Well I'll be damned!

I just logged in. Whaddaya think O' dat?
Life is good, if one doesn't think beyond one's front yard or about anything farther ahead than tomorrow.....
Woah. High up on the thread!
Are we sci-fi blogging? is everyone downstairs?
yes, me, too, just got here, myself.
We had cloud cover for most of the day but the sun came out mid-afternoon. It was a good day for yard work. Then it rained a little.
Are we sci-fi blogging? is everyone downstairs?
Not much going on, livebloggingwise.
Did you catch Count Pimpula?
The Other Sarah! How's by you?
I am, 4LG... I should really turn off the radio, I suppose.
...Count Pimpula....?
Don't do it, Ani.
Ooo, Scary Elevator!
Of DOOM!!!
I'm terrified.
Sort of.
...Count Pimpula....?
Boo had a snippet of a fake "Dynamite Jones" blaxpo movie, with "Count Pimpula" as the villain.
I actually wish I watched teevee when you guys are watching sci-fi.
Did you catch Count Pimpula?
I did. I've been watching while putting the groceries away.
DON'T GO TO THE THIRD FLOOR!!!
I'll blog a little sci-fi. I saw where Jeff Lynne was trying to get an animated version of "War of the Worlds" off the ground based on the rock opera of the same name. Has anyone heard anything about this?

So speaking of French martial arts action thrillers, anyone seen District B13 yet? I'm thinking of heading out to it in a bit. Getting great reviews.
Damn!
I forgot to buy popcorn for tonight's SciFi live blog.

Lots of loops all over my carpet today...white ones, in fact, because the painter spilled a gallon of paint.

What sort of awful movie are you planning to watch?
I'm terrified.
I'm sleepy.

It's the same old story, the same old song and dance.
so is this sci-fi movie any good?
It's probably all downhill after Count Pimpula.

No, hired him under the table - side job. $ 20 an hour.
My bad bad bad bad mistake.

Do I have time to make tacos during the commercial? Ooooh, what to do???

Iliad. Don't you remember when Odysseus and Achilles had that whole Great Taco Debate right before the latter was killed?

No, everytime I watch it, Anakin does the same stupid shite.

Well, I kept my cool. They got it cleaned up. I googled what to do, they followed the instructions, and it's gone. But damn. I'm sick of these kids. Been here for over a month doing very little, actually, and I told him I needed it done by today at the latest, and he's still not fucking done with the back hall and a little bit of finish work.
Sick. of. this.
/Sorry.
Kinda scary, you guys know more about Canadian TV than I do. Haven't heard of any of those show. I just get broadcast stuff, no cable.
Has season 6 of TPB started yet?
It has.

There's some truth to that, as far as that goes. She has found it kind of...eye-opening.

I can only speak for myself, but I'd put up with a bunch if I could meet a guy who knew *how* to love me, what to do, how to move me.
Oh, Trailer Park Boys, from right here in Dartmouth. They film around the corner from me. Never seen it.
So I'm guessing Obnoxious Boyfriend and Slutty User Girl get killed off, and Pure-Hearted Blonde hooks up with Loser Milquetoast.

Truer words were never spoken. I know that, but these kids were so earnest, and I thought I would do them a favor. Like I said, I made a mistake.
Took 'em a full day to assemble and install a storm door (standard door by Anderson, shouldn't have been difficult), and a shower door (small door). I could have had Menards or Home Depot install both of them for $ 100. Oh well.

Yes, so far. But I still think they peaked two seasons ago with the "Conky" episode.

Audrey saw Phantom of the Opera on Broadway on Wednesday. She really liked it, apparently, but the only ALW musicals I like are JCS and Evita. Phantom makes me vomit a little in my mouth.
Anyway, I get a theme in my brain, and it won't leave for days.

You know, I thought - only today - of the perfect example for Goldstein: A blues singer saying "I need a little sugar in my bowl" instead of "I want to fuck." They both refer to the same state of mind, but if you want to understand why the first one is used, you have to understand the culture of censorship circa 1927, and the weird borderland "race records" inhabited within that culture, and the economics of small record labels, and the long tradition of double meanings in oppressed subcultures, yadda yadda.
Wish I'd brought it up at the time.

