Today is the CD release party for the focuspoint CD I've been whoring information out about over the last month. I think I've been so vocal about it because it's been taking up nearly all of my time outside of work to complete. All the info about the CD is here, or in the sidebar. Hope to see you out.
Congratulations to the following people for getting out of jail:
Dr. Jack "Dr. Death" Kevorkian:
Paroled from a Michigan prison last week after serving 8 years for second-degree murder, Kevorkian, 79, said Tuesday he would dedicate himself to a longshot effort to convince Americans to support assisted suicide.
However, as a condition of his two-year parole, Kevorkian promised the state he would not assist suffering and terminally ill patients commit suicide and said he would hold to that vow even after his parole ended. Practice what you preach, dude.
Paris Hilton:
Hilton, 26, was released from jail on Thursday for medical reasons after serving just three days of a three-week term, but was confined to her home with an electronic ankle bracelet for 40 days. Likely, the bracelet is accented by canary yellow diamonds. Hilton was serving time for violating probation after being caught driving with a suspended licence.
Authorities did not specify the medical issue that led to her "reassignment" or say why she could not be treated in jail, though logic points to venereal diseases.
Pundits (Matt, Scott, Wesley, Gramps) call for Hilton to be jailed again, if only for her radically unentertaining sex video, as society should maintain higher standards for the quality of such videos, they contest.
Update: Paris is, of course, going back to jail now.
Sergio and I made the cut in the music video for "Back Home," the lead single of the new Blue Scholars album, "BAYANI."
Sergio is pictured with 2:59 remaining. I'm pictured (and portrayed as a father) with 2:04 remaining.
While I'm not exactly acting, this one's going on my resume.
Reason #121 why you should never leave Scott catsitting:
Forget partying in Vancouver, B.C. this summer.
The AP reports that the Canadian dollar traded for 94 cents for the first time in 30 years today. That's just loonie (really bad pun).
Compare that to my glory days at Western in 2002 when the Canadian dollar traded at an all-time low 61 cents. Let's just say I spent some American dollars at the bars as a 19-year-old during the Canucks' 2002 playoff run.
Sergio, I only hope that the U.S. dollar picks up by the time you head up to the 98225 so that you can enjoy the same luxuries north of the border that I did.
