hello from the studio!

… i’m afraid it is happening again. only this time… i don’t have an off studio day until sunday!! i’ll have to come up with something… goodness knows what will happen if i skip an entire week. most likely i’ll be fired. this week is particularly insane because we’re trying to finish all the vocals in addition to finishing up the tracks for their final evaluation… then i get a few days off to sit with the songs and mull them over before we make our final changes. ahh!!

but back to the point– ahh!! i’m sorry! again! and this time if i make an apology video it will seem so …. done. *sigh* hopefully i’ll find a moment during the week to put up something fun. thank you all for being so patient and lovely.

oof this feels so bad leaving you with nothing exciting. but i have to go play some sounds on the song i wrote in costa rica (figured i’d make you work for it…).

ok… ummm….

oh i know. i can tell you that i finally lost my 2 toenails.

LOVELY. what am i doing. get out. quick.

!!!!

@thuff7: Vegas is great tonight… it’s 56 degrees here – nice and comfy for this time of year. & surprisingly enough, i didn’t hear too many sirens today.

around that age, you’re right. my niece is around that age & if she sees me with headphones on, she wants to listen. one day, i was listening to my japanese lessons & so i put the headphones on her & she was repeating everything. hehe… she now knows how to identify some of her body parts.

@avweije: i see you!

@Daniel_Baird: aha! someone from the future!! hey, i used to be from the future too… can i ask where abouts in this world you are??

@Alexpham:

it’s either my cats or my kids or their middle names . . . but I set it up so long ago and automated the logins from our laptops, so I never use it until the iTouch needs it to set up YouTube.

Oy. Too much trouble to hit reset.

Hope this helps!!!

Hey, I swear I just saw your picture on Kina’s facebook fan list??? Was browsing around seeing other fans. Full length pix, just standing? I don’t know why I remember that. odd. I’m bad with names.

avweije said on...

December 4, 2008

darnit, everybody sees me in here :-|

@g3mini: if I ever make it to the WSOP final I’m staying at your place then!

@thuff7: I don’t actually, although I spent a lot of time on the beach and at the lake (not the duck pond, veerse meer lake). I had had some surgery on my left ear when I was a kid and need earplugs for showering and swimming, so watersports are not something I do a lot.

maryannee said on...

December 4, 2008

@Alexpham: hahaha whoa! Never seen that before lol.

@thuff7: Do kids get confused? They learn a foreign language and then in school they need to speak english. That’s what happened to one of my brothers. He knew a different language and had trouble in school and mixed it up with english.

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7: i told my sister she should start teaching her a different language.

is what pacific time??

i’m enjoying it as much as i can… how’s your evening??

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@avweije:

Well, the island looks wonderful. Lots of neat farm fields, quaint villages. How is the climate? It really looks like you take good care of the land there.

Way cool. I visited Holland today!!! I love to travel . . .

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@avweije: haha… yeah, just let me know!

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@maryannee:

Well, yes, I guess so. But the kids I know who have troubles are the ones whose families speak a foreign language (usually Chinese around where I live) and never really learn to communicate with the other children. That’s tough.

g3mini said on...

we are about to break the last blog record!!!!

Daniel_Baird said on...

Hey hey my avy is there :D cheers guys

confused newbie said on...

December 4, 2008

600!

avweije said on...

December 4, 2008

@maryannee: my dad was dutch and my mom was english, I grew up in holland, but my mom spoke mostly english for our earlier years, so my brother and I grew up bilingual and never really had any problems with it.

I was quite good in speaking german at a younger age too, cause we used to go there a lot on holidays. I think you pick it up easier then, but maybe need to use it enough to make it work.

confused newbie said on...

December 4, 2008

@Daniel_Baird:

DANG!!!!!!!! You got 600!!!!

confused newbie said on...

December 4, 2008

newbie got beaten by a newbie (assume DB is a newbie?)

avweije said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7: it is a great place to live :) love going to the beach, love being around water and it’s nice and quiet here too. As for the climate, it’s like most of holland, lot of changing weather, quite some rain, wind, sun, we had some wet snow today here. When I was younger we could iceskate every year, but haven’t been able to for a long time now.

The land looks so good cause we are so close to the sea, which helps the soil and then I think we are pretty knowledgable in holland when it comes to farming.

As an example, my mom lives 15 minutes from here (more inland), she gave me some plants that wouldnt take off at her place, dug them in the ground and within a week they took off here.

Most anything will grow here.

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7: Kina has the ferret allergy & the ferret belongs to Misa’s roommate. just to clear that up…

@Daniel_Baird & newbie: picking just two is kinda hard to do…

Daniel_Baird said on...

December 4, 2008

@g3mini: i dont have a fav or two for that matter just love them all

avweije said on...

December 4, 2008

goldfish so far is one of my favs

@Daniel_Baird: close is good enough for me :) I’m in holland if you hadn’t picked up on that yet and as for doing some covers, I am interested since I’m doing a few too, not good, but fun for learning.

Have done boats and birds and goldfish song, but still working on that one.

Daniel_Baird said on...

December 4, 2008

@avweije: wont be anything serious just for fun playing is just a hobby of mine i sing a little too

avweije said on...

December 4, 2008

@Daniel_Baird: check out my vids on youtube if you want, I am just getting the hang of it myself, not “good” yet, but enjoying it.

I can’t sing very good though and I can’t sing when I am playing, not yet, hope I will catch on to that someday though.

Alexpham said on...

@maryannee:

Hey, I’m on late 2nite. The fam is fine. Everyone in their prime. Jut carried Alex to bed after conking out on the couch. Read a bedtime story to Nathan after he looked at some bla(h)gs. He’s a big reader and loves to see what people say here–corrects spelling and asks about grammar!! Mama G would be proud!!

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@g3mini:

thanks, g3!!! I remember now! I was just having fun picturing Kina traveling with ferrets!! Some reason, it made a funny image in my mind!

maryannee said on...

December 4, 2008

@Alexpham: I guess I would try to make a shirt of my own since I haven’t bought a shirt yet:(. Like angloman did in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAMnReuMqxo&feature=related. Though I doubt it’ll be as cool and as catchy hers. She’s cool. Go Angloman!

Alexpham said on...

Good night Kinaknights! Take care <3.

sabafa? where has he been? i caught about two secs of that slug video. was it that bad?

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@Misa: i saw that… wow, was he serious?! come to think of it, yeah, he hasn’t been in here since.

i don’t really want to impress her. i just want to watch her live…and say hi, it’s me newbie…and be myself.

December 4, 2008

@Alexpham: I’ll be in socal for three weeks surrounding christmas and new year’s, so hopefully I’ll get a chance to meet some west coast people :)

Also, I’m fine, thank you, and also, 700! Going to bed as soon as I catch up on comments, since I know if I don’t do it now I’ll wake up to 500 more. I’ll be offline most of tomorrow, in transit saturday and offline most of sunday, too, so I have a feeling I’ll have my work cut out for me next week. /)_(\

such a sad song…

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@confused newbie: so i’ve heard, but have yet to find.

@Misa: for a minute there, i thought you were talking about kids, until i clicked the link. kids can be like that too… sounds just like my godson! hahaha….

Misa said on...

