I gave a presentation in my college religion class on the song "Bankrupt on Selling" in 1999.

... I played Good News in it's entirety to my sunday school class. I got the idea from seeing Float On on Kids Bop.

No one I work with cared and in fact were dancing along. Hooray early corruption!!!

...when I married my wife (also a Modest Mouse fan) we both kept our MM discographies instead of selling the duplicates, so we could have one set in the home and one set in the car.

... that I told the bride (my boss at the time) at her wedding that she chose the worst day to get married because I was missing their concert (w/ Flaming Lips and Cake).

I know its not a god damn sentence-but I'm still pissed about it.

The contest is already over?? Damn.

I was going to say, OPA would give you a blow job if you gave the book to me (of course, he didn't know it, but you know how he is....).

I love Modest Mouse SO much, that I wish I were cheese, and that they would eat me up because you are what you eat, and then I'd be a part of Modest Mouse too!
