Friday, June 03, 2005

Haven't updated in forever, and it is specifically because I hate all of you.
 Especially you Colleen. Anyway...

Cara mentioned that every graduation party she has been to has been
 progressively worse and worse, which is probably not untrue or unusual. This
 got me thinking, if only the first party was amazingly good, then the following
 parties, although ever worsening, would still be pretty fun for a while.
 Expanding upon this idea, I have come up with the 'Thirteen Graduation
 Parties of Joe Schinaman'. The groundrules for this experiment are:


1.) Each party must take place within a span of 24 hours
2.) They must take place on successive, consecutive days.
3.) Each partygoer MUST attend EACH party.

Without further ado...


Party 1, June 12th, 2005

The first party is the most critical party of the "Thirteen...Parties...Schinaman",
 as it is the benchmark from which all the other parties will worsen from.
 Therefore, I feel the only truly worthy event is a heroin induced orgy on a
 Space Yacht. Every since the "Columbia" crashed, space shuttles have been a
 dime a dozen and I know full well I have a few that I've sealed in comically
 oversized mason jars and buried in the swamp out behind the tool shed in fits
 of paranoia. I'll just dig one up, call my pall Xzibit, have him "pimp my ride" as
 they say (ala the academy award winner "Soul Plane"), stock cargo hold with
 the finest of opiates and personal lubricants, and get ready to go on a rock
 and roll love cruise around earth's orbit. Those who can't handle their heroin
 or 24 hours of N*Sync's "Space Cowboy" looped need not attend.


Party 2, June 13th, 2005

After the SS Let's Gwen Stefani Love Cadillac Super America Drive-in
 Chesseburgers 'n Paradise Let's Roll!!! spontaneously combusts somewhere
 over the Ukraine, Party 2 shall begin. Conveniently located at the crash site
 will be monster truck legend "Ironman" Ivan Stewart with a fleet of Super Off
 Road stretch Hummer H2 limosuines, waiting on our beck and call. The party
 will rage on in any of the numerous hot tubs, fully stocked wet bars, and
 hockey arenas inside the vehicles as "Ironman" takes us on the Super Off
 Road journey across the Atlantic back to America. Some of you ninnying
 naysayers out there might be asking yourself, "Psyysyychkhckhkh, theres no
 way "Ironman" Ivan Stewart can drive even the most super of offroad vehicles
 across the ocean in under 24 hours" Those of you who doubt "Ironman's"
 powers obviously are not aware that the custom H2's 32" chrome spinner rims
 actually house Concorde jet engines,  and Ivan will have us stateside before
 you can purge your liquor-drenched innards upon panda-pelt interior.


              
                                   "HOP IN, SUCKAHS"

Party 3, June 14th 2005

This is scheduled to be an erotic slumberparty with all the castmembers of "The
 OC" and "One Tree Hill". The mom from "Gilmore Girls" has been invited as
 well, however she has yet to RSVP. Tea time will be observed at the
 Cincinnatian at 4:00 as well.

Party 4, June 15th 2005

The parties are now becoming noticeably worse than the original party,
 however, they are not yet unenjoyable. On this day I believe we will race
 down hills on giant blocks of ice professionally sculpted to look like vintage
 Corvettes all day, and grind up the iceblocks into delicious margaritas all night.


Party 5 June 16th 2005

This day will feature an all stand up comedy festival. It will feature Sinbad,
 Omar Gooding, and Phil Lamarr, and be a sort of watered down, racially
 inoffensive version of the Def Jam comedy tour.

Party 6, June 17th, 2005

This will be the standard get-crunk 'Katie Woodruff's house' style party.
 Drunkyland will be played, Megan Miller will piss herself, and the whole affair
 will be off both the hook and the chain simultaneously.

Party 7, June 18th, 2005

This is the midpoint party. It will be the standard open-house graduation party
 which lasts for some batshit insane period of time, like 12:35 to 3:22, and isn't
 particularly fun but won't leave you trying to bite out your own jugular vein in
 desperation either.

Party 8, June 19th, 2005

This is the beginning of the 'bizarro parties', which are dull and awkward
 parodies of all the former parties. This one will be identical to party 6, except
 that the only alcohol served will be Smirnoff Daquiri Wine Coolers, the only
 drinking game played will be Axis and Allies: Pacific Front, Megan Miller will
 wear some sort of adult diaper that will prevent her from visibly urinating all
 over herself, and basically the whole affair will be firmly attached to both the
 chain and the hook.

