then she got LOW LOW LOW LOW LOW LOW....


Okay, so first she brings up assassination this afternoon by referencing RFK, then later in her explanation of her comments, she says that the Kennedy's were just on her mind on account of Teddy's recent medical problems. 
That's some multi-exploiting right there.
This chick is toast.

who needs democracy



So, I'm just watching Die Hard 2 on HBO HD and I totally forgot that Fred Thompson is in it! He completely undermines Dennis Franz's authority EVERY time. It's wonderful. Like a window into a future that will never be.

Thompson/Franz '08!

Also, "just the fax, ma'am" probably the best line in the history of these kinds of movies. Well, I guess you can debate that point if you want.

new site, and if you need to know anything about landscaping...



Be sure to check out my old domain...you know the one that I lost because the company disappeared and despite the fact that I paid for it they didn't register me as the admin...so over it...
ANYWAY, at least it's being put to good use.

As for the new site--which technically isn't all about me--I've got some placeholder pages up for now and we're about to shoot some stuff in the next couple of months so hopefully it'll be a productive summer.

And yes, I'm the best web designer ever.

Forget the 15 minute rule, two drink minimum...



You know you have a great job when you have to be a little drunk to do it. I can speak to this because I was a dogwalker for a while. I'm surprised that more teachers aren't busted for being sauced at work, I know I had my suspicions growing up. This guy needs a break, he was just trying to give the kids a little music during their lunch...busting out his sax and blowing some sweet sounds their way. Give him a little more time and he could have been regaling them with tales of his ex-wife and how he wants to start dating again, but just hasn't found the energy at his age. Then some sweet little girl, maybe an aspiring musician herself, would set him up with her mom by being intentionally bad so he has to call a parent-teacher conference.
They'd make a movie out of it and it would star Ryan Reynolds.

Or the guy's a wino. He was even slurring in his interview with the news.

hilarious state of my website




So for more than two years I've had the website, lovelandon.com. Go ahead. Click on it. Do it, and then come back here. I'll wait.

...

Hilarious, right? So because it says "love" in the title, it's gotta be a dating site, and because "land" is in my name it's also has to do with real estate?

Anyway, back to me. Before the ridiculous placeholder site you saw a minute ago, that was my website. I had videos on there, had some contact info, and hosted some music for my now mostly defunct country music blog.

Unfortunately the company I bought the site through disappeared and all efforts to contact them to get things straightened out have been for not. They list false addresses and disconnected phone numbers and no emails have been returned. Why is this a big deal? Because when I bought the site, they listed themselves as the administrative contact.

The little scamps.

So, while I'm working on getting my web bidness back together this blog will have to suffice. I'll post the videos that were on the website--though everything is on the myspace too--and there's more to follow in the coming months. Who knows...maybe I'll update this and write regularly.

Right.

Drinking Games





I went to a Fourth of July party the other day...the fourth, I believe...and everyone had a good time celebrating this country's independence in the usual way, getting blind drunk with strangers.
My only problem with the day's festivities was that most of our time was spent playing silly drinking games. There was an ex frat guy there who was not comfortable drinking unless he had to complete some sort of task beforehand, be it flipping a card, throwing a ping pong ball, etc.

And here is where Landon loses immediately. I don't play drinking games. I never have. I never wanted to. I don't like regular games. I don't need a game to structure my drinking.

Most people think the point of drinking games is to get really drunk much faster...and that's not where I take issue with the concept. I can get there just as quick. I actually just don't want the inconvenience of rules impeding on any of my already well established bad habits.

Several people have agreed with me saying that after a certain point, either after college, or upon entering the "real world" in some way, that a 25 or 26 year old individual should be able to mature beyond the point of needless "partying" (I hate that word) or whatever.
I don't necessarily agree with that, but I do think that after a certain point those frat guys who endured so much hazing and night after night of ridiculous drinking should graduate and mature into just regular old heavy drinkers. That old standby alcoholic.
