I had to pay a $50 tresspassing ticket the other day for climbing into a closed NYC public park playground. It was seriously the dumbest ticket I’ve ever received and the cops totally had no sympathy for the fact that all I wanted to do was get a better view of something. Brandon and Julien were with me as well, and they were both just as lucky to get caught with me.
Anyway, if I was a real prick, I could have disputed the ticket by saying that the officer wrote my middle initial where my sex should have been and that in reality K is just not a gender. I know tickets like this have to be exact down to the periods so it probably would have gotten me out of losing $50 to the city, but I paid it anyway. My concious is too powerful to fight.

The World Trade Center Memorial Foundation has launched a national ad campaign with TBWA\Chiat\Day to raise funding for the building of the WTC memorial and memorial museum in New York.

By asking the public “Where were you when it happened?” this phase of the campaign highlights September 11th, 2001 as a seminal moment in everyone’s lives that should be remembered by building a lasting Memorial and Museum. The campaign theme calls upon the public to “think back, move forward” and in doing so, to help build the Memorial.

Watch the provocative television advertisements here (you can also listen to the radio spots and download the print advertisements as well). I really love their print ads for some reason. I used to have one in the phone booth right outside my building…I should have taken it. Now it’s gone. Dang it.
CBS has more on the new ads.

I was seriously wondering why Paris Hilton’s second single, Turn It Up, was out on the radio the other day so soon after her first single, Stars Are Blind, was released. It turns out that when an album isn’t doing so hot in sales, the record company will push a second single in order to attempt to generate new interest in the music. Unfortunately for Paris, the move didn’t work and her album sales numbers are embarrassing. It turns out also that people are turned off that she won’t have a tour and that she can’t sing. Are people retareded or something??!!

When I change my phone plan in about a month and a half and get a chance to pick a new phone, I wonder if the Samsung SGH-D900 will be available [and possibly free]. I can dream, right?

I went into a J.Crew randomly the other day and didn’t do anything in there except try on the vintage broken-in fleece hooded sweatshirt and then jet out of there. I was in like a cat, and out like a bee. Ok, I don’t really know how to use that phrase at all. I was just in and out quick. That’s all.

I am seriously having so much fun searching for stupid stuff with TagFetch, a new type of search site that displays results from “the web’s best sources”. I really love how the results are displayed. Go fetch something.

I’m looking into a new WordPress theme for Doobybrain.com. If I do implement a new one, I think I’ll base it off of one of these minimal themes. The minimal themes are always easy to work with because I don’t understand a lot of the code (but I do understand some of it).

Pork rinds, alcohol, beef jerky, sour cream, coconut, and chocolate bars all have this in common: everybody thinks they’re bad for you, but they’re actually good for you. Who would’ve thought such “bad” things were so “good” (I say “good” because if I said “good” without the quotation marks, somebody out there would just go ahead and eat one of these things the rest of their life — that would be bad).

I have another dentist appointment today! I hope they put a camera in my mouth again!!! :D
