, well not THAT surprising as i feel McCartney's accent really made this song unique. still though June does it more justice than camp rock's Demi Lavoto does. I'm still not sure which tween sensation is going to have a huge holiday hit this year, probably some sort of Jonas brother. either way i feel the opening synthesized keyboard in the June version strong enough to be unique with out betraying the original.

Belle and Sebastian- O come, O come, Emmanuel
i struggled with this on because there are a few REALLY great versions of this song. Thrice's Dustin Kensrue as well as sixpence none the richer. B&S take it because you get a real religious feel out of their version. it's a downright sanctimonious experience... in a fun way

Low- Just Like Christmas
it's seems like good "new" Christmas songs are few and far between. but low do it right, so good in fact that snow patrol covered this song a couple years back on a California Christmas radio compilation, but as low wrote this song in the span of my lifetime, we won't acknowledge their version, which is decent. Either way this song is great because it's really poppy and understandable, it's somber without detracting from the "jolly" of the season. theres a warm feeling of holiday peace that you get from this song, especially in the snow at night

Eels- every thing's gonna be cool this Christmas
there are TWO really great Eels Christmas originals that i recommend, this is the first. this song is great to shake any holiday blues you might have really for any reason whatsoever. it's hard to focus on sadness when this song is on. I dare you not to smile when he says "baby Jesus, born to rock" this is Christmas party music at it's best.

... part one closes on an upbeat note, check out these songs and check back tomorrow for part two, curl up with someone you love by a warm fire, put on my mix and just enjoy each other's company, thats the best way to spend any holiday

also Merry holidays
Brendan

new(?) music 11/21

yeah so, lil late, still trying to get the hang of this, i really want these to stop being so few and far between, but you get a new music playlist this week so it's not all bad, this week i've been listening to lot of songs that sample other songs as well as covers, not all are great and some are just plain awful, still though they all caught my ear

T.I. - live your life(feat. Rhianna)
you've definitely heard this song, because this guy is a machine and he's got Rhianna backing him on this track.... also it samples O-Zone's Dragostea din Tei.
... the numa numa guy song, so thats fun, it's like 5 years irrelevant at this point and T.I. and weezer won't let me forget about this thing. still though nostalgia aside it's a catchy song with a really serious message, nothing i can really relate to...something about integrity in rap or whatever. but theres a message there i promise...either way just live your life, cause this will go away

Marnie stern- Don't stop believin'
marnie sterns from new york,so she sounds a bit like cat power,feist and karen o, still though i giver her credit for taking a song like don't stop believin' and adding to it, it actually sounds "not the same" not that there have been tons of covers of this song, it's just actually unique for a cover i can't say Journey would be pleased, but then again who the hell cares it's this or your friend doing on Rock band 2... I'll take this

You, Me, and Everyone We Know- Happy Birthday
no it's not a cover of happy birthday, this song is just a new song that i like, from a new band i like. so young and insane is the second CD this band has decided to give out for free, recently max bemis came out in support of this band, and even appeared on the finished version of the the albums first track "i can get back up" this album also had some work on by members of motion city soundtrack, and this song is just a really catchy song of of said cd

Rick Ross- sunglasses
there are other people on this track, but i have no idea who they are, it took me a while to figure which one "rick ross" was(if you don't know he did "everyday i'm hustlin'") but he sophomore cd still hustlin actually did stand out to me... it has about 3 tracks that sample older songs. this song samples my FAVORITE 80's hit Cory Hart's "sunglasses at night". which is kind of a really gay song with a cool beat, so it's win win, not bad song all and all, just weird

t-pain- superstar lady
this song is just name dropping, the idea is to compare all his "lady's" parts and actions to popular celebrity's. which makes for fun but really makes you laugh when you think of how little sense this song will make in 5 or 10 years, of the lies is party like a Hilton, sex like a Kardashian. still hough i really like T-pain, he's alot of fun he's never to serious and he gets along with everyone, he's a really quality producer, check out thr33 rings, i've listened to it quite bit this month

cruiserweight- balboa
crusierweight reminds me quite abit of Zolof the rock an roll destroyer, who i love. thats probably because they both came out california, have female vocalist's and only sing about happy things. balboa's a confident song, but whatever. i'm really happy to hear a female rock band thats not paramore these days, which is sad because i used to love Hayley Williams, she "that cute lil' punk rock spitfire from paramore" now i just think "oh god theres that twat from paramore singing about sexy vampires or blowing new found glory". in summery listen to crusierweight , don't see twilight or your a whore...to me at least

