Watchable

Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2009 - 12:57 a.m.

Well, I sat through the first episode of The Jay Leno Show, which is something I try and do with every new show -- and it was kind of like finding out that community college was no different than high school except for the ashtrays on the cafeteria tables.

Familiar faces, new set -- not splashy and grand and terribly different, but also not unwatchable.

I wish him luck.

Got a spate of messages from Alan on Monday during his morning work break, saying he liked the song, that we should redo my vocal so they can sync up a little better with his, and that overall we did a good piece of work on Sunday.

I agree with his assessment; I have listened to the scratch track here again, and yes, I lagged in a few places, and I wanna rethink some of the harmony.

But one more trip through the ol mixing board, and we'll have ourselves a song.

My brother made the following status post to Facebook:

This is an unusual month--back to school and so on. This is an unusual paragraph, too. How quickly can you find out what is so uncommon about it? It looks so ordinary that you may think that nothing is odd until you match it with most paragraphs this long. If you put your mind to it and study it you will find out, but nobody may assist you. Par is about a fourth of an hour. Good luck--and don't blow your cool.

I figured it out and responded:

Got it. What an intriguing paragraph. I enjoy your quandry posts!

He replied:

A satisfactory antiphon Brin LOL. And thanks...I try to gratify. I also am of an opinion that you will stand solitary in fulfilling for a bit.

Then I wrote:

Jon, my sibling, I will watch what unfolds. Although you usually know what's what. I think your assumption is right. I am continually looking, but I don't find additional input from anybody about this paragraph. You WILL pity us with a hint, soon, won't you? How long can this last, li'l bro?

Then a couple of other people stumbled on the answer and Jon posted:

I think it is finis

And knowing my brother like I think I do, we'll probably keep up this exchange in chat.

Nothing else going on. Have a good Tuesday!

Oh wait, by request, I've reproduced Pink's message from Twitter -- "Kanye west is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me."

All right, now I'm done. Take care.
