a friend of mine from rochester is moving to L.A. in a week and a half and has been having problems finding a caring home for some amazing furniture he has, here's his message:
Please please read this if you could possibly want furniture!
I have my bedroom set listed on the internet but it is not getting any bites. I MUST get rid of this by Saturday night or it is getting donated to goodwill or something, and that will make me cry! You don't want me to cry do you?
This bedroom set is awesome. The mirror itself is to die for, it's like 5 feet by 4 feet! If you or anyone in town you know might want this PLEASE get a hold of me. I've been asking $275 or best offer at this point. Anything would be better than nothing and this set needs a good home. I will totally even help you out with the moving and lifting. If you buy it from me I will prolly even have access to a moving van on Saturday and can bring it right to your house!
Here are the dimensions, and a couple of pictures:
1 horizontal dresser - 80" wide, 30" high, 20" deep. It has 3 large main drawers down the middle, and has a carved wooden door on either side of the main drawers. Opening the doors reveals another set of 3 smaller drawers, for a total of 9 drawers on this dresser. The best feature though is the mirror that bolts on to the back, it's really really big (see pictures).
1 verticle dresser - 40" wide, 58" high, 20" deep. This dresser actually comes apart in two pieces if you prefer, or stack ontop of eachother. The base has two large drawers the size of the main drawers in the last dresser. The top section has 5 medium sized drawers on the right, and a carved wooden door on the left. Opening the door reveals 5 more small drawers.
1 night stand (2 medium drawers and storage compartment) and 1 headboard for a queen sized bed (only headboard, frame and bed not included). These are all matched and still in very good shape (only minor bumps you'd expect after over 25 years of use).

the curse of 242Category: weirdness
warning: reading this may subject you to the curse of 242.
on a good note though, it's not a bad curse, it's just weird.
well, i'm assuming that this all started with front 242 but i don't know too much about it beyond my own history.
when i first moved into the city and started hanging out with the claremontians, b.s and b.c to be vaguely specific, the mystery of 242 was presented to me by these guys going 'oh, 242!' any time it was anywhere, which actually was quite often. on a clock, on tv in a video game, on a sign....where ever.
in discussion i discovered that these guys didn't really get it either other than that they both do/did listen to a bit of 242 in their lives and it helped shape them into the music that they listened to and made in their lives.
now, i had only recently learned of front 242 and had one of their albums which was ok. i mean, they are pretty old, seeing as headhunter and welcome to paradise were made when i was 8 years old!
anyway, that's when it started.
242 is everywhere. the number i mean. and it can't just be coincidence, i don't believe that anymore. i can't explain enough how many times a week i see that number. example: yesterday it came up four times. the first was while i was waiting for the bus, a van w/.....oh shit, what's it called.....gerber vision, come bill, help me out from your rainbow spite days......anyway, like the huge guy adds on all the buses, went by with it's phone number all over it and the last three digits were 242. then, around noon i was on the phone with a customer talking about rug pads and when i hung up the phone, the screen said 2:42 as the length of our phone conversation. in the afternoon, i was doing some stuff on one side of the store, totally oblivious to the time, walked the length of the store to our office to have a drink of my soda which was next to the clock, when i picked it up the clock changed from 2:41 to 2:42 right then and there. granted 2:42 happens twice a day but during one week i'll usually look at a clock when it's that time 4 or 5 times! the last was when i was on the bus. i'm a headphone wearer while riding because i can't stand the background conversation. well, i was on the bus for about 20 minutes on my way home when my batteries died abruptly, which was ok cause i alwas carry extras. anyway, before i got in the fresh ones, i could hear the dude infront of me talking into his cell (more like shouting) and damned if he didn't say 'no, 242. 2 4 2, it's a blue house. blue!' which made me smile because it was freaking 242 again.
so yeah, idk, it's something that happens in my life. i must have subconsciously pick it up from b.c. and b.s. amongst others but i don't know for sure. i mean, why is the clock in madden football, in fact in real football i've seen it a few times too, on 242? why is there always a car in front of me at a stop light with 242 in it's plate? this morning, what prompted this was i had 2420 profile views, there it is agan 242.
have any of you dealt with this particular phenominon?

