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: well change it to an easier one this time can it be your sons or realted to you?
December 4, 2008
@avweije:
really!!! well, the pond gave it away (back in the duck posts!!! hahaha), plus I saw you out back waving to the satellite!!
awesome sailing village. you must sail, right??!!
December 4, 2008
@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??
December 4, 2008
@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.
December 4, 2008
i cant get my picture to work anyone can help?
December 4, 2008
@maryannee: ,@Daniel_Baird: ,and @avweije: what the heck argh! and explodes into mini alexses? hahaha!
@thuff7: hahaha yea just waiting until he is teething and talking. well g2g eat bye.
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
Isn’t that amazing!!! Probably the best time to learn a foreign (or domestic) language!!
Sounds nice in Vegas. No humidity right??? Is that pacific time??
enjoy your nice evening!!
December 4, 2008
@Daniel_Baird: o go to gravatar.com and add a pic and wait 5-10 minutes.
December 4, 2008
@g3mini yeah its mad

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.
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.
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.
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??
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 . . .
December 4, 2008
@avweije: haha… yeah, just let me know!
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.
December 4, 2008
we are about to break the last blog record!!!!
December 4, 2008
Hey hey my avy is there :D cheers guys
December 4, 2008
600!
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.
December 4, 2008
@Daniel_Baird:
DANG!!!!!!!! You got 600!!!!
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
Sorry, Pacific Standard Time (PST) as opposed to us EST.

December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
great, just here for a bit!
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: yup, i’m right there with AP & newbie (i think).
December 4, 2008
newbie got beaten by a newbie (assume DB is a newbie?)
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.
December 4, 2008

December 4, 2008
@thuff7:

December 4, 2008
@Daniel_Baird:

December 4, 2008
@avweije:

December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: So what are your one or two favs?
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: yumm!
@Daniel_Baird: I have a feeling you are scottish?

soon as my acoustic guitar comes im gonna be doing some cover of kina music
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…
December 4, 2008
@g3mini: i dont have a fav or two for that matter just love them all
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.
December 4, 2008
@avweije: wont be anything serious just for fun playing is just a hobby of mine i sing a little too
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.
December 4, 2008
hello. newb lol
December 4, 2008
What kind of guitar are you getting? I want a new accoustic, but might wait for next year to get it.
December 4, 2008
@avweije: videos are good i dont like when songs sound over perfect makes them sound fake IMO good job Im getting the same one kina has
December 4, 2008
Im off to bed now really late need sleep bye bye
December 4, 2008
@Daniel_Baird: nite
December 4, 2008
Question what would you wear that would impress kina to look at you and shout out to u at a concert?
I would wear her shirt and say “I love Your shirt that i bought from you and that i love your music!”lol
December 4, 2008
@Alexpham: haha I was waiting for the question of the night ;). Hmm…
December 4, 2008
@maryannee: well i had like two already but 4 or 5 in total on this post hahaha!
December 4, 2008
@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!!
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!
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!
December 4, 2008
@thuff7:Nathan seems very promising for the future as an English teacher. lol
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: Oh man, I have to watch my spelling and grammar from now on ;) hehe
December 4, 2008
@maryannee: so christmas shopping yet??
December 4, 2008
@Alexpham:
ummmmm. A David Choi mask.
December 4, 2008
@maryannee:
No, he likes it when ppl break the rules. He’s an amateur anarchist like his Daddy!! He want’s to know about all the acronyms and such!!
December 4, 2008
@Alexpham:
Well, also g3mini has some cool T designs. We could all get one and go as a bla(h)g team!!!
December 4, 2008
@Alderin: **gasp** /happydance
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: kina is allergic to cats and ferrets, at least :)
December 4, 2008

@thuff7: haha true true. That’s crazy. The stores at that time are so scary!
@confused newbie: excuse you ;p
December 4, 2008
Alrighty, I’m out. Taking care of kids is tiring. I don’t know how my parents did it with 7, or any parent for that matter! Parents are cool like that!
Good night Kinaknights! Take care <3.
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: (in unison): AWWWWWWW