December 4, 2008

@confused newbie: The video itself wasn’t bad, but the “related videos” on the right were rather….NSFW, shall we say, as was the title of the video. I was mostly joking, but I didn’t see his apology in time (it was the last comment in the previous post, and I’d moved onto this one), so he took it as a brush-off and has disappeared, at least for now. He’s been around for quite a bit, yes, but isn’t an original kinerd/kinanite/whatever you want to call them. :P

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@Misa:

I caught that act. He did leave in a huff (hehehe). He’s a sensitive guy, I guess. I think he was pulling all nighters, posting around the clock, and wigging out. But you didn’t really scold him, just a little nudge, that’s all. No reason for him to be miffed. I think I remember he did something like this with Kina, too. Not sure. What can ya do??

confused newbie said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7:

why does he have problems sleeping?

well hopefully a Kina fan is not lost forever…

confused newbie said on...

December 4, 2008

oh yeah…the related videos on the right were pretty umm…

i didn’t even noticed them because like i said, i clicked the link, saw ’slug sex’ and thought..what the hell…and flipped back here

HAH!!!!! Awesome!!! So cool. STINKY!!

From Blues Clues:

Well, the sun’s a hot star,
And Mercury’s hot too,
Venus is the brightest planet,
Earth’s home to me and you
Mars is the red one,
And Jupiter’s most wide
Saturn’s got those icy rings,
And Uranus spins on its side.
Neptune’s really windy,
And Pluto’s really small.

I just got Kina’s twitter… and had to see for myself. 700 plus.. impressive, most impressive. If this keeps up we could be in the range of 1000 by next Monday.

@Alderin:

this is funny but true…

when i first saw you in her SF video clips, i thought you were her bodyguard…

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

Hey @Glenn:
@Code2mind:

Yup, it was Misa that hit number 700!!! She’s been so awesome at keepin’ it all together here.

I don’t even think we paid too much attention, just having good conversations and presto!!

Code2mind said on...

December 4, 2008

yeah.. its only thursday.. if the rate keeps up, more than likely it will be around 1400 by monday.

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7: haha… you actually know where that’s from? oh wait, you have two boys of your own.

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@hey guys

Check the other tweets!! More good news from Kina!!

If Glenn and Code2Mine and Screwy didn’t pay stop in, we wouldn’t have seen them.

Man, I gotta have another tab open for Twitter.

thuff7 said on...

December 4, 2008

@g3mini:

Yeah, but I loved that song. I used to watch it for me, too!!!! We all sang along and the boys really learned their planets. I thought they would be crushed when Pluto was demoted. But they were cool and ready to run with the dwarf planet idea!!!

g3mini said on...

December 4, 2008

@thuff7: i think everyone in my family learned that song – the right way & the wrong way! hahaha…

Code2mind said on...

December 4, 2008

Glenn said on...

December 4, 2008

@Code2mind: David Choi will smile once he gets a certain number of subscribers… to which he is very close :-)

Code2mind said on...

December 4, 2008

oic.. lol.. i’ll be rooting for it.. that and charles trippys..

Glenn said on...

December 4, 2008

I guess close is relative though… last I checked he has 76,712 and he is aiming for 77,777

Code2mind said on...

December 4, 2008

im sure it’ll happen. if you have enough hard core david choi fans, they can make a few new accounts to break that aim.

Alderin said on...

December 4, 2008

@confused newbie: Haha! Sign me up!!!

@gigi44: Welcome! And don’t worry too much about what time you post, just keep posting.

It is the end of another long day. The sun set hours ago, and way too early for my liking. My brain is run down from tedious tasks in the morning and my body is drained from physical labor this evening. Everyone else in the house is asleep, except maybe the cats, and though a corner of my mind says we can write some more code for the chatbox, I think I need to sleep instead.

I hope everyone has a restful and relaxing night!

*HUGS*

YAY KINA!!! don’t loose that CD!!! LOL
im so excited to hear the album!! yay good job!

p.s. @TimR: 800?! lets shoot for 1000!! kination FTW’s!!

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@kina

OK. I have right here on my desk, an entire unopened, unexpired pack of Tim Tams. I am willing to consider trading the entire pack for that little plastic disk in your hands. Come on, whatya say, it’s just a little piece of plastic. Their are billions of those little pieces of plastic.

OK, I will give you a little time to think. But, meanwhile, just think of that rich chocolaty flavor. yummmmmmm. I bet you’re a little hungry after all that work!!!!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

That sounds tempting even to me and I’ve never seen a Tim Tam.

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

wow that looks amazing: Chocolate Butternut Tartlets

I think I’d basically trade any plastic disc for something that makes that.

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije:

Hehehe.

But ur gonna have to fly to SoCal, find her house and negotiate for that particular little plastic disk. Let’s just say it’s a sentimental favorite.

Now if you are willing to deliver it, I am thinking your cut should come out of her end of the deal . . . but I am open to negotiation on a beverage of your choice to go along with whatever she is willing to cut you in on. I might even go higher than tall.

Now, did I mention just how rich and chocolaty those Tim Tams are? mmmmmmmmm.

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@Alderin:

Good morning, Alderin. Well, judging by the blogs and Misa’s reaction, you’re something of a celebrity here in Kination!! So we are honored to have you here. We look forward to chatting and hearing some of your experiences on all things Kina.

Had a chance to click the link to your blog. I hope your family is doing well and everything is ok. My mom is facing the same thing, so best thoughts go out to you and yours. Also, good luck on your mission! Good thoughts come your way. Any fan of Kina is family here!!!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@thuff7: I was actually only trying to support your attempts to sway her (is that the correct word?), seeing as how it will be hard for me to A) get the disc (being in europe) and B) get the tim tams (being in europe) :P

If she however, feels more comfortable handing the plastic disc to me than to you (europe being a safe place for such a disc), I am very willing to talk about any type of bribery, in order for you to obtain it from me :))

(you will ofcourse get some fake copy whereon I play some faulty covers with terrible singing)

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

the uranus song could be on there *rolls eyes*

Dr G said on...

December 5, 2008

Woah! Leave for a bit (a day and a half) and look at what has happened. Almost 800!

I look forward to seeing Kina tonight, and hopefully having a sneak preview of “The Disc”. Can’t wait.

Screwy said on...

December 5, 2008

Thanks everyone.

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije:

Okay, I see you’re a skilled negotiator.

“Look, the dyke is leaking!!!!”

/logs in to travelocity and buys round-trip ticket to LAX

Made ya look!!!! Hehehehe

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@Dr G:

Oh, you lucky dad!!!

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@Dr G:

get you a pack of tim tams if you do a quick switcheroo and bootleg some copies . . .

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@Screwy:

Yeah, screwy. Hope your b’day is awesome!!

Code2mind said on...

December 5, 2008

cant wait for the cd to be released.. :) heres one more for the 800 mark.

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@thuff7: I checked the pond, but no leaks :P

@AllWhoWantTheCD:
It could be me (back me up here guys), but I do believe I heard a rumor somewhere that if we broke 1000, we’d all get a free copy of that oh-so-wanted plastic disc :)))

Anybody else hear about this?

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije:

See, you got me there. You knew I don’t like to play by the rules and couldn’t keep myself from clicking on donotclickme.com :P

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

gheheh, I’m good huh ;) you didn’t notice the description it gives you when you hover over the link did you? not even patient enough for that.. tsk tsk

PS

in between messing up songs on the guitar I build websites too, enables you to do cute things like that

Misa said on...

December 5, 2008

All this talk of bribery is reminding me of how I strongly considered offering my newly purchased nutella banana crepe from the Creperie down the street from The Living Room to Rosie and Sufjan in exchange for a picture. I literally walked straight past them outside the club as I was going from the creperie to the subway station (it was my consolation for being chicken). If I were braver, I would have done it. I guess in all these situations I should just ask myself, “What would Kina do if someone offered her a nutella banana crepe?”