chai teaand not tia chi.
that is currently what i am drinking.
well, it's monday. i'm at the store. just me, some old school moby before he completely sold out and 1000 area rugs.
so it's been a bit since i blogged on here and there's probably a million and one excuses i could make as to why i haven't but why lie? i haven't felt like it. plain and simple.
at least in the meantime the weather has warmed.
'do you think the weather will hold?'
'no, i think it's gonna stop!'
so anyway, getting to leave job early today which is pretty alright. gotta haul home some of my moving boxes. woot.
and i just spilled hot water all over my hand. sigh.
well, i'm in a pretty good mood today for some reason. maybe it's the warm temperature, idk. rocked out to sequencer by covenant on the bus. definately one of my all time top 5. not that i'll be able to list the others now, but still. the music i make is, i believe, on a machine more advanced than that of covenant from when they made sequencer, and yet, they sound so much cooler. then again, they do have a lot more practice than i.
now that my boss' daughter is gone from the store and i'm in total control, i love my ability to listen to what ever. now i have an apop song playing, it's awesome. i don't know whether to hang rugs or dance.
well, it's still a little early in the day for dancing.
found a new owner for my poor poor car yesterday. glad to be rid of it but sad at the same time.
oh, whatelse. did nothing last night after painting at the new place, played a little oblivion and went sleep. played with my cat for a while. i wanted to get up a bit earlier today and stop at the bank to deposit my birthday checks from my fam but once again, i didn't. then again, i need the money in a few weeks so by leaving it in check form, i can't spend it so not a bad thing right?
why am i hungry?
i ate yesterday.
i have terrible eating habits. i eat like once a day if that. i'd say on average in a 7 day week (as opposed to one of those 9 day weeks) i eat five of those days and just once.
see, before i was in the air force i was a heavy dude. my whole life. if any of you were over weight for high school, you probably are aware of what that can do to a kid. anyway, when i lost it all in the air force (they have a great workout program called get up at 4am and start running!) i was determined to not put it all back on. but i hate working out, i have no work out motivation what's so ever. so i just learned to not eat, which in of it's self i believe would be some type of eating dissorder.
oh well. i smoke too much, i drink too much, i don't eat or sleep enough. i'm probably not gonna make it to retirement age.
meh.
i suppose if i had a reason to actually want a long life i'd be totally capable of changing my habits, but a lot of the time right now in my life i feel like 'eh, what's the differance?'
seabound just came on, huzzah! idk why i put this song in here. 'with out you' it's kind of depressing to a hopeless romantic. it's a release from the poisonous friend single, which is still my favorite seabound disk. good haujobb remix on there, the third version of poisonous friend is the best version in my opinion. but actually, this band called fluke does a remix of, i believe it's call control......hmmm, maybe contact. anyway, that's the best ever!!!! so kick ass. if i like it so much i should probably lean it's name huh??
well, yesterday my boss was in for about 45 minutes. she had her chemo so she was really out of it. luckily she's on the weakest level of chemo she's ever been on and her hair isn't gonna fall out for the third time. it is adamantly refusing. anyway, like i said, she was pretty out of it, so i didn't bug her w/ store crap as there really was none anyway. so we talked about john cusak movies for 40 mins.
being 27 now in 07, i was raised, like so many of us 20 something odd balls, on john cusak movies. i personally blame john cusak for a lot of my way of thinking about love and life and relationships. he made the geeky hopeless romantic into a novel yet tangeble protagonist who you really want to win in the end. the problem is that he generally does win. going at life with the john cusak 80's hopeless romantic mindset ultimately just makes you cynical about love and life, as when you follow the patten you typically see that yes indeed, good guys do finish last.
ahh, the world.
i need a new book or two to read. i'm stumped. got two really good ones from my mom for xmas, but was done w/ both of them by the second saturday in january. then i reread the history of narcotics. then i read house of leaves again. then i read dune again. just got my copy of the 48 laws of power back from my dealer, but i think i'm gonna pass on that one again for now.
i need some cool non fiction.
any suggestions if you bothered to read this far?
i have this book about the nazi's and hitler';s obsession with the occult, documenting everything they did before, during and after ww2 concerning it. it's awsome and totally freaky. they had some uber seriously fucked up plans. i forget it's exact name, but you should find it if you google nazi's and the occult. spectacular reading. i've been thinking about finding a book about the ottoman empire, seeing as it ruled a huge part of the world for almost 500 years. the last great empire before the world was changed by the great war.
really, looking at history, ww1 and ww2 really did change the course of history quite substantially. people were less isolated and more connected after that. idk, i'm sure it could be my entire thesis in college for history. but i just found out last night i didn't get excepted.
i also heard this morning that another friend of mine won't beable to move southward and go to college this years either. thank god hydro got into where he wanted and we all didn't come up short.
blech, well, ok, this is once again long but fuck it. not butt fuck it.
endin' it today on new order.
ohh you've got green eyes, oh you've got blue eyes, oh you've got greeeeyyy eeeyyyeees

