you know what i hate. terrorists. just ask jon sublet for one of his old kcsb radio shows. he can tell you all about the terrorist, terrorist, terrorist, terrorist. t-e-r-r-o-r-ists! they slow things down at the airport these days. still no excuse for not finding a computer to post on the weekend, but it was busy. leave the office at 3:00 on friday and take the a-c-e train out to the air train. 7 bucks in all. wait in line. catch the vs004, out at 6:45p, into heathrow at 6:35a. picadilly line into the city, with a quick one stop on the northern to get to the st. giles hotel--it is no beauty, but it has a decent locale. quick nap. quick jog at the ymca below the 'telly. walk to tottenham court road--the tottenham hot spurs are the football team of choice for your favorite canadian, steve nash, fyi. side note, steve played a few practices with the red bulls here in new york with former us world cup coach bruce arena. 'i think he could probably play in this league. obviously, he's a superbly conditioned athlete," arena said. "the way you watch him play in the nba, he's a point guard that probably plays over 40 minutes a game and you see his fitness level is good on the soccer field as well.' tangent done. i walk over tottenham to oxford. head down oxford. shop shop shop. even though the 1.7 to 1 exchange rate is a killer. (had all huf gear from the city, oddly, but talk to my man wes and he can tell you where to go around london town), (pretty great shoe and t-shirt selection), over to niketown (trust me, things fit differently). ended up the day at . next day, head to camden lock, eat cheap food, for once, and then to brixton. smells like weed but cheap kronenbergs at over 5% alcohol content are awesome. catch the northern back to the picadilly to heathrow. out at 20:30, back to newark by 23:10. nj transit home, with a bag a bit heavier than when i left. oh yeah, forgot. stopped at . i picked up a pro fit and the old ep. . if you try and get it here, it is an import and costs over 50 bones. they had it there for 10 pounds. it is a few years old, and it seems that they have grown into their electro-rock-sensitive style. the lead singer, cris james is on the new shadow set to come out in september. no shadow tracks, here, but i got em if you want em. it, i say. limewire is old news. unless you are just stocking up the spank bank.
