“God, how we get our fingers in each other's clay. That's friendship, each playing the potter to see what shapes we can make of each other.”

Best Jump Photo Ever
That's all. I love this picture. Such extension. Perfect timing. What's not to like?
I would like to publicly thank Silvs for changing his music to some punk just to mix it up.
You see, everyday I come into the firm and organize their pleadings. It's not exactly brain surgery but it's good experience. It is however, sometimes as exhilarating as watching grass grow. (Although I don't think anyone has ever actually done that)((what I do know is that when they use time lapse video and show you how grass or plants germinate and grow... it is in fact quite captivating... I digress))
At any rate, I always come in, get in my backroom/dungeon area and crank out some launchcast radio from the good people at yahoo.com. Well, you can imagine my dismay yesterday as it was a National Internet Radio Silence Day to raise awareness for some bill that could spike internet royalty fees per song on these stations by 400% to 1600% putting many of these services out of business. Where you usually clicked "Listen to my station" there was simply a pop-up that allowed me to enter my zip code, giving me the contact information for my Senators and Congressman. Well... I suppose the "Silent Day" worked to raise awareness, but failed to either a) call me to action by actually contacting these politicians or b) resolve my working in silence.
Where would I turn? How would I get through the day?
Rollin' In My 6-4 was the answer. Chris Silva was the answer. For that I thank you Silva-- Slayer of Silence, Bludgeonor of Boredom, Proselyter of Peaceful Tunes.
Thank you 80s Medley. You have given your life for a worthy cause. I am grateful, but not sad to see you go. If I heard Toto sing about Africa again... I just night go insane.
I welcome the new music, but rest assured the 80s Medley will always have a special place in my heart.
so we tried to do something like this for amys wedding pictures... but we attempted the whole bridal party (there were 16 of us) and obviously didn't fit. also, with us girls in heels, we were a bit timid to actually jump off the ledge ... so we just jumped in place. needless to say i don't think it turned out as classic as this pic.
p.s. dave i feel your pain. i organized pleadings for the past 2 years. however, i didnt live in a dungeon (which was nice for social reasons) however, impeded on my effective radio listenings. i'm glad that silv came through for you, but just so you know, some of did actualy work in slience.
Yeah . . . and i'm pretty sure your wife put food on the table doing pleadings for a majority of the time she has worked at said law firm without complaining . . . too much :)
Oh I aint complainin'... I've worked way crappier/boring jobs than this. Plus, there's this hot chick two doors down from me on the right... Davey likey. I'm just sayin the music was a life-saver.
