jakob's wonderful life!

Ok, so I got real bored and decided, hey, I'm going to put an updates page on my page so people can know what is going on here at college. Then I said, HA, like people would come here anywayz. Either way, I'm selfish, and I'm going to force you to read it, so HA! Anywayz....here's my life................


10/16/01--WWWHHHHUUUUUUUZZZZZZUUUPPPPPPPP?!?!??! So, it's the jakob187 in the hizzy, how's the peepz?! Sorry, I'm listening to Coolio right now, I know, odd. But it's a good album, and I haven't listened to it in forever.
So, I'm back home, have been for about a month and a week or something like that. I'm going to start looking for a job this week. I've been kickin it, just chillin, recouping from Phoenix. Man, did that place suck?
To everyone that has come by to see me, thanks. To those who haven't, I know you either hate me or are busy, so I'm waiting patiently. I don't think I've ever put this up on my page, but a coupla months back, I was in my first major car wreck. Yep, my eye is all scarred up and stuff. It's from a fight with the windshield, and guess who lost! I'm still the same adorable Josh though, just have scars on my left eye. Sometimes, when I touch it, it's like I don't even feel them. Does suck though......sometimes, I wish it'd never happened. Of course, that's why they are called accidents.
Well, major announcement......get ready.....I like the new Staind album finally!!! That's right, Break the Cycle has grown on me, so I'm finally able to say, I was wrong. However, it's still not as good as the prior stuff!!!! So, I was FINALLY wrong!!! But, I'm willing to admit it......oh well, I tried. There is so much that has been on my mind. Haven't seen much of Tom.....course, he's busy living, so I can't blame him. Hear from Rod often, about once a week or so. Triston is out and about, so don't hear from him much. He said he'd try to get out here for Thanksgiving though. Hope he does. We'd love to see that black mofo again. Christina is out in San Diego, living her life. She's got a job. So, still to her, congrats. What else? Haven't seen Kristy, even heard from her really. Aubrey is out at college. Jon Williams is over QUITE often. Kinda weird in a way, but it's damn cool.
See, Jon introduced me to karaoke at DJ's the other night. For those who don't know, DJ's is a bar in Elm Mott. I had fun. We just went for pool, but it was karaoke night, so he did Seven Mary Three's "Cumbersome" and Jimi Hendrix's "Red House", and I did Stone Temple Pilot's "Plush". I kept getting people telling me, "You were good!" So, ego boost. Anywayz, I can't think of much else. So, I'm outies. So, what should I quote this time? I KNOW!!!!!

"Ain't nobody dope as me, I'm just so fresh, so clean (so fresh and so clean, clean!)"--Andre3000 and Big Boi, Outkast

9/10/01--HEY!!!! I'm just stopping in for a minute. Well, Triston's parents get in this morning, from what we know. We spent all day yesterday packing our stuff up. I have to stop by Best Buy to pick up some boxes for my cd. I quit work Saturday in order to make time for packing/bills/etc. So, other than that, I'm outies. Quick quote for you all......

"I am an opera singer......"--John McCrea, Cake

Piece!!!


9/6/01--HEY YOUZE GUYZ!!!!!! Well, how's everyone doing? I'm in a cheery mood indeed, and here's why.
First off, I finally got to see O Brother Where Art Thou, and that movie is the best movie EVER!!!! I mean, this movie is just such an awesome idea, and the movie is so colorful and vibrant and alive. I went out and bought the soundtrack the next day. I couldn't be without it. I've been listening to it over and over and over and over and over. I love it. I also got Slipknot's new one, Iowa, and Dry Kill Logic's Darker Side of Nonsense. Must say, very good albums indeed.......except the Dry Kill Logic is edited, but hey, for 7 bucks used, you can't bitch!
Well, for those still in the dark, I'm home in basically one week. That's right, 7 days, one week, and then I'll be in Waco for the rest of a long while. I can't wait to get back home you guyz. I mean, I really need to get home. This place just pisses me off, and I'm sick of it here. Phoenix is hell!!! But, in one week, all that goes away.
I suggest everyone look at the music they listen to, and just think of the groups out there that could care less about the music, and then think of the fact that we listen to about 80% of this music. We're being forcefed this nu metal wave like it's a heart attack. I'm getting sick of looking through all my cds, and not finding anything to listen to. The only reason that happens, I've found, is because I'm sick of music. The music industry sucks, and it needs a change. I don't know, but just think about it.....
Well, I can't really think of nothing else, so, my words of thought:

"Why are you always the one to follow my lead into darkness, I can't defend/Why are you always the one to notice all rejected chances to end all my suffering?"--Flybanger

Piece!!!!!