My boss got lucky hiring some young 'uns. They were high school friends of her son, now early 20's, and had been construction/contracting for about 5 years. The lead guy presented his ideas for the kitchen, they liked it, trusted him, and they went off to France for a week while he and his crew did a basic remodel on the kitchen (and watched the dog). No problems.
This sort of luck would never happen to me.

Hey baybee. What are you doin after the thread?
I just read the thread below, "They Call Him Bubba."
Aren't there any Southern voters who find this stereotyping by the right offensive?
They're saying that Southerners - or anyone living in a "red state" - are so dumb they don't get stuff like culture, etc.
That the Repukes are successful because they talk down to the rubes.
I'd be pissed off!
You know, I thought - only today - of the perfect example for Goldstein: A blues singer saying "I need a little sugar in my bowl" instead of "I want to fuck."

Police, media silence sought as Bush officials turned Rayburn parking garage into temporary auto-body shop
Bush administration officials operated Memorial Day weekend damage control to cover up the deaths of three foreign intelligence operatives—two British and one French—involved in a Friday morning shootout in the House of Representatives parking garage.
The altercation turned into an exchange of automatic weapons fire over a pouch containing evidence files documenting an operation to bomb the rail system along the Northeast corridor on Thursday—with the full knowledge of George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair who was in Washington while the operation was being hatched

whatever happened to dick shawn?
he was a real funny one, in an idiot savant kind of way.
ever see him do the song to a flower?
dick shawn died in the manner that all comedians and actors would aspire to: he literally died on stage in the middle of his act.
it was his one man show, which i had the pleasure of seeing (tho not on the fateful night). it was, of course, rambling, non-sequitorious, unexpected, and thusly when he clutched his chest and fell over one night during a san diego performance, most of the audience thought it was part of the act. (not his son, who was in the theater, and knew the show).
i also, as a young comic, had the pleasure of meeting mr. shawn one night on the streets of san francisco. i was with a producer who knew him and she introduced me to him as an up and coming comic. of course, i knew who he was, one of the funniest men that never caught on with the public at large (but if you have any doubts, just watch the original film of the producers...it's a shame brooks eliminated shawn's role from the broadway production, it was the cherry on top of the madness of that show).
his advice to me: keep at it, it's hard. he was right.
here's wikipedia's entry on shawn. and, while i have your attention: skippy tee shirts are now on sale!
How 'bout this AP headline:
Prospective Democratic chairs all liberal
Stop the fucking presses! The Dems aren't conservative Republicans!

Yeah, laughed my ass when I saw that.
Speaking of tabloid, there was a big write up in the National Inquirer about the Da Vinci Hype - all the morons with their protests, etc.

NOTHING about the protests and threats against actors' lives being violations of civil rights, but how the Da Vinci hype is fiction.

Candirú
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Can...ki/Candir%C3%
BA
The candirú or canero (Vandellia cirrhosa) or Toothpick Fish is a freshwater fish in the group commonly called the catfishes. It is found in the Amazon River and has a reputation among the natives as the most feared fish in its waters, even over the piranha. The species grows only to a size of an inch in length and is eel shaped and translucent, making it almost impossible to see in the water. The candiru is a parasite. It swims into the gill cavities of other fishes, erects a spine to hold itself in place, and feeds on the blood in the gills, earning it a nickname as the "vampire fish of Brazil".
It is feared by the natives because it is attracted to urine or blood, and if the bather is nude it will swim into an orifice (the anus or vagina, or even in the case of smaller specimens the penis - and perhaps deep into the urethra). It then erects its spine and begins to feed on the blood and body tissue just as it would from the gills of a fish. The candiru is then almost impossible to remove except through an operation. As the fish locates its prey by following the water flow from the gills to its source, urinating while bathing increases the chance of a candiru "homing in" on a human urethra.

Mostly, though, I think she's
pretentious beyond belief.
A faux opera singer trying to rock
out.

It may be true that the majority of Lebanese in the US are Maronites, but I didn't think that held true for the mother counntry so I checked and came across this very interesting cia fact book on the web.

Kirsty MacColl was worth fifty Lennoxes and a million... well, anyones.

Fear leads to anger...
But let's be honest...
The greatest female pop/rock singer of
the last fifty years was Sandy
Denny. And the reason that's not
a universal opinion is because
she was...sorry...too heavy.
If she had been a willow, everybody
would agree she was the greatest.

