As of yet, I've still had no luck finding a version of Superman by
The Clique. I've got to admit, I'm quite taken by the 31.7 second clip from
Amazon, and am desperate to hear the whole thing. It's sort of almost an obsession at this point just to hear the song even once. There was that really crappy version of the song that was used in the
Lotus Notes commercial a few years ago. Some of the more naive
REM "fans" bemoaned that REM had sold out when that song was on the commercial. First of all, they didn't own the rights to the song and even if they did, who the hell cares. I hate people who get upset when their favorite band gets popular and successful or gets a good record deal. Yes, I'm sure any band would much prefer playing
The Roxy to
RFK.
Speaking of concerts, it was exactly one year ago tonight that I saw
U2 at
The Pondin
Anaheim. The concert ended at like 1 am, and then I had to catch a 5:30 am flight to visit my friend in
Washington. I hada layover in
Memphis, TN. During the 45 minutes I was at that airport, I must have seen like 10 people without teeth. No offense to any of
my friends who live there, but I hate
Tennessee. As far as I'm concerned, there should only be 49 states. Tennessee (along with
San Bernardino County) should be kicked out of the Union. Of course, Katie is from San Bernardino County, but she's from
Big Bear, which is an acceptable place to be from. Not that I have a right to talk, since I was born in
29-Palms, but I only lived there for a few months before moving to
Fresno. Oh wait...that's not much better.
Of course, I didn't stay in Fresno for too long. From there we moved to
Camp Lejeune, NC. In case you can't tell, my dad was in the
Marines. From there we moved to
Washington, and then we moved to
Kailua, Hawaii. That was pretty cool, although I was only like 4 when we moved there, and 7 years old when we left. I did go to
kindergarten there, though. Kindergarten was fun, except I had an arch-enemy named Louis-Boy. I swear, I hated that kid.
Ok...this post has been mostly nonsense. My roommate is gone for the weekend, which is good because I needed some "me time". Incidentally, if you ever feel like your life sucks, just check out
this guy's weblog. It's seriously the most depressing thing I've ever seen.
Ok, I think I'll go to sleep now. I've got to find something to do tomorrow, because I don't really wanna have a repeat of last Saturday night, which sucked.
In case you're wondering, I tried to post this last night but something went horribly wrong.
