Well I went to Circuit City just now and picked up Year Zero, and I’m pretty fucking happy with my purchase of one of the greatest CDs ever made. I got it for a grand total of 10.59 (it WAS marked as $13.99, but having the guy at the customer service desk check the website, I got mine for $9.99 plus tax.) Anyways, The Thermo-Chrome disc is pretty cool, (It changes color when heated up) and I’m searching through the booklet in the case for anything that could possibly be linked to the year zero alternate reality game… This WILL take a while… *sigh*

“BLACKSBURG, Va. - A gunman opened fire in a dorm and classroom at Virginia Tech on Monday, killing 21 people in the deadliest campus shooting rampage in U.S. history. The gunman was killed, bringing to death toll to 22, but it was unclear if he was shot by police or took his own life.”

This is just beyond horrible. I really don’t know what to say right now, so go read on at yahoo.

“The discovery of traces of flesh in a 68-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex bone ties the King of the Dinosaurs to modern-day species and, scientists say, heralds a “milestone” shift in paleontology. “Based on the small sample we’ve recovered, chickens may be the closest relatives (to T. Rex),” says geneticist John Asara of Beth.”

So you’re telling me that chickens could be the closest relative to the T. Rex… Why does this make me want to re-think lunch?

Well I did it. I finally got a new phone and ditched my Oystr and Virgin Mobile account. The reason: Virgin Mobile didn’t apply my $20 payment and the cancelled my account. So I went out and bought a Motorola v190 from Cingular Wireless and I’m pretty happy with the phone and service already. I haven’t had any calls drop out yet (Unlike Virgin, where the call drops out when I opened the flip on my phone), And I’ve only run into one small glitch in my phone so yeah, it’s a world of improvement over virgin mobile. Now here’s the weather: Fucking Cold and Snowing. This is why I hate living in Michigan, the weather will go from 69 degrees and beautiful out one day, then the next its 25 and you have 3 inches of snow on the ground. It was so nice out for the past 2 weeks, then the weather decided to reverse direction, so yeah this is a pain in the ass. As for Easter: I’m not really doing anything except the normal family get-together we have every year. And now we move onto something I’ve been waiting for since February: Year Zero by Nine inch Nails. The album leaked last night and I have to say that it’s freaking amazing. It’s certainly one of the best Nine Inch Nails albums, and it may very well be the best album of 2007. It’s hard to put the awesomeness of the album into words, so I’ll say this: buy it on April 17^th , You will NOT be disappointed with it. Anyways, I’m off to do some interesting stuff with slightly interesting people.
