run run away, run run away

oh, the travel always gets me
get in the car and drive it all over me
philippa sent me a postcard!� how nice.� also, it's the second
postcard i've received all year, after katrin sent me one from new zealand.�
and both postcards were from down under, coincidentally!� how funny is
that.� ok i'm not sure if "down under" is supposed to refer to NZ
as well as Oz, but i like to think of both of them as down under.� also,
katrin and douglas sent me some drawings they made, which i am really impressed
with.� you don't even wanna know, really, how impressed i am when my
friends bust out some major creativity on my ass.� i totally get all proud
of them.� here's one of katrin's, and here's one of
douglas's.
bj�rk is going to play a
concert in oakland in october.� i think she'll have a full orchestra
backing her.� the tickets sold out via tickets.com
in one minute.� literally, one minute.� so my friend sarah and i came
up with a plan.� see, they sell stun guns in a lot of places.� in
those little camera shops in chinatown, for instance!� and of course, there
will be scalpers.� they're probably already scalping on ebay for huge
amounts of money, but there will probably still be a few outside the
concert.� what we basically need to do is, lure a scalper into an alleyway
and get him to show us the tickets, and then ZAP HIM!! and grab the
tickets.� and we'll steal his pants, just for the humiliation factor.�
just because, you know?� scalpers deserve that kind of crap anyway since
they're in the business of ripping people off, and making it hard to get tickets
the legal way.� also, we thought it would be funny to use a permanent black
marker to write our names all over the scalper. even if the guy tries to snitch on us, like, how could we possibly get in
trouble?� who are the cops gonna believe... well-dressed, attractive young
concert-goers that just happen to have a stun gun in their pocket (by then we'll
probably have chucked his pants into the sewer)... or some filthy,
lyin' no-count scalper?!� i'm thinkin' it's a pretty solid plan.� i
even wrote a term paper about bj�rk for one of my classes and got a B+
on it... so bj�rk would totally back us up on this, i'm sure.