It is baffling to think that Brian Eno could revolutionize music the way John Cage could on the crappy equipment he had in the 70's. Or how Thomas Dolby was able to sing harmonies with himself because of his crappy, homemade equipment. Even John Cale made Nico sound amazing with just a dinky harmonium, not even real electronic equipment.
It boggles the mind, so don't feel too bad about what covenant can do.

Down with love the flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love the root of all midnight blues
Down with things that give you that well-known pain
Take that moon wrap it in cellophane.
Down with love let's liquidate all its friends
The moons, the Junes, the roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love yes take it away ... away.
Away ...
Far away ...
Give it back to the birds and the bees and especially the Viennese.
Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs and down with cupid
Brother ... let's stuff that dove
Down with love.
Down with love let's liquidate all its friends
The moons the Junes the roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day

In terms of (e:Jenks) mom always waking up at the same time. That makes sense since each persons body has an inside clock of its own (a figuretive one). But once she noticed the patern there is a good chance that if she didn't wake up at that exact time or if she didn't see the clock at that exact time her mind might forget that and only remember the time of 333. It is also posible that the mind once it sees a patern will repeat that pateran as a false memory. But in terms of 333 I do know someone who had that address and maybe even a second person. I myself allways notice when it is 420 not that I'm a 420er myself. Usaly if I see it on something I will notice it well the same can be said of 69 also but most numbers I just discount. I maygo to see 23 today not sure, if I do that might change my perspective. I'm not saying your mother jenks didn't wake up at that time, I'm saying sometimes our own mind tricks us.
cool, good input all around so far. you, metalpeter, are probably right. these thoughts have crossed my mind as well in the past.
you're right about the buses too! lol
For years my mom swore she would wake up at 3:33 every night. No alarm, just all of the sudden she'd be awake and would look at the clock and it was always 3:33. Weird.
Not that I have seen it but it is the same idea in that movie 23. That being said I belive that the number 242 apears no more then any other number you see. It is just that you have heard people talk about the number so now your mind notices it when you see it. If you do something and the clock says 3:00Pm or the lincanse plate is 578 it dosn't stick out but when you see those numbers it sticks out. For some people this happns with 420. It like when you wait (me also) for a bus and more buses always pass you on the other side before your bus comes. The reason for that is if your bus gets there first then you can't see the other buses get there. But when your bus comes you don't go why didn't three buses get here before mine. That is also the way psyics work. They tell you a lot of stuff and a lot of it is wrong or dosn't happen but the few things that do are so powerfull to your mind that you think wow they really know me and thats awesome. What is happening is really just a form of perception. Or maybe you should just play that number as the 3 digit everyday.
For me it's eirther 11:11 or 1:11. Although I have heard that it is a good sign when you see the 1's and one should make a wish upon seeing it on a clock...
ha! that's weird.
some one in a club tonight has stolen my idea.
or, well, ok, so not my idea but still.
Yeah... that sounds familiar. :::link:::