Party 9, June 20th, 2005

This consists of watching a twenty-four hour marathon of "Antiques
 Roadshow" in a room full of mortally ill elderly people who could awkwardly
 die at any moment.

Party 10, June 21st, 2005

This will be a boiling water chugging contest. Whoever drinks the most boiling
 water wins bragging rights and third degree burns through 90% of their
 gastrointestinal tract.

Party 11,  June 22nd, 2005

This is an erotic slumber party with all the castmembers of "The Golden Girls."
 Caution, Bea Arthur is noted for her hardcore nipple bondage  and
 scatological fetishes.

Party 12, June 23rd, 2005

Today all the partygoers must go fishing for king crab in Alaska's Bering Sea to
 help defray the costs of all the previous parties, which to date include:

1 Space Shuttle- $1.3 billion
60 kilos of pure Afghani heroin- $3.6 million
3 Stretch Hummer Limos- $700,000
24 hours worth of "Ironman" Ivan's services- priceless
"Cincinnatian" hotel fare for every partygoer and OC/OTH cast member, at
 roughly $1500 a night- $1500x
Ice blocks- $200
Costs of hiring Sinbad, Phil Lamarr and Omar Gooding for a gig- $12
Incalcuable gallons of alcohol- unknown
Bea Arthur's studded vinyl catsuit and matching anal speculum set- $400
1 Fishing Boat- $70,000

As you can see, we will have to catch roughly a billion and a half dollars worth
 of crabs in twenty four hours, which essentially means we will have to make
 extinct a keystone predator of Alaska's only worthwhile ecosystem.

Party 13, June 24th, 2005

This is it, the Anti-party. This has to be the worst imaginable party ever, and
 quite frankly, I can't think of anything thats really worse than bondage Bea
 Arthur, to tell the truth. So I think I'm going to take the pussy, Catholic
 Church cop-out and say that the theme of  Party 13 is eternal seperation from
 God's love, rather than physical punishment. Maybe later on I'll come up with
 something more concrete, like an alternate dimension where we are all eaten
 alive by Larry Hagman's eyebrows or are steamrolled by Cameron Manhiem's
 fatrolls or something, but I'm sorry, I'm creatively tapped at the present.


Anyway, if you wish to be a part of "The Thirteen Parties", please apply
 ASAP, I'm sure space shuttle seats will fill up quickly.

Spring Break Redux '05

This is a dry, vapid recollection of everything i remember (and forget, for that
 matter) doing on spring break, so read this if you care, I guess. Also, feel free
 to remind me what we did on any of the days that are shrouded in hookah
 smoke.

Prequel: Graeter's with Alex, Phil and Amanda. Phil predictably spills things on
 himself and eats about twelve dollars worth of cookies in the form of free
 samples. We sit in Phil's Riviera for < ten minutes, thus draining the battery.
 Alex verbally abuses Phil and jumps his car. Amanda is wounded and flown
 off the battlefield via helicopter, the survivors play minigolf.

Day 1: The ever illustrious Annie picks me up from exams and we soujourn to
 the wilds of Colerain. After warding off the native savages, our train of
 elephants arrives at the Huey household. Mom delivers tales of woe from the
 previous evening: apparently the alcoholic beverages served at Annie's party
 the night before contained some sort of stomach virus, as those who drank the
 ludacrously excessive amounts of vodka and whiskey ended up vomiting. This
 did not sit well with the Huey matriarch, and as such, we were entreated with
 the duty of taking about a fucking dozen (equivalent to, say, a baker's dozen)
 sleeping bags to some laundromat and wash them. Armed with a satchel of
 quarters, we loaded up the elephants with the soiled sheets. Upon inspecting
 what had become our charge, I must say loyal readers that I was filled with
 existential doubt and a deep-seated loathing for virtually everything. All of the
 things to be washed were comically childish in nature; most were sleeping
 bags that featured The Thundercats or The Little Mermaid or GI Joe and what
 have you. However, decadence drenched all that my childhood once held
 dear: Panthro's face was awash with vomit. Cheetara was besmudged with
 human excrement. Ariel found herself tainted with enough musty cognac that
 the seven seas themselves could never wash it all away, so much Smirnoff that
 even Poseidon's magical beard could not soak it all up. A hearty load of
 reproductive fluid was strewn across Sargeant Slaughter's God-fearing,
 freedom-loving visage. These sights might have felled a lesser man, but,
 luckily, my soul was killed by Trader's World long ago, and I was now a
 loose cannon cop with nothing left to lose. Bearing that in mind we set out
 towards the laundromat. Once there my disposition improved, as after loading
 the laundry, we played air hockey with elf crackers, shared some life stories
 and sat on pleasingly-vibratory washing machines. Annie even used the
 plethora of quarters to purchase temporary tattoos with the plausible intention
 of affixing them to her breasts, but alas, not all dreams can be made realities.
 After three hours of good, "clean" fun, (clean, as in what you do at a
 laundromat, eh? ZING!) we went to a panera bread where we were
 datejacked by Phil. From there, we went to some shitty forest or something, i
 don't really remember. In any case, she ended up leaving, and Phil and I went
 to Besl's for the Apprentice Party. Afterward, we attempted to steal a Dairy
 Mart sign from a former Dairy Mart, but we got cockblocked by a
 humorously jamaican employee. Joe ended up coming home with me. I'm sure
 some stuff happened, and then we slept. Day one was finally over, but Spring
 Break '05 was just beginning, and I could never look back.