8/21/01--HEY YOUZE GUYZ!!!!! Today's new music day, and from what my Ziazine says, the new Butthole Surfers came out today. But, I haven't been to a record store since.....well....yesterday, so HEY!!! So, on to the updating.....
Well, our phone is disconnected, and that's not a bad thing. Got disconnected a day early, four weeks left, excuse my french, but fuck it! Honest opinion. 200 bucks ain't worth it. What else? Well, since we had some extra money from not bothering about phone, I went to Zia (local record store....think Empire Records, but smaller), and I got Unloco's Healing used, and Cake's newest one, Comfort Eagle, for Tom. THE NEW CAKE RULES!!!!! EVERYONE SHOULD LOVE CAKE, BECAUSE CAKE RULES!!!!! So, yes Manacotta, I LIKE CAKE!!!! A LOT!!!!! Not as much as Tool though, who are planning the second video from Lateralus, for the song "Parabola", which is just an adrenaline paced, awesome song, and the harmonics solo that Adam plays during the second chorus set it AMAZING!!!!!!
For those that don't know, murder is ALWAYS an option......but assassination is a MUCH BETTER option. he he he.........
Ummm.....not much else. Well, that's bout it, so piece. And some last words:

"I fucking tried your way/And I don't like what I see/Cuz I've been put to test/And faced all the rest/And useless is all I'll be/So I tried your way/And don't like what I see/And now I'm bored....."--Jose L. Duenas, Unloco


7/24/01--HEY YOUZE GUYZ!!! Guess who? Peek a boo? I'll crap on you!!!!!! HA HA HA HA HA....the madman is in.
Well, how's everyone's miserable lives? Mine is decent. Can't complain. Well, I quit ILX before the break, for all those who didn't see me. And if you didn't see me, WHY NOT?! Oh well, can't please everyone all the time, right?
So, what's new? Haven't gotten any new cds. Started a new job Monday, place called Price Investments. Telemarketing....AGAIN! Yes, I'm a loser, I know it, but hey, you gotta make a living. OH! Here's a good one.....we have a pet grasshopper.....well, we DID have one, til I beat the crap outta it!!!! It was stuck between the wall and our dishwasher, and he was quite the loud summabitch, but then his face appeared, and then my foot met his face. He didn't look too happy afterwards, and I don't really think he liked the 5 or 10 or god knows how many stomps on his noggin. Damn, I'm cruel!!!
I'm going to work on the page as much as possible. 7 MORE WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then, I get to come home, even though everyone seems to be MOVING!!!!
Well, can't think of nuthin else.....I'll come back when I have more stupid shyt ta talk bout. Now, some really great words (and these go out to you again Lindsey.....you're so popular!):

"But you're pushing me, Shoving me. Pushit on me."--Maynard James Keenan, Tool

Piece, luv, and chikin greece wit xtra lard! Me


6/27/01--HEY YOUZE GUYZ!!! How's it hangin? It's not too bad here. I really had fun coming back for the week, and thank you very much to all of you that showed up for me. I really appreciated it. Kristy, if you ever do read this, I'm SO sorry.
Anywayz, well, for everyone who doesn't know, the trip back here was worse than the trip there. Here's how it goes: My schedule was Waco to Dallas, Dallas to El Paso, and El Paso to Phoenix, right? NOOOOOO......I end up going Waco to Dallas to Abilene to El Paso to Las Cruces to Tucson to Phoenix!!!!! Like anyone at Greyhound could EVER get shit right!!!!!! GOD!!!!! Other than that, I lost my wallet, so I have no ID, and I was supposed to have a job interview today, but without ID, YA!!!!! Plus, on top of that, I WANNA BE HOME!!!!!!!
Well, let's think of other cool stuff. I got the new Static-X, Weezer, and Blink albums, and they all rock, of course. That Static album though, man, I'm saying, for now, better than the first. YEAH, I SAID IT!!!!!! New Staind still sucks......and Ojo is the SHIZNIT!!!!!!! Other than that, I haven't heard much else, and I'm chillin with those three albums. The new Tool is still the best of the year though, cause TOOL IS GOD!!!!!!! And I would like to say, to all those Tool posers out there that may read this, I HOPE YOU CHOKE!!!!!!! Just remember that.
Well, I have nothin else to say, so I'll take off, but I'll leave you all with one little reminder:

