I just received my Secret Santa package today, and I was so fucking happy. Just look at the haul:


a big box with my name and a nice message. The thought of mail workers reading this box makes me smile.


I didn't recognize the name on the shipping address (they used their real name) so I thought I would never know my secret Santa. But there was something about the label that just wasn't right. It was bothering the fuck out of me. I had a couple of friends over (I drove home from school) when I was trying to maniacally rip back the paper to see the secret message and they all thought I was crazy and that there was nothing there. But lo and behold!


And here's the magical swag! While I may not enjoy classic games, I appreciate their contributions. I'm also kind of a gaming history nut (The Ultimate History of Video Games anyone?), so having a vintage NES game, especially a special edition one, in my hands makes me kind of giddy.

So thanks Naia and Zero Atma for the awesome gift! YAY!


Now, on to the song. I really like this song. It's not really about traveling, but who gives a shit, it's awesome.


Ram Jam - Black Betty

you lucky son-of-a-bitch

also, I forgot to add that I like me some Queens of the Stone Age for some traveling music. Mainly anything from their first, self-titled album and Songs for the Deaf.

Ron, I was just about to say you should do Go With The Flow. We're on a wavelength, man. Or it's just a coincidence.

It's more like the same frequency. Sorry, had a Chemistry test today.

Also, that song has one of the best and strangest videos ever. I just hope I can find one that's not embed blocked.

Congrats man. But seriously, don't be surprised if everyone you care for died tomorrow.

HOLY SHIT!
My best friend's dad wrote this goddamn song! We give him shit about it all the time. Seriously, if we're ever arguing, or he's acting up, I just say "Whoa, Black Betty, bam-ba-lam" and he shuts right up.

If you're thinking about doing Queens of the Stone Age, just do Kyuss instead. They're practically the same band members, except less mainstream and more awesome.

that's awesome. I feel bad for not signing up for the secret santa thing. I didn't have $$ at the time.
