I wouldn't know the answer either. I've never gotten my hands on an Insect Surfer's album. I'm hoping to buy when this summer when I am down there. |

Yes we do need to talk about her. 22 year old female. Send her my way. I like a good deal of Jack Johnson's stuff, and I only hate Dave Matthews the person... and most of his music. I don't hate the fans. |

That I would have. Or maybe I would have hit on the 22 year old girl. I'm 23 so I'm sure she would be unable to resist me. "Hey, I'm in a band" Works everytime. |

everyone's hitting on the 22 yr. old. she's cute. her brother's in a band so that might not work. and her dad hates surf music because it's too simple. he's been playing jazz and rock for over 40 years. she's been brainwashed.. |

at least the girl that asked was interested and obviously liked what she was hearing. —Last edited: Jul 18, 2007 17:26:18 |

Surf music too simple? We'll get him a Slacktone or 'Verb CD. Although I do respect any sort of Jazz that isn't smooth jazz. Carol, I'm going to marry the 22 year old. I will convert her and make her realize her brothers band is shit compared to mine. For I am a guitar god... in my bedroom. And I'm sure my mom would agree. |

All I've done for the past two days is sit around and think. I tend to attempt to become humorous when this happens. I'm so bored. |

If the 22 year old girl had actually taken a genuine interest in the music that was playing, then I would have been doing some seriously shameless macking. But if she's uninterested in surf, what more personality could I possibly have to share in common? |

Perhaps a deep love of Shakespeare? I sent your CD out by the way. Thanks. |

Her dad doesn't like surf either? This only reaffirms why I (and I suggest you, Jake) would best lay off: She's got bad genes. Going out with a girl like that would only reduce one's Darwinian fitness, love of Shakespeare or no. And thank you Jake for the CD. |

This is somewhat sexist but I'm always nice to the cute(lady) customers at work. There are mean ones that no longer get preferential treatment, but a cute girl starts out with the faster service versus some slutty girl or some date rapist guy who has to earn it. I work at a University by the way. Its better to get a smile from a cute girl than get a "thank bro" from a guy. Fact. |