Day 2: Joe and I awoke and treated ourselves to a heaping helping of Mauntel
 for breakfast. From the wise sage Mauntel we learned of the glories of both
 www.famteam.com and www.dogonahog.org

After that, we went to the Music Palace, one of the most underrated
 establishments in the state, maybe even the nation. More on that later, but if I
 wind up getting a prom date (ladies, I'm now accepting applications) I'm
 taking her/him there for dinner.

I believe I spent the evening with the lovely Ms. Bradley and committed an
 number of indecent acts the FCC will not permit me to share on this widely
 published, nationally distributed and actual form of media.

Day 3: Sweet Christ, I just realized that I have no concept of time. I really have
 no idea in what order these events all took place. I think today I went on a 14
 hour journey to Dayton with Amanda, which was most definately 14 hours. Of
 random stuff. I can't totally recall all that occured in that 14 hour period, but
 I'd be willing to bet it shaved off about ten years of my life.

Day 4: Easter. I will have a photo documentary of this experience once I get
 the film developed, which should be never.

Day 5: Party at Amanda's. This was alright, I suppose. Actually, between the
 physical damage of being placed in a sack and beaten by Alex and the
 emotional damage of sitting through hours of karoke sober, it was pretty
 traumatic. But afterwards, I went to Annie's, where we ate Nutella and stale
 bread. From there, Katie Woodruff, Theresa Whats-her-face, Annie, some
 guy and I blasted off to the Blue Wisp downtown. There we sipped Shirley
 Temples, smoked bubblegum cigarettes, wore blazers, listened to jazz, did the
 Bill Murray Lost-in-Translation one-handed clap thing at the end of sets, and
 basically were pretentious as fuck.

Day 6: LLAMA DAY.

 People and I went to a llama farm and subsequently saw llamas.

Day 7: Cara and I took a college visit to Indiana Wesleyan University.

Day 8: Wonderful party at Katie Woodruff's. Most of the activities revolved
 around Beth Ann for whatever reason. She was as drunk as I've ever seen
 any conscious person, and never seemed to stop drinking in the duration of
 the evening. But in any case I got to play the piano for a while and, more
 importantly, I got to play a pretty sloppy game of Barbie: Queen of the Prom
 against Bass. Alex claims he won but he didn't get any of the prom courtisans
 which i think disqualifies him, whereas I promptly picked up the asian chick.
 Actually, lets break down the end results; I'll let you decide who won.



I think they know who their daddy is.

Also, on the subject of games, barbie dream prom was not the only contest of
 wit and skill to be played at this party. Annie and Beth Ann had an epic wine
 cooler chugging contest which is in the top 1000 greatest things to which i've
 ever borne witness. Also, a game to which adaquate praise would fill the limits
 of the internet a hundred times over, and as such I will merely mention, called
 "Drunkyland" was played.

Day 9: Parky's farm reopened on this day and we all got lost in another
 goddamn forest.

Day 10:  I did nothing on this day. Also, I just now realized that my original
 "spring break safari" theme for this article kinda tapered off about mid-day
 one. I mentioned putting the laundry on elephants and then i just devolve into
 bitching for the next few thousand words.

Day 11:  Phil and I went to the fake starbucks inside borders and whined
 about our lives for a few hours, then looked at the magazine rack and once
 again became aware of our superiority above everyone who reads magazines.
 Also tried to prank call annie about half a dozen times and make her take a
 cosmo quiz via phone, but to no avail.

And I'm spent.

