...Just got a free Gilette Fusion razor in the mail. It has FIVE blades on it. This is an upgrade from my current Mach 3 razor, which battles my beard with only three blades. Can't wait for the day when they invent a way to make a razor with six blades. What advances in technology! I believe in high school, the most razors you could get on a blade was two. I'm happy to be alive.
...And have you noticed the ads for men's razors are like 30 second shorts for Tron? Or BladeRunner? Like razors are futuristic? How progressive is scraping your face with tiny knives? Get me a razor that fires lasers out of it to remove my facial hair for weeks at a time if you're gonna advertise like that.
...To the Texas fans out there: National championships are fun, aren't they? We Sooners hope the best for you in your moment in the sun. Enjoy it. Pat ol' Vincent on the back, wish him well, and we'll see you in the Cotton Bowl.
...Current listening: Death Cab for Cutie, Citizen Cope, Andrew Bird
...suggestions from the audiophiles?
...Thanks to the OKC crew for a great New Year's Eve. I had a group of about 10 friends from OKC come to KC for NYE--I have great friends. We had a good time. You should come visit, too! We'll walk over to the BBQ restaurant next to my apt and enjoy some tasty ribs.
...I have a possible steady gig playing guitar at a local church. They've have offered me a position as the back-up guitar player for a once a month service. Is there any more back-up back-up role than one that at best/worst would commit me to twelve times per year?
...In actuality, I am playing tonight at a local church called Heartland Community Church, which is a fairly large church. I can't tell you how nice it is to plug in the electric again. Can't rock out in the apartment.
...For those of you who like stories, I'll be rotating through the emergency department again next month. For now, I'll share a good one...
...A lady was visiting some friends from out of town. They decided to hit an after hours party at a local bar. As they were in the parking lot, the lady reported being assaulted by unkown individuals, suffering a small 1-2 inch cut just underneath her eyebrow. Not thinking it too big of a deal, she made it home and went to bed. As she awoke in the morning, she noted having some difficulty with her vision in the affected eye, so she went to the hospital. Noting the change in vision with the cut and blow to the head, the doctors decided to get a CT scan of the head to look for anything more severe. What they discovered was that the cut wasn't simply a cut. What they found was a brightly illuminated 3-inch serrated blade inside the woman's eye socket, at the location of the cut. This explained the loss in vision. Apparently she had not simply been hit in the face, but stabbed with a knife, the blade of which broke off the handle and was lodged inside her head. To think that she went home, went to sleep, and then woke up to report to the hospital must be substantive proof of alcohol as a pain killer.
That is all...

Remember the SNL skit about the Mach 10 razor, or something like that?
I see you're still using the cell phone to your ear pose for pictures. I thought it was a bit much when you did it at that funeral, though.
Music suggestion: Muse
I'm sure it's old news, but just in case.
I'm just glad to know it was a cell phone pose. I was wondering why you were scratching your face with your hand that way!
And, Sam, you know I have absolutely no music suggestions for you. It's only become worse since college, friend. :) (Now it includes princess sing-a-longs and Top 50 Bible Songs for Kids)
Music Suggestion: Never listen to Blair's music suggestions. He has a strong affinity for crap.
Knife story is pretty amazing. Emile and I took the girls to a horse farm with some friends and ended up telling them about the first day of labs in horse and horsemanship when you horse just sat down in the middle of the ring.
Glad to see everything is going good.
Your girls must think I'm the marlboro man.
