Weekend Away
If you need to reach us… well… drive to Arkansas, I guess. I don't think there's any other way.
We'll be back Sunday night.

So I broke down and bought Mike Doughty's new album, "Haughty Melodic":http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?tag=revjimnet-20&creative=9325&camp=1789&link_code=ur2&path=tg/detail/-/B00080EV7A/ref=pd_sim_music_5?v=glance%26s=music, from Amazon because it lets me hear the album now, despite the fact that it's not released yet.
It's phenomenal! It's everything that I ever felt was amazing about Soul Coughing, with it's own fresh edge and meaning. The music is incredible. Mike's percussive [...]

I've got a file I keep on my computer with snippets of things that I'd like to write here but haven't had the time to flesh out. That file is getting quite large. So, I pushed a bunch of the stuff from that file that was just links witha snippet of commentary into "Del.icio.us":http://del.icio.us/revjim/. You [...]

As promised (elsewhere), here's Jim Reverend's Crush of the Week.
Wait a minute. Crush of the week? That's too girly. How about… Patron Saint of the week? Yeah. That's much better.
This week's Patron Saint is "Mike Doughty":http://www.mikedoughty.com/, of "Soul Coughing":http://www.scug.net/ fame.
His "blog":http://www.mikedoughty.com/blog/ is a nice mix of documentary style photography and personal observations. It's just candid [...]

The only weekends that are left that Jess and I can make it to are 05/07, 05/14. and 05/21. If you're planning on going this year, and would like to go with [...]

I'd like to give a special thanks to all of you who helped with my "ad placement":http://revjim.net/item/10312/ a week or so ago. Not counting the day I mentioned it (which represented a ~14X increase in my daily earning) the new placement managed to almost double my revenue. Thanks again for your help.
If you can [...]

My fingers are covered in the sticky sweet of the orange I just had for breakfast. I'm tired, my legs hurt, my arms hurt, my cheeks are burnt and I couldn't be happier.
I spent Friday night doing my best at drinking an entire bottle 1.75L bottle of JD. I had help from two other people [...]

Poker night tonight at our place. These people will be there: Stacey (+2), Alan, Laura, Miki, Patrick, John, Jess, Myself.
What a terrific night it will be. That's 10 people, but not all will play. Hell, even if *no one* plays it's going to be a good time. Generally, when we have poker nights or parties, [...]
