Fatboy Slim's latest, Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars, is phenomenal.

I picked it up about a month or so ago when it first came out, and ran it through a bit, but didn't take to it much. I'm not on my third spin through and I must say, I'm very impressed.

I read an interview with the man himself in Spin Magazine last night, and decided to touch the album again to see what it did for me.

It's very different from his usual work, if by usual you mean You've Come a Long Way, Baby.
But if you drift along the CD aisles and pick up a copy of The Roots of Norman Cook and give that a twirl, you will notice some of the old style coming back.

It's still his style. Instantly recognizable, but there's something fresh and new about it. I can't even describe the newer style.

Also, the album's new single, Ya Mama (insert obvious yourMOM reference) is totally a dancefloor packer.

In retrospect, I don't know when I became a Rolling Stone CD reviewer, and it sort of makes me sick that I just said "dancefloor" packer. But what can I go? Fatboy Slim's last album is in my top 20 favorites of all time, and I think Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars is well on its way next to it.

Go buy it. If you do nothing else in your life, you lazy piece of shit, listen to me.

I know what I'm talking about.

antitrust was awesome. it was not just a good hacker movie, but it was a great all around suspense movie.

the benefit of going to a drive in is that if you don't like the move that you're parked in front of / paid to see, you can look at the screens to your left and right, and watch something that you want to watch, just by finding the correct radio station.

and it's only $6/person for 2 movies.

And you thought the CD was good.

Last night I became enlightened. I was washed in color and sterophonic (and hooverphonic) sound by a man, a legend even; called BT.

BT. hooverphonic. Avalon.

love bt, do you atley? you obviously have or have heard movement in still life, but i highly reccomend picking up two other cds. one being BT_ECSM (ESCM?) and a second which is actually two cds, that I can't recall the name of but that has the Tori Amos Blue Skies mix on it. (Two versions, in fact.)

I went and saw "Chicken Run" last night (not by choice). For a G-rated movie I have to admit, it wasn't too bad. In fact, I think I liked it. Plus, it was interesting to see so many people over the age of 30 going without their children.

Late at night, nothing to do, even sleep doesn't appeal to my worn out senses. The day has been long and I'm groggy but my bed hasn't opened up it's arms for me yet. I must sleep, I really must. But I'm afraid all I'll do is toss, turn and waste precious time thinking thoughtless thoughts.

What do I turn to? Archived entries of yana's journal. I can't seem to get enough. Funny, just like Coke.

For those of you who have not heard, there is a new open source program called gnutella. Its just like napster, but much better.
- There are no central servers. everyone is connected to everyone else. Its like a spider web. Because of this, there is no one company to prosecute, so it can't be taken down.
- I'm connected to over 3,500 hosts (computers) right now with 377,000 files at my disposal.
- You can share/trade all sorts of different files. not just mp3s.
- Its open source. No backdoors or anything. Made originally by the guys at winamp.com but released to the public for modifying/fixing.
- Napster is expected to lose in court and will likely get shut down. this is a wonderful replacement.

interested? i posted version 0.56 on my site here.

A good web page to start with, for info, directions, etc is here.
You can also email me if you have questions.

Enjoy!

know what rocks? the feeling you get when you've been sitting outside in the FREEZING cold for 2 hours wearing only a teeshirt and a sweatshirt.. and some complete stranger walks up to you and says "want a ride?" and then they drive you home, are super-nice to you- and don't even kill you. That's what rocks.

this movie "naked lunch".. really trippy.. one part, though made me crack up. This guy's trying to cross a border of some sort, and is saying he's a writer.. So the cop guy asks him to prove it- and the guy holds up a pen and says "well.. I have a writing device". mad funny.

went to jillians the other night, to play pool. there was an hour wait, so steve and i walked around the place, looking for somewhere to sit. then we saw the biggest pool table we've ever seen.

the thing was seriously 11 feet long. there was someone playing some sort of billiards on it with the wrong number of balls, and steve and i watched. as we watched, the person (who's name i don't remember) invited steve to come over and play. so we did.

turns out that he was playing snooker which turns out to be the longest possible game of billiards to play.

i don't want to explain the rules right now, but it's pretty safe to say that i have a new challenge: to get good at snooker.

the wierdest part was that we were there for two and a half hours after the guy left, and we only played two games. two games! it takes sooooo much concentration to play on a table that's that long, and who's pockets are sooooo small, that it was...

completely draining.

have i mentioned how much my car rocks? i think so. well. i'm taking it to another level...

so, it snowed today. i decided that i didn't want to deal with all the stupid drivers on the road. so i didn't go into work. i worked from home. which is good.

wait. what was i talking about? oh yeah, my car... so, i had to move the car. so, i go out to the car. it's buried behind foot plus plow drifts. no shovel. oh well. i wipe off the car/windows. i get in. throw it on first, and gun it. wheels spinning. i crank the wheel towards the mounds of plowed snow. RPMS jump to 7000, i shift into second. still moving forward. my tires hit the main road, and i'm off like a rocket. fcuking A.

but i'm facing the wrong way. oh well. one way street going the wrong way on the right. pull a bit past it, stop, throw the car in reverse, crank the wheel, and gun it. the front end of the car whips / slides around likkety-split. all traffic stops. throw it back into first, gun it, and i'm hurtling it into traffic, wheels spinning, spedometer registering around 50mph, snow flying into the air.

i never knew driving in the snow could be so much fun.

you know what i just realized? i love tv commercials. i was sitting watching some stupid christmas show on cbs (america's pussiest network) and on comes some commercial. its weird how the volume always goes up during a commercial (which is an illegal ploy that should be alerted to the FCC), but usually i have to say commercials are worth it.
not because i'm interested in their product, but because there are so many god damn tits on tv! i love tits! i mean what better way to sell your product. jeans? SHOW ME YOUR TITS. coffee? TITS PLEASE. feminine hygeine? I WANT T..wait those are gross ads which should be fucking illegal.

I saw the most random movie last night, called Bufallo '66.
It has Christina Ricci in it, and some other guy I can't remember the name of. It's basically about this guy who ended up going to jail because he owed a shitload of money off of a bet he could have paid. So they sent him to jail to take the fall for one of their guys, to pay the debt.
He obviously a little bitter.

I caught the movie in a little after it started, so it took me a minute to catch the basic premise... and he went to the bathroom a lot. Like a real lot. And he was always antsy before he went. I had the feeling he had a disease or something, since he looked kind of sick, but couldn't pinpoint it and the movie didn't tell me.
I think I'll rent it sometime.
Nevertheless.. it was actually a good movie. Had a lot of weird artsy shots and camera angles in it, but that sort of stuff is cool once you realize that it's going to be abound in a certain movie.
I'd give it three and a half stars, on a five star scale. The plot kept me watching and the ending was really good.

So josh and myself saw Outside Providence at our theatre along with two very cool chickies from the show.

By 'our theatre' and 'the show' I mean the Sony theatre in Harvard; and Rocky, which is, the show.

two movies. mystery men and DeepBlueSea this weekend. both movies were as funny as hell.

mystery men was your cheezy-as-they come superhero story straight the fuck out of the comic. but it had the stupid as hell factor as well, which made it funny. tons of one liners, that, amazing enough were pretty damn funny.

DeepBlueSea was completely a JAWS remake. but funny as hell. forget that whole concept of well, he's one of the stars of the movie, he's not going to die... nope. everyone gets lit-the-fuck-up. well worth the movie price just to see all the big-name stars get lit-up.
