HEEEEYYY HOOOOOOO and Bird Scheme.

Okee dokee cowboys (and cowgirls), just dropping a tiddly to say 'what's goin on' and to let all the locals know that I'll be playing at Lydia's on the 31st @ 10. You have been forewarned. It was birthday last Tuesday so hooray for me. Also, upon special request, the word of the day is Besmirched. For proper comprehension, so we can take full advantage of this vocab gem, we must break down the Latin roots, Besmir and Ched. If you recall, in Roman history, Besmir was a famous businessman and spokesperson for the common people of lower/middle class Rome. At the height of his popularity, a jealous yet foolish statesman named Ched began a competitive feud for popularity in their region. Ched is almost solitarily known for his openly slanderous attacks on Besmir's reputation. On numerous occasions he would try to ruin and cause disruptions at Besmirs rallies. At one important speaking, Ched went so far as to dump rotten vegetable juice from a rooftop onto Besmir down below. This enraged Besmir so much, that he stormed off leaving his speech unconcluded and audience disappointed. This is why we now use the word BESMIRCHED to represent a spoiled or 'stained' reputation. In our English language we have extended our ability to use this vocal imagery by adding our common suffixes such as Besmircher or Besmirchment, or even the short form, Besmirch. Some anagrams for Besmirched are Meshed Crib and Bird Scheme.

postscript: is you have any "vocab gems", use one in a sentence as a comment.

holla holla holla holla holla

Well its been so long since I last wrote anything... here comes another guilt driven post. There are a couple unfinished blogs on my roommates computer, but I will get to those soon. How about we open up a discussion? Mmmm... Wine. Your thoughts. Lately Ive been really feelin it. I dont know why, sometimes I like it sometimes I dont. Favourite wine right now... Fat Bastard for white and this Inniskillen stuff Jordan had for red. Lets see, also up for dicussion.... halloween costumes. What are you planning on being? Any suggestions as to what I should be? I have a couple ideas but they are all quite extravagant. Whats new with me lately...... I put in my two weeks notice at the roofing company I am currently working at. So hopefully I will be in the studio more often and I will probably get a parttime job somewhere near my house. Im at a friends house right now and everyone is watching a movie I have already seen. Well, Ive seen the first 3/4's of it, so Im just killing time until the end. Well I guess I can always resort to ridiculous features to write something. How about word of the day and music i like. Word of the day is Pantaloons. Try using this in a conversation today. There are SO many anagrams for this word like A SLOP ON TAN or SNOT ON A PAL, I wont even try to make a whole list. Music I like today is ....... mmm theres a lot. I fell asleep to Bloc Party today which is one of my newer cd's. Check out any of their songs to get the vibe. What else... I guess since I started with sleep lets keep that theme going. Good artists to fall asleep to.. Feist for sure. Eva Cassidy, Coldplay, These Hands, Norah Jones, Ray Charles, Jack Johnson. Recent and upcoming concerts to check out: Feist and Arcade Fire were just here and Metric and Bella are coming soon so hopefully I will be hittin those. Well so long for now, hopefully the movie is almost over.
