Obligatory Update

What to say, what to say?

- The big news is something a little birdie told me over the weekend. I've been sworn to secrecy, but what I CAN say is this. When (event I've heard about) officially goes down, myself and at least one person I know by the name of Dok will have a huge fucking cause for celebration.

- With two employees officially off and up out, hours at work are about to become uber-plentiful. I'm scheduled for about 35 this week, and one of my remaining co-workers starts community college next week, with at least six courses to take. Which means, more work for me. And, unlike past jobs, this time I'm so totally up for more work.

In entertainment news...

- Apologies if I mentioned this in my last post, but I'm too lazy to look it up. Apparently, Sony Music is planning a Pearl Jam greatest hits CD. This boils my blood, mainly due to the fact that PJ left Sony late last year. So now, their estranged grabass record label is taking full advantage of partial ownership to make this beloved band seem like sell outs. I'm sure Pearl Jam would not let his happen otherwise. In fact, I'll bet Sony's been chomping at the bit for this cash cow for the last ten years. Enjoy your profits, fuckballs. But, despite owning nearly everything with Pearl Jam's name on it, this is one particular item I can do without in my collection.

- Pulling a 180 and moving on to a rehash that actually MEANS something, Miramax is putting out a 10th Anniversary edition of "Clerks" on DVD September 21st. A hugeass three disc monster of a set (at an MSRP of around $35), this is shaping up to be the must-own DVD of the year. And, for me, a more than fitting way to complete a Kevin Smith collection.