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije:

No that is the description “donotclickme.com” when you mouse over. That’s the part that got me.

“Ain’t no web page tellin’ me what or what not to click.”

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

Good Morning all, and Happy Birthday to Screwy!

I thought I would check in to catch up on the count up.

On today’s agenda:
– have a banana smoothie for breakfast (done)
– run 3-4 miles
– assist in reaching at least 900 comments today
– putting up Christmas decorations! Yay!
– other things I am probably not remembering but will be reminded about as the day progresses :-)

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: nice illustration!

@maryannee: I can hear little kina singing now :-)

@Misa: I wish they had a nutella place near my house :-(

@avweije: although we sometimes miss the opportunity it’s cool that it happened isn’t it?

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn:
thanks…
good morning to you.
can i put the star on top?? haha… yay for christmas deco!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: I will never forget those moments and I will never stop bragging about Anna Kournikova :P

Anonymous said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: Yay! I’m putting Christmas decorations up too! hehehe that was a cute clip wasn’t it?(kina singing i mean)

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

ugh I need to stop doing that. That’s me ^^

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: I had a feeling it was you, lol ;-)

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

800!

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

muahahaha!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

Nice picture gemini :) can you make one where I’m snatching the CD from Kina?

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: it’s all you :-)

At the end of this we should list the members who breached each hundreth mark on the comments. Maybe we should give you a prize? 100 commenter, 200 commenter.. etc. … hopefully that won’t belittle the spirit of comments when those milestones come around.

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije: haha… take a picture of yourself pretending to snatch it… and yup, i can do that!!!! lol

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: so far…

100 – Alexpham
200 – confused newbie
300 – maryannee
400 – coffee
500 – maryannee
600 – Daniel_Baird
700 – Misa
800 – maryannee

Wow… maryannee!! if we follow the pattern, it looks like maryannee will be the 1000th commenter!!

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: sure, you can put the star on the top. I have a little tree (3ft) and a big tree (9ft). I am thinking that I might only put up the little one this year.

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: nice summary… maryannee seems to be taking the cake!

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: and @g3mini: Eeks I should give others a chance :s. I’ll set it up for you two!! or whoever wants it hehe I got your backs! *salutes*.

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: that works then because 9ft. is just too high to reach! lol…

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

shame on you glenn! you need a real xmas tree! my mom would have a fit (she is brittish)

@g3mini: will see if I can make a nice pic.. hmm

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: lol… no worries! all the more reason for others to get on here… to try to beat you to it. lol… give ‘em a run for it!!! (that includes me)!!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

you can jump can’t you gem?

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije: jump?? *confused*

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: haha that’s true.
@avweije: or we could make a human pyramid…?

poetknowit said on...

December 5, 2008

so many posts…so little time.

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: as long as I don’t have to hold the pyramid up, I’m fine with it ;)

@g3mini: jump to 9ft or so?

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije: now now… as much as I like a real tree, I prefer them in their natural environment. Besides, I can barely keep regular house plants alive… keeping a live tree and avoidance of my house burning down at the same time is probably not in the cards for me.

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: oh you just gave me an evil thought.. this xmas I’m gonna bring up the discussion of whether we as a human race should leave xmas trees in their natural element, preserving nature, climate change, etc. that will ruffle her feathers :P

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

Dr. Phil time! I’m out for a bit :)

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije: ahaha…!!!

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: no worries g3, if I do put up the 9 footer, I am sure you are light enough to toss up until you get the star just right. :-)

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: don’t know about being tossed up in the air… i think i’d be scared!!! :S yikes!

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: LOL

(ok, gone now)

Misa said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: Yeah, they flip out and scamper everywhere. It’s fun. :)

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@g3mini: well, coming from the engineering background, I could rig up a series of pulleys and winches attached to a harness and lift you into position.

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: well, if you’re only putting up the small one, we’re fine! lol

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

Done, the small tree is up… now for some adjustments on the ornaments then it will be time to move to the decorations outside.

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee:

Yay!!!! I knew you’d come through with a big number!!!!

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn:

If you do toss g3mini up to put up the star, we want a YouTube post!!!

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Alexpham: lol! You’ve heard of it!! I was afraid no one was going to know what that was. So yea, I kind of started watching tv at a late age since we weren’t allowed to watch when we were younger :/…. But yes, it was a good show :). I don’t know when it came out *shrug*.

And I didn’t know you player guitar, are you good, just started? I am still learning, but it’s going nice lately. I actually have 2 covers on my youtube page already, just click my name to go there.

They are by no means good, but you can see me in action.

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@evann: Well, reading and writing can be fun…? What’re you reading?? About the secret santa thingy, does it have to be something generic? Tim Tams?? lol

@avweije: yay for decorating! I’ve been playing guitar for like 7 years on and off and I’m not as good as I’d want to be hehe. Very nice covers!! You learn quick! Aww no singing??

@gigi44: Haha yes naruto and bleach are pretty good. Does anyone read the manga? hahaha yes pac-man.

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@gigi44: hahaha! idk why delahoya but always been a fav. with my old man and the 1 hr ep is awesome if you watch it you’ll catch up just watch it is better than the last two episodes.

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@avweije: how would one watch the plasma, I guess riding and watching is not advisable, lol

Does anyone have any spare railroad track?

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: no the recent manga like hitman reborn and etc. im all old skool like akira toriyama and gundam. And American comics like mainly marvel.

avweije said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: you’d have to do those trick flips where you jump alongside your horse and flip back over it, everytime you get on the right side you can watch a bit of tv, on the left twiddle with your ipod, and so forth :P

@maryannee: 7 years, wow, I’d like to hear something sometime :) and thank you for the compliment, I am spending a lot of time with it at the moment and I can see I’m improving, so that makes it fun to keep at it. As for the singing, you are not the first to ask, but at the moment if I start to sing I lose track of what I am playing. When I get it I will post something, however good/bad it sounds ;)

space.. the final frontier

bbl, star trek tng :))

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: Tim Tams for a Secret Santa… now that is an idea. Are you decorating the inside or the outside?

@gigi44: The fight is suppose to be good tomorrow, although I will probably miss it. So much is happening tomorrow. There is a business meeting, training, a performance and a party happening that day… it will be a long day

@Alexpham: You sound like a big anime, manga and comic fan :-)

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: it’ll pass the time of boredom =) wat about you?

Mama G said on...

December 5, 2008

Well, you all sound like you have some fun things planned for the weekend, but I’ve got the event that will trump you! I think I might get a sneak peek (well, since it’s auditory… I guess that would be a sneak “squeak”!) of Kina’s CD…. heh heh! Oh the perks of being Kina’s mom! :D

P.S. You may submit bribes by PayPal…. haha…

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@Alexpham: I used to be but havn’t really caught up with the times. I like to watch most any anime, not too much into manga, but general comics… Marvel mostly X-Men and what not. Gosh, I have comics stashed in my garage that I haven’t looked at in ages.

gigi44 said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: hahah yea dey addicting!! naw i habnt read d manga! but my friend does read dem n she told me some of wat is goin to happen!! kinda spoiled some for me but dat ok…i told her to tell me!!! too bad d stuff she told me wont happen for anotha 10-20 episodes or so..not really sure!! hahaha n yaaay for pac-man!!!

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@Mama G: hello how are you this evening.

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@Mama G: Awww, no fair :-P You have to keep it secret so it is a surprise for us ;-) … unless you crave some Tim Tams .. heheheh

gigi44 said on...

