Nice.

Seriously, though - I recently discovered that my subscription provides me with free, unfettered access to their archives back to issue one in 1925. This is something I would really enjoy getting at on the plane. Would the right way to do this be the iPad? It seems like it'd be a pain in the ass on an iPhone. Also, I don't know if I'd have to pay extra to get it offline. That's probably the hitch in the giddy-up.

I don't give a shit about having an Iphone, a Droid or any of that other shit.  I wouldn't mind having some sort of e-reader, but I'm not into paying retail for every damn book I read, so I guess if I did I'd be burning up the Gutenberg Project.  And the New Yorker archives, which I think they also sell on DVD for about 40 bucks, FWIW.

I remember they had it on a hard drive for the longest time for like $100, which I always wanted to pull the trigger on, but I figure I already have free access to them, it's just a matter of figuring out how to get it in front of my eyeballs on the plane. Although I usually just get the movie player and watch some piece of shit such as "Date Night".

So is your name really Anarcho-capitalist, but everyone, including my browser, has been misspelling it?

....break out my blue S.A.D. light as it seems like we're going to string together some overcast September days. Maybe Onstad is in a funk from moving to more cloudy climes. Not that the Bay area is like Phoenix, or anything.

lately:
1. multiple girls have been attacked/followed/attempted-raped/raped in my girlfriend's neighborhood. Lately I am having travis bickle style fantasies.
2. i got an evaluation at work that says I'm not friendly enough
3. one of my co-workers who is a little socially awkward has decided that I "need to find a job where I can use my degree," and has been giving me suggestions. Apparently a former coworker left to work at the city library, and so now he keeps reminding me to apply. The library is currently having budget problems to the point that they closed the central branch.
4. another coworker is my age and has a BA in film. I do not know how to befriend girls without it seeming like I am trying to make out with them. Maybe I can just blurt out "HEY I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND" as I walk by one day.
5. the other day I went to a show by Adrian Orange in my friend's weird crazy loft-studio-apartment thing. Unfortunately, adrian orange got so high that he could not perform. He just played fragments of interesting guitar parts, and murmured. His back-up singer stood perfectly still, looking at the floor, and occasionally repeated words that he said. I thought it was funny, but other people found it more "pathetic."
6. I saw Wavves, and guess what, they were immature douchebags. Also it was kind of a boring show. My GF and her roommate had a great time, and were so close that my gal ended up actually sitting on the stage.
It was kind of an awkward thing afterwards when they were talking about it, and it came up how every guy kept asking if my girlfriend was OK, while ignoring her roommate. It must be pretty rough to be the roommate who is not the cutest thing ever to walk the earth.
I tried to get up to where they were, but I was being crushed so much that I couldn't enjoy it. I was drenched in other dudes' sweat.

lately my fixation is the fact that fancy office-working dudes in Saint Louis do not realize that button-down collars are not for suits.

Man you caught on fast. The problem is that button down collars are basically the only thing you can buy in discount stores. I'm serious, 90% of the shirts out there have these button down collars and it drives me insane.

Sweet, put it in the crank-winder file.

Counselor's got a lot on his mind, yo. Can't be worrying about keeping those dang ol' collars in check when there is JUSTICE to dispense.
