Halloween 2004
What a great weekend. Ted and Ryan came up to visit. Two days of Halloween in good ol’ SB. Good times indeed.

Ryan had the coolest costume. He got so much love from it. Even got a free guiness from a piece of bacon!
I won’t write any more about the weekend. Look at the pictures in the gallery. They speak volumes.
Kaki King
I have been a fan of Kaki King ever since I heard about her. Her second album was released recently. Look what I got on Saturday in a little package from Georgia.
My friends always call me David Vo. If they introduce me to their other friends, they say “This is Joe, John, Barry, and David Vo.” Even groups that have never met each other call me David Vo. I am not sure why. It’s weird. Anyway, look at what Kaki signed my CD! Eerie.
The Next Bacardi Ad
I was using Hello to chat with my friend Sharon. She sent me a picture and I remarked it looked like an alcohol ad you’d see in Maxim.
What do you think?

Seaweed and Apples
I received my 4G 40GB iPod yesterday. I proceeded to drag my entire MP3 folder over to it before I left for the show. An hour later I realized that was a dumb move since I probably have more music on that. Meaning, when I get back home, it would have stopped at letter “L” or so and I would be missing out on some favorite tunes. Format and a couple of hours later, it was kosher.
I hate iTunes. I hate it so much that I bought Anapod. When the Creative Zen first came out, the software sucked so bad that a company called Red Chair Software made their own program for music management called Notmad. Since then, they have created special software for each of the major players. The iPod is no exception. The product works very well and the interface is familiar to me since I was an avid Notmad user.
I noticed that the iPod cannot turn off if you have it plugged into a firewire port and your computer is off.
Thanks Apple!
Today I took my iPod to work. I loaded up the drivers and installed the latest iTunes. I wanted to listen to some music here and organize/fix tags in my “spare time.” Guess what? If you setup your iPod on any computer, it FORMATS it. 40 GIGS gone.
Thanks Apple!
I went to see Kelp at Velvet Jones. They ended up playing about 1.5 hours after they were originally slated to start. I like their music. The band that opened for them was called Spray Face. They were more rock with a surf edge. What’s interesting is that the lead singer is the son of some famous 60’s surf music legend. And another band member is Frankie Avalon’s son! He looks just like him. When we walked in, there were two hot girls sitting at the end of the bar. One of them was particularly appealing with her librarian Lisa Loeb (sp?) glasses. *Growl*
Went home at midnight, and slept 3.5 hours later. I woke up and got to work on time though. Amazing!
The “Friend Zone” from Bash.org
quote:
DragonflyBlade21: A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you’re a great guy, but I don’t like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we’re not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we’re going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn’t work out, we’ll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.
Today’s Lesson
Today I was schooled by Nick, twice. First he informed me that a 50 inch TV would be perfect for our living room. I notified him that I would get right on track to buying it. Then he taught me that my remark about showering was done in very poor taste and everyone else thought so too. I had to thank him for looking out for me:
“Thanks for helping me out. – Peace, David”
To which he replied, gracefuly:
“it’s all good. it was an honest mistake. 
”
And that, ladies and gentlemen are what buddies are for.