December 4, 2008
excuse me! sorry had to answer the phone!
December 4, 2008
@Misa:
thanks, Misa. He’s all tucked in. Tired from Karate after school. I’ll tell him tomorrow. He will definitely be psyched for the shout out!
Tonight we read the Magic Tree House and the Egyptian Mummies.
December 4, 2008
@maryannee:
nighty night!
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie:
gesundheit!
December 4, 2008
@Misa:
so what other allergy does our maestra have?
i, personally, do not like cats. i love dogs. i guess i’ve ran into a few too many ‘psycho’ cats during my childhood days.
December 4, 2008
@thuff7:
hey huff! thanks!!
what are we awwwwing about? *scrolls up*
December 4, 2008
@g3mini: didja guys miss the post where he vowed never to return because I scolded him for posting a scandalous video about slugs on the last post? :P
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
yep, dinner was very good. i’m debating whether i should have some tim tams for dessert.
December 4, 2008
@Misa:
sabafa? where has he been? i caught about two secs of that slug video. was it that bad?
December 4, 2008
@Misa: i saw that… wow, was he serious?! come to think of it, yeah, he hasn’t been in here since.
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: everyone & their tim tams… i’m gonna look for some now!
December 4, 2008
@Alexpham:
what would i wear to impress kina? hmm…
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
@g3mini:
target!
December 4, 2008
@maryannee: yeah, SO clever they steal all your stuff and hide it under couches or deep in closets.
*natch*
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. /)_(\
December 4, 2008
is sabafa a long time kina fan?
December 4, 2008
damn! 701!
December 4, 2008
listening to carrie underwood’s ‘just a dream’
such a sad song…
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….
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
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??
December 4, 2008
@thuff7:
why does he have problems sleeping?
December 4, 2008
*skips back to happy thanksgiving*
December 4, 2008
@Misa:
whoooo hoooo, big 700, wow. Misa cracks the lucky number.
Yes, We’ll miss ya when you leave. You’ve spoiled us with all your attention!!
December 4, 2008
@thuff7:
just caught that ‘huff’ comment…
now you got me lol…
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie:
I dunno. He was pretty cryptic, huh??
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
lol!! yup. Kids too. But the ferret image is funny.
December 4, 2008
well hopefully a Kina fan is not lost forever…
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
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: speaking of kids, check out this sponge of a kid… my older sister taught my godson this thing & he picked it up quickly… enjoy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u_Omk3UBEc
December 4, 2008
i’m sure he’ll be back…
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
that’s your godson?
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: yes, that is my godson! haha…
December 4, 2008
@Misa:
kinerd? hahaha…
December 4, 2008
hey kina so….just wanted to let you know your pretty much awesome…ive been watchin you videos since befor crash the super bowl…well when you started puttin them up. any who just wanted to know if any way possible you could do a tutorial video on your song goodbye….my favorite….i could probably figure it out on my own so if not thats ok…….well stay cool kina lookin forward to that new cd

@g3mini:

December 4, 2008
can you guys see comment 714?
December 4, 2008
Holy posts batman! This could take awhile to catch up on… /sigh
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: lol… there are so many vids on my computer that i have to go through… there are many many…!
December 4, 2008
@g3mini:
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.
December 4, 2008
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.
December 4, 2008
wow… u guys are awesome.. 0ver 700+ .. go for a thousand!! :)
December 4, 2008
@Alderin:
this is funny but true…
when i first saw you in her SF video clips, i thought you were her bodyguard…
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!!
December 4, 2008
yeah.. its only thursday.. if the rate keeps up, more than likely it will be around 1400 by monday.
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: haha… you actually know where that’s from? oh wait, you have two boys of your own.
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.
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!!!
December 4, 2008
@thuff7: i think everyone in my family learned that song – the right way & the wrong way! hahaha…
December 4, 2008
my very eager mother just sat upon nine planets.. i remember that from elementary.. i wonder what they use now that its only 8 :p
December 4, 2008

@Code2mind: David Choi will smile once he gets a certain number of subscribers… to which he is very close :-)
December 4, 2008
oic.. lol.. i’ll be rooting for it.. that and charles trippys..
December 4, 2008
I guess close is relative though… last I checked he has 76,712 and he is aiming for 77,777
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.
December 4, 2008
yay reached our mark =)
December 4, 2008
@confused newbie: whoa miss yea buddy going to sleep gd nite.
December 4, 2008
@Alexpham: thuff7 set a new goal many comments ago… 1000. i’m sure we’ll get there, but yay for 700!
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*

