Dudes Gone Wild: Ghana Edition November 9, 2007
Let’s face it: America is overweight. Actually, overweight is an understatement… We’re fat as shit. Most people do have good intentions and want to lose the weight, but they’re not ready to commit to any type of diet or consistent workout regime. Thats why there are so many “weight loss pills” available, they cater to the laziness (fear?) in all of us, and to those individuals that are dumb enough to believe that you can lose weight just by taking a pill without making any changes to your lifestyle. Err… Yeah, anyway, there is a new miracle cure, and it works. Lose weight today with the miracle beer diet!
For the smart urban baby… BulletProofBaby.net’s baby stroller is “the ultimate in style, comfort and extreme combat protection.” It’s 100% bulletproof (as you may have guessed) and can even stop armor piercing rounds. Check out the video on the website… Wow. While I’d tend to doubt the legitimacy of that video, I suppose if it were real I wouldn’t be all that surprised. Stranger things have happened.
So now Demonoid is down too. This is the second time that this has happened in the past six weeks or so. It’s not really a big deal to me (as I’ve been pretty busy lately so I haven’t been downloading much) but I still don’t really understand how these sites are shut down if they aren’t hosting any infringing content. Anyway, the site should be back up eventually, and you can read more here. In the meantime, SumoTorrent is a good alternative, even though it’s a public tracker.
We leave for Ghana on Sunday… Our flight leaves JFK Airport at 3. So I’m heading to my friends house tomorrow afternoon and her dad is taking us to New York on Sunday morning. My computer is about to get the longest rest that it’s ever had.
When it was decided that I was definitely going to Ghana, my dad put me in touch with someone who had done an internship at the company he worked for. This guy was about the same age as me, and grew up in Togo, which is right next to Ghana. He graduated from Temple and now lives in the Philly area. This guy invited Cortney and I over to his place for an ethnic dinner and to tell us about his country and all that. So we ended up doing that on Tuesday night, and it was much cooler than I expected. I thought it would be awkward and very serious, but the guy was very easy to understand and he definitely had a good sense of humor about the whole thing. Two of his friends were there as well, and they all told us about what to expect and sort of put our minds at ease about certain things we were worrying about. I’m definitely glad I did it, and after I left there I was more excited to leave than ever.
When you talk about a month, it sounds like a long time, but I know that this month is going to fly by. Before I know it, I’ll be back here in the same routine, going to job interviews and etc. I went to a sports doctor yesterday and they did x-rays of my knees and he said I shouldn’t run for 4 weeks, so by the time I get back here I’ll be good to run again. Not that I expect anyone else to care about that, but I’m actually kind of excited for it. Anyway… Check back in about a month to hear about my trip and hopefully I’ll start posting regularly again… That is, if I’m not cooked and eaten by a tribe or something equally ridiculous. In the meantime, have a great Veterans Day, Armistice Day (!?), Thanksgiving, and whatever the hell else I’ll be “missing” while I’m gone. Between the Buried and Me. PAYCE.

I’m spending a college semester in Copenhagen, Denmark. Pretty cold here in Scandinavia, but I’m pretty sure you’ll wish it was cold in Ghanna. For me, it was a huge shock since I’m from Los Angeles just to be in Denmark so I can only imagine what you’re gonna go through.

Since we won’t see some music for a while… DONT SPAM/FLOOD the server. None of this was approved by John. He’s in Ghana, what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.

Glad to see some activity on here while I’m gone. In an internet cafe right now in Hohoe, which is about 20 min from the village that the orphanage we’re staying at is located. It is so insanely slow here though that even just to send a few emails is a big task, reminds me of the 14.4 dialup days of AOL. I made it this far without getting sick so I’m almost at the halfway point – Ill be home soon enough to post all about it though… woot

Good luck, beware of the Black Mamba and don’t forget you can use elephant turds as a source of water!

I’m an idiot/triple poster… thats Venetian Snares, not squares. Check em out if your into drum n bass. Tera Melos is an amazing instrumental band. Hella will blow your mind. They used to be a two piece band but this is their first CD with a bassist and singer. Zach Hill is their drummer, YouTube him to see how insane this guy is. He also drums for Team Sleep (Yes the one with Chino from Deftones)

Really great having friends in Palm Springs, because after the acts are done at Coachella, you can go back and relax.
