Zerbey's Journal: August 30th, 2004

Maybe I'm getting old but did anyone else feel that MTV's VMA awards really, really sucked this year? It seemed to be 90% Hip-Hop and the small amount of non Hip-Hop music they played was done by performers who should've been told polietly to not give up their day job early in their careers. Out of the whole show, I maybe enjoyed one or two performers.

My biggest beef with MTV is the hip-hop. They need to realise that the whole world is not dominated by one genre of music and start playing a variety. We're in the same situation now that we were in in the 1980s when they played nothing but rock music (not that I minded :-)).

Anyway, like I said - I may just be getting old.

Things are slowly returning to normal after Hurricane Charley. We lost power for 7 days and the house remained in a state of total upheaval as we cleaned everything up for another week after that. The only thing left to do now is get the roof fixed, for that we need the insurance adjustor to show up and give us an estimate.

Fun weekend, spent Saturday in St Augustine enjoying the sights. One of my favourite places to visit in this area :) Built half a fence yesterday, one again we're thwarted by the big spinny windy thing, the trees that got downed are now reduced to stumps that require the use of heavy equipment to move. Hopefully this week!