Was waiting for that, not that I would disagree.
Then, on May 17, Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.) let the news slip out. In the middle of a rambling statement at the outset of a news conference on Capitol Hill, he said -- almost as an aside -- that what happened in Haditha was "much worse than reported in Time magazine." He asserted that the investigations would reveal that "our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them, and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood."
The reporters present barely focused on what Murtha had said. When the congressman finished his statement, the first reporter asked about Iraqi security forces. The second asked about U.S. troop withdrawals. The third asked about congressional support for Murtha's resolution calling for a U.S. pullout from Iraq. Finally, the fourth asked about Haditha. Murtha responded with a bit more detail: "They actually went into the houses and killed women and children. And there was about twice as many as originally reported by Time." Even then, his comments captured little attention and were not front-page news.

Vicki,
Her eyes on the horizon sent me some Tori Amos. Most of it is okay. There is a song though that is pretty good. It is called WINTER. Nice song and nice delivery with a pleasant set of thoughts. The sort of thing that sends my mind awandering.
Don't know enough beyond that to judge.
Is it just me, or is Terry Gross a crappy interviewer?
She's so ... soft.
Vicki, Who ♥ Al Gore
Well, if Randi Rhodes is to your taste, Terry Gross is not what you're looking for. But she does have a way of startling interviewees with questions they weren't expecting, and I've heard her complimented on her interviewing prowess many times. Not to say she's perfect, of course, and I haven't heard her since KPFT dropped Fresh Air, so maybe she's lost it, who knows?
Guilty pleasure = ABBA
Oh yeah, baby. I, uh...have a lot of guilty pleasures. I think pretty much all my pleasures are guilty.
oh, he's running. vicki will make sure of that.
I hope he runs too.
What I would like to see, is that the standard changes from "who is the best candidate?" to "who would be the best at governing the country."
GWPDA and mena,
I think he'll be the best president in over half a century. Better than Clinton. Better than Kennedy. Better than Ike. Better than Truman (I still feel for Truman that he had to make *the* decision - the one which must never, ever be repeated, but so many people don't allow history to be a lesson in steering future decisions).

It appears that the Marine Corps itself has much blame.
As a Times article in tomorrow's edition reminds me, the Marine Corps came in with a guns and glory mentality when it took over control of Anbar Province from the Army in '04.
They thought the Army was pussyfooting around with its hearts and mind talk and leveled Fallujah. 36,000 of the 50,000 homes there were leveled. An Army general commented afterward, "so how are the civilians going to take this when they come back/"

Bingo. In WWII, damn near every move a grunt made was part of a larger plan toward an eventual victory that would be unmistakeable when it came. In Vietnam and Iraq, it's just, get up in the morning, put on your armor, if you have some, and head out to get shot at or blown up, and nobody knows jack shit about no fucking plan. Victory will be when they get home alive.
"You shoot me in the face and I'll kick your ass!"

thanks for that... i couldn't figure out who he was. i see he's canadian, but i think its kinda weird that alannis settled for this guy when there is a softee like simels available.
Speaking of Kate Bush - I think Jenny was mentioning Cloudbusting the other day, and the fey optimism reminds me of this:
But every time it rains,
You're here in my head,
Like the sun coming out--
Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen.
And I don't know when,
But just saying it could even make it happen.
And with that, I'm out. Enjoy Your evenings!
Ronnie Spector has a new album coming out.
Two duets - one with Keith Richards, one with the late Joey Ramone.
In the meantime, pasty writes short stories that no one reads.
I'd read them if only he told me what his intent was first.
I want to see it in PDF form. Notarized. Otherwise I can not take anything you say about ANYTHING seriously.
And check the IP number.
Alanis Morrisette is 5'4''.
Conan O'Brien is 6' 4''.
Richard
i guess i was right on both counts!

Well, I know why MY intent is- to ignore his pretentious, pasty ass for the rest of my natural life.

Alannis is a sharp gal. I was impressed with interviews I've seen of her.
I remember her on Bill Maher right before the 2004 election and she was really on the ball!
does pasty right about young girls, cages, and bears?
Hottest pop babe ever?
Kim or Kelly Deal!
Really, tho, Gwen S.
I want her bad.

