Ehjay doesn't drive

That doesn't stop me from loving cars though. For American cars my love goes to the Jeep, but my true love, the car I will buy when I win the lottery, is an Aston Martin DB7, although the 9 is HOT.


How can you not love this beautiful specimen of metal? YES.

Phil posted on Facebook how motorcycles > sports cars. I disagree, as I am not motorcycle-y inclined. When I mentioned Aston Martins, he said that the Bentley Azure was better. I disagree, because I do not like my cars to look like boxes.

So I leave it up to you, dear readers. Which car is hotter?

I saw a dead guy today.

No, really, I did.

Long story:
I was going from work to Renssalaer to pick up Emma, who will be here for a couple of days. The bus was being a PITA, stopping at one stop for no particular reason at all, so I texted Emma and we decided she'd take a cab to my house alone. So I got off at Lark St, and went to grab the next 10 back to my house. So I get on it and it's going down Central Avenue like it's supposed to and it got to Henry Johnson Blvd. Right there were flashing cop cars and lights and several guys standing around, including a couple of bike cops. I saw a bicycle lying on the ground, and I saw what looked to be like a sack of something on the ground. As we pulled up in front of the building, I saw a man lying there, with a caved in skull, the top part of his forehead was red, and he was not moving. What was really really frightening to me, besides the part where I had never seen anything like that was really hearing the reactions of everyone else on the bus. They all had the same reaction I did which was basically saying, "Oh my god," and looking, but unable to look away.

It's a little odd.

ehjay doesn't twitter

I don't want a twitter.
I don't need a twitter.

But everyone I know has a twitter.

REMIND ME WHY NOT TO GET A TWITTER.



I am not actually going to get a twitter. I intend to remain the final holdout from Twitter

UGH DEMETRI MARTIN YOU TALENTLESS HACK

My other nemesis, Demetri Martin will be in Albany "performing." He's apparently a notable "person", which I don't quite get. Anyway, I just wanted to let you all know that I've given up on Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, who irritates me far less now that she named her baby Bronx Mowgli, which will lead said child to erase her existence for me. So Demetri Martin, I am coming for you - you talentless hack.

Anyway, I have good news on another front, but I wish to wait for details before I release this information. Also I did laundry yesterday and I officially have decided my next house will be including a washer and dryer or have a laundromat ACROSS the street. No more of this mile rolling suitcase uphill both ways crap. Yes, I have to drag the suitcase pretty damned far.

I also have haiku from two weeks ago Lost, but not last week's or this week's yet. I am a bit behind, I'll admit.

Oh, and while MaggieSox's challenge is over, I'd still like to see what you all think are the best American bands since 2000. It is really really hard to come up with some because most of mine were uh, Canadian. I ended up submitting just Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly.

So...GO.

End of a show...

I saw the four most saddest words in the English language today: Battlestar Galactica Series Finale.

Four years of my life are coming to an end with this show. Not sure I can really explain how important this show is to me, other than to say that I don't really know what will come along and replace it*. Granted, I said the same thing about DS9, but it took five years for BSG to come along.

So sometime in 2014 you'll find me with a new show.


I still love Lost, and I always will, but it doesn't capture my heart like BSG did.

I got the charger to work a bit today, so I'm happy with that. Tomorrow I work with my Katie, so that will be fabulous. And hopefully the new charger will come ASAP.

Stupid Dunkin Donuts. Someone build me a Tim Horton's ASAP.

So I got a package of coupons from Dunkin Donuts a couple of weeks ago and I was all excited cause it's free shit. Like a free coffee every Wednesday (which I gave to my friend Laura cause I didn't think I would use it). And I clipped two specific coupons to use today: the buy one get one free hash browns and 99c medium winter beverage (dunkacino here I come!).

I went to the one on Madison, which has the novelty factor of being inside a quasi strip mall. See, inside this building is a Chinese food place, a Subway, and a DD. It's a little strange, but cool. So I got in line and waited patiently. I get up to the register and the lady tells me I can't use both coupons. No big, I'll just get the hashbrowns and an iced coffee instead of the winter drink. Then she asks me about my free coffee coupon, which is when I remembered it was Wednesday. I told her I didn't have it cause I gave it to someone else, figuring I would never come IN on a Wednesday. So I get my order in and hand her my debit card. THEN she tells me that credit cards aren't working. OHH GOOOD. /bale

Needless to say, I didn't get any hashbrowns or iced coffees. I settled for an asiago sourdough pretzel from Borders and a caramel frappucino from Starbucks. Stupid Dunkin Donuts.

only three americans will get this post

Louis Riel poems on display in Winnipeg.

Kristen: Hey guys, we drove here to see the poems.
Ehjay: hehehe
Kristen: What do you mean we can't see them?
Ehjay: we'll have to "liberate" them
Kristen: lol, yeah
Ehjay: it's what louis would have wanted
Kristen: at the border: Do you have anything to declare?
Yeah, we definitely didn't steal a book of poetry from those Metis three cars back in line.
