'..I even wrote scenes where I reemerged boldly - bearded, alive with eskimos eyes...'

I live in Chicago but I love the Pacific Northwest. I worked/lived in Alaska the summer of 2008 and you can find many pictures from my journey there if you start at the beginning of this blog. I'm returning for the rest of the summer of 2009. I enjoy music, cycling, photography and being slightly boy crazy. especially ones that look like bike messengers. My name is Jason but I go by many names. Say 'hi' at skylitup at gmail dot com

most definitely my new fav song from R. Kelly’s new one.    ‘Pregnant’.

“I ain’t seen nothing like her around here in a while,
And if I had a girl she’d be the one to bear my child,
Telling myself I’m a playa so I keep tryna shake it off,
But I keep on seeing this big old house with a picket fence and a dog, “

Futureheads “Hounds of Love -  album version

Hound of Love  - covered by Futureheads from their debut album.  I really like the energy of the version of this song on their album but I have much respect for this acoustic (unplugged - hating saying that now) live performance

I got an email this morning about a limited addition t-shirt for Hot Chip by Nick Relph and I clicked on link immediately and it’s already been snatched up.  Not Fair Europe.    The only hope for this fusion of R. Kelly, Devo and Hot Chip are the words “check for reprint soon” .      (click on image for link to shirt, just don’t take mine)

new Peaches video for “Trick or Treat”.  It ends in an orgy.. would you expect anything less?

I’m not even sure how to label this music:  art noise, performance art, post-something.  All I know is that even as gay as I turned out,  crazy chicks are HOT.  I’m not sure if I like this or not, but I think I do. Band is called ‘Dutchess Says’

still haven’t named her yet but i’m leaning toward “Thrace” and if she had a pedigree the long name would be “Kara Thrace and her Special Destiny”.   This gives me a lot of options of what to call her.  ’Thrace’,  ’Kara Thrace’ or ‘Starbuck’  when she’s just being a bad ass or being bad.

yesterday, on World AIDS day, I reflected on too many people I lost to AIDS.  Truth be told I remember them a lot of days but try and think about the good days most.
