No seriously, I want to know!

One of my friends got a record player for Xmas and was super ecstatic about it. I was over at his house Thursday evening and got to see it and his excitement over it. He played a song by Tom Waits, who I had never heard of before until that night. When I told him I enjoyed the music he talked about the amazingness that is Mr. Waits and let me listen to this song:





"I see youuuuuuu!"
This is probably one of the creepiest things I have ever listened to. I love it. And Tom Waits. I'm listening to one of his albums, "Mule Variations" and will work my way backwards to some of his others after I give this one a few more listenings. Awesome, awesome, awesome! It's always fun when a friend introduces you to great music that's been around for awhile but you just never had the opportunity to discover it yourself.

Thaaaaaaanks Caio! (He doesn't read this but I'll tell him know next time I see him) =)

  2. Fine, if you must know, I'm building a time machine, but I'm having some huge setbacks. Like my budget is only $18. And it's made mostly of construction paper. And it only goes into present time.

    Also, your creepy death stare needs work. I'm hardly scared or intimidated.

  14. Creepy and cool. I was waiting for the townsfolk to break in with pitchforks and torches and lynch him later to realize he was just really into taxidermy.
