She's got a smile, that it seems to me...

...you know the rest of the song. But have you ever heard it sound so pretty?

Man, it's become like a reflex. I was on craigslist, just perusing the "Events" section, and I see this...had to post it. This song has nothing to do with anything...other than it's wonderful and weird, not unlike Craigslist itself.

Manly Bike for Sale

Bike for sale
What kind of bike? I don't know, I'm not a bike scientist. What I am though is a manly guy looking to sell his bike. This bike is made out of metal and kick ass spokes. The back reflector was taken off, but if you think that deters me from riding at night, you're way wrong. I practiced ninja training in Japan's mount Fuji for 5 years and the first rule they teach about ninja biking is that back reflectors let the enemy know where you are. Not having a rear reflector is like saying "FUCK YOU CAR, JUST TRY AND FIND ME".
The bike says Giant on the side because it's referring to my junk, but rest assured even if you have tiny junk that Giant advertisement is going to remain right where it is. I bought this bike for 300 dollars from a retired mercenary that fought in both World War 1 and World War 2 and had his right arm bitten off by a shark in the Phillipines while stationed there as a shark handler. When he sold it to me I had to arm wrestle him for the honor to buy it. I broke his arm in 7 places when I did. He was so impressed with me he offered me to be his son but I thought that was sissy shit so I said no way.
The bike has some rusted screws, but that just shows how much of a bad ass you are. Everyone knows rusted screws on a bike means that you probably drove it underwater and that's bad ass in itself. Those screws can be replaced with shiny new ones, but if you're going to go to that trouble why not just punch yourself in the balls since you're probably a dickless lizard who doesn't like to look intimidating.
The bike is for men because the seat is flat or some shit and not shaped like a dildo. If you like flat seated bikes you're going to love this thing because it doesn't try to penetrate your ass or anything.
I've topped out at 75 miles per hour on this uphill but if you're just a regular man you'll probably top it out at 10 miles per hour. This thing is listed as a street bike which is man-code for bike tank. The bike has 7 speeds in total:
Gear 1 - Sissy Gear
Gear 2 - Less Sissy Gear
Gear 3 - Least Sissy Gear
Gear 4 - Boy Gear
Gear 5 - Pre-teen Boy Gear
Gear 6 - Manly Gear
Gear 7 - Big Muscles Gear
I only like gear 6 and 7 to be honest.
Additionally, this tool of all immense men comes with a gigantic lock to keep it secure. The lock is the size of a bull's testicles and tells people you don't fuck around with locking up your bike tank. It tells would-be-thieves "Hey asshole, touch this bike and I'll appear from the bushes ready to club you with a two-by-four".
Bike is for 150 OBO (and don't give me no panzy prices)

Better late than never
There were a lot of songs I totally neglected to blurb about last year,b ut I won't subject you to all of them, not even I have THAT much free time. Here are two that I definitely should have posted at least once, but didn't.
I love the juxtaposition of these two, which is why I am combining them in one post. The 70's influenced multi-part harmonies of Grand Archives next to the Beck-like funked up indie rock of Benji Hughes...enjoy.

The Butler Stands For All Of Us

Hearing new music from Robert Pollard doesn't get me as excited as it used to. Mostly because he is just SO prolific...my heart - long abused by draft beer and drive-thru cuisine - needs to stay on a mostly even keel these days. If I got excited every time Mr. Pollard released a new album, I'd be a walking heart attack. But I still smile a quite smile, and hurriedly rush for my earbuds when I get new music from the former Guided By Voices frontman.
Sitting here now listening to his latest, 'The Crawling Distance' which will be released on January 20th. He can still write an obscurely beautiful alt-rock song like nobody's business I am happy to report...here is one of my favorites from the new record.

head concussion - m4m - 50 (columbus)

ok, this is a real long shot and you will think i am crazy which is probably not far from the truth but here it goes. back in 1976, yes, 76, i was taking theatre classes at osu and was working behind the scenes on a play.(and i even graduated!) you were one of the actors and you came in the second night of the show disoriented and walked around on stage in a daze and couldnt remember your lines. i took you to the emergency room and it turned out you had a concussion from a fall earlier that day. a few years later we ran in to each other at eastland mall and you remembered me and thanked me for helping you. you popped in to my head for some reason today and was wondering if you were still around and how you are doing and if you took up acting as a career. if you see this, lol, tell me what your part was in the play so i know it is you!
******
May be time to move on...the guy with the concussion from 32yrs ago probably has. Not that I don't appreciate your last ditch effort at idealistic love.

Monthly Mix Tape
Mission Statement
I guess you're old enough to know.
Kids out on the east coast.
Roughly twenty years old.
Got coaxed out by a certain perfect ratio.
Of warm beer to the summer smoke.
And the meat loaf to the billy joel.
Certain songs they get so scratched into our souls.
She goes low on the seats when she gets high in her car.
She looks shallow but shes neck deep in the steamy dreams of the guys along the harbor bars.
She's pulling out her shirttails and jacking up her socks.
Stern and stoned and confident, coming up towards the jukebox.
Born into the only songs that everybody finally sings along.
B-1 is for the good girls.
It's only the good die young.
C-9 is for the making eyes.
It's paradise by the dashboard light.
D4 is for the lovers.
B12 is for the speeders.
And the hard drugs are for the bartenders and the kitchen workers and the bartender's friends.
And they're playing it again.
Ellen Foley gives us hope.
Certain songs they get scratched into our souls.
I guess you're old enough to know.
Kids out on the west coast are taking off their clothes.
Screwing in the surf and going out to shows.
They get high and ride around in gtos.
I guess you're old enough to know.
CERTAIN SONGS THEY GET SCRATCHED INTO OUR SOULS.