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Alexpham: Oh cool I hear Akira the animation was good. Wow comics huh? Which comics??

@avweije: No problemo! Yea I still have problems with playing and singing at the same time hehe :S.

@Glenn: Yes Tim Tams!!! I’m in Canada so that would be an awesome gift!! I will be decorating both! Gotta put up some lights and lots of greens in the house. How was decorating your house today?

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: i have some rare ones like venoms first appearence like 300-310 they must cost alot and in very good condition read them wen i was 7 and never again heehee..

@gigi44: well thats the best thing to do is wait though some episodes are boring and to many fillers hate them. Well all my filipino friends go for pac-man so i went the opposite direction =)

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Mama G: Lucky!! That tops all of our plans for the weekend combined!!!

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: Marvel the xforce-team led by wolverine and young xmen-team led by cyclops are good and spidey my great hero he got me into science lol true though…

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

@Mama G: you want to send some copies to West Hills CA lol

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@gigi44: yayaya! The manga is really good ;).

@Alexpham: Nice, love the Marvel’s huh? Haha Spiderman IS a cool nerd. ;)

gigi44 said on...

December 5, 2008

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@gigi44: Well, there is a friend of mine who has a DVR and will record it. Unfortunately, I will run into enough people that the results will probably be leaked out to me before the night is over.

@maryannee: I am going to try to pick some up tomorrow (Tim Tams) along with some additional Christmas supplies. So far the tree is up and somewhat decorated. The wreath is on the door but not all the light are out just yet, can’t find my extension cords…. and the sun just set over here so outside will have to wait until Sunday. Do you have any theme going on this year?

@Alexpham: I don’t think I have any rare ones in my stash, I would have to revisit them to remember. That’s great that you have Venom’s first appearance.

Mama G said on...

December 5, 2008

haha Glenn… Tim Tams are fine bribery material as well…. but I agree with you and think it’s much more fun to be surprised!

Hey AlexPham! I’ve been wanting to tell you… before you take the driving test, make sure you know where your hazard blinkers are… one of my kids almost got nailed for that!

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: Grrr I envy you! Wow there’s a lot of Tim Tam talk on this blog. They must be reeeally good. Haha I think everyone has problems finding extension chords. I’ve never had a theme before. It’s always just green in the house and white lights outside. What kind of themes are there? Do you have one??

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@Mama G: Speaking of hazards, one time Paco turned on the hazard lights of my rental car. It is scary coming to your car and seeing the hazards on, lol

@maryannee: Theme wise, I’ve only had colors, silver and blue but they are designed for the big tree. I have only set up the small one, so it is a mosh pit of ornaments and decorations. My Mom has had themes of snowmen, reindeer, even nutcrackers…. she can get really creative at times. The house is literally transformed, it is kinda cool.

Dr G said on...

December 5, 2008

Is everyone waiting to get closer to 900? Awfully quiet out there. I figure the countdown to listening to the new CD is less than 3 hours, barring complications, such as a daughter who might say that we too should be surprised. Could happen. Hope not.

@maryannee: wow… someone has their timing down to a tee ;-)

sometimes you can’t help being precise :-)

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to…. I. am. lame.

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: Anyway, that’s crazy. Did you make any of the ornaments? If you did (and anyone can answer this one): What is the ornament you are most proud of?

I’m sorry again. I wont go near 1000 :(.

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@maryannee: All the ornaments that I ever made were given to the tree at my Mom’s house, but they were mostly when I was a boy. The ones here are gifts or unique trinkets that I have acquired through the years since college. The ornament I was probably the most proud of back then was a truncated icosahedron, or a soccer ball made out of pentagons and hexagons… can you say geeky :-) Of course it was decorated and colorful too.

Don’t worry about the 900 mark, we would not even have come close without you ;-)

wwar1ace said on...

December 5, 2008

HEY!!! While you’re all in here gabbin’ trying to reach 1000…. might as well go check out our Radio Requests page here:

http://www.kinagrannis.com/blog/street-team-radio-requests/

Misa also posted a sticky linking to it in the Forums. Test it out, make suggestions, and try to get in the habit of visiting it whenever you’re here at the site.

That is all. Carry on.

@maryannee:
that was awesome.

Mama G said on...

December 5, 2008

Whoa, wwar1ace…. I thought you were shot down over enemy lines! Glad to see you’re alive and well :)
Thanks for the effort you put into this. This weekend I want to add to your list!

maryannee said on...

December 5, 2008

@Glenn: Whoa! That’s actually pretty cool. I’ve never seen that before, looks complicated to make :s.

@wwar1ace: Nice. This is probably a dumb question but can we request even if we aren’t in the same country as the radio station?

@nimur: Shhhh! That’s embarrassing *shameful*.

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

good job all.
hope ur are all well

@Screwy: Happy Birthday

@thuff & Misa: Thanks for the positive thoughts!

@maryannee: ROFL!!! Stolen!!!

@Momma G: Wow, invoking envy and jealousy, teasing mercilessly, and yet the whole time I’m just thankful that you brought your daughters into the world and brought them up to be the awesome trio they are. :-D

I see we are well on our way to 1000!!! Fun!

Glenn said on...

December 5, 2008

@wwar1ace: I have been meaning to add some SF Bay radio stations, starting with the college stations and then the more mainstream ones that allow requests. I’ll try to do so ASAP. We’ll have to share a rootbeer sometime when things start rolling.

@Dr G: Are there any Berkeley stations you know of that are open to requests? I only know of KBFB or something like that.

@maryannee: Actually it is not that hard. The ones I made were from paper and like most math related items there is a trick to it. The hardest part is actually making the pentagon. Once that is done, it is a matter of making a template and repeating. Believe me, any elementary kid can do it from that point. I’ll put some instructions up in the forum when I have a chance. What was your favorite decoration?

@thuff7: Momentum seems to pick and and go away from time to time… going all out commenting is very tiring… let alone keeping up with the count.

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

hi all.. back from an early friday celebration & my goodness…
all the reading i have to catch up with.

MARYANNEE – i don’t know how you do it!!! 900th too! awesome awesome.

THUFF7 – no worries… all in good fun!

ALEXPHAM – nothing planned for the weekend. probably just fix up the guest room because family will be coming in a few weeks…

OH THE JOY OF THE HOLIDAYS!

g3mini said on...

December 5, 2008

MAMA G & DR G – lucky you!! i’m a little bit jealous. but if you’re gonna hear it before all of us… listen to it for all of us who can’t YET!

thuff7 said on...

December 5, 2008

Ray LaMontagne said on...

December 5, 2008

maryanne, no worries. i was number 600 on the last groundbreaking blog, and just wanted to continue the tradition. I’m just going to have to work extra hard for 1000 now!

Alexpham said on...

Alexpham said on...

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

well question of the late night i guess wat is your most favorite movie?

mine must be The 007 movies i just love the old ones with the original bond like theoriginal casino royale. =) “Shakin’ not stirred”lol

Alexpham said on...

December 5, 2008

Oh, by the way wat is the craziest food you have eaten? Did it gross you out?

mine was in thailand well i wont ge into detail but it was actually good it was on the country side if anyone watches Bizzarre Foods with Andrew Zimmerin that is what i ate and duran i think its ok but smells ewww! =) well i believe that living life to the fullest you must try weird and exciting things like that so yea…

Alderin said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alexpham: Well, just to keep you from talking to yourself all the way to 1000… since that’s cheating! lol

Crazy Food: I’ve had frog legs and alligator tail, and little baby (cooked) octopus. Not entirely adventurous, but not quite mainstream. I found I really like amaranth, but it isn’t easy to find a store that has it.

