the past couple of months have been busy. fun getaways and more to come. last monday brought us the flaming lips here in columbus. i have no problem saying that it was the best show that i have ever been to. I like to call it a visual feast with no visual dairy products. the openers of the show were the sonic youth and the magic numbers. the magic numbers were about as tight as you could ask and the sonic youth were about as old as you could ask. excellent performances by all. it did rain during the magic numbers, but stoppped and cleared up by the time the flaming lips went on. unbeknownst to us, this was the type of clearing up that happens right before a
tornado forms and sirens ring throughout the city. not a good place to be at an outdoor venue. luckily the music was loud and everyone was oblivious to the threat on their lives. jenni managed to still look as cute as a button despite being soaked and nearly having a wizard of oz adventure.


the day prior to the show we got to enjoy the day with harr at his new home in cleveland. we even managed to catch the indians playing the tigers at the jake. jenni bought me a hot dog and brought it back with no condiments. my laziness overtook my willingness to go get some ketchup and mustard, so there i sat taking a couple of bites off a plain hot dog. i did get lectured by a bum named antwan robinson outside the brandtson show during our stay. i refused too buy him a meal and he rebuked me for it. antwan told me of the time jesus fed thousands and that by the blood of jesus i should return the favor and feed him. after i still refused, he pointed a finger at me and said that he could be jesus standing before me, and i just denied him food... i thought it was a good point.

so the weekend before that takes us to new york city. jenni and i got to take a couple of days trying to take in all of what manhatten has to offer. what i found out new york has to offer are; eight i love ny t-shirts for 10 dollars, one of the same t-shirt at the airport for 32 dollars, bums sweeping their sidewalk with a beach shovel, a guy clling me a f'n f@#%@# a$$ mothe f'er, and a half korean with a little bit of urine in his pants after said individual yelled at him. all in all, i would say it was a great trip.
