You know… for the longest time I loved the saying, “A Penny For Your Thoughts…” and since it is 4 a.m. and am lacking the ability to sleep, I’ve decided to share some of my thoughts with you…



This is Aaron from mewithoutYou… I met him, and I must say, he is one of those people that when you feel down, just the smile on his face will cheer you up… a blessed man you are Aaron



This is Element 101… if you notice the guy with the maroon shirt and hat on, this is Sal Ciaravino aka the most gorgeous looking man I have ever seen. First show I went to was in East Stroudsburg to cheer on my buddy Seth W. and me and my friend Marissa stumbled upon seeing them as well. And the greatest part was sometime during the show, just after they played, Sal came over to a table me and Marissa were sitting at, and as quiet as a mouse, he challenged us to some extreme thumb war. I of course lost in a minute or two *I remember it was my right hand*, and Marissa gave him some competition, lasting a good 2 minutes. In the end we lost, but I remember we swore we would never wash those hands after we finished thumb wrestling him. Well later that night I had to get the stamp off my hand so I washed it off by accident. Oh well, the memory still lives on. Hmm… I gotta find the lyrics to “In my heart and on my mind”, a fave song of mine!! That makes 2 cents so far



For all those who don’t know who they are, this is Squad-Five O. This was also one of my favorite shows… I saw them in Lebanon at this real shibby place called Cafe Berach. Well they were playing there that night with Norma Jean but at the time were called Luti-Kriss and I think it was twothirtyeight as well… none the less it was so crowded in there, me and Lydia were in front and getting squished, it got to the point that some people got on stage *now mind it wasn’t a big stage, but none the less , I was less than 5 feet away form them!!!*And I was right there, in front of them… it was so great!!! I also got punched in the ear that night, but it didn’t phase me since I got to talking to Adam and Jeff…. great stuff and I must say, they put on some great, GREAT shows!!


 Insert Crutch Image Here W/ Imagination


Another immensely cool band, Crutch, I saw them not to long ago… they were upclose as well and man their guitars…. they are just the greatest, plus I got to talk just a little with Travis, the drummer. He is such a nice guy, plus he and his wife were expecting a little one!! I hope the family is doing great!!


And so I’ve given you all a couple pennies of my thoughts… and now I’m wiped, so until tomorrow Xanganites =)
