So I stumbled upon (I just spelled that word like “apon”… wow.) a great site called “LaLa”. On it you can stream any album once for free and even upload your own music. It’s a great place to find new tunes. I recommend you check it out!
Here’s a playlist of chill music I made up.
I am now a partner in the website cookboooktree.com. This website allows you to upload your recipes and create online cookbooks using these and recipes added by other members of the community. You can even export them in pdf form or print them out! Some people just use it as a secure place to store their family recipes. Many changes should be coming soon, but for now, check out the site and sign up!
I don’t like to be dirty. I like showers. I’m pretty fond of electricity. I am often chained to devices with brightly lit screens. I’m trying to break this cycle. (not that I won’t still like showers… but that I won’t NEED them)
I went up to Macomb two weekends and I mountainbiked with my friend Andrew(and am going again this weekend). It was really friggin awesome. The course is just over a foot wide and full of challenging obstacles. I didn’t think to bring a helmet… a decision I regretted as I was flying over my handlebars and my chest slammed into a nearby tree. I had a wicked headache for the rest of the ride but it felt good (in a weird way) to get my first big wipeout out of the way.
Last I camped Friday through Sunday at Meramec River with eight people for my friend Kim’s b-day. Last time I camped was probably circa 2002, but I think something about alcohol makes the whole situation more tolerable. Kayaking there was an absolute blast! I jumped from trees, cliffs, did “kayak surf fighting”, got applauded when I did a perfect backflip from the ropeswing, and did front flips from the raft slip-n-slide (you run from the shore, slide on the underside of the raft, and four guys jerk the end of the raft upward when you get to the end).
Also, I did something I hadn’t done this whole millenia. I went fishing. I had ALOT of trouble with my pole (which came with no instructions) and I somehow had line unraveling from three spots. But I worked out the kinks and caught a bluegill. Awesome.
Oh, and a useless fact. I was born on a Friday. http://scphillips.com/units/dayform.html
What ever happened to the days when Marilyn Manson was considered the spawn of Satan? And him and the poorly rendered red pixels in Doom were responsible for two boys shooting up a high school.
Sigh… those were the days. Well, no I don’t mean it like THAT. All I’m saying is that in the last 10 years the amount of sexuality and ultraviolence projected into our heads (and the children think of the children people lol) has increased substantially. Mortal Kombat (whose success can only be attributed to the use of a ‘K’ in the word ‘combat’… Limp Bizkit anyone?) looks absolutely tame compared to the blood sprayed about in modern games (check out Manhunt). Honestly most of today’s M-rated games would have been banned if they came out in 1993 and maybe some T-rated ones.
I don’t watch CSI or any of those other gory TV shows. However, I like horror movies and I’ve seen 4 of 5 saw movies. I go to the movie theater and watch TV for much different purposes. If I’m going to see a movie like “Drag Me to Hell” I’m going in for the purpose of seeing some spooky specters and am mentally prepared for this. But I am more of a casual TV viewer and like to watch TV to relax. I want to watch mindless syndicated sitcoms and laugh at their recycled jokes. So it just kills my whole vibe when I’m flipping channels and come across some pale dead woman lying on a table, mouth agape, with cuts and strangulation marks (probably raped at some point). I want to see good clean fun like The Andy Griffith Show and Leave it to Beaver come back to primetime. Well, LITB probably needs a name change (on account of the slang these days) and the whole “subservient wife” in this nuclear family is no longer politically correct… which is sure to provide some laughs (this is evidenced by Mad TV’s “Leave it to Blink-182” sketch).
Back to my favorite M&M named celebrity(besides Marilyn Monroe, Mickey Mouse, and anyone else with an M&M name). Marilyn Manson has a new song called “Pretty Like a Swastika”… ok this guy is just trying too hard now. I assume he’s talking about the symbol the Nazi’s adopted from the Aryan’s and not any of the similar symbols used throughout the world prior to receiving the “red band treatment”. See? That’s why as parents you should hug your little boys & girls more. Because if you don’t, when they grow up… they are going to wear creepy contact lenses.
Well, this concludes another unfocused blog. Thanks for sticking with me person who is reading this sentence.
Sorry to my faithful reader(s). I have put off posting to this blog for far too long. It seems after staring at a computer screen (actually 2 of them) for 8 hours a day… I never quite feel like booting up my old laptop when I get home.
I promise you this… I WILL have another post this month. And it’ll be decent.
Maybe two posts, but now you’d just be getting greedy.
I know I’m interesting, and I know the people want more. But there’s just not enough of my time to go around.
I am working on a few websites right now (when I say working, I mean putting off) and I will let you know what they are and what there purpose is upon completion.
I don’t make a post in two months… and I come back with this POS self serving stuff. Oh, nevermind… that’s what the rest of my posts are as well. My bad.
I last performed a stand-up comedy routine in 2004. It went very well in my opinion. However, besides playing guitar and joking around I haven’t ventured into this area since. I saw there was a contest for comics. So I signed up. I think I have some solid material… however I really really need to finalize my routine. It’ll be an experience : ) and if I win I get $250 and an opening slot for another show.
If anyone is interesting in attending, here is the info:
March
Fri. 6th – Comedy Night Doors Open at 8pm – Show Starts at 9:30pm
Call for reservations 217-224-4102
Fri. 6th – Best Comic Stand – 6 Local Amateur Comics.
2 will move on to the finals.
Sebastian the limbless kitty
Po' widdow kudduh
This kitten looks absolutely miserable and kind of seems like it wants to die. However, my first reaction was to laugh (and my second reaction was to laugh some more).
I kind of feel bad that I’m taking pleasure in the misery of a helpless little creature. I hope he comes to terms with his affliction and realizes that there’s so much to live for! Hmmm, well probably not… But he’s far cuter with no appendages than I’d ever be.
Evidently I’m no longer the only Luke Westberg in the world (and haven’t been for about 17 years). Well I hope he tries to sign up for a website and sees that lukewestberg.com is taken. Yeah, go ahead and take the .net address… that’s what you get for being #2 sucka!
"Woo... I made a game winning touchdown!" What a d-bag.
Ehh… I’m just kidding brother. Awesome name. And I’m not just saying that cuz you could probably beat me up ; )
This information is taken directly from wikipedia. I was casually browsing and came upon the entry for my name. I found the last entry particularly amusing. I’ve tried to post things on wikipedia and everything got deleted for one reason or another, so I’m pretty surprised this slipped past.

Amuses me.
