CAN I JUST SAY!!!!!!!!!! SUPERTROOPERS AND TRAILER PARK BOYS SHOULD DO A MOVIE TOGETHER!!! LIKE SUPERTROOPERS MEET TRAILER PARK BOYS!!!!!!!! THAT WOULD BE THE FUNNIEST MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm reading this book about punk and in one part Lou Reed's wife Sylvia describes how her relationship with Lou developed. I think it's pretty much a perfect blueprint for anyone who wants to pick up awesome girls. Behold...

HOW TO SEDUCE A LADY (the Lou Reed method)

1. Argue with her. Do this the very first time you meet her. If she says something stupid, gets too mad, or gives in easily move on.

2. Bond. In the book there's an indefinite period in which Lou and Sylvia just hung out and slept with each other casually. Sylvia also slept with a lot of other guys to distract her from her infatuation with Lou. So if your girl turns into a slut that could be a good thing, stay the course.

3. Stand her up. Just flake on a date – not something where she’ll be left alone, a date to a party or something. If she gets pissed and tells you off you know she won’t take any bullshit, which is good. If she doesn’t say anything or just forgives you too easily that means that she’ll let you walk all over her which won't be any fun at all after a few months.

4. Sweep her off her feet. Get forgiveness for standing her up with some grandiose gesture. Like invite her to take a trip somewhere awesome. After ditching Sylvia one night and having her tell him off, Lou saw her the next day and was like, "You wanna go to Montreal?" Bam.


In closing, I am the person who posts here other than Trevor. Check the archives if you don't believe.

I think we're back!

Life changes coming along well. Lots of thinking time.

Tonight I saw someone get put in a bag and get dragged around for a while. Voluntarily. He barely even spilt his beer.

I used to think that I needed beer to have fun. now I'm realizing all I need is for other people to have beer.

Maybe I'll keep posting on here for the duration of my month of clean living. So far so good. Day one down.

Time to settle down. Make a new life, something that involves fewer unnoticed sunrises.

Patterns have become clear, but more a gradual unweaving than a tapestry. Turns out you can't become anything, you can only be more and more like you are. A sort of average of what you've been for the past little while.

If you want to be something different, you just have to be that thing and then after a while it won't be different anymore.

Lessons learned. Careful who you trust. Got it.

Time to start being something good.

Well that was a lot harder than I thought.

I just played my first WSOP freeroll qualifier which is a 4000 person free-entry tournament where the winners get a free seat at the WSOP Satellite (which usually costs $215).

I busted out in 125th. But considering that there were 4000 entrants, that's not too bad. The big turn in my fortunes: when I raised all-in with two kings and got beaten by pocket aces. BAH!

I did a lot better than I expected, though. 125th puts me in the 96th percentile! Wicked!