@kina:
yaaaay d cd is done!! 12 songs?! too bad not more!!! eheheh! so wen can we hear it?! or buy it?!
December 5, 2008
b00!
December 5, 2008
@confused newbie: Kina said february, march (i guess in the music bussiness this means april :) ). But the album is done -yaaaaayyy- , so who knows ;) Album cover, and find (plus rehearsal with) a band is still ahead…
December 5, 2008
congrats Screwy!
congrats Misa for making the 700 post!
December 5, 2008
@Kina: Congrats hun! I am sure you did a great job and can’t wait to hear the album :)
December 5, 2008
Here’s one more post towards 800!
December 5, 2008
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!!
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!!!!
December 5, 2008
That sounds tempting even to me and I’ve never seen a Tim Tam.
December 5, 2008
wow that looks amazing: Chocolate Butternut Tartlets
I think I’d basically trade any plastic disc for something that makes that.
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.
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!!!
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)
December 5, 2008
the uranus song could be on there *rolls eyes*
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.
December 5, 2008
Thanks everyone.
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
December 5, 2008
@Dr G:
Oh, you lucky dad!!!
December 5, 2008
@Dr G:
get you a pack of tim tams if you do a quick switcheroo and bootleg some copies . . .
December 5, 2008
@Screwy:
Yeah, screwy. Hope your b’day is awesome!!
December 5, 2008
cant wait for the cd to be released.. :) heres one more for the 800 mark.
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?
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
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
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?”
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.”
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 :-)
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?
December 5, 2008
@Glenn:
thanks…
good morning to you.
can i put the star on top?? haha… yay for christmas deco!
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: I will never forget those moments and I will never stop bragging about Anna Kournikova :P
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)
December 5, 2008
ugh I need to stop doing that. That’s me ^^
December 5, 2008
@maryannee: I had a feeling it was you, lol ;-)
December 5, 2008
800!
December 5, 2008
muahahaha!
December 5, 2008
Nice picture gemini :) can you make one where I’m snatching the CD from Kina?
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.
December 5, 2008
@avweije: haha… take a picture of yourself pretending to snatch it… and yup, i can do that!!!! lol
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!!
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.
December 5, 2008
@g3mini: nice summary… maryannee seems to be taking the cake!
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*.
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: that works then because 9ft. is just too high to reach! lol…
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
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)!!
December 5, 2008
you can jump can’t you gem?
December 5, 2008
@avweije: jump?? *confused*
December 5, 2008
@g3mini: haha that’s true.
@avweije: or we could make a human pyramid…?
December 5, 2008
so many posts…so little time.
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?
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.
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
December 5, 2008
Dr. Phil time! I’m out for a bit :)
– “This is gonna be a changing day in your life.”
“Let’s do it!”
December 5, 2008
@avweije: ahaha…!!!
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. :-)
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: don’t know about being tossed up in the air… i think i’d be scared!!! :S yikes!
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: LOL
(ok, gone now)
December 5, 2008
@maryannee: Yeah, they flip out and scamper everywhere. It’s fun. :)
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.
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: well, if you’re only putting up the small one, we’re fine! lol
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.
December 5, 2008
@maryannee:
Yay!!!! I knew you’d come through with a big number!!!!
December 5, 2008
@Glenn:
If you do toss g3mini up to put up the star, we want a YouTube post!!!
December 5, 2008
yay for the weekend!!! whose pumped for it?!
December 5, 2008
@evann:
Yo!!!

December 5, 2008

@avweije: Ooo sounds fun. Mmmm bread and butter pudding. Planning on showing us some Kina covers?!

December 5, 2008
@maryannee: babysitting kinda sounds like fun, but tiring too, as for decoration, I’m half done, still need to get my tree (tomorrow hopefully).
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.

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.
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.
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?
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.
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 :))
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 :-)
December 5, 2008
@Glenn: it’ll pass the time of boredom =) wat about you?
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…
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.
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!!!

