But anyway. My parish (an urban Irish Catholic parish that likes to party) will probably be showing the game on the big TV in the social hall, with pizza, beer, wine, snacks for the kids, etc. And there'll probably be thirty or forty people there, maybe as many as gather at the little tavern on the corner.

It's about community, about social life, not about worship. The parish throws wine & cheese parties for newcomers, organizes buses to baseball games, has barbecues on the lawn, & all sorts of stuff like that; why not have some of the gang over for the big game?

GravatarSeriously, people have been sold a bill of goods. Especially women. They all expect to meet that special someone and go off into the sunset of a perfect life. It just doesn't work that way, despite what a half hour sitcom tells us. People just smell bad sometimes and don't always behave as they should. I'm not saying you should settle for just anyone, but if the love is there, it is worth working through the pitfalls.


GravatarI mean Caine. Kane had adventures, but he had lots of money.


Gravatarwatertiger - I developed a theory years ago - it involved a duplex with a one-way doggie door that you could push the kids through and lock whenever you had enough.


GravatarAmerican Figure skating has gone to the dumps. The TV audience is 25% of what it was ~ 4 years ago. People are blaming it on all the 'Made-4-TV" pro extravaganzas that are on all the time. Me, I still enjoy having the camera closely follow a 16 YO girl in a tiny skirt skating around, bent over for 20 seconds before spinning in the air and landing on her tush in an icy explosion. But I am a rare patron of the fine arts.

we don't have to take this shit lying down. even when we know we'll lose in the end.

The whole town showed up and afterward, a wine bar was opened in side the church. Two doors were opened, a table set up in the doorway and two young ladies sold glasses of wine.

That was pretty damn nice.

But how do you fall in love with somebody that smells bad?


GravatarI have friends who've managed to stay married by living in two different cities for about 10 years now.

Starting on year four, and really need to pull the plug on this. Been draggin' my feet because I can't figure out what's equitable with respect to retirement funds, if any. Currentlly sending her more of my paycheck than is reasonable and that's only doable since I'm living with my aunt and mother. That's gotta change, though. Another bullet I'm reluctant to bite.

Now of course they will have people who disagree, but to be the actual person who tapes the sermon and then sends it to the IRS? You would be kicked out of the community. And most people don't want that, especially if they joined the church.

GravatarI witnessed a spectacular figure skating crash once. When my kid was into skating, we went to one of those pro skating exhibitions. A pair were skating and they lost their balance. The girl landed face first on the ice and got up with blood pouring down her forehead, looking like she was in WWE Smackdown. When they came out for their bows at the end of the program, she had a big hunk of white gauze taped to her dome.

GravatarThousands of people have protested in Madrid against negotiations between Spain's government and Eta, a Basque separatist group.

Organised by the Foro Ermua group, Saturday's march was backed by the opposition Popular Party (PP).

Mariano Rajoy, the PP's leader, and Jose Maria Aznar, a former prime minister, attended.

The crowd shouted slogans calling for the resignation of Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, the socialist prime minister.

An Eta ceasefire ended last December when a bomb blast in at Madrid airport killed two Ecuadorians. The attack led the government to cancel a nine-month-old peace process.

GravatarA truck bomb has exploded in a food market in a predominantly Shia area of Baghdad, killing at least 130 people and wounding more than 300 others.

The attacker was driving a truck carrying food on Saturday when he detonated his explosives, destroying shops and stalls that had been set up in the busy outdoor Sadriyah market, police said, giving the casualty toll.

Officials said nearby hospitals were being flooded with victims from the blast.

The blast occurred at 4.40pm as the market was crowded with people buying food for their evening meal.

You got that right Jennifer. At Eschacon the chick were ALL over him. Like white on rice. (Can I say that?)


GravatarSpocko, since you asked so nicely:

bouef bourgignon a la moi-meme
DETAILS! Can you cook it with out a Crockpot?


Yes, you can. Any big ol' stew pot that you can put on the back burner and let cook real slow all afternoon will do fine.

Here we go.

a pound or two of boneless short ribs (I've got 1.5 in today's stew)
some cabernet
some beef stock
a clove or two of garlic
an onion or two
two or three stalks of celery
a pound of sliced mushrooms
a bay leaf
thyme
worcestershire sauce

Chop the onions & garlic. Slice the celery stalks. Sweat those together in a big covered pan until the onions are transparent and the celery slices start to wilt. Throw 'em in the stew pot with the sliced mushrooms.

Cut up the short ribs into more or less bite-sized pieces and brown them in the big covered pan. Throw them into the pot, too, along with the juice from the pan.

Some people would prefer not to use the pan juice -- there's a lot of fat there. If so, adjust the quantity of beef stock accordingly.

Add maybe half a cup of beef stock (I like the stock that comes in packages like juice boxes) and about a generous glass of the cabernet. Throw in the bay leaf, a dash of worcestershire, a shake of thyme.

Put the cover on the pot and let it cook on the lowest setting all afternoon. If it boils, the fire's too hot. Taste the sauce every once in a while and add more wine or worcestershire if you think it needs it. Salt & pepper to taste.

