I knew I had to watch out for cars when I learned how to bicycle, but unstoppable cans?

A Henrico County man riding a bicycle died early this morning after being hit by a can that did not stop.

Holy crap. Explain that one to St. Peter.

...that I really like Weezer - I always have since I was at Greg Baughman's house circa 1995 and heard 'The World Has Turned and Left Me here" for the first time. I remember saying "Who is that?" and I was hooked ever since.

I went out and bought the Blue Album, only to lose it in a car accident a couple of years ago. I still have the songs on my computer but I need to buy it again.

I've been stymied three times when I could have seen them. The first time was when they gave a small exclusive show at HFStival in 2001 instead of playing the main stage. The second time was when me and a couple buddies at OU had tickets to see them, Jimmy Eat World, and Tenacious D in Fort Worth. Unfortunately, an ice storm hit between Norman and Fort Worth that night and we couldn't go. The third time was when they were playing in Wichita May 2002 - yet I couldn't get anyone to go with me because of exams.

They're the one band that I can listen to no matter what mood or situation I'm in. Right now I'm in a bit of a funk due to some frustration at church combined with a bit of stress at work, so instead of dealing with those problems I'm listening to some Weezer and writing this blog entry. :)