Oh, me too, kiddo.
I just go absolutely into jello
when I hear her sing.
"When Will I Be Loved" as a duet
with Linda Thompson.
Or "Solo", from her her first
....er...solo album?
Beyond gorgeous.
i'm off to the aeroport... good night all.
Steve,
Saw Ronnie Spector around when her solo LP came out in 1980 or so. She was totally fucked up. Started to do The Ramones' "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow" and she fell flat on her ass and the show was over in like 5 minutes.
I watched a movie this afternoon about Ike and Tina Turner. Really good. She went through some hell, didn't she.
Sinead does indeed have a beautiful, beautiful voice.

I love her voice, but speaking of nuts......
Alanis Morrisette is 5'4''.
Conan O'Brien is 6' 4''.

What's Love Got To Do With It
Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne.
Tina proved that living well IS the best revenge!
Really, tho, Gwen S.
I want her bad.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Very energetic on stage. Nice belly--I'm sure she'll work off the baby fat in, like, 3 shows.
"Too heavy' singers who were great: Tracy Nelson. Her 7 Bridges Road raises goosebumps.
I love her voice, but speaking of nuts......

She was right about the poop.

If I had to live with Phil Spector for longer than five minutes, I'd be fucked up too!
Supposedly, she's cleaned up her act.
What's Love Got To Do With It
Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne.
Yeah, that was it.
A friend of mine just played me
a CD of Ronnie Spector doing the
Beach Boys "Dont Worry Baby" and
Johnny Thunders "Can't Put Your
Arms Around a Memory."
Produced by Joey Ramone.
Both....uh...gorgeous.
Anybody else ever heard these?
They're amazing!!!!

agave, tired of Texas
I'd love to know what she thinks of the PopenFuhrer.
Pujols is going on the disabled list for up to six weeks? That's a shame.
I always had a crush on Jane Advert.

Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne.
Yeah, that was it.

Angela got nominated for an Oscar.
Alanis Morrisette, circa 1991...

It would be 13" if it was uncut.
Clean sheets.

I've heard that one...fabulous, you're absolutely correct! Btw, res is on the thread upstairs, and she says you didn't show up for something?!
A friend of mine just played me
a CD of Ronnie Spector doing the
Beach Boys "Dont Worry Baby"
That's ironic - didn't Brian Wilson admit that Don't Worry Baby was a straight steal from Be My Baby ?
Brian wrote Be My Baby as he was a Phil Spector acolyte for the Ronettes but they never recorded it.
res ipsa:
You there, kiddo?
Did you not get my message on
your answering machine?

Ronnie Spector's new CD is called "Last Of The Rock Stars."

I'll just have to make a fool of myself & call Audubon......
Marriage is a holey Union I wonder what O'relly's wife thinks of loofas.
Dropped on a dead thread out of, well, pure embarassment to be commenting on such a thing:
BTW, did any one else stand in a grocery store line this weekend and see the tabloid headline that the Lump and the chimp are supposed to be getting divorced?

From Friday's NPS Morning Report:
Mesa Verde National Park (CO)
Special Event: First Lady Visits Park
First Lady Laura Bush visited Mesa Verde National Park from May 23rd to May 26th to help the park celebrate its centennial and to vacation in the park with her close friends. The official event took place in Long House, the park’s second largest cliff dwelling. Approximately 200 invitees attended. The event celebrated Mesa Verde’s livelihood, its placement as the first cultural national park in the nation, and its place in education and protecting and interpreting Native American culture and heritage. The First Lady and her companions enjoyed the park by visiting several pristine cliff dwellings and hiking in the backcountry. Tours of the park’s research center and library were also organized for the First Lady and her friends. The National Park Service was tasked with assisting the Secret Service and the White House Communications Agency during the visit. An in-park incident management team was established to run the event. Approximately 45 people were assigned to the event, including 15 law enforcement rangers and eight members of Intermountain Region’s special events team. In reality, though, every employee in the park had a hand in making the First Lady’s visit a complete success. [Submitted by Jessie Farias Jr., Chief Ranger]
Um, "close friends." And "companions." Hmm, And took 45 people plus WH staff unnumbered to manage this hiking trip. Sure glad it was a "complete success."
