Notre Dame Weekend

Current Song: none This weekend was a lot of fun! Em’s brother had a party at his old house on Charles Street. I can’t get into the specifics because I’m pressed for time. But all I gotta say is: Cabin Party 3 Pictures UP, New Canada Pictures UP, and finally, Charles Street Pictures UP! I spent a good amount of time getting all the new pics up so go enjoy them here. I’ll be back later otherwise.

Earth Viewer 3D NVIDIA

Current Song: 2 Pac Feat. K-Ci & Jo Jo – “Thug N Me” This is seriously the coolest program I’ve ever seen. The program fuses high-resolution satellite and aerial imagery, elevation data, GPS coordinates, and overlay information about cities and businesses to deliver a streaming, 3D map of the entire globe. You can get street level mapping off the entire United States and home into your own house. The satelite renders pictures up to 1Km above earth in the US (which means I can vividly see Ryan’s red Jeep Cherokee parked in his driveway). This program is off the hook. It’s incredibly expensive if you want to buy it though. 80 bucks a year expensive that is. I’m on the free 30 day trial right now and will probably uninstall it when I’m done. You can also have the map display, restaurants, banks, volcanos, amusement parks, schools, just about anything, it really is amazing. Below I’ve got some pics for you.
From Left to Right: 1) This is what the opening screen of the program looks like. 2) I’ve typed in my home address and it starts to fly inward to its location (This was taken while the zoom is about North Eastern US). 3)About Oakland County (from Auburn Road to Big Beaver and Rochester to Van Dyke). 4) My street and house. Notice the red arrow on the map, that is pointing to my house, the satelite isn’t perfect but it gets really close. 5.) Anther view of my house from a different angle. 6) A picture of Ryan’s house and his Jeep.
 


How About Some Idiot Boyfriend for All of You?

Current Song: Ja Rule – “Red Light” So I heard this new Jimmy Fallon song called “Idiot Boyfriend” today, and frankly it reminded me a lot of Mark. So I (with the help of Erika) decided it would be humerous to come up with our own version of “Idiot Boyfriend” and call it “Idiot Marko.” So Mark, this ones for you bud:   

Idiot Marko
By: Robert A. Nalette III & Erika Leigh Ethier
Mark knows what you want, and Mark knows what you need
But he’s goin’ screw it up, yeah
Cause he’s an idiot, and he’s your boyfriend, yes he is 

He’s goin’ take you out, and leave his wallet at home
Then he’ll use your cell phone, baby
Long distance, and he’s your boyfriend
Baby I know he’s a man who’s made a lot of mistakes
He’s still got some learning to do
He made out with Bridgett the other day, and
her best friend Katie too
Yeah Yeah

And he knows what you want, and he knows what you need
But he’s goin’ screw it up, yeah
Cause he’s an idiot, and he’s your boyfriend, yes he is

And he ain’t gonna get you a gift, unless he gets an invite to your party too
Don’t expect anything big or anything at all
And he’s your idiot boyfriend

Goin’ get YOU real drunk
And get you in his bed by four o’clock in the morning
Wake you up and kick you out
Cause he’s your idiot boyfriend

Pick up the phone, come on
I like you a lot
Lets get in my dad’s Taurus
And we’ll go over to my house, my crib, my pad
We’ll sneak into the back yard
Then we’ll have the patio and tiki torches all to ourselves, yeah
We’ll put on some great MP3’s I burned
How bout like, something like “Mark Mix Volume 5″
Ooooo
Ahhhhhh

I can turn my boom box up, and make the bass
Vibrate the patio furniture all around the porch!
Yeah!

Hey baby you like fine cooking? Cause baby so do I
Hope you got your dad’s credit card with you or baby, we ain’t gonna dine
Check it out
Yeah!

LOL, There you go, I hope you like our callaboration!

Eminem Can Suck My Ballz

Current Song: Craig David – “Walking Away” Before I completly blow up at The Palace of Auburn Hills and Eminem let me first talk about the fun I had this weekend. On Friday, we celebrated Lindsey’s Birthday here at MSU (where else?) We didn’t do anything too special, just the usual, chillin and drinkin. On Saturday we went to the State game against the stupid Rice Owl’s. State didn’t play too well the first half, but in the 2nd they came out strong and ended up winning like 27-10 I think. Saturday night was CANADA! Lindsey, Erika, Ryan, Emily, Chaz, Brooke, and myself all got a hotel (Days Inn yo). After we got settled in the hotel we went to the Beer Store. I bought a 950mL can of Black Ice and Lindsey bought a 6er of Danny’s Hard Lemonade. After Hotel “fun” We went to Bently’s for the famous mini pitchers of Killer Kool-Aids and Long Islands. Soon there after we headed to The Bad Hare (my personal favorite). We followed up with some more drinks and then a lot of dancin! At 2:30 AM we were kicked out of the club (they closed) and we went back to the hotel and passed out. It was definetly a fun night. All Cabin Party 3 and Canada Pics will be posted within 2 weeks! Now let’s start with Saturday the 8th. Justin, Alex, and I bought tickets to the Eminem (Anger Management Tour Concert) the day they came out. We had main floor tickets, which everyone knows are general admission no seats. So we get to the Palace at about 6:45, stand in line, get inside, sign our waivers, and get our single pink wristband indicating we are on the main floor. Note how I said, “single” wrist band. So the three of us fly down the stairs to the main floor and try walking into the front of the mosh pitt area when we’re stopped by a security gaurd. “You guys are back there.” Excuse me? “Your in the back of the main floor.” Excuse me? The security gaurd finally explained to us that, that fag Eminem only wanted the first 1500 people in the front of the mosh pit because he was filming the concert for his upcoming DVD and didn’t want any ‘mishaps’ happening. Immediatly the 3 of us headed for Custom Relations because frankly we didn’t spend 60 bucks to stand in the back behind/around filming equiptment. We all hoped that since Alex has worked for the Palace for 2.5 years they would be cool and give us a second bracelet to get in the main pit. Enter Customer Relations with Hope behind the desk: Alex knows this old broad and tries explaining to her whats going on. She won’t have it. After she pretty much tells us we’re screwed we decide that we want to get our money back and leave the Palace and not even watch the concert. So, we head to the box office. Enter The Box Office with tons of white trash trying to get tickets at the last minute: We go straight to the fifth window and demand our money back. The lady tells us the Palace was not offering any refunds to the concert tonight. So we demand to to talk to the ladies boss. Enter Big Laura: This lady was pretty understanding and we thought we may have actually gottin through to her when Alex explained that he was on his 2 and a half year of working at the Palace. Laura tells us to wait while she tries to get us 2nd wristbands. She comes back and nothing. We’re screwed. We are stuck with our shitty ass back of the main floor tickets that we paid 60 bucks for. We head back to the main floor, watch Ludacris perform for about 15 minutes, and then Justin starts to get into a fight with a security gaurd. The kid was so mad about his ticket he was going to physically attempt to get serviced. The whack part is, it almost worked. He bitched to the security lady so much she finally said, “follow me” she took us back to the box office and tried getting us our money back. Didn’t work. We then went back to Customer Relations and requested a comment form. We then proceeded to the wristband table, had our bands cut off, got a ticket stub and left the building. Eminem – you are a money hungry bitch that doesn’t give one shit about your fans. Don’t expect me to buy your stupid ass DVD or another one of your records for that matter, I’ll just continue to download your shit illegaly so I know that I am not contributing to your income.
