Hey, I’ve got more eBay auctions running this month because I need to buy a new turntable as soon as possible. My roommates are leaving, and what good is being a record collector without a turntable? I also have to get a new cellphone because Verizon has no coverage where I work or where I live. If you don’t have an eBay account, you can always make a donation to the website — normally they’re used to cover hosting fees, or to get drunk — by using the PayPal link at the top left column of this page. If not for me…do it for yourself? Otherwise you’re surely going to hell. My goal is $350, which is a bit of a reach considering my best month ever for donations brought me thirty-five dollars…but maybe if I sell out a little bit and post more popular MP3s, it won’t be such a reach! I guess I’m really going to have to step up my blog entries for the next few weeks. It’s time to get back to basics: vulgarity, uncouth social remarks, top ten lists and unabashed hatred for all things pop-culture. Without question, I will personally be sending special ‘Thank You’ gifts to everyone who donates. Even if you live in Lithuania or Sri Lanka. For serious this time, Mike M. Cost be damned! I’ll be keeping track of my progress on this handy dandy chart I just created in Photoshop:
Here’s a weird one for you. I received an e-mail from Podcast Jack yesterday containing a re-sequenced version of the first official Obscure References album Carpal Tundra. This is not to be confused with the ??? CD-r, which is limited to 27 copies, each one being untitled and uncredited (I don’t even think they have ID3 tags attached to the sound files). The ??? CD-rs will be available only at top secret locations (try east-side hipster coffeeshops or record stores) in Los Angeles. Carpal Tundra, on the other hand, will be packaged beautifully with artwork, inserts, and even pun-filled song titles! Why? Because that’s what we decided on that one time when we were really high watching [Adult Swim] cartoons in my basement. Yup…those were the good old days. In any event (or maybe in every event) Carpal Tundra will be available through this website (only 100 copies) in the next month or so. More details as they emerge from the ether…
