I'm so ready for this...

Not too many movies give me chills when I see commercials for them. I got really excited about Transformers this last year, which kind of failed to deliver. I was very excited about the X-Men movies, but the third one failed to deliver. Same with Spider-Man. But this Iron Man looks awesome. And I don't mind telling you, that I'm very excited for this.

Please deliver the goods!

The Best Thing About Downloading 150 songs on ITunes

I was kind of bummed out with all the restrictions placed on me from my newly acquired KROQ ITune Gift Cards. The first problem is that they are only good for one song at a time. Meaning, if I want to buy an album, I have to buy every song separately and I don't event get the Booklets. But to make matters worse I have to purchase all of my 150 songs before the 12th of March. Now I have already purchased Alice in Chains 'Unplugged' (which is probably the best buy), the Bravery's 'Bravery,' Gwen Stefani's 'Great Escape,' Jet's 'Get Born' and Silversun Pickups's 'Carnavas.' I never thought I'd have this much trouble picking and choosing songs to download. The burden I bare is of the audio variety, because I can think of a million downloads that would complete my existence when I don't wield the Free Downloads, but it seems that I have somewhat of a road block that is stopping me from simply picking and choosing the best tunes.

As always I would welcome some suggestions. As of right now I'm thinking Lynrd Skynard, Depeche Mode, Van Halen, but nothing is in concrete. So please leave me a comment and give me a suggestion.

Thanks!

You don't know how I won this prize... you must be new to the blog, catch up here.

Lily's Playtime before Bed

I introduce to you... the IBand!

Upon first seeing this video, I think... spectacular. As I watched the video, I was blown away with the ability of these three "musicians" to create this unique sound. However, what makes me scratch my head is, who has that kind of time to put together this electronic orchestra. I mean, it's a novel idea, but how long did they practice before they recorded it. Anyway, I think I'll put my thoughts to rest and just enjoy the sound.

C'mon everyone, lets get green!

As I lied in bed last night, not being able to sleep whatsoever, I decided to play a CD. Which ironically is titled, "Sleep Through the Static" by Jack Johnson. The smooth soft sounds, I thought for sure would inspire my pending slumber. However, that wasn't the case. In fact quite the opposite happened. I ended up spiraling out of control with thoughts inspired by the latest installment of melodies by Jack Johnson. "Sleep Through the Static" was recorded in an totally environmentally friendly studio. Johnson is known for his devotion to protect the environment. One thing that sticks out in my mind is seeing Johnson on his roof, seemingly installing solar panels. The roof basically looks like a dozen solar panels all over encompassing the rough.
Needles to say, we aren't all rock stars with large buckets of cash to fulfill our desires.
So how can we do our parts to clean up the environment?
I like recycling. It pays to recycle. Cans and bottles are fairly commonly known. However, what about ink cartridges? Or even old cell phones? I have been using free recycling for about a year now. I think it's great. You can sign up clicking on my link. It keeps the old cartridges out of dump sites, it puts a little extra cash in our pockets, and its good for the environment. So take a look into it. And I can speak for the company myself, they are a class act. So if you currently use ink cartridges please don't toss them out. Use this site and pad your pockets and help the environment.

106 Downloads from ITunes...

This isn't the first time I've been on KROQ. This isn't the first time I've won something on KROQ. But this is the first time I've won a call in contest. The came is called The IPod Shuffle, featuring Bean's IPod. I couldn't believe I won. Now bare in mind I was barely awake at 6:15am when I called in. I called in and talked to the Dave, the King of Mexico. He quickly put me on hold. Then Alex picked up the phone and asked my answer. She asked me if I knew who sang the song, I didn't, so she told me. So after listening to all of these good guesses, I finally greeted Kevin and Bean with the "White Devil" reference. I was driving to work, so I couldn't get too crazy. But its always nice to be a winner. Especially because the night before my friends and I were just talking about the prizes we've won from KROQ. So Thank you Bean for being so predictable and thanks to KROQ for hooking me up.

As Bean says, its all about me Dude!
