LadBoyTick:        however, if it was possible to achieve more wretched hell this weekend, it was certainly achieved.
SpeedB220:        lol
LadBoyTick:        my uncle was attempting to help me jump the car, so he was pushing it out of the parking lot and the door caught on some landscaping crap and bent it backward.
LadBoyTick:        so now i can no longer enter the driver’s side door and there’s a dent in it.
SpeedB220:        gosh
LadBoyTick:        after that, i wanted to die, but then erik didn’t get his paycheck after working for three weeks so now we can’t pay our utilities tomorrow, which makes me want to live again…
LadBoyTick:        because i always wondered what it would be like to live without electricity, heat, or water.

For those of you who don’t subscribe to the , I thought I would let you in on a little contest… If you want a Cardcan t-shirt size small that fits like a medium(!), send us an e-mail telling us what your favorite Cardboard Canary song is, and why. A visit to the Lyrics section may be a good choice… The winner will be chosen by the whole band at the end of December. Hopefully this will keep you occupied whilest we finish recording the EP! Also, there’s shows this Tuesday (in Ames) and Saturday (Dallas Center) so come to those you filthy peasants!

STORY: There once were three tenants who lived in an apartment in Ames, named Blake, Erik and Justin. Erik paid his rent for December. Blake couldn’t pay his rent because of a delay in receiving paychecks at work, so he went to talk to the landlord. The landlord said he could overwrite a check and he would cash it next Wednesday. Justin had enough money to pay rent until he went to the bank and found out he was being charged $5 a day for the last two weeks for having a negative amount in his account. His cash was then zapped to $4, so he overwrote a check also. So now Justin and Blake must find a couple hundred dollars by Wednesday, or get kicked out of their apartment and have horrible credit. What will our heroes do now?

LadBoyTick:        i’m going out to sell my body tomorrow andrew
SpeedB220:        you could

LadBoyTick:        so we’re screwed beyond belief
Hi Im Kate L:        ouch
Hi Im Kate L:        What are you guys going to do?
LadBoyTick:        well, i imagine they won’t kick us out right away…they’ll probably fine us until they realize we can’t pay…

Meanwhile…

HitlerSux182:        i made up a new band name
HitlerSux182:        we’re changing our name to this, regardless of its popularity…

What the snatch?
What the sketch?
What the klreijhe?
What the sex?
What the flames?

PHRASE MOST OFTEN USED WHILE IN UTAH:
What the mormon?

COOLEST GIRL:
Savanna

…okay, that last one was cheesy, but I had to say it.
