You’ve achieved success in your field when you don’t know whether what you’re doing is work or play. – Warren Beatty

James: They don’t call me C.S.I. James for nothing.

James on ‘Juicy’ by Notorious B.I.G.: “Sometimes his flow is so good I can’t keep up.”

James to Prof. Lalli, via e-mail:
Hello, I am James Harnett. I was in your Pop, Rock, and Soul class this past semester, which I thought was rather comprehensive for the time allowed except for one specific aspect. I recall for the first assignment we had to write a paper about the one CD we’d take on a desert island. As a postscript to this paper, we then listed our 5 favorite artists. The syllabus proclaimed that the class would then be given a breakdown of the most popular artists among us, however I’m assuming we ran out of time before this roster was tabulated. In any event, I was wondering if you still had this data since I was rather interested in the results.

Kathleen: I always see your away messages and the quotes you put in your profile and I know they’re from songs but I always think they’re songs no ones ever heard of. And then I hear the song and I’m like oh wait that was in Steve’s away message. Lol, yea just thought I’d tell you that. I thought it was worth a chuckle, lol.

James talking about a video game he beat:
James: 75 hours of gameplay for a 2 minute nothing-a-thon
Me: That’s a let down
James: I question my lifestyle
James: But not to the point that makes me want to change it

James: I like the way my voice sounds on the recorder, that’s because I’m arrogant.

Some quotes borrowed from James’ page:
Me:
Or maybe his pool is gone, but the water is still there. Think about…He’s got a hole…filled with mud.

Doug:
East meets west in the perfect combination of man!
Haha! This guy’s a crack up!
Hey Steve, can I borrow a pencil? *Steve gives Doug a pencil* Thanks, you’re a babe.
Have you ever seen Battlebots? The concept sounds really cool, but in action…It’s like Communism.
I always said the dimmer the woman, the better the wife.
The men were simple and the women were simply divine.
Cranberries!

Kathleen: How come you’re on James’s computer?
Doug: Cause I’m cool.

Jax’s away message: so apparently when i get amazed i spill huge glasses of water on people, or just steve

This, take from Allison 2.0′s profile, nicely explains 12/22/04: oh man, december 22 2004 was the awesomest night ever….thanks to clutch-master J, mcGreggor, Doooglas, and Blaise from Saratoga and Steve, the kid from Queens who doesnt know his way around the city, at all…good times guys…i can’t wait to do it again. Hell yea to bar fights….im pissed i missed it. oh yea, word up to the little asian woman selling us dvd’s and fucking up our order…

Doug: i may not make it back next semester. i’ve been having trouble adjusting to food without sub connection being around. i’ve recently been suffering from anorexia and today is my fourth day in intensive care. i just can’t eat. anyway, pray for me. hopefully i’ll make it through this, but if not i hope god is saving an italian for me in heaven made by the black retard. sincerely, douglas

Darrell: i know how you feel doug, i myself have become belemic due to the loss of subs in my system. alas i’ve tried places like quiznos which gave me terrible gas and bowel obstructions at the thought of cheating my precious sub connection, as a pentalty to myself and the rest of my frat brothers of phi psi sub i’ve self mutilated myself across the wrists, face and lower portion of my genitals, you may not be able to recognize me next semester or over the winter as the wounds may not heal, but i think we can all collectively agree, will the wounds caused by the void of sub connection in our hearts and stomachs ever truly heal….? love, darrell

One of my most recent favorites:
Ferri: I wanna be in an a white escalade driving with the windows opened with 4 of my best friends screaming our heads off to some great tunes with hot cherry valley in the back that will be consumed in mere minutes….:-D
those my friends,
those are good times

Me: You think of a quote yet?
Kathleen: Nope.
Kathleen: I used to be funnier.
Kathleen: I dont’ know what happened.

Matt interviews me for his Music paper…
Matt: What kind of music do you listen to?
Me: Rock, classic rock, punk, very little pop, no country, emo as well
Matt: You say you listen to no country. Why not?
Me: Because it sucks, its all whiney and all about the same things.
Matt: What types of things do you mean?
Me: It’s all about someone leaving them, and they singers usually can’t sing.
Matt: How much country have you listened to to reach this opinion?
Me: Not much.
Matt: So, then how come you feel like you have a good knowledge of the genre?
Me: I dont, just the small sample has turned me off to the whole genre, and since music by genre is relatively similar, I assume and make quick judgments.

Me to Jax: I totally have a good reason for listening to Air Supply.

Jeff to Kesh: Dude, are there gonna be elephants and shit at your wedding?

James (refering to his action figures): I like to dress up inanimate objects and look at them. You’re so beautiful.

Me: I totally spun the wheels before.
James: Don’t they spin when your moving?
Me: I’m totally gonna put that on my website.

Doug: If there is one thing rock and roll has taught us, it’s that you will never write anything worthwile unless your taking barbituates to counteract withdrawl from your heroin addiction… :-D

Jeff: Your mom goes to college.

Danielle: Lick em. It applies to every situation in life.
