Jake Jake Jake!

[ednbarby]

I know this has nothing to do with Jake but I love Macy's Day Parade Barb! That's one of my favorite Green Day's... do you have their International Superhits?

Yes, I do.  I listened to part of it on my way into work, as a matter of fact.  I usually do this sequence:  Basket Case, Brain Stew, Hitchin' A Ride, Minority, Warning, Macy's Day Parade.

As far as sheer audacity/beauty of lyrics go, Hitchin' a Ride contains probably the most quotable lines of any of their songs - I've used quite a few of them as signatures over the last several months.

Hitchin' a Ride

Hey mister, where you headed?
Are you in a hurry?
Need a lift to happy hour.
(He says "Oh, no.")
Do you brake for distilled spirits?
I need a break as well -
The well that inebriates the guilt.
1, 2. 1, 2, 3, 4.

Cold turkey's getting stale - tonight I'm eating crow.
Fermented salmonella poison oak, no.

There's a drought at the fountain of youth, and I'm dehydrated.
My tongue is swelling up, I say 1, 2. 1, 2, 3, 4.

Troubled times, you know I cannot lie.
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride.

That's almost the exact order I use when I listen to that CD! Great songs.

Just feeling a need for some happy! Jake.  I'm sure these have been posted before, but I was just sorting through my screen saver and am seeing a theme here:  All these are of Jake laughing - which are some of my favs.
Enjoy!

That smile is infectious, isn't it?!?

Thanks!

I just got a 2007 Jake G. calendar as a gift. It's got 12 recent, big, lovely, happy and smiling close-ups of Jake. I don't know quite where to place it yet, I'll have to figure that out ( as in RL I'm trying to pretend I am mostly over all of that), - but it makes me smile every time I see it. Wonderful and throughtful gift, that was.

Mikaela,

Why pretend?  Is this the calendar?

[Mikaela]

Yes, that's the one!

**guh**

Yep. I had seen that calendar for sale on Amazon.com.  As I already have the BBM calendar, I thought I might be overdoing it.  Noticed that Jake's calendar was USD 2.00 more then BBM calendar. Wonder why?  Don't tell anyone on the Heath thread, but there's no Heath Ledger calendar.     

BBM Amazon.com's supply from allposters.com has already sold out.  (Used and new options are available) They make wonderful gifts. THis happened with TLA as well. They ran out of calendars. Does everyone underestimate the selling power of anthing BBM?  TLA had sent me an e-mail saying there back in supply, but alas, I had already received one from Amazon.com.  A real collector, no doubt. 

I think I will get a 2008 Jake calendar. Yep, I think long term.  It might have pictures hopefully from RENDITION and ZODIAC.
