NOW — everyone please keep me in your thoughts because my last trip home got canceled and if this snowstorm prevents me from getting home this weekend, I am going to be...

100 Best Albums of the Decade according to Rolling...
I get shivers just reading down this list. Partially from reflecting on the music itself and partly because I have spent a shit-ton of money on albums in the last ten years.

Birthday gifts for boys:
Boom: If you haven’t heard, Pabst Brewing Co. is for sale, and the asking price is $300 million. In order to get there, they are taking pledges from fans and once the company is actually bought out, you will get a certificate of ownership. Perfect for my college-age little brothers.

Hi Everyone! I’ve been keeping this blog for exactly a year now (over on Blogspot) but have recently switched everything over to Tumblr. My blog is a collection of photos, quotes, and miscellaneous things I find on the internet that catch my eye, as well as various rants, raves, and happenings in my personal life. For my loyal readers from Blospot, thanks for making the switch...