The Two tongues- crawl
speaking of max bemis(like 3 songs ago). he just got engaged yo someone from eisely just like taking back sunday...more importantly, in February he and Chris Conley will be releasing a cd under there side project the two tongues. so if you lie saves the day and/or say anything check out the first track to be released from the two tongues "crawl"

Common- Universal mind control
this song samples "planet rock" which is awesome.... and is used to advertise the new zune software update "zune 3.0" of which i don't care about. none the less this song is sick, very futurstic and the video has a robot in it....oh also pharell is in the song, i'm not being disjointed i just care more about the robot than i do about pharell on this track.


oh no oh my- boy with and anchor
this is indie peaceful fun, existentially ripe with metaphors, but i do like the line "i tried to write , i tried to love... but all my i failed at both" also a fun use of brass instruments in the chorus...if that your thing. danceable death cab...no not the postal service, jerk

innerpartysystem- don't stop
i just saw these guys with 3oh!3, lyrically this song/band is retarded but the can put out some good music and beats, also they have their own light show so i say it's worth seeing live if you get the chance, but yeah lyrically it's all society and "dear future..." nonsense, doesn't make sense, not to me at least, but i can be dense so whatever. everything else is blast though.

Jack's mannequin- the resolution
i really don't like the glass passenger, i liked their first cd more...and i like all of something corporate more than that...so i guess i feel like Andrew Macmahon is moving steadily down, because i feel like his recent work is at best on "par" with this best work. that being said the resolution IS a pretty solid song, and does remind me of some of the old somethng corporate stuff, so it ain't all bad... stupid cancer(ask me about glassjaw)

Santogold- lights out
this is the theme song to bud light with lime... so that fun, i had it stuck in my head, so listened to it and accidentally put it on this playlist...but it's a fine song so i didn't feel like taking it off, I'm pretty sure i even put it on a play list on my blog already... well here it is again, with an explanation

Fall out boy- love lockdown
it's funny... i love both kanye west and fall out boy, but i feel like this is the best thing they've both put out, in that fall out boy do a better version of this song than kanye does...and love lockdown is better than some of the demo's for the new fall out boy cd. i hope i'm wrong for both their sakes

Red Car Wire- i kissed a girl
this is a cover... of katy perry... so there's that too

enjoy... or don't

update: 11/2...what i'm up to

okay, so i just started work this week so, i feel a bit behind due to poor time management... however this does not mean that i have fell behind on my media..so a brief overview

what i'm watching
avatar the last airbender: this show is phenomenal! i speak with enthusiasm! i was quick to judge this show while it was still airing on nickelodeon but it's really something special. it has integrity in iy's drama and actual humor when appropriate..but yeah i'm up to season 3. so far just great

the office: employee transfer, wasn't a very good episode. i wouldn't call it a bad episode persay, but not near the top. the advertised Halloween stuff was 5 min in the beginning, enjoyable but a letdown when i realized that was all. we saw Micheal and Holly break up(?) or at least end things temporarily which also depressed me as holly was my favorite new character this season. worse yet we saw a very unimpressive c story in Jim visiting Pam in NY with his brothers taking him out to dinner and attempt to prank him...it just ends up making me sad...the saving grace comes with a story between Dwight and Andy fighting over Andy's precious "Cornell" that and the scene with mike, holly and Daryl singing "life is a highway"...high larious, not a total loss, but kind of a let down

valentine- this show caught me off guard. i actually like weird magic non sense in my prime time that's why i like pushing daises and lost and all that nonsense, so it may not surprise you that i find this show adorable...and probably cancelled... but hopefully get through 1 season so i can add another show to my DVD collection of no renewal for a second season(catchy, no?) any way the shows about the gods of love Aphrodite and the rest running their godly duties like a matchmaking service, so each week is them trying to bring two soul mates together using their magic powers. it's cute... whats alsoute is Taylor from the OC, as she plays the same kind of awkward fidgety character.
i'm about to start watching weeds season three as well as catch up o the current season of dexter

what i'm listening to

forgive durden-razia's shadow: a musical- i started to talk about this before in my new music post but i can't explain how good it is. each character is perfectly represented by the people playing them especially max bemis, shawn harris and brendon urie. nic newsham does really well too. but much credit to thomas dutton for putting together a cohesive musical journey. unfortunately i really don't think there's a market for this sort of thing... so I'm curious to see how well it does

sugarcult- start static- goooooood cd. i used to just max and relax with sugarcult hang out with friends and nothing got me pumped more than "bouncing off the walls again"...then i graduated, and forgot about them in a sea of indie rock and others. but start static at the very least stands the test of time i listened to it today in the car and it was poppy and fun it had everyone singing along.

kanye west robocop- the premise is stupid I'm gonna talk about more in new music this week but suffice to say this song is bizarre...it's either a demo or one of the new songs along with love lock down... either way, weird

that's all for now
Bredan FM

(a very special) new music: 10.24.08

new music is something i always try to do but fall short of updating, the idea it's me telling you what i've been listening to for the last week or so, and giving you the chance to check out something you might not normally check out. so yeah... I'll just start up new music right now.

