I’ve been into Thomas Paine’s solo work recently. He pretty much influenced the whole scene.

Conservatism and the wii
- JJ: Nintendo is the conservative's console of choice. every innovation improves without disorienting, and sticks to tried and true stories and characters while maintaining playability for all ages and skill levels.
- JJ: (I just saw the trailer for the new mario on Wii)
- JD: that probably also explains why it's so BORING and only two games with each console are actually worth playing
- JD: BOO YAA SNAP ATTACK ZING YO FACE OFF
- JJ: u r such a g4m3r.
- JJ: you can borrow bite the hand that feeds you now if you wanna
- JD: is that a new game for ps3?
- JJ: yeah it's great, you're a mutant droid druid vampire who is trying to kill characters from the bible. it's a meta-1st person shooter. your job is to second guess the moves of your character.
Religious/Spiritual
Does anyone ever say “I’m very religious, but not very spiritual”?
Probably not in those words, since people generally think of “religion” as encompassing the beliefs and practices of “institutionalized” religions, but I think there are definitely people who fit the description.
On the one hand, people who say they are “spiritual, but not very religious” are often those who hold transcendent/otherworldly beliefs (and maybe practices) apart from the structure of institutionalized religion. On the other hand, there are many who consider themselves “social” Christians/Jews/etc., who practice religion (holiday rituals/ceremonies), but are nonbelievers. In fact, the modern anthropological scholarship on religion focuses much more on the practices of religious communities (and individuals) than the subjective — or “functional” — aspects of personal belief.
So, someone who is very into those social/community features of religious practice (or just love the wine) may just be “very religious, but not very spiritual.”

tour
wow, the past few weeks have been a whirl wind.
Im going to start posting pictures soon. So far the most amazing things have been our Tucson arizona show, driving down the Oregon coast on the 101 and seeing a whale! Also eating amazing seafood and Playing our first sold out show ever in Denver was incredible. Its so strange and amazing playing in front of a huge crowd. Portugal the man was very nice to us as well. I am in iowa right now. Karen went home yesterday morning before we headed to kansas city. I miss her tons. Now we have Ben with us and its pretty awesome, cause we love playing with him. Lots of fun ahead. It was a bit lonely out west though, so its great to be in famililar territory.
Best show ever next Sunday @ Piano’s in NYC!