"I've got my hash pipe..."--Rivers Cuomo, Weezer

Piece, luv, chikin greece


5/21/01--Well, it's like, 12:11 AM, and I'm still up, chillin in the media center. I've been having a lot of sleep problems....can't get to sleep at nights. So, I've been sneaking out to here, just surfing.....tryin to get my eyes tired enough to shut for a while.
So, how's everyone? Well, I'm as me as I can possibly be. Hey, that rhymed...cool. Anywayz, so, what's new? AHHHHH.....JOSH HAS THE NEW TOOL ALBUM!!!!! People, this is HANDS-DOWN the best album of the year. I can't think of anyone who'll release anything better than this. This album is more than perfection, it's a musical experience that only Tool can make. Everyone, it's called "Lateralus", so go check it out. I really like it, but I'm also a Tool fanatic, so hey!!!!!!
The new Staind does suck, Scott.....get over it!!!!....LOL
Well, bills are caught up, and we're still working, so I guess that means that things are good. I've been talking to a few of my friends normally through my e-mail, so for those who haven't been talking to me (you know who you), what's up, you can't take five minutes to say hey to me!!!! LOL......j/k. I understand that everyone is having to grow up right now.....sucks, huh.....but I guess I can live with it. But, I am expecting a call from everyone on my birthday, oh yeah, like that's a big deal. Here's how big of a deal it is.....I just realized about 5 hours ago that I have 8 days til I turn 19!!!!!! Now, you would think that anyone would remember their birthday, and I do....May 29th, but I didn't realize that it's THIS MONTH, or 8 days from now. Now, how busy does that make me? VERY!
I should be home in June. I'm thinking about quitting ILX before the break hits, and I'll get another job lined up so that when I get back, I can start that one. If not, well, then I will continue to work at ILX and I won't see anyone until Sept. I would like to invite anyone willing enough to come to my graduation to show up. I know Mom and Dad are, but that's all I've heard. Unfortunately, my bros will have school, and I know Ricardo will have school. I know Kris is busy, and Lindsey might, but god only knows..........just pickin on y'all.
Other than that, not much.......and now, some great words from a great man (this one is for all the peepz I miss back home, and especially my little chica Lindsay.......last time I checked, this was our song)

"Someday/When my life has passed me by/I'll lay around and wonder why/You were always there for me"--Mark McGrath, Sugar Ray

Piece, luv, chikin greece!


5/6/01--Ok, I think today is the 6th, I'm not sure. I don't keep track anymore.....anywayz, HEY!!!! Well, so, how's life? Mine still sucks, but it's getting better. Well, we've gotten all but two past due bills taken care of, and those are Tom's, so.......we are getting out of the hole now, which just rules. We have our electricity back, so that's great. We have no phone, but that gets turned on Thurs (or earlier, depends). So, life's not COMPLETELY horrible.
Well, for those who don't know, I don't have a girlfriend now. We broke up. Frankly, no one cares, so I'll just leave it there.
What else? Oh, only one week and two days til the new Tool album, which is gonna RULE!!!! It better, because I've become very disappointed. I got the new Staind album from my friend's ftp site (for anyone that's curious and wants it without napster, e-mail me and I'll get you the addie), and I downloaded the album, ready for a sonic blast that only Staind can deliver, and what do I hear? BULLSHIT!!!!!!! I mean, what the hell, how is it that these great musicians can put out such a shitty album? I have only two words for all of you: Josh Abraham!!!! This is the man that produced the album. He also did "great classics" like Coal Chamber's "Chamber Music" and Orgy's "Vapor Transmissions". CRAP ALBUMS!!!!! I couldn't believe what I heard......I like maybe 3 songs on the new album, which shouldn't happen. So, no one should waste their money on that album, cause it's a bunch of crap.
Ok, I have a question for everyone. Now, I updated my stats page to read that I'm 19 and all, and I also included some of my new favorite eats. Now, while writing the Burger King part, I noticed something new. Someone, please tell me, why is it that they can put a f***ing dollar sign on a keyboard, and not put a f***ing cent sign on it??!?!?!?! I mean, come on, it only makes sense, right? God, the world today.
Well, that's about it......leave you with another quote:

