Medium. I did fairly well on easy, and I think during the first set (Joan Jett, Bad Religion. etc) I got a 5-star on every song on the first try, and either 4- or 5-star for the second set too. It took me about a million times to finally pass "Killer Queen" though, and even when I did it was crappy.
Did you see the setlist for GH2?! I'm most excited for the Matthew Sweet song... Yes!

Everyone should feel pretty :)
Today at work I'm wearing my Tonks Year 5 (Slytherin), maybe I'll take some photos, but basically it's the same thing I wore at the party last Saturday.

If you have nothing to do, you should go to the Uncle Monsterface show in Brooklyn tonight! I want to be there so bad, especially since I have no work tomorrow, but my brother is with me and the show is 21+.
Last night I stopped at the store to see if there were any good movies on sale, and OMFG there was Shock Treatment on DVD!!!!!!!! I didn't even know about it, I've been waiting forever for it. I have the VHS and last I heard there were no plans for it on DVD, but apparently they changed their minds to release it.

I am the punisher. This is simple enough with the current incarnation because all you need is a punisher t shirt, a leather jacket and, this goes for all costumes, the basic bodt type of the character. I'm not as tall or as big as the punisher but I think I do justice to the look. I couldn't find a batman. I could have just gone as the green arrow they're using on smallville, that's pretty much batman. I'm a bitter geek.
Freak, I was up at midnight to say happy birthday to a friend with this weirdest of birthdates and when I saw rocky horror was on at 12:30 it was like, fuck, I'm up longer. I don't watch it obcessivly but it can be fun in the right time of year. Like ace ventura on christmas.

This is a rant and not meant for anyone here.
Some people just do not know how to take advise. Hey buddy, no matter how special you are your situation is likely to be relatable to some previose human experence. And why do I think you're not listening? Because you're still doing it.

I meant that some of the other forum mods have been getting their rather harmless reviews deleted on the grounds of being "abusive" as well.

As for silent movies.
Nosferatu is my personal favourite.

I had one of those big "Symphony" bars that Hersheys puts out, with little crunched up bits of toffee in it. I feel retarded from all the sugar. :-|
And here shortly I get to go into the shop for a while to keep an eye on things while my boss tends to trick or treaters. Yay "Trick or Treat on MainStreet" campaigns.... I hope it rains on all of the little anklebitters.
But then again, most if not all the business on mainstreet have covered walkways out front. DAMN IT.

Very true. Most of the modern horror tends to rely on its "shock-effect". Show as much blood, gore, and dismemberment as possible, and you're bound to create an audience shutting its eyes.
Saw, anyone?
I also just purchased a box set of all of Simon and Garfunkells music.Good stuff. Some of the deepest and at times darkest lyrics you can find.
My favourite Simon and Garfunkel is definetely "the sound of silence", but I'm not well-introduced to their music. Any songs you recommend?

Hmmm, peanut butter...

Anyways, I've been doing a lot of homework and so sometimes I'm stuck on a computer even if I don't want to. Last semester my professor didn't read my essay because it was written. I wanted a change. Oh wells...
Only thing I look up foward now is a little PE at the Y and even then I feel I haven't worked out this pestering little voice inside of me. "Destroy your lap top."
Only when I do go out more I forget that voice.

Leave it to Halloween to afford me my second drunken idiot to beat up downtown. Instead of some bum swinging at me for not giving him crack money, this audacious prick was actually rummaging through my fucking car.
I had just gone upstairs to take a sign down after my shift and I walk back down the stairs not a minute later to see some drunken buffoon in my car. I walked up to him and asked if that was his car. Of course he lied and said it was, at which point I asked why he lied to me. After a brief period of innebriated stammering I told him that it was my car and he had better get the fuck out of my sight. He got up and told me he wasn't taking anything. The fact that he was fucking holding one of my CDs in his hand belied his statement.
At this point, I was pretty pissed. Not only did this guy touch my car, he had the balls to lie to me twice. I grabbed my CD out of his hand and told him to get the fuck out of my sight. He told me that he was just drunk, as if that should have been ample justification. This pissed me off even more, so I punched him in the face. A couple swings later, he was on the ground with a bloody face. I then told him that it would best suit his interests to leave and never come back to my garage again.
Goddamn, I fucking hate people.
Think you're pretty clever...

goddamn insomia... 3:30 and i'm not tired yet...
I have no homework, no work, nothing to worry about, no nothing.
A few weeks ago I was killing myself with a combo of diet pills and caffeine to keep me up and working with research. Now my body is used to sleeping late.
So anyways,
Whoa Gunther... guess you're lucky. Your stuff wasn't stolen and you still have your car.
My friend Adrian got his nifty camcorder stolen and his Jonny Cash and Bob Dillan anthologies too. That was in May.
I even told him the night before to take out his stuff because it could like get stolen. "Oh no, this is a pretty nice neighborhood."
"Mines too, but like 'member when my neighbor had his car stolen?" (My neighbor left the key and ignition on in the morning to heat up the car in the morning-- it was stolen in the 3 to 5 minutes that he went in the house to get water for the windows.)
Goes to show you--
don't. do. dumb. things.
Eh--

I wasn't worried about my car and I still won't be, it's parked right next to my booth. It's pretty tough to steal stuff when you only have a small window of opportunity to do so. And, as that asshole found out, that window closes pretty hard.
Think you're pretty clever...

Maybe it's because I'm not sleeping and crazy thoughts are coming in and out of my head, but...
Alanis Morissette's
Ironc...
I find it ironic that Morissette would write a song titled “Ironic” with no actual irony in it.
OMG
That has to be something short of an epitome.

I know a lot of cops that patrol that area, I told one of them that I saw somebody in my car and he was just like, "I hope you kicked his ass." I think I'll be alright with the law, lol.

Agreed. But then again, he could probably handle himself pretty well against a sober foe anyway. That cop's response was priceless, I must say.... it sounds like something one of the cops in my town would say. Less paperwork for them to deal with.
Last night was interesting to say the least. My boss stood in the open door way of the shop playing banjo to stir up interest, taking small breaks to rest his hands or to hand out candy and business cards. He ran out of candy within the first hour of the event, and as such retreated inside leaving business cards outside on a stool for passers by.
The shop itself closed at 7:00 pm, same time the trick or treat event did. No sooner than I had gotten everything closed up and was ready to go home than some asshole in a white Jeep Wrangler decided to do a screeching movie-style u-turn ON mainstreet, then went back out onto the main road in the wrong direction (one way street) and headed off. My boss just looked at me and said "Somebody had to much candy this evening," and I just shrugged. I got out to the parking lot where my car was, and cops were there interviewing witnesses who apparently were still on mainstreet when the guy did the U-Turn, and I got about a half mile down the road and there was mister white jeep wrangler with two or three of his buddies (all highschool age) standing outside of the car wash with the local patrolmen just pulling up. FUN.

Killer Queen's an ok song. I got beat down when I reached the face-melters. Texas Flood by Stevie Ray Vaughan is one difficult-ass song. I'm trying to nail Bark At The Moon with a perfect 100% on medium since I know I won't be able to get it on Cowboys from Hell. I've been able to get about a 98% on Bark At The Moon, but the quick consecutive triple nots which require pull-offs in the solo always get me :(
