Top 5 things people don't know about you
1. I wanted to be a Power Ranger when I was a young lad. So much so that I had people call me "Billy." My uncle Phil still calls me this to this day.
2. I had the nickname "Critter" when I was born. My uncle Bob still calls me this and only this to this day.
3. I don't try very hard with a lot of things. I lack motivation.
4. I wish I was more like Jonny K
5. One of my biggest pet peeves is when people use the term "emo" improperly. It is not the neo-goth fashion style or a genre for bands like Dashboard Confessional. It means "emotive hardcore" and describes bands like Circle Takes The Square. And now you know.

Hear this album

MGMT is the most infectious band that I have ever heard. Combining a mix of indie pop rock and psychedelic electronica, their sophomore album Oracular Spectacular is sure to be stuck in your head for days and days. Highlights of the album include the opening track 'Time to Pretend' which is an anthem for the teenage generation's refusal to conform. Another highlight is 'Electric Feel'. The most addictive track on the album however is 'Kids'. The first time that I heard this track I had it in my head for at least a week. Listen to it at your own discretion and don't blame me when you have this whole album stuck in your head.

Grade= Gold Star

Invention Mind Zone

Recently I was thinking about the future and all the stuff that we should be working on to make 2015 just like it is in Back to the Future II, because the way it's looking now, Marty Mcfly is going to be seriously disappointed when he shows up in Doc Brown's DeLorean.

1. Wireless electricity- Power outlets are out. We got wireless everything. Wireless phones, wireless internet, we even got wireless pop stars. The only thing holding us back is batteries having to be charged all the time. I figure if we combine electricity with magnets this should be no problem and our electronics will keep going and going like the Energizer Bunny.

2. New transpo- I came up with two solutions to the gas problem. First if we want to stick with automobiles, I figure, "Why use gas when we can just coast everywhere?" I am going to invent roads that only go downhill so that we can just coast everywhere. You're thinking, "Coasting is great, but what about when I have to go uphill?" Well when you need to go up, you just go on a loopdiloop and it will use your speed to make you go up. The second option is to get the scientists working on the tube technology. We just build huge tubes that go everywhere and use some sort of giant vacuum cleaner to suck us to our destination. We just have to flush ourselves to where we want to go.

3. Time travel- People have been time travelling for years on T.V. Marty Mcfly time travelled way back in 1985. Desmond Hume time travelled from a deserted island with no equipment. Only the power of his mind. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles time travelled twice. Once in TMNT 3 and once in Turtles in Time. And they aren't even human. Heck even Steve Urkel time travelled, and became a super cool dude. So why can't we just turn all of our gizmos and gadgets to 1.21 jigawatts and see what happens.

All this theorizing and brainstorming inventions is a lot for me to handle on my own, but since the scientists aren't stepping up, somebody better go into Albert Einstein, Leonardo Da Vinci, Doc Brown mode and save the future from embarrassing itself from time travelling turtle ninjas.

Thanks to people and things, I have learned about new music in 2008. Vampire Weekend. Manchester Orchestra. Favorite albums of 08: Narrow Stairs, Paper Trails, Red Album.
2. iPhone
Let me get this straight. I can use my iPod as a phone? Why didn't anybody think of this earlier.
3. College
It's pretty great. You can say naughty words and share a bathroom with numerous other guys. Oh and you can go to bed after 12.
4. Dewmocracy
Mountain Dew was all like, "Make our new flavor." America was all like, "Yep." Voltage was the best flavor by far.
5. Facial hair
Okay, well it's not here yet, but plans have been made to get this mustache underway ASAP.
6. Flight of the Conchords
HBO comedy about New Zealand's fourth most popular folk parody duo. It's good. Just like Bret's beard.

I rented a movie just about every day this summer. It was a great summer. Some notable ones are Almost Famous, Sweeney Todd, Cloverfield, Garden State. Wes Anderson.
8. Starburst jelly beans
Honestly the greatest things ever.