Most favorite movie… but there are so many! If I HAD to choose, it would probably be “The Dark Crystal”, followed closely by “Tron”, then it’s a toss up between “Goonies” and “The Breakfast Club”. I probably lose a lot of “geek cred” for not listing Starwars or StarTrek or Indiana Jones or ET, and as much as I love the TV series Firefly, Serenity didn’t make it either.

Alderin said on...

December 6, 2008

That’s interesting, I type something in at 11pm, and it shows up after midnight. I thought this bla(h)g ran on Pacific time? *SHRUG*

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alderin: frog legs are the best!

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alderin: that is not cheating lol

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alderin: amaranth wats that?

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

the time here is an hour early in pacific time.

g3mini said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alexpham:
favorite movie would have to be “drop dead fred”. i could watch that over and over and over and over… well, you get the picture.
weirdest food… hmm, would have to be fruit bat. it’s way too rich!!! tried it & don’t really care for it.

so i think the race is on… who’s gonna take the 1000th place???

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

wow 59 morei am so excited lol

Alderin said on...

December 6, 2008

I wonder why, since Mission Viejo is Pacific time, isn’t it? Maybe I’m just too tired to think about these things more tonight.

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@g3mini: well i ate it too although it scared me but it was so good i just thought it would gross people out if i talked about itand never heard the movie wats the plot? and i am guessing it would be neb cause i shall post until 12:30 so have an hour left.heeheehee and your nephew is so adorable! =)

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

Alderin said on...

December 6, 2008

@g3mini: Actually, in my copy of WordPress, there isn’t a DST setting, and I haven’t bothered to upgrade to the very latest version just yet, but I think it is a low priority for them (WordPress developers).

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

Well……..drum beat……………………Kina was a spoiler! She is making us wait until the final production is done. I do however know all the songs that are on it. ”

I’m off to bed. Probably will miss the celebration of 1000. Good luck to the person that captures the millennium mark.

g3mini said on...

@Dr G: How sweet of her!!! (for us, anyway :-D )

Well, 1000 won’t be me, because I’m headed to sleep, too. I’m sure tomorrow will be the typical Saturday for this house: more projects completed than most other people I’ve met accomplish in a month. So I better get what rest I can.

‘night all! (“Nytol” lol)

drop dead fred is an awesome movie!!! i used to love watching that!! dat reminds me..i need to add dat to my dvd collection!!!

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

@g3mini: I may actually know it, starting to ring a bell, but don’t think I saw the whole thing or so, gonna check the vid.

Bottom was a comedy show in england, done by Rik Mayal and someone else, quite crude humor, didnt last too long, but it was funny (they were an offspring from the young ones, if that rings a bell).

g3mini said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije: nope, doesn’t ring a bell. but yes it does start Rik Mayal.

@gigi44: yup, it’s an awesome dvd to add to your collection.

Awesome, AP. Hope everyone had a great time last night. It was a tough night for me, and I didn’t want to drag anyone down with me, so skipped the Kination blog. Congratulations. I’ve said it before, but can’t say it enough. You guys are super-dee-duper.

Well, be cool all.

avweije said on...

@thuff7: what are who feeding me? I’m confused (not newbie) :P

I’ve asked Kina for an Anouk cover, if again she ever gets time, she is a dutch artist and one of my favorite since many years, would like to ask your opionions (since she is not known in us), here are 2 youtube vids:
Sacrifice (I think this would be a nice one for Kina)
R U Kiddin Me I love this one, nice rock, gets you going (might not be for Kina)

gonna check your xmas song now..

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: yeah we fell the magic
who has already cut a Christmas tree?

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

opinion onions, that’s a dutch thing too, it’s like asking someone’s opinion, but one with many layers that will water one’s eyes

*cough*

good save huh..

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alexpham: I do ;)

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: thats the one! wow you know the lyrics, I think that might be the one song I can sing while playing.

I think she basically hits 1 chord, then sings a line, hits a 2nd chord, sings a 2nd line, etc.

You might see a new youtube video of me shortly..

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

So aside from not getting a sneak preview, tell us how Kina is feeling about her recording sessions? How are her spirits? Is she able to unwind a bit now (other than some marathon training, etc).

thanks for all your drop ins!!!

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

I guess what I’m thinking is that there must be a point where she gets a little nervous about how it will go over. So many of her hopes are riding on it. Of course, we’ll all love it b/c her songs are very dear to us. So I hope she knows she couldn’t possibly disappoint us!! And the street teamers will do all we can to lobby for her. So tell her not to worry so much, if that is the case!! =D

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@maryannee:

Hey, Maryanne!! Nobody here has any problem with you breaking all the those century marks. So don’t be worrying on us. You’re one of the Kination heroines here, and you deserve a ton of credit for keeping everything real around here. So celebrate—-we’ll be the first to toast to you!!! I hope you get a whole lot more!! If I get a chance, I’m serving it up to you, cuz ur good ppl!! <3

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije:

hehehe it’s a fav ’round here. we got two cats so that’s the litter box cleaning song!!!

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije:

yup. sounds right. Did you see the one with Chrissy Hines (Pretenders) doing smelly cat?? hehehe

verse 2

smelly cat, smelly cat,
it’s not your fault!

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

Hey. Wait!!

How did that happen? I got number 1040. Inauspicious number. (for those of you not US citizens, that is the number of the Federal Tax Form). Yikes!

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: I would say her mood was relieved, excited, positive, and very happy. I want a sneak preview! Isn’t that a father’s prerogative?

evann said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7:

a bagel with what?!

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: cool, I love cats, don’t have any at the moment, but sometime soon again I hope.

“from the top?”
“okay, there is no top in smelly cat”
“hmm, yeah”
“just follow my lead”
song follows, special guest overdoes it
“okay that’s too much!”

schmear – NYC deli-speak (Yiddish??) for cream cheese!!
Try ordering that in Virginia!! Hehehe

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

Sure it is, but it’s also daughter’s prerogative to want daddy to see her at her finest. She’s gotta finish the last little touches, then it’s ready for the ultimate test. I’m sure she knows how proud you’ll be, but no preview til she’s dressed for the ball!!

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

“do you have a strap?”
“no”
“oh, pff.. I do”

I have seen some of the friends episodes :P name a scene and I can tell you most of the dialogue

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

that was actually gonna be my 1st answer to the question “what would you do if you would meet Kina”

I would respond like Chandler did:

Kina: “hi!”
Me: “flanningun”

“Oh come on, she’s just a person, what’s the worst that could happen”
“I could die”

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G: can you put pressure on her by stopping her weekly allowance?

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije:

My son’s middle name is Chandler!!! Not a coincidence!! hehehe

Just saw one of the Christmas ones:

Rachel: Awwww, wiper blades. I don’t even have a car.
Joey: That’s why we got you this bottle of New Car Smell. =D

Phoebe: Awww, toiltet seat covers.
Joey: uh-huh!
Phoebe: Hey, is that what you were doing while I was waiting at the gas station?

Ross: Oh, a can of cola soda.
Chandler: And . . . lemon-lime!!
Ross: Aww, this makes me wish I had gotten you two sweaters!! :(

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

*Ross and Monica exchange the ribbed condoms (for her pleasure) with one of the cans*

avweije said on...