"He's got a gold watch, she's got a silk dress, and healthy breasts that bounce on his Italian leather sofa!"--John McCrea, Cake

Well, I'm outies again.....til later. Piece luv chikin greece (yes mom, I purposely spell peace that way!) Me


4/26/01--Hey, yeah, I haven't written anything on here is a little over a month, so I guess I could say something, since life has been PURE HELL!!!! God, Phoenix is a bunch of dickheads.....excuse my French. Like anyone would actually read this anywayz......no one COMES HERE. I was saddened to hear a few weeks back, maybe less than that, that Lili Cross passed on. I know that she will be very much missed. I know that I had unresolved problems with her, and I feel my own guilt now. So, I'm hoping to visit her when I get there and have a talk.
We've been in Bill-land for the past while. We have so much debt, it isn't even funny. We are in the process of having Frank move out, and Triston maybe.....hopefully not. Long story, and I don't have time. Along with that, me and Tom have a new job giving away free vacations and such......telemarketing, except we don't sell anything.....just give away. Cool, huh? It's a job, so whah!
OK, I know everyone will care about this......Josh has a girlfriend!!!! WHOA, that's insane, you say. Yes, her name is Christina, and she's from El Paso. I'll give more info to whoever actually cares! LOL......
other than that, I can't think of much......Windows 2000 RULES, and Microsoft is a bunch of money hungry monkeys with no tails and five asses! SO, to sign me out, a few famous words from a great band:

"In the land of race car ya-yas; the land where you can't change lanes; where large, fuzzy dice still hang proudly like testicles from rear view mirrors."--John McCrea, Cake

Well, I'm outies. Piece, luv, chikin greece!!! Me


3/18/01--Ok, this is the beginning of a new page finally, like anyone cares. But anywayz, Phoenix is still suckin. I mean, ok, we have a great apt., my family came and visited, and on top of that, I have three job offers now, and I'm saying Phoenix sucks. Yes, and you know why? Because the drivers here are SO FUCKIN SLOW!!! Excuse my french.......let me explain.

See, the problem with this place is that people here don't understand that this is a big city, and everyone needs to be somewhere. Me and Tom usually take off at about 5:50 for school, since it normally takes us 10 minutes to get to school. So, we leave at 5:50 Thursday, and we're 20 minutes late to class.....yep. How does something like this happen, you ask? Well....after waiting for the slow people to get their foot on the gas pedal, we had to deal with a stop light almost every two streets within 16 streets, and those lasted about 3-4 minutes each. So why, in the middle of rush hour, does Phoenix all of a sudden slow down to 15 mph in a 35mph zone? Is it just a weird coincidence that there were no cops around.....I mean, this street is normally 50 or above, even though it is 35 mph.....no cops....any chance to speed, and everyone goes 15 mph. So, I realize now......Phoenix..........is a bunch of DUMBASSES!!!! MORONS!!!! IDIOTS!!!!!! GEEZ......... Other than that, we ate some food, drank some Crown Royal last night with some Black and Mild's, and kicked it "playalistic" as Black Man would say. When the family came down, Tom got kicked out of Tombstone. Amazingly enough, my family, I think, loved Tom and Black Ass. They seemed to take them in well, and Tom and Triston love mom and dad. They're like, "Man, you got some kick ass parents." I'm like, "I know." Other than that, not much. Well, my hand is falling asleep from making this page all day, so I'm gonna jet. Piece, Luv, and Chikin Greece!!! jakob187...(to be continued)
