The Dave Green Zone

For those wondering, the world doesn’t seem as friendly as it did the last time I posted. I’ve had all of my wisdom teeth removed since the election, and I think my liberal idealism was housed in my mandibular third molars. Also, there was a terrorist attack in Mumbai, the economy is still tanking, and I was not chosen to be Paris Hilton’s BFF…

Now to business…

After asking absolutely no one except myself, I have decided to banish all of the Twitter posts from the main page. I feel that they were kind of distracting and drew focus away from my longer posts full of witty repartee (like this one). I will still post on twitter and you can read my various pearls of 140 character wisdom by clicking on the new menu link labeled “Twitter” or by visiting my actual Twitter page (www.twitter.com/davegreenrocks).

Does this mean I’m going to be writing more long-form posts? Well, I wouldn’t get your hopes up, but you never know. I’m thinking about dumping my cable soon, so perhaps I’ll be more inspired to blog (or write letters to Jodie Foster).

You might have noticed that all of my posts recently have been through Twitter. That is because Twitter is a fast and easy way to capture my stream of consciousness. If I have a quick idea, I can send a text message, and it’s posted. I will still write longer things, but I love the immediacy of Twitter for everyday stuff. Hopefully some of it is amusing.

Also, from now on instead of calling them “Twitter Updates”, I think I will call them “Dave’s Thoughts.” That has more of a ring to it…

By the way, if this blog seems cooler, it is because this is my first post written on a Mac (a 24″ aluminum imac); though, since I haven’t found a good (and free) blog client for the Mac, I might have to use my Vista laptop to post in the future (Windows Live Writer is an amazing blog client).

P.S. Sorry for that last bit of nerdiness.

Comments are back on The Dave Green Zone! Feel free to express your cheers, jeers, and well-wishes at your will.

Also, I double-posted today (which I normally hate to do), so if you haven’t already, please check out the previous post below– It is hilarious!

You can now leave me voicemail via my new phone number: 210-767-DAVE (210-767-3283). It is a local call for residents of San Antonio. Unfortunately, that was the only area code that I was able to find with a number that spells out my name.

Incidentally, if you already have my cell phone number, that is still the best way to reach me.

I bought the domain name “thedavegreenzone.com” today to avoid any confusion. I admit the confusion is mostly on my part because I say the name of the web site as “The Dave Green Zone”, but there was no “the” in the URL. Anyhow, problem solved.

Oh, and here is yet another Dave Video from the enigmatic and prolific 2manySpades. Once again, I am in awe of both his craftsmanship and his willingness to spend his free time making videos that feature my dumb ass, but I am no less thankful. Check it out:

I put up the discographies of the Gothic Surfers and MC Dave Green in the “Audio” section. I also have a few rare audio gems in the miscellaneous section. Hopefully there will be more to come. I should say that if you have any Dave Green audio that I might not have included, please send it to me. My information is in the “Contact” section, which has also been updated. Look at me, I am like a real life webmaster or something…go figure.

Hi, I’m Dave Green from The Dave Green Zone. This is the blog portion of my new website.   I am hoping this site will be a repository for all the various things I’ve done over the years, from the music I made in high school to my most recent videos. Of course, it could  just be a static page that will never be updated. Hopefully this won’t be my last post. Please enjoy.

Your Friend,

Dave
