so i had to do some last minute christmas shopping that i should have done yesterday or a week ago but put it off, so i dragged my guilty ass out the house at 5:45pm. i was pleased to see that every store including wal-mart closes at 6pm on christmas eve, and it was a nice little punishment for my procrastination. however i was put in a bit of a predicament considering all that was open on the rt....
party marty: defined.
a few people have asked me where the “party marty” nickname came from. i asked the man himself who dubbed me “party marty” to provide you with a proper explanation.

Hello “Martin Says” blog-watchers. My name is Doug Spangenberg and I shot and directed Boys Like Girls’ “READ BETWEEN THE LINES” dvd. I was out on the...
today when you pick up your cellphone to send a text message, call the person instead. if someone texts you, call them with your response rather than texting them back. i’ve said a few things about this before, including a brief bit of commentary at the top of this page and the thanksgiving computer shutoff day, a day that i’m proud to report had the least visitors and page views on...

some comedians who recycle the same old schtick in every character they play give me a migraine. cough. dane cook. cough. will farrel. (with the exception of elf of course). cough…but i will never get sick of adam sandler, no matter how many times he recycles his humor, and even recycles his little sidekicks (ex. the “you can do it” guy that is in literally every one of his...

ps. secret valentine EP on itunes december 16. get involved.
surprise ‘a comin…
we played a show with lady gaga last night. i wanna steal her origami outfit. the drive from nashville to memphis has already somehow taken over 5 1/2 hrs. i think the truck drivers around here eat people. this rental car smells like farts and arbys. at least we have the hair nation station on xm to listen to.
it’s 5:55 am and I’m crammed on a full flight from seattle to nashville stuck next to some suit loudly hitting on the lady in our row. there is nothing worse than listening to bad game. does this dude really think he’s gonna join the mile high club by talking about trees? i want a power rangers lunchbox. packed.
i’m glad this blog dosen’t have a “kudos” option. what the hell is a kudo? reminds me of those shitty granola bars i ate in 5th grade.