Matt and Kim- daylight
i first saw Matt and Kim last week on you "rock the deuce". they hosted the whole damn thing , they seemed like your basic Brooklyn hipster trash, and I'm not trying to say there anything other than that but they had alot of fun in the video for daylight and i had the song stuck in my head for a few days.

3oh!3-starstrukk
i love 30h!3, just fun, techno beats and filthy lyrics, starstrukk in particular has this ridiculously catchy whistling part in the chorus, that combined with their lack of discretion in demeaning women which stating themselves as intellectual new age hipsters makes them a win.

chromeo- Bonafied Lovin' (Tough Guys)
the first song i heard by chromeo was "momma's boy" which is great song, but does not prepare for the energy that's all over fancy footwork, the duo's sophomore effort... as far energy is concerned, it doesn't get much better then bonafied lovin' a song about someone who feels like like their much more mature than whoever their with right now..the only reason i'm even talking about the premise in such a reading rainbow fashion is to bring up the line " Nevermind a SMS, what you need is a sweet caress"...too good

Ludacris- what them girls like (feat. Chris Brown)
ludacris and chris brown FTW, i have not gotten tired of this song yet, it's repetitive not a new concept(it seems ludacris and chris know what them girls like as it were)not a revolutionary but if you like ANY Ludacris it's pretty much all the same..excpet the song he did with Mary j Blige about girls who runaway, that was weird

Ben Folds- Hiroshima(B B B Benny hits his head)
this is song ENTIRELY about Ben Folds tripping on stage at a show in japan, passing out and have to get head x-rays... so it's clearly a relatable concept... maybe not, but it is catchy

Lily Allen- Fuck you very much
for some reason this song comes up at "guess who batman" still though it's a poppy as you expect a Lily Allen song to be... and then some

Forgive Durden- "It's True Love" (ft. Greta Salpeter of The Hush Sound)
this is off of the new Forgive Durden cd which i am eagerly awaiting, this song is great, greta's voice perfectly colpiments forgive durden's Thomas Dutton, it's somber and heavy with orchestra but while you'd expect this to get cluttered or be a contradiction the flow of it is really romantic and gorgeous to the ears

that was new music for the week of 10.24.08, it's not a perfect formula, but take a listen and tell me what you think

BrendanFM

Prologue: AWWWWW Yeah!

hello, readers and illiterate alike

My name is Brendan Francis Mullen, lately i have taken to calling myself BrendanFM on these things though. This is my way too formal introduction to something no one may ever read. more often than not i like to wax intellectual about music, movies and TV alike, but since my forum posting and my talking to myself about the unimportant issues of entertainment has surprisingly not produced fame and fortune or even provoked interest. I felt i needed to work on making my thoughts more cohesive and clever. So what i plan to do with this thing here is polish my reviewing skills for the too many movies and tv shows i watch, talk about music/movies/wrestling/video game/comics news through out the week, post my mix tapes(which i constantly make) and just get my opinion on how shitty i feel EVERYTHING is.

so how interested are you in what i have to offer? that depends, if you consider yourself a judgmental ass, who tries to keep up on the latest music. i really try and listen to a wide variety of the latest music... for a feel of what i listen to check out my last.fm page.
i also have in movies and tv, movies i have a leaning towards stupid comedies and horror, but i do watch drama and small independent films too. so, you'll just have to take a wait and see approach as to if you like the same movies as i do, you feel my dawg? as for TV i'm honestly just gonna post reviews on what i watch that i feel like reviewing, maybe I'll do a running review on shows i watch consistently. I'm also a a comic, video game and wrestling nerd, soooo, i got that going for me... maybe I'll incorporate that somehow, i mention this because i feel like i shouldn't be ashamed of my interests, whatever though I'll cross that bridge when i come to it.

so thats me, and I'm terrible at wrapping these things up... so, yeah check out my various written segments through out the month.
