NEW PROJECT!

Jay has announced his new project! It's called...

THE BLACK TIE PARTY

I like the name. Let Jay know if you are interested in auditioning, Mikki, Wyatt and Whitney. I think those are the only people that read this...

WORKED IT OUT

I know I haven't been the best at going to the gym regularly but it's been a real long time for the person I saw last night who had her Motley Crue T-shirt tucked in to her Umbros. I haven't rocked that look since I was a starting forward on the Penfield Lady Chiefs varsity field hockey team. It was hot back then. Especially if you had florescent umbros. Now? Not so much.

THOUGHT BACK TO SIMPLER DAYS

Ah, yes. Simpler days. Before Christian Bale was a serial killer and starved himself to death for roles.

I thought about this movie, which has got to be in my top ten favorite movies of all time, because I saw the female version of Spot Conlon on the train this morning. She even had a newsboy cap on. I see these kind of lookalikes all over the place. Like that time that I saw the african-american James. These people are out there. One time I saw a little kid who was asian and looked just like Jay. You think I'm crazy but it happens! Look, in a city of 8 million people you are bound to run into the mexican version of your mom.

Who's Spot Conlon you ask? Why, he's the hot, tough newsie from the SCARY borough Brooklyn. Apparently, there is a huge newsie cult following that includes the person that made this Spot Conlon tribute video and posted it on youtube:



Ok, now I feel like a pedofile for saying he's hot. Whatevs. I was in high school when this movie came out. At least my youtube account name is not "NewsiesIsLife" "IrisConlon" or my personal favorite "Spotsgoil".

NEW BUBD LYRICS??

I got this in my junkmail today. The subject was "Re: my Domesda". It is pure poetry:

thin for that job, but wisely kept my mouth shut.
It was the great
Nor was it a real pool.
Youve got it. Here we go.
tiny growl is permitted.
You do. And of course you are Jim of the Rats. Welcome, welcome
Youre catching on. After this last criminal assignment for us rum
Before we had time to dwell too long on that thought
The hallway, while being a depressing and drab tone of gray,
We aint goin away.
enough to do just moving himself.
For personal reasons I was happy to hear it, glad that he was still
Floyd and Steengo were ushered reverently into the other vehicle.


Good, huh? I particulary enjoy the incorporation of my favorite name of all time: Floyd. I will name my first child that. Boy or girl. Also, if we ever change the band name I think "Jim of the Rats" might be a good choice. Or, maybe we should just start calling James that.

The rhyme scheme is brilliant. It rhymes "tone of gray" with "We aint goin away"! I love it! Rhyming "still" with "vehicle" is a stretch but still...

ENDED AN ERA

Dear Breakup Breakdown fans,

Our bass player Jay "Knife Fight" "Huff Studler" "Baby Brewski" "Rusty" "Soft Serve" Honstetter has left the band to pursue his own musical ventures. We are sad to see him go but we support him in his creative pursuits! We will keep you posted on those pursuits right on this here blog.

We'll miss you Jay!

Love,
BREAKUP BREAKDOWN

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

I heard some people bitching about the cold weather yesterday. It was the first cold day of winter and it was January 10th and there were complaints. You can't please these people!

UMMM

This blog is no longer about Breakup Breakdown, is it? It's about me and my nail polish. Period.

HOODOO VOODOO AGAIN

Apparently, I'm not the only one who thinks Woody Guthries lyrics are genius. I was at Duane Reade the other day casually browsing the nail polish selection. I picked up one that I thought was pretty and, as I always do, I looked at the color's name: HooDoo Voodoo. I shit you not.



Pretty, huh? I think Woody would really like this color.

THIS IS INTERESTING.