@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?
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 =)
December 5, 2008
@Mama G: Lucky!! That tops all of our plans for the weekend combined!!!
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…

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.
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!
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??
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.
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.
December 5, 2008

lol here ray
December 5, 2008
900!!!!
December 5, 2008
Me?
December 5, 2008
OMGoodnessss nooooooo! I meant to by 899! I’m so sorryyyyy!
December 5, 2008
@thuff7:
shucks
December 5, 2008
NOOOOOOOO@@@!!!
December 5, 2008
@maryannee: wow… someone has their timing down to a tee ;-)
sometimes you can’t help being precise :-)
December 5, 2008
I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to…. I. am. lame.
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 :(.
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 ;-)
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.
-wwar1ace
December 5, 2008
@maryannee:
that was awesome.
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!
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*.
December 5, 2008
good job all.
hope ur are all well
December 5, 2008
@Mama G:
my bribe is: 10 pounds of peppermint bark, a whole bunch of pastries, and maybe a super intense high five!!… intriguing, eh? hahaha
December 5, 2008
okay. well, uh, bye.
December 5, 2008
@g3mini:
oh. sorry g3mini. i didn’t mean to be rude. sorry.
December 5, 2008
@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!
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.
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!
how’s everyone??
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!
December 5, 2008
@g3mini:
thanks.
enjoy the blog.
hope you all get the 1000.
bye.
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!
December 5, 2008
@Mama G: ok thanks for the advice its bear the AC most of time right and the defroster is near it also?
December 5, 2008
@maryannee: wow beat rey eh? hahaha!
December 5, 2008
@g3mini: can i ask for the color scheme?
December 5, 2008
@Alexpham: color scheme?? of our christmas decorating?? or the guest room??
christmas decorations, just the traditional reds & greens.
December 5, 2008
@g3mini: the guest room sorry for not being specific hahaha! wat time is itin nevada 10:30? I want to go to Vegas to visit family i miss them. =(
December 5, 2008
love life. =)
December 5, 2008
whoa no one is here?
December 5, 2008
how are we going to get to 100 0?(shouts hello…nothing everyone asleep alone hundles in a corner saying i am so alone…creepy)hahaha! wow i am bored! =)
December 5, 2008
WEEEEEEE!(sings together) You and me together,together then hums it yay!
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
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…
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.
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*
December 6, 2008
@Alderin: frog legs are the best!
December 6, 2008
@Alderin: that is not cheating lol
December 6, 2008
@Alderin: amaranth wats that?
December 6, 2008
the time here is an hour early in pacific time.
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???
December 6, 2008
wow 59 morei am so excited lol
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.
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! =)
December 6, 2008
@Alderin: maybe it is not set to daylight savings?
December 6, 2008
@Alderin: is there a DST setting…?? the time didn’t *fall* back with the rest of us.
December 6, 2008
@g3mini: so are you thai g3m?
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham:
you ate fruit bat too??
you never heard of “drop dead fred”. it’s about a little girl & her imaginary friend… OMG, it’s an awesome movie. here check this out…
http://www.fanpop.com/spots/drop-dead-fred
December 6, 2008
@g3mini: yea it was like quail for me hahaha!
December 6, 2008
@Glenn: Hi Glenn, sorry, but I don’t remember any of the Berkeley stations. I’ll ask a friend in Sausalito.
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).
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.
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham: no, i’m not thai. i’m from guam.
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: LOL… don’t you think it’s like her to be fair?! hehe… lol. well, goodnight to you and yours there in CA.
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: good night sir/morning in 6 minutes lol
December 6, 2008
@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)

December 6, 2008
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!!!
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).
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.

Well, be cool all.
December 6, 2008

@avweije:

December 6, 2008
my fav Christmas song is…..

December 6, 2008
@avweije:
Here’s a sure thing Christmas song:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKTHvW2JcAA
December 6, 2008
@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..
December 6, 2008
@thuff7: yeah we fell the magic
who has already cut a Christmas tree?
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..
parampampampam
December 6, 2008
ask for a kina shuffle session i know she’s not a jukebox but it could be cool
December 6, 2008
YAYYY 1000+ woot!!!! kination FTW!! 1000 posts in 5 days!! ya ya ya!!!

