Here’s a recap of the Massive Monkees 10 Year Jam at Evo. It was hot, crowded, and muggy, but a day like that surrounded by good people is totally worth it. Thanks to all those who came through and purchased a FK x MM shirt! They will be available again once the online shop is up. Thank you for your continued support. And a special thanks to Eric for helping me out behind the camera. Here are the photos. Enjoy them and get out today to enjoy the sunshine!

The Massive Monkees are featured on front page of The Seattle Times website. Here are a few quotes from the article that reflect their values, beliefs, and goals.

“Our goal is to maintain us, our relationship, our crew and our integrity,” said member Brysen Angeles, 28

“The group is a family,” said Jerome “Jeromeskee” Aparis, 26. “We grew up together. Family comes first. We build each other up, then we battle.”

“We have great chemistry,” said Florentino “Flow Funk” Francisco, 28. “We feed off each other.”

“You had to work harder to cultivate it,” said Mabanta, 26.

Much of what is emphasized in these quotes reflect what the Massive Monkees stand for and work towards. FRESH Kids share many of the same values. Family. Respect. Education. Style. Hustle. The Massive Monkess have definitely set a great example for everyone, and it’s nice to see such an influential group of people speak so humbly.

FRESH Kids would like to congratulate Massive Monkees on making it to ten years.

Gov. Christine Gregoire has just signed a bill that basically says a business with 3 or more people must allow customers to use any employee restrooms as long as it does not pose a security risk. Originally, the proposal was for customers with inflammatory bowel diseases with proper identification to be allowed to use employee restrooms. Now we all can.

Gov. Chris Gregoire has signed a bill that lets people have easier access to business’ bathrooms.

Gregoire signed the bill Monday and it takes effect July 26.

The original proposal required retailers without public restrooms to allow people with inflammatory bowel diseases to use employee restrooms, if they had an identification card or a letter from a doctor or nurse.

That provision remains in the new law. But it also requires businesses to allow any customer to use an employee restroom if three or more employees are working at the time, and the request doesn’t pose a security risk.

Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready, who suffers from Crohn’s disease, testified for the bill earlier this year.

That’s the the shit.

The recent release of the Windows 7 Release Candidate has gotten even Mac users to download it (for free) directly from the Microsoft website and try it out. You can run Windows 7 until at least June 2010. If you want to use it on a Mac, Google it and you should be able to find step by step instructions. Windows users, just download and install (back-up everything first, of course).

Browsing through the different themes and desktop images, I noticed a wallpaper that many Seattleites may appreciate. Click on the image to download the full image.
