363 In Chains (Remixed)

In Uncategorized on April 29, 2009 at 7:05 pm

The second half of this podcast goes better than the first part. Sorry, but I was kind of out of it tonight. I talk about Jeremy later in this podcast. I also talk about Holt and note the simularities between these two relationships. I also rethink my opinion of Depeche Modes new CD, “Sounds of the Universe.” It’s beginning to grow on me. Outro music: “In Chains” from “Sounds of the Universe” by Depeche Mode. Download it on iTunes. Mic: Electrovoice RE20; Mixer: Mackie DFX6; Recording device: Garageband. Total running time: 53 minutes 59 seconds. Click here to listen or right click to download.

NOTE: There was an annoying echo I tried to eliminate by remixing this podcast. I sound horrible on the RE20 mic. Also, lowered the resolution of this one. Sorry if you got both. Just delete the first one. Thanks

My flower garden video

In Uncategorized on April 29, 2009 at 2:51 pm

Take a look at my flower garden. Well, maybe its not so much a garden, but I’m enjoying watching as these beautiful flowers change (grow). I’m not enjoying having to water them. I’ve never seen the guy down the street water his knock out rose bushes! And his are beautiful. Hmm, Is there a secret to making flowers thrive without having to water them every day? HELP. Go here to see the video.

Wrong

In Uncategorized on April 19, 2009 at 1:58 pm

I thought of Zacery Nova when I watched the video of Depeche Mode’s new single, “Wrong”. Sorta like a horror short which leaves a guy wondering. Yo Zac, you may wish to download this. I’d like to know what you think. Here is the link to the music video on iTunes. Also take a look at Zacery’s blog entitled, “Why do I like stupid horror movies?”

Young boy bullied to death

In Uncategorized on April 19, 2009 at 4:35 am

He was called flamboyant. He was called a fag. He was an 11 year old boy who attended New Leadership Charter School in Springfield, Massachusetts, a sixth grader who wanted one day to be President. On Monday, April 6, 2009, young Carl tied an extension cord around his neck and hung himself. He had been taunted and picked on unmercifully. His mother had made repeated calls to the school about the bullying. But it continued. Now Carl is at peace.

Some students at the school had made Carl a target, calling him “gay”, making fun of how he dressed and threatening him. My opinion? The Principal of New Leadership Charter School ought call an assembly of the students and publicly tell those who bullied Carl that they are guilty for Carl’s death. But that will never happen. He would never speak aloud what we know to be true.

This happens to often in our schools. Parents do not teach their children to be tolerant. Some even teach (by their actions) intolerance and hatred. Young boys are a frequent target for such abuse. Carl would have turned 12 on April 17. A vigil was held at his school in his memory. A boy who lost his place in life because he was different. Read about the story here and Google: Carl Joseph Walker-Hoover for more information about this story.

359 Pretty

In Uncategorized on April 15, 2009 at 3:59 pm

Recording with the Zoom H2 today. I start out talking about having a craving for Publix peanut butter cookies, but the Publix didn’t have any baked because “they don’t sell.” Anyway at the end of this podcast I ask all my listeners to submit a photo of their feet. We’re going to find out who really has the prettiest feet. Play along. This is a raw podcast. No intro/outro music. Just me talking and a few interesting bird sounds.

My feet

My feet

My feet

Maybe my feet aren’t so pretty after all. Ok, here’s the deal. I asked in my most recent podcast for you guys and ladies to send a picture of your pretty feet to nickthomaspodcast@gmail.com. As of this post I haven’t received one picture. Ben of ideologic.com has offered up a link to a picture of his feet. Thanks Ben for redoing yours offering up a better view. Paul in London has said he’ll send in a pic this weekend, but I suspect Paul was one of the few listener’s who considered my feet pretty. I don’t know this for certain, but I figure. Go figure! N e way, so you guys need to put your feet where your vote is. Let us see you’re pretty feet or I’ll just figure you haven’t got such pretty feet after all. LOL :) Feet is a fetish for me. I’d do anything to pretty feet. So once again I ask all who think their feet are prettier than mine to send in a pic. We’ll let the people decide just who really does have the prettiest feet. Otherwise your vote is meaningless.

Hiding behind the mask

356 Pink Triangles

In Uncategorized on April 4, 2009 at 5:54 pm

I talk about symbols used to identify gays. One of which was used to identify gays marked for extermination in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. Now we live in an age of electonic devices which can also be used to tag us and our interests. Trucker Alex turned me onto a new piece of software for the iPhone and the iPod Touch. It’s called Grindr. Outro Music: “American Life” by Madonna. Mic: Shure SM7B; Mixer: Mackie DFX6; Recording device: Garageband. Total running time: 52 minutes 28 seconds.