December 6, 2008

okay okay, since we are on the subject, what’s your favorite friends scene?

mine has got to be where they all throw the water in joey’s face, lol

“and you left the toilet seat up, you bastard!” *splash*

It is Drake’s evil twin, Hans Ramore!

TimR said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G: Please complete the following audit:

Question #1. Under penalty of law and forfeiture of assets, list all tracks on Kina’s newly recorded CD.

End of audit.

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije:

Oh, man. So, so many.

Julia Roberts leaves Chandler “flossing” in the mens room (keepin’ it G here!!) (Joey taking a peak!)

Ross trying to flirt with the pizza delivery girl–ends up talking about sewage.

Ross getting his dedication song to Rachel yanked off the air (We were on a break!)

Ross’ wedding “I Ross, take thee Rachel . . . ”

Tops: Any scene with Janice.

also: Rachel in cheerleading outfit trying to snag Tate Donovan (forget character name)

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@TimR:

Awwww!! I can’t take it. I’m torn. 1/2 wants the surprise, 1/2 wants to know now. It’s like peaking in your parents closet looking for your Christmas present–ur excited to see it, but Christmas isn’t the same w/o the surprise.

Darn it, TimR. What do I do?????

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

I missed 1000! Dang!!!

congrats to my bud AP!!!

can’t stay…

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

OH and..

congrats to kina on the fully produced cd! way to go!

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

what does it mean? she’s no flash in the pan i saw this sentence at ocregister.com about kina’s adventure and iv tried to translate but without success anybody can explain to me does it mean?

TimR said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: Well, you have no say, just like I do. So you wait. And even if she does let the track listing slip out, there’s always a chance of songs we haven’t heard, and won’t hear until the release.

@caidalica: Basically “flash in the pan” refers to someone who has success in the beginning without much success after that. So the fact that they’re saying she’s not one is good!

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@TimR: ok thank you for this explanation and for now nobody know who she is but i think it’s will change very soon!!!

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@TimR: OK thank you for this explanation and for now in France nobody know who she is but i think it’s will change very soon!!!

Good morning everyone, I see we are steadily moving up on the comments. I am mostly out today so I am sure there will be lots to catchup on in the late evening.

@g3mini: Way to keep score G3 :-) and congrats to AP on securing the 1000th comment… but it isn’t over just yet ;-)

@caidalica: One of these days you will need to try Banana Flambeau.

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@Glenn: what is that banana flambeau?

Glenn said on...

December 6, 2008

@caidalica: It is also known as flambé. It is a cooking technique. In the linked example one would use bananas instead. It is a very good dessert.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrPTSpYU0Tk

It just popped into mind regarding your earlier comment :-)

Incidentally, what are everyone’s favorite dessert?

@caidalica:

Oh, yeah!! “The Cleaner” was awesome. Not many liked it but Benjamin Bratt was incredible. Very convincing. Street smart.

I am also into “House”, “Life” (Damian Lewis), and “Law & Order CI” eps with Vincent D’Onofrio. Like “The Closer”, too.
Also liked “Studio 60″ with Matthew Perry.

Alexpham said on...

so hope everyone is having a good weekend!!

wwar1ace has the radio blog thingy going. It’s the start for the Kina CD release to get ready to bombard radio stations with requests for Kina songs in an organized, team effort. These guys are the best and know what they’re doing. I can’t wait to help out in my own humble way!

@Alexpham:

you guys talking those little pellet thingys??

Mama G said on...

December 6, 2008

…. in fact, that would be a good KG mission: go into Apple stores and get a minimum of 5 computers onto different Kina songs from youtube. I say 5 and not 10 or 20 or all because I don’t want patrons/employees getting annoyed and associating any negative feelings with Kina and her music…. although I’d like to think that they’d ultimately be happy to be exposed to it :) So the next time you pass an Apple store, go for it!

And while we’re talking about Apple, I really think they need to use one of her songs in a commercial because a) she has a lot of music that imho would be perfect and b) she eat/sleeps/breathes Apple… metaphorically speaking, of course.

@confused newbie: and@thuff7: hehe thanks!

@thuff7: Aww, we missed you too! It definitelydid not feel the same without you. Hope you’re feeling better b^_^d.

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@confused newbie:

Yeah, AP caught the big 1000. I’m so psyched for him.

@Alexpham:

Those little things worked for me. Nathan has something like asthma. He’s on albuterol and singular. One of my upcoming projects will be looking at leukotrienes (may cause asthma) to help find out how they can be controlled better.

Hope you feel better.

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

i was busy last night and was away from the computer so i didn’t get a chance to watch/listen to any kina vids on youtube. let me tell you…it is hard!!!

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

for a senior prank should i make a 4 piece each weighing 30 pounds 20 ft tall statue of kina in the middle of the school lol and play her music all morning through the speakers? with 3 chickens numbered 1,2,and4 they’ll be searching for number 3 lol. =D

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@maryannee:

Oh wow, how kind, ear-to-ear grin on me now!! =D

Mama G said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: I don’t know if you were pulling my leg or not, but that actually sounds like an interesting idea…. although people are so paranoid these days, I’d worry that they’d be wary of poisoned or razor-bladed cookies and toss them in the nearest trash bin… and of course, that starts getting costly. Maybe individually wrapped tim tams :)

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@Mama G: is it a mission for all kination’s members?i’m in hahaha

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7:

felt bad…AP was there with me when i got 1 and i missed his 1000.

SORRY AP!!

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: ok as a kid with asthma ask the doctor nxt time if h has those medicated breathing machines that helped me when i was young and sick my little cousin at age 5 uses it she hasn’t had an attack in a long while thank goodness. =)

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@Mama G: yay! *highfive*. I’m going to be passing by the Apple store more often next year so go kina! I agree about the Apple commercial too! Kina’s music is so chill it matches perfectly.

December 6, 2008

@Mama G: I’ve been thinking about this since I heard about the radio stuff you guys are gonna do, would you like me to send some emails to dutch radio stations? Or are you not at all focused on that at the moment..

maryannee said on...

@Alexpham: A package! No one knows what’s inside except for the G’s

hi everyone!!!

@Alexpham: are u talkin bout nebulizer treatments? a mask n der like water like stuff on d bottom of d mask?

Mama G said on...

December 6, 2008

@ caidalica: I encourage all KG steet teamers as well as non-street teamers to infiltrate their nearest Apple store! How about if all 799,316 of Kina’s subscribers did this? Although, there are probably a good number of spots on the globe with no Apple stores nearby….

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@gigi44: yeah as kid now that im older just the inhaler.

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Mama G:

No, not pulling your leg. It was at work (GMU) and I passed them out to fellow faculty and researchers. I have a master key, so I can slip them in their office when no one is looking. One group caught me in the act, so I told them they wouldn’t be opening the pack until they took an oath to visit the site!!

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@Mama G: hahaha! i shall do it later today.

caidalica said on...

Also, add your local stations to this list:

http://www.kinagrannis.com/blog/street-team-radio-requests/stations/

Note that they want a concerted effort to maximize impact.

Mama G said on...

December 6, 2008

@ avweije: that’s a great idea. Let me run it by Kina. I know she’s gearing up to promote the cd in a very big way. She may want to coordinate the efforts. I’ll keep you posted.

@ Alexpham: Have you already registered? Have you also submitted your transcripts and 3 letters of recommendation? What kind of community service experience do you have? And I hope you’ve kept your nose clean because she is doing background checks! (still haven’t figured out a way to electronically drug test though…. let’s not go there, folks)

maryannee said on...