December 6, 2008
@avweije:
Smelly cat, smelly cat.
what are they feeding you? -Phoebe
December 6, 2008
@evann:
bagel wid a schmear??
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham: I do ;)
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..
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!!!
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
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
December 6, 2008
@avweije:
hehehe it’s a fav ’round here. we got two cats so that’s the litter box cleaning song!!!
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!
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!
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?
December 6, 2008
@thuff7:
a bagel with what?!
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!”
December 6, 2008
@avweije:
ROTFLMAO – (okay, old acronym, but fit).
Phoebs – “How many chords do you know?”
CH – “All of them.”
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!!
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
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”
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: can you put pressure on her by stopping her weekly allowance?
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!! :(
December 6, 2008
*Ross and Monica exchange the ribbed condoms (for her pleasure) with one of the cans*
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!
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.
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)
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?????
December 6, 2008
I missed 1000! Dang!!!
congrats to my bud AP!!!
can’t stay…
December 6, 2008
OH and..
congrats to kina on the fully produced cd! way to go!
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?
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!
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!!!
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!!!
December 6, 2008
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.
December 6, 2008
@Glenn: what is that banana flambeau?
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?
December 6, 2008
@caidalica: smallville,house,supernantural,bones, chuck, and that 70s show. lol

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.
December 6, 2008

Fire sounds nice, will put it on in a bit.

Oh oh! I went to the Apple store today, went on as many computer as I could(it’s a crazy house in there btw) and left Kina’s youtube page open for all to seeeeeee!!!!!!
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
hehe…i like that apple store story!
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
Hey maryannee!!
I wasn’t feeling well yesterday and didn’t get to chat.
Gotta say I really, really missed everyone very much, you, AP, g3mini, newbie, avweije, Misa, Evann (if I missed your name, I’m just having brain lock so don’t take it to mean anything..)
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!
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
Yay!! Great street team move!! It’s clever and has just the right smidgen of mischief in it.
December 6, 2008
i have an idea for kina a online gig for Europe with a big screen and HD sound !!!!it could be fun and creative (i known it’s better in real but i can’t wait for her tour)
December 6, 2008
@ maryannee: I do that too!!! *high five*
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham:
fav movie:
The Shawshank Redepmtion
December 6, 2008
@caidalica: Friday Night Lights, 30 Rock, Californication, Weeds, Chuck, How I Met yout Mother, and i hate to admit, but i like Gossip Girl :) (but i’ll never forgive cw for cancelling veronica mars)
December 6, 2008
@confused newbie:
Good one.
Big time fav classic is on 2nite. “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”
“Who are those guys?”
December 6, 2008
@thuff7:
hey huff! i was away yesterday too and i come check this morning and it was well past 1000!! i was blown away!!
December 6, 2008
@thuff7: yea my ba noi uses them well i rather use western medicine give nathan some pepto and does nathan has asthma?
December 6, 2008
oops typo, meant Redemption.
i hate when i spell something wrong!
December 6, 2008
@Mama G:
Too funny. I’d love to see that in the act!!
My last one was passing out anonymous Tim Tam packs with
“Gift from kinagrannis.com” tags on them.
December 6, 2008
@asdf: i like 30 rock and specially tina fey and californication it’s damn good i star to watch the 2nd season.
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham:
you guys talking those little pellet thingys??
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.
December 6, 2008
@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.
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.
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!!!
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
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
Oh wow, how kind, ear-to-ear grin on me now!! =D
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 :)
December 6, 2008
@Mama G: is it a mission for all kination’s members?i’m in hahaha
December 6, 2008
@thuff7:
felt bad…AP was there with me when i got 1 and i missed his 1000.
SORRY AP!!
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. =)
December 6, 2008
@maryannee, @Mama G: lol, you ladies are hilarious
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
@confused newbie: its ok homes lol you nvr pm-ed me on the youtube. been busy with boba? hahaha!
December 6, 2008
@confused newbie:
Yes, that must be very hard!!
December 6, 2008

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..
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham: A package! No one knows what’s inside except for the G’s
December 6, 2008
hi everyone!!!
@Alexpham: are u talkin bout nebulizer treatments? a mask n der like water like stuff on d bottom of d mask?
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….
December 6, 2008
@gigi44: yeah as kid now that im older just the inhaler.
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!!
December 6, 2008
@Mama G: hahaha! i shall do it later today.

Also, add your local stations to this list:

Note that they want a concerted effort to maximize impact.
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)
December 6, 2008
@Mama G: Wow. I don’t know about you guys but I’m not sure I’m cut out for the job…(hehehe)

@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!!!
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)! :)
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*
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 :)
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.
December 6, 2008
@gigi44: I’m rooting for Pac-Man.
December 6, 2008
@ asdf: oops, my mistake. Inflating the figures a little :)
December 6, 2008
@Mama G:

December 6, 2008
You don’t mess with the Yohan….