Sunday, February 13, 2005

Some of you may remember that one of the blueprint holiday shopping
 extravaganza's featured a shining beacon of commerce called Trader's World.
 Well, yesterday, I ventured to that very place in search of "the perfect gift" for
 mom's birthday. At this infernal place I found no gift at all and indeed lost my
 innocence.

I must say that as I drove up to the parking lot, I felt my spirits start to flag.
 Evil, in the form of a comically oversized, anatomically correct and apparently
 excited fiberglass buffalo, loomed in the horizon. As I stared into the
 expressionless face of the giant buffalo, I knew all hope was lost. But
 something, maybe desperation, more likely madness, bid me into that lot.


I parked out in a vacant area behind the complex, as if to try to distance myself
 from the rows of shitty eighties cadillacs and astrovans that had corralled in the
 main lot. But I soon realized that nothing could isolate me from the wretched
 vehicles filled to the brim with trinkets nor those who drove them.


I was again tempted to leave before I ever entered the marketplace. As I was
 on my way in, a couple and their brood were exiting. The rather slatternly
 woman stared at me, looking perplexed. I stared back, as those who are
 stared at tend to do. I tore my eyes away but they were again magnetically
 drawn to the hideous woman's staring visage. Then she spoke:


"Look Billy its steve from blue's clues"

I furrowed my brow, my eyes still grappling with the beast's.

"Wait, I meant Where's Waldo"

Thats right, bitch. Steve never wore a red sweater. But no matter. My fashion
 sense was being publicly insulted by a 300 pound woman with biker blonde
 hair, a NKU jacket and leather pants. I knew then that  I was in over my
 head. By I had already payed my dollar to park; I had crossed the rubicon.
 But it was going to be a long four hours.


As you all well know, I'm as liberal as any bed-wetting, bra-burning subversive
 commie pinko can be. I even went to third base with Ralph Nader during an
 anti war rally for $10, and I donated it all to a vegan awareness campaign. But
 even my profusely bleeding heart was truned to stone that day. At a place like
 Trader's World, all idealism is lost and it is replaced only with the cold desire
 to survive. You also begin to notice that at Trader's World, people only exist
 as the most base, one dimensional sterotypes of the ethnicities they belong to.
 All the protestants are fundamentalist christians and members of the NRA. All
 the catholics belong to some sketchy "german american" society that is a thinly
 veiled front for getting wasted, talking about how the holocaust never really
 happened, and participating in homoerotic, spanking-based initiation rituals.
 These things are somehow just loomingly apparent. You just "know". Its
 utterly bizarre.


Some other observations:

1. All the white people fit into two groups.  Half of the white people have long,
 possibly poorly dyed blonde hair, scowl constantly, are wearing leather pants
 and 80's hairband promo shirts, and want to kill you senselessly. The other
 half are obviously fundamentalist christians, and although they don't actively
 want to kill you, are convinced you will go to hell. Roughly all of the white
 people are also morbidly obese. So essentially going to Trader's World akin
 to going to a giagantic indoor garage sale populated by 5000 bloated Zac
 Lees and John O Connors.

2. All white people sell essentially the same products. Every white person's
 booth contains some assortment of t-shirts that feature inconcievably buxom
 women and motorcyles with witty taglines such as "Floppers n' Choppers" or
 some sort of Daisy Duke girl saying "Making the South rise again and again."
 It is so obvious that every shirt features either confederate flags or quasi-nazi
 regalia that I almost didn't even bring it up.

3. All black people sell a precocious mishmash of plastic spinners, religious
 items that feature a black, muscular, dreadlocked jesus, knockoff basketball
 jerseys,  african tribal artwork, and drug paraphenalia. It is absolutely
 invariable that all the aforementioned items be featured in every booth manned
 by a black person. Thats just an ugly truth of Trader's World.

4. Asians were by far the most mysterious ethnic group at Trader's World.
 Asian vendors sell only hats and hands-free cellphone accesories. I don't
 know what the correlation between asians and hats is, but the asians had
 absolutely sinful numbers of hats. Tables and tables covered in piles eight hats
 deep. It was madness. Also, every single asian I saw that wasn't working a
 booth was making out with another asian. Granted, this only amounted to
 maybe four asian couples, but they were also the only people  I saw making
 out the whole time. Maybe its not enough to make any conjectures, but it still
 made me think.What was it about nascar and corndogs and polka and
 absolutely hideously obese white people that roused the asians' loins?