@Mama G: yeah sure i have a apple store close to my flat but i don’t know if their computer are connected but if it’s possible i will shoot with my DVcam that performance and post it on youtube.

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije:

hey! i didnt’ find out the name of that band…it’s 4something…i thought 4faces but was wrong. i will know by next week!!!

Mama G said on...

December 6, 2008

Maryannee gets it, but for those who may not have understood my post about the street team… all is in jest. All you need to do is register at streetteam@kiinagrannis.com so Kina can send you a ST packet (still being assembled and prepared for mailing)! :)

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@confused newbie:

Me too. He’s quite a character. hehehehe ;-D
But if I write one for him, who’s gonna vouch for me?

Well, when I was a young kid, I stole a pack of gum. But it was killing me, so I un-stole it back on the shelf. I hope that doesn’t show up on my background check!

Oh, and I cut physics once. Oh man, I’m doomed . . . *sigh*

asdf said on...

December 6, 2008

@Mama G: into Apple stores and get a minimum of 5 computers onto different Kina songs from youtube.
I would pick a playlist instead of a song :)

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@asdf: Yea i was wondering lol how did she gain so many subscribers!?! The visit to the Apple store must have done it! haha.

just curious, does the cd have to hit a certain sales figure that Interscope sets?

You don’t mess with the Yohan….

ok had to do that…sorry!

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

If you had the time to hang out here with us all the time, I guarantee that, with your wit and wisdom, you would collect enough of a crowd to pass the 10,000 blog marks consistently!!

Mama G said on...

Everyone listen to asdf! I knew if I threw a plan out there, you guys would refine it :)

Okay, I’m putting the computer to sleep…..walking away… I’m serious…… maybe….

@thuff7:

we’ve all done something that we’re not too proud of when we were younger! i’m guilty of that.

should we start a list and confess??? hahaha….we might reach 2000 by tonight if we did.

caidalica said on...

@confused newbie: sure i was arrested by the police for some firebug acts when i was young that’s the worst thing that it could happen to a kid

thuff7 said on...

Dude, I’m near DC. We know how to give a non-answer answer ’round these parts. Our good politicos know it’s all in the way you phrase it.

caidalica said on...

December 6, 2008

@confused newbie: how to explain…. i put on fire a big pile of straw i don’t know the correct word for this but more precisely it was 1400 or 2000 bundles.two days on fire!!!scary but i was not alone and it was long time ago i’m wise now

Re Radio requests:

They are voting on songs to request. Each week, the top song request goes out to all the radio stations listed on the blog. You need to follow this link to add your local radio stations so they are on the list.

http://www.kinagrannis.com/blog/street-team-radio-requests/stations/

That’s our job, ppl. We need to make 1000 requests now. Bla(h)g is cool, but we need her to get air time on all the radio stations in every major city!!!!!

Very important for everyone to see Misa’s post for details. It’s in the forum under:

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: You are right. That is her nature. She has always practiced until she could do whatever it was she wanted to do, and do it correctly.

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@avweije: She hasn’t had a weekly allowance since about 2003.

Dr G said on...

@TimR: Sorry…..

Yohan said on...

December 6, 2008

@maryannee: Haha, neither. I throw out random green M&M bets, sometimes real, sometimes fake. Inside joke, ever since a friend of mine was supposed to be the green M&M for some advertising.

@confused newbie: I don’t know, but I’m honored that you’d think so! Maybe I’m a long lost relative. Or maybe Mama G and Dr G will adopt me =D

@avweije: I’m a fan of Dutch style Muay Thai, although it’s been ages since I’ve seen some kickboxing matches. I like Savate and Kyokushin too.

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

Just an educated guess!! But I could tell a bit about her perfectionism just seeing her vids. Another reason that we think of Kina as an ideal role model.

thuff7 said on...

Hey Evann, I think this is the beginning of a whole new chapter in Kination!!

Hey, hope you had a great Saturday. Did you work today?? Sorry if I missed it if you said so already. All these kazillion posts are tough to keep up with. But I think I have read them all. But the missus is feeling a little widowed lately!!

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: How are you this evening? Do you think everyone is watching the boxing match??

evann said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7:

lol well the misses should recognize ;) kination is as essential to life as air haha

yeh i did work today..
it was deathly slow.. so all i did was talk with the pastry chefs and flirt with the older college girls (oh my ;) its fun!!– they think i’m 18 for some reason lol) and though there were way too many mini pastry orders, they were expecting it and thus staffed enough people to handle it… which means i didn’t even get help make anything… i wish i did it’s really fun ;)

@maryannee:

Hey Maryannee!! Boxing isn’t my cup of tea. We’re doing better here this evening. Nathan was really sick all day with a stomach bug. and whenever he got sick, he would cry. So I sat with him all day trying to make him feel better. I’m just hoping it doesn’t spread. Kids get sick for a day but the parents get sick much longer!! Anyway, so it goes.

How bout you tonight. What’s it like in Toronto this evening??

We are dying to take the boys to the falls, then head to Toronto. Hopefully not too long from now. We’ll have to get some travel tips from you!!!

I suppose the falls are all touristy and cheesy, but I do research on rivers and Nathan comes along with me. For him a 1 foot fall is the coolest thing on the whole river!!

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@evann: OK, you got me. I’ll do the same setup at the store in Mission viejo.

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

Hey, 1234. I like the feel of that number.

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

You know you hit 777 also, right? If this trend continues, you may get four of a kind!!!

evann said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

ha! sounds like a plan sir!

and yah you have managed some pretty crazy numbers.. 777, 1040 (a little scary), and now 1234.. kinda crazy

evann said on...

December 6, 2008

sorry for the double post.. but id like to point out that misa landed a comment on 666… hmmm.. interesting lol ;)

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: Boxing doesn’t really do it for me either:/. Awh man I hope Nathan is feeling better, show him some kina maybe?

There’s snow and it’s cold! But that’s how it goes and we’re used to it. Yes the falls are very pretty :). I’m afraid I don’t know much about Toronto though :s. I actually live like 20mins away from the city so I’m not much of a city girl. Suburbs ftw!

thuff7 said on...

Yes, burbs FTW here, too!!

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: Well that’s good. Hmm I wonder when we’ll get the street team packages…. I’m kind of excited!

thuff7 said on...

December 6, 2008

@maryannee:

Oh, yeah I know!! Very excited. First, getting *anything* from Kina is awesome. But to have a chance to go out and help . . .

I’ll be all over those DJs like white on rice!

maryannee said on...

December 6, 2008

@thuff7: Yea! And to tell you the truth it’s actually kind of fun =D! Haha white on rice huh? haha never heard that on before ;). Anyway, I’m tired and sleepy(too many crazy people at the mall today) so I’m off to bed!

Good night and take care everyone!!!

@Dr G: anything for us in the left side before feb.? And how are you today sir?

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

I agree. Too much negative news about the economy. Just listen to Kina’s music and enjoy life a little.

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@Alexpham: Thanks for asking. I am actually fine right now. Decorating the house for the holidays.

And as for Kina, there is a slim chance that she will have shows in LA and San Diego before New Years. Think you can make one or the other?

Alexpham said on...

December 6, 2008

@confused newbie: hi newb so hows your day buddy? Oh in accounting i am learning banking yay…-_-

Dr G said on...

December 6, 2008

@confused newbie: I agree. So much of what is negative is the fear produced by reading nothing but negatives. Focus on beauty, music, happiness, and surprisingly it starts happening around you.

confused newbie said on...

December 6, 2008

@Dr G:

any chance of snow??

