Miss Piggy – Fuck The Pain Away

Hilarious. Had to share.

Bought A House. Fun With Ableton. Friend Retires.

Nothing new today. I finally signed the last bit of paperwork for the house I’m buying and I’ll be getting the keys to it tomorrow. Yay for me. Here’s a pic.

Getting this is the end of a lot of stress. The place is all packed up and I’m not as… err… fumbling around the internet as normal today. So nothing really new to report on that point of my life. Other than that I’ve just been playing with Ableton Live 7 constantly. I’ve been able to get a lot of hints on productions from some of the music magazines that come out all the time to start really improving on exactly how I’m using the program. The Akai MPD24 is really helping out in that department as well. I’ve almost got the finishing touches on a track that I’ll be posting soon. I just have to make sure that I like it before I put it up.

It was kind of weird today because I had to watch a friend of mine retire from the Navy today. It was kind of striking to me that after 20 years of service to the Navy that all he really got was a small award that he had already received 6 times and a little bit of a goodbye from us. It’s cool though because we’re throwing him a retirement party this Saturday (with your truly DJing all the 80s rock classics). I’ve found that there are a lot of Blue Shirts that get shit on when it comes to retirement because of the extra effort that people have to go through. I’ve got a buddy down in Florida that never received his retirement flag because a certain person didn’t like him enough to file the paper work. I just hope that things go ok for him when he gets out. He helped me out of a weird situation about a year ago and just want him and his wife to get out and be happy.

Being sappy.

Here’s some Navy videos that make me laugh, nice to share them. For those in the military you will find these pretty funny. If your not in the military, well…. prepare to be confused.