5. Native Americans only sell the hideous crap that one might associated a
 Native American with selling. Things like dream catchers, headdresses, and
 t-shirts with pictures of howling wolves or running stallions on them. Also,
 Every real Native American looked really depressed. However, all the poser
 Native Americans (you know who I'm talking about, the old white people with
 grey ponytails and howling wolf t-shirts and feather earrings that are 1/32
 cherokee or something) seemed really happy to be there.

6. The Amish were by far the sketchiest ethnic group, and in the intrigue
 category they were second only to the amorous asians with all the hats. There
 was one Amish family at Trader's World. First off, they were selling shit out of
 the back of a van. HEY FUCKING AMISH PEOPLE, did you get the
 memo about the horse and buggy thing? And for christ sake, they weren't
 even selling faceless corn dolls or squash or anything stereotypical like that.
 they were selling FUCKING BOOTLEG CD-R's. Okay, jesus christ, maybe
 they had a shetland pony under the hood of the van instead of an internal
 comubustion engine or something, but theres no way the Amish can burn cds
 and still sleep at night. Hey, Jebodiah, did you download "Get Rich or Die
 Tryin'" off the fucking butter churn? Isiah, did you burn that copy of "Word of
 Mouf" with a tallow candle? Honestly, when I saw them I was already past
 the point of insanity and I doubted my own eyes. For I minute I tried to
 rationalize the situation and I kept telling myself "Maybe they are just a family
 of rabbis whose wives happen to think bonnets are stylish" but that made even
 less sense than what I was trying to explain away.  And for those of you who
 will invariably ask me, "Were there really Amish people selling fake cds, Joe?
 Hmmmm?" I say to you, can you make this shit up?


In any case, around hour 4, I had reached the belly of the beast, the inner
 nexus of the Trader's World compound: The Food Court. As one might be
 able to deduce from the overwhelming fatness and whiteness of the general
 populace, the food court featured every kind of meat known to man in either
 tube or fried form. To my newly vegetarian self, all these various meats
 created a thick, sadomaochistic stench I found both torturous and tantalizing.
 On one hand, I was driven almost to vomiting by the mere thought of it, and
 yet, my mind battered as it was, there was a sickly glimmer of temptation in
 my mind to feast upon corndog after corndog, moaning in ecstasy in a sensory
 overload of processed pork flesh,  live polka music, and projection screen
 NASCAR. And yet I battled on deeper and deeper into the heart of the food
 court until I had reached the Ninth Level of Trader's World. This was it. This
 was where the obese man in lederhosen played the accordian and belted out
 "Who stole the Kieshka"  over the PA. This is were the 1992 big screen TVs
 played nonstop Spike TV. This was where you signed up to for the chance to
 win the '97 Dodge Dakota Pickup and forever be locked into the Trader's
 World mailing list. This was where, obscured from view by racks and racks of
 XXL "IF YOU CAN'T FEED 'EM DON'T BREED 'EM" t-shirts, resided
 the three headed visage of Satan himself, eternally locked in a sno-cone,
 gnawing on the souls of Judas, Brutus, and Cassius, and maybe a few
 bratwurst and funnel cakes as well. It was about this time that I fell to my
 knees Platoon-style and just blacked out. I awoke hours later in my neon, still
 without a birthday present for mom. I decided just to go to target and get
 something cliche. It seemed at the time that all I had lost during the trip was a
 few hours, but, I was not so lucky. A piece of me died in that flea market, a
 piece of me I can never get back. Now the sun does not seem as bright, a
 lover's kiss holds less warmth, colors themselves, it seems, have faded
 somewhat. But I am survivor. I entered into a place more horrifying than
 Hanoi, Dachau, and the Khemer Rouge combined and then multiplied by
 Auschwitz, and left with my life. And I have the "Floppers n' Choppers" boxer shorts to prove it.

Well well well

its that time of year yet again

lent

the time for us all to give up our vices, i.e. reasons to live

This year I'm sticking to the common staple of giving up masturbating. This will of course be the anchor sacrifice to which all other sacrifices will be tethered. All other sacrifices will bow before this one in all its infinitely impossible glory.

I think I'll also pull a phil for good measure and give up meat as well.

Just to round it all out, drinking only water and skim milk will bring up the rear.

To prepare for my journey into the wilderness of my own willpower, I drank half a bottle of straight tom collins mix and 64 FL OZ of Hi-C just to get it out of the house. I also ate all the hot pockets, as those delicious little morsels of sin will inevitably lead me astray if I suffer them to exist any longer. I also flushed all the lubricative substances in the house just to be on the safe side with that. Also, if anybody has a cracked version of Net Nanny they'll let me use, that'd be great.