Alexpham said on...

@confused newbie: Too much attention to the market and news these days carries the risk of heart attack. Better to concentrate on things of beauty, people we love, music, learning what we know better, and doing our best at that.

Now is the time to invest in common stock. Look for stocks that are near their 52 week low, with opportunity of a capital gain of at least 10x. I’m drunk, that’s why I’m giving financial advice. PSU vs. USC in the Rose Bowl! Kina you goin down girl!!

@TimR:

You gave it a shot, TimR!! Has anyone kept a list of the known songs Kina hinted at in her tweets? It wasn’t close to 12, but it will get us guessing!!

TimR said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7: From her Twitter history, here’s what she hinted at:
The Goldfish Song
Strong Enough
Together
The World in Front of Me (which I’ve never heard)
Heart and Mind

I think that’s all she hinted at or outright mentioned. Someone feel free to look at her Twitter history to see if there’s something I missed, because obviously that’s only 5 of 12 that we know about. Of course, I don’t know how far along in the process she is, but there’s always a chance the label won’t like certain songs and then those would be left out.

thuff7 said on...

December 7, 2008

@TimR:

I would guess that an awesome version of “Message from Your Heart” would be on it. That’s her capstone song.
Probably “Delicate”.
I thought she twittered some lalalalala’s. So probably “My Time with You” (special guest vocalist??).
Was “Gotta Digg” published already?

TimR said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7: Probably right on Message and Delicate. I’d say possibly on My time with You. She does tend to do lalala a lot (for more fun alliteration, see Bob Loblaw’s Law blog). Plus, she didn’t Twitter about David Choi being in the studio, unless they’re going to use the previously recorded version. Gotta digg wasn’t published.

@TimR:

Well, still, it’s fun to speculate.
Change of topic: what did you take at UT, if you don’t mind the question?
I’m in academics, so I am always interested. Let’s see, you already mentioned you like stats. Business, maybe? Well, just for conversational purposes. :)

Hey gigi44. Dress warmly and expect a bumpy landing. 35 degrees and windy. gusting to 35 knots. But aren’t you from Chi-town? Should be used to it.

DC for business or pleasure? Dulles or National?

a little update from work…

i love when people order 120 mini pastries and then give us two telephone numbers that don’t work.. and then never pick up their order ;) oh whats that? did ne1 hear money going down the drain?

thuff7 said on...

December 7, 2008

@evann:

hahaha!! I had a pizzeria for a number of years. The big joke was calling up, ordering 3 pies with the works for delivery and sending them to the neighbor as a joke or as a form of revenge. They don’t realize the target of their joke can’t be forced to pay. Then we started checking the phone number they gave us with the caller ID. (This was before you could hide your number). Even with the phone number of the person ordering, the police wouldn’t intervene. It seems a phone order isn’t a legal commitment to make a purchase, so no crime done. I’d have to sell a lot of pizzas before the low markup covered the loss in ingredients. Sometimes you get another order in time to swap them out while they’re still hot and fresh, but not if they had anchovies!!!!

So, anyway, hope you have some good coffee to go with those pastries!!
Hope the rest of your day goes better!!

thuff7 said on...

December 7, 2008

Oh, and we learned to give call backs to confirm big orders b4 we made them.

The folks who played the jokes above did get a large number of early morning phone (2 am) calls from phone booths from our kitchen team who was up anyway for the late night crowd. ;-D

@Screwy:

hehehehe! Savory indeed!!

I’m never above a little mischief!! ;-) (hear that, street teamers?–though I’d never dishonor the Maestra)

Anyways. working til 2 AM is not a recommended pathway to longevity, so I am safely tucked in the world of academia now–which gives me a great chance to blog *and* work at the same time!!

TimR said on...

@thuff7: For my Bachelor’s I majored in Business and minored in Economics. My Master’s is in Statistics. My eyes are still crossed from the Statistical theory classes. I’ve always been more interested in applied stats myself.

And, while we’re on unrelated stuff, pomegranates are extremely messy. I, as well as my kitchen, shirt, and pants, learned that the hard way. I guess there’s a reason the juice is so expensive.

evann said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7: lol yeah i mean i can still sell them to other people but its the principal of it all.. like who does that.. “today i hafto pick up my dry cleaning, buy mom a card, and on my way to the dentist i need to place a fake $120 dollar order at cassis..”

lol i just don’t see how that goes through your head

@TimR: and from this post Cambridge too.

hey all… happy sunday!

avweije said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7: LOL @ roast duck, that was a good idea actually, had them over for coffee/tea and some bread and butter pudding. Just got back, drove them back to my mom’s and had drinks with them there, will see them some more this week for a bite to eat. Going for my famous cottage pie then (could be shepards pie, never know which is which, 1 is beef, the other is lamb).

@TimR: I found out once that when you make a carrot soup, and you get to the point of having to blend it all with a blender (in the soup pan), it’s handy to wear an aprin (sp?).

Or at least the t-shirt I was wearing that day feels so.

AP isn’t here right now so I’ll cover for him:

What is your favorite type of pizza??

confused newbie said on...

December 7, 2008

one of the best that i’ve tried was a chicken pesto pie

December 7, 2008

hey huff! how’s nathan?

December 7, 2008

@evann:

Yeah, no kidding. Just rudeness, I s’pose. Working with the public is tough. Anyway they a can get you, they will. But most ppl are good at heart, and such a pleasure to work with. Unfortunately, one or two bad experiences always stick in your mind longer than the good’uns. Que sera.

TimR said on...

December 7, 2008

@g3mini: Right! I think that was the one that I didn’t immediately get at the time. And she did Twitter “it’s not the same for me”, which hints at “Delicate.” Here’s the current list:

The Goldfish Song
Strong Enough
Together
The World in Front of Me (which I’ve never heard)
Heart and Mind
Cambridge
Delicate

@confused newbie:

First, Nathan’s gr8. Back to normal. 24 hour stomach bug. He was worried it was a permanent thing!! But we’re keeping him strapped down, plenty of fluids and small snacks til he perks up.

Pizza – well, of course NY and NJ make pizza pies – all others are distant cousins. hehehe. But combo wise, you cannot beat this: pepperoni, onions and mushrooms. Try beating that, but ur are just wasting $$ trying.

confused newbie said on...

December 7, 2008

wow, what an impressive list of songs!

avweije said on...

December 7, 2008

@confused newbie: lol – favorite pizza is pizza salami or pepperoni, same diff :P

okay, let’s all step up a bit cause of AP’s absence..

what’s your favorite “what’s your favorite” question by AP so far?

confused newbie said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7:

pepperoni is ALWAYS good

avweije said on...

December 7, 2008

@thuff7: I’m still waiting for my killer pizza sauce recipe..?

Glad Nathan is feeling better :)

avweije said on...

December 7, 2008

@confused newbie: my man!

confused newbie said on...

December 7, 2008

another i like is this combo:

Salami, Mushrooms, Onion, Italian Sausage & Hot Peppers

confused newbie said on...

December 7, 2008

@avweije:

hey wassup?? i agree with you…the sauce does need to be good to make a quality pizza.

TimR said on...

December 7, 2008

@confused newbie: And actually, add “Stars Falling Down” to that list. She mentioned it in the Nov. 4 bla(h)g post (text portion). Also, just to clarify a few points: These are songs she hinted at recording. In no way are they guaranteed to be in her current list of 12, or the final album. Lastly, the Cambridge hint wasn’t from a Twitter post that I could find, but I do remember the hint being given so it might have been a blahg post.
