Very interesting video of an Australian sub sinking a U.S. Warship during co-op training off the coast of Hawaii in June-July 2008.

sometimes i wonder
I love Cake’s music and they’re great in concert. But sometimes I wonder about some of their messeges they put out:
A single stadium concert releases 500 to 1000 tons of carbon dioxide, which is between 25 and 50 times more than the average American produces in a year. Perhaps it is time for bands to just stop touring already?
The article also goes on to say this in the same paragraph:
That number does not even take into account fans’ transport, the immense amount of garbage produced or any fire-spewing Kiss-style pyrotechnic displays.
Maybe we should all just stop breathing instead.

shot in the back
Haven’t done much posting lately, obviously.
Haven’t done much of anything actually lately.
Reason being, the back issue’s I posted about. The MRI results were basically what I expected. My back is torn up. Two bulding discs and a tear. So I was sent in for an epidural steroid shot. And boy was that fun.
The doc told me the possible side effects, and I got a few of them. Muscle cramping, water retention headache (for one week straight, not even the vicodin was knocking it out), hot flashes, and sleepless nights. Of course Meg had to throw the ‘You going through menopause?’ joke in. ha… ha…
Just got my 2nd one yesterday in the series of three. So far not doing as bad as the first one though, but its only been 24 hours, and that’s about when all the stuff kicked in.
Back to the couch for me.