December 6, 2008
@Mama G:
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!!
December 6, 2008
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….

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:

@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.
December 6, 2008
@avweije: She hasn’t had a weekly allowance since about 2003.
December 6, 2008
@TimR: Sorry…..
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.
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.
December 6, 2008
@caidalica:
Hey caidalica, sorry if I missed your sign off. Looks like you’ve been enjoying your stay. It’s great to have you around!! Keep coming back to join us. We like your perspective!!
December 6, 2008
@evann:
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!!
December 6, 2008
@thuff7: How are you this evening? Do you think everyone is watching the boxing match??
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 ;)
December 6, 2008
@Mama G: yes mam i have no recommendations though i volunteered at a hospital helping patients. =)
December 6, 2008
Question: Wat was your best Christmas present ever?
mine was my first gameboy it was the pocket and i played it for years still have it with pokemon blue version lol.
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham:
pokemon silver >blue!!! rahhhhh!!! :)
December 6, 2008
@Mama G:

1. together
2. goldfish song
3. hallelujah
4. her yourtube page

and then a couple iphones to her page on itunes
;)
December 6, 2008
@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!!
December 6, 2008
@evann: OK, you got me. I’ll do the same setup at the store in Mission viejo.
December 6, 2008
Hey, 1234. I like the feel of that number.
December 6, 2008
@Dr G:
You know you hit 777 also, right? If this trend continues, you may get four of a kind!!!
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
December 6, 2008
sorry for the double post.. but id like to point out that misa landed a comment on 666… hmmm.. interesting lol ;)
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!
December 6, 2008
@evann:
hehehe, I know, but think I need to get a boss key plugin for my firefox browser!
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
Thanks. I actually showed him your get well message along with AP’s and avweije’s. He bounces back very quickly and will be zooming around in the morning!!
Yes, burbs FTW here, too!!
December 6, 2008
@thuff7: Well that’s good. Hmm I wonder when we’ll get the street team packages…. I’m kind of excited!
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!
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!!!
December 6, 2008
@maryannee:
nighty night m.a.!!!
December 6, 2008
Hey, all, East Coast signing off. Take it away folks out west.
We’ll check out your posts in the AM!!
peace and grace to you all.
I <3 Kination!!
December 6, 2008
@g3mini:
Hi g3mini, was about to hit the hay, but forgot that I wanted to tell you how awesome your kina with the CD is!!! I was under the weather last night and forgot.
Wow. :o
Mind if I “copy image” on that one? It may be a collectors item!! I will attribute to you of course!!!
g’night. hope you have a very happy evening!!
December 6, 2008
@gigi44: Pacman took it!!!
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: so the allowance thing is a no-go then, too bad.
anybody out there?
out there..
there..
drops a pin
December 6, 2008
@thuff7: thats the viet blood your talking about eh? hahaha! jk
December 6, 2008
whoa got to catch up! =)
December 6, 2008
man lost 30 bucks pac-man won but great fight thought delahoya had a chance but dang!
December 6, 2008
so anyone out there just checking?=D
Ok question: What was your first concert?
Mine was a jimmy eat world concert well it was a compilation of bands in a radio concert called weenie roast yup KROQ 106.7 itwas awesome and now for my winter break i am spending so much on concerts this year and yea hopefully kina’s over here in the 818-valley =)
December 6, 2008
right now listening to spirit in the sky so awesome and nxt the goldfish song heehee…
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: anything for us in the left side before feb.? And how are you today sir?
December 6, 2008
I agree. Too much negative news about the economy. Just listen to Kina’s music and enjoy life a little.
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?
December 6, 2008
@confused newbie: hi newb so hows your day buddy? Oh in accounting i am learning banking yay…-_-
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.
December 6, 2008
@Dr G:
any chance of snow??
December 6, 2008
@Dr G: LA yes if its near the sanfernando yes but diego no sorry but 2 hours is a milestone for my adventures. Um.. well that is cool my neighbours decorated their house and do you have a fun tradition is the Grannis household? well mine is driving with little cousins and taking them though LA and the OC to see christmas decorations this time we’ll make sure to come to MV =)
December 6, 2008
@Alexpham:
great! first concert?…hmm, i think it was janet jackson.
@Dr G:
exactly! that’s why i dislike the stock market and all the hype/fear that surrounds it.
December 7, 2008
@confused newbie: true my business teacher is not worried he has five houses and breathes business hahaha! he tells us not to worry. =)
December 7, 2008
hey kina yea man do i feel dumb in response to my last comment a tutorial video would be cool for the song living in dreams not goodbye…..wow what was i talkin about
December 7, 2008
@confused newbie: Sorry, no snow in Southern California. But is might rain tomorrow and with some thunder and lightening.
December 7, 2008
@Alexpham: How is the downtown LA area for you?
December 7, 2008
@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.
December 7, 2008
@Dr G: i think i can but its 30 minutes away from home home so i think its not a big deal though i might come home late and parents may be mad, but i shall try to figure something out. okey well i am to dreamland so good night sir and to your family and i applied as a streetteam member so i guess i am in right? so i shall will promote it once i get my equipment. so night Dr G hope to meet the family in the near future and end my senior year with a blast at kina concerts. lol ;)
December 7, 2008
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!!
December 7, 2008
YAAAAYYY!! Manny Pacquiao won!!!! He totally tore Dela Hoya up!! hehehe! Poor guy!! I do like Dela Hoya still though!! He’s a legend!! But yaaay!!! Sooo happy! It was an awesome fight!
December 7, 2008
@Alexpham: thanks for leaving a reponse AP :) I am quite happy, cause since one of the vids was accepted by Kina as a response video, I’m getting a lot of viewers (reasonable amount that is, Kina gets a lot :P)
December 7, 2008
who here gives there house an extra clean if they know family is coming over to visit?
I ask since I am having family over this afternoon and am about ready to do some final dusting :P
December 7, 2008
even in a small house there’s tons to clean, gosh
December 7, 2008
hey this is a nice way to keep track of how long I’ve been cleaning, let’s see, 1st post, 3:23am, just taking a break now, some vacuuming left to do.
December 7, 2008
oh my lord, 2 hours and going.. glad you folks are sleeping cause this is tiresome :P
December 7, 2008
@Dr G: Oh well, I had to try. And of course I was more joking than anything.
December 7, 2008
@avweije:
Mornin’ avweije. How’s the cleaning going? What’s planned with the fam?
Roast duck maybe????? j/k =D
December 7, 2008
@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!!
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.
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?
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.
December 7, 2008
Well talk to everyone later or mayb 2mrow!! Off to catch a flight to Washington DC at 11am CST!! hahahah! Have a nice fun day everyone! TC! Ttyl!!!
December 7, 2008
@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. :)
December 7, 2008
@gigi44:
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?
December 7, 2008
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?
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!!
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
December 7, 2008
@thuff7: In your case, revenge was savory :)
December 7, 2008
@thuff7: “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”
That makes me happy. :)
December 7, 2008
@mama g:
@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!!
December 7, 2008
@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.
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
December 7, 2008
@TimR: and from this post Cambridge too.
hey all… happy sunday!
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.
December 7, 2008
@Dr G:
“Better to concentrate on things of beauty”
= Kina’s music *listening to Together*
what a way to start Sunday!
December 7, 2008
@g3mini:
Good morning!!
December 7, 2008
@g3mini:
Hey G3, missed you lately. Wassup??
Hope ur having a gr8 weekend!!
December 7, 2008
AP isn’t here right now so I’ll cover for him:
What is your favorite type of pizza??
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.
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
December 7, 2008
@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.
December 7, 2008
wow, what an impressive list of songs!
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?
December 7, 2008
@thuff7:
pepperoni is ALWAYS good
December 7, 2008
@thuff7: I’m still waiting for my killer pizza sauce recipe..?
Glad Nathan is feeling better :)
December 7, 2008
@confused newbie: my man!
December 7, 2008
another i like is this combo:
Salami, Mushrooms, Onion, Italian Sausage & Hot Peppers
December 7, 2008
@avweije:
hey wassup?? i agree with you…the sauce does need to be good to make a quality pizza.
December 7, 2008
@thuff7:
glad to hear it was 24 hrs and not a 7 day thing!! so he’ll be back up soon and kicking it with his guitar!!
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.
