Apologies my dear friends for the lack of post-age lately. Gellie's excuse would be that postage stamps are too expensive these days. Since working for Switchfoot has made me a millionaire and all, I can't use that excuse. Okay, jokes apart, it's just that we've been away, without much internet access. I was at a picturesque hill-station with some friends - full of breathtaking moments... including one that threatened to literally take our breaths away, on the way up there. So thankful that I'm alive. That someone's still here to write this blog. That you're still there to read it. That my fingers somehow know which key to hit to produce these symbols that somehow represent the words in my mind, turning them into sentences full of meaning, that leap off a screen halfway around the globe, and through your eyes, fill your brain. With the same words, meanings and ideas. All in a matter of seconds, driven by 1's and 0's. Mere symbols. But so powerful. There's really just too much to be thankful for.
So while I was away, my buddy Hailey (who was at the Del Mar Fair show, and who I'm thankful for) reported that Jon was up to some extra-terrestrial behavior. Good thing she caught it on tape, and found an ET picture to compare:


So now you know - it's not a joke when we say Jon is from outer-space.
Postage may be sparse for the rest of this month due to other projects (and heightened extra-terrestrial activity, of course), but come August, we should be back on elephant feet. August has always been good to me. Especially the 3rd.

"...I don't belong here..."
-true story-
-
I'm GLAD that you are okay Phil! I ♥ the picture of Jon, he has a lot in common with aliens!
-
"it wont be long, I belong somewhere past the setting sun"
well that explains it all
-
[[shakes head]]
jono. what are we gonna do with you?
you know. your next big idea to get more fams involved would be taking them on your spaceship with you. Now that's even better than a cowbell.
-
PODCAST 23 UP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
-
-
I must be excited with anonymous. Podcast 23 is up, and suddenly I'm euphoric. I'll go teach Jon to fix iPods... once I learn myself. :D
Oh, and a very nice blog. I always new Jon wasn't of this world. And he was telling us all along. Hurrumph, what irony. He truely doesn't belong here. :3
-
Soooo good to hear from you, Phil! Hope all is well. It was nice for you to wax philosophical there for a moment! Thanks for the Jon/ET photos . That truly made my day!
-
ok, so hes Houdini AND hes from outerspace...I've seen both sides of Jon. But, no matter what..hes so adorable and yes, breathtaking is a good word, sigh. I have a picture of him on "my-space" where he appeared up in the balcony (P~town Oregon)right next to ME.. I swear he came out of no-where. I about passed out, but I got a good picture :} AND met with him and the guys after words. A nite I will treasure.
-
haha. awesome comparison. nice to hear from ya, phil. :)
-
glad you're alive glad jon's from outer space ( explains a lot) glad the pod's back online
-
I didn't know ET was in a band ;)
... and it seems Jon's rather bald...
-
You just never can tell about people...
Nice post phil. I enjoyed your thoughts at the beginning. I envy your incredible talent when it comes to expressing yourself. My thoughts always seem to get stuck somewhere between my brain and my mouth (or fingers in this case).
-
haha! nice post.
ET has always scared me....*runs*
-
That may be the funniest thing I have ever seen... lol!
One of my best friends is terrified of ET, and I happen to have an ET stuffed toy that always seems to end up in her car/bed/shower...
I'm so mean. lol
-
Thank you Phil for such an awesome post! This truly made my day!!!
Jon what can I say? Beautiful Letdown? You are still my #1 favorite guy in the whole wide world though! Always will be.
-
New podcast rocked!!! I laughed so hard at drew's "I'm bored with this interview so I'm going to mess around with the cameraman..." part... lol.
-
PHIL!! wats up buddy? n/e ways, it was cool you turned into Jon for a moment there...
-
^ was drew bored? was he being mean? or was he secretly doing that so it could make it into the podcast so we could all hear that clip?
if #3, he's good
-
wow, that first paragraph was so cool. you took something so simple and pratically made it into poetry. haha Jon is an ET! wohoo! :D
oh yeah...you're birthday is coming up. We have to do something big! :D
-
Did you say something Rose?
-

-
jon as ET = hilllarrrriousss!! :)
-
@anonymous!!!!!!! SPIRIT WEST COAST IS ON THE 3RD!!!! you should go to SWC for your birthday, phill! i used to be scared of ET when i was little. LOL Jon is so funny....and that pic is even funnier!!!! ~lydz
-
@ Anonymous - I'm sure he was just being silly. Tim was talking and Drew just looked up and noticed that the camera was pointed at him, so he started foolin' around. it was very funny. :)
-
well, I'm thankful for you, phil.
...jerk.
:D
-
how could someone compare such a beautiful thing with such an ugly creature that scares kids...JK! lol that is funny and the new podcast is even funnier.