I'm going to serve this over mashed potatoes 'cause I like it like that. It's also good over noodles.

Mr. QL & I will share a bento box.

So he calls me at work yesterday from DE and tells me he has to stay an extra day cause he just can't wake up. He tells me he fell asleep at the table drinking coffee. So, I say okay, check in later. And he doesn't. Take the phone to bed with me and get up at 3:00 a.m. worrying why he hasn't called, but don't want to call him cause I'm afraid of waking him up. By 9:30 I was dressed and ready to hop on Amtrak to see if he was still alive. I had imagined he had stroked out, had a heart attack, something.

Nope he calls, all chipper, he felt better by 9 last night and stayed up most of the night and just finished a little nap. What he also neglected to tell me was that he was falling asleep drinking coffee because he hadn't slept at all the night before. Grrrrrrrrr.

Gravatarwhen I was in Switzerland I tripped over a railway line.

see over there you can wonder across the railtracks up in the mountains, and they have these jagged teeth which pull up the train up the mountain.

anyways my dad and I had come back from a difficult walk and had suffered a awful bus ride to the station.

so for some reason we decided to rush, my foot got caught on the jagged teeth, threw me forwards so i bashed my knee aganst the mental bar and fell back against the jagged teeth.

GravatarOK, if Moon gets to tell her morphine story, I get to tell mine.

When I broke my ankle and finally, hours later, got to G/town Hospital, I managed to convince the doctor that I was in real pain and he was about to order morphine for me. He asked what I did and I told him that I was a lawyer. Jokingly (hahaha) he told the nurse, "Let her wait." Son: "I'm a lawyer, too." D-i-L: "Me, too. A prosecutor." Doctor: "OK, morphine coming right up." It sure did make the pain stop right away.


Gravatarso I in so much pain, I could not walk without it causing me well pain.

i was a crying so much and my dad was trying to calm me down.

so i was taken on a strecther to the station master's office while he rang up for assistance, so me on the stretcher was screwed to the floor of the train and was taken down to Wengen, so we were then picked up by a ambulance and ferried to the local doctors.


GravatarYes, spocko, just ask for boneless beef short ribs.

I was taken to a examination room and by this time I need to have a wee, so i asked for one of those kidney shaped bowls to relive myself.

the doctor came in and said i would be in for overnight observation and they would discuss whether i was going to have surgery on my knee or not.

Bitch, bitch, bitch...

Come over to my house. It's about 65 out. We can eat leftover chinese on the balconey.


Gravatarso next day I am in bed, knee in some sort of block to keep it still, I have not eaten in 24 hrs as they were not sure whether they would have to operate on my knee and put pins in.

luckily they decided I was young and fit enough that it would heal without surgery.

so the day after I was put in a caste and had to have physiotherapy to get me used to being in crutches.


Gravatari found out I had managed to rip a bit of bone out of the centre of my knee, fracture it and snapped two of my ligaments.


GravatarWalMart religions disgust me.

I'm actually considering converting from Costcoan (Reformed) to Ace Hardwarism, primarily because I've seen Alejandro Escovedo at my local Ace Hardware twice. I think that's a good sign. He's a deep kinda dude.

I don't even know if "starchily" is a word.


Gravatarhere it is again, for anyone who got the scroll-troll message last time I posted the recipe:
Bouef bourgignon a la moi-meme

1 or maybe 2 pounds boneless beef short ribs; a pound or so sliced mushrooms; an onion or two; a clove of garlic or two; two or three stalks of celery; some cabernet or whatever red you've got hanging around; some beef stock; thyme, worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, salt & pepper to taste.

Chop the onions, mince the garlic, slice the celery; sweat them in a big covered pan until the onions are transparent and the celery's starting to wilt. Throw them into the crock pot or stew pot along with the mushrooms.

Cut the short ribs into bite-size pieces. Brown them lightly in the big covered pan; throw them into the pot along with the pan juice. (Some people would rather not use the pan juice because of the fat; if so, adjust the amount of beef stock accordingly.)

Add about half a cup of beef stock and a generous glass full of cabernet; the bay leaf, a dash or two of worcestershire sauce, a shake or two of thyme.

Let it stew gently all afternoon; if it boils, turn down the heat. Taste the sauce every once in a while & add more wine or worcestershire. Salt & pepper to taste.

I serve it on a bed of mashed potatoes; you might like noodles. Serve with green salad & more red wine.

There! Did that work?!?!

GravatarMy theory about NASCAR is this: all the fans are relatives (even if distantly related) to the drivers.

I know I didn't get hugely interested in NASCAR until my sister's nephew started racing. Then you end up watching to see if he's going to make it the entire race. He started two Busch races last year and finished only one. In the second race, he had a raft of problems, ending with contact with a wall and a concussion.

So there's that morbid fascination with wondering if a relative's going to end up like Dale Earnhart Sr., in addition to all the other stuff going on.

GravatarAnd in a few years when the movie is redone with George Lucas' help, all the solders will be carrying walkie-talkies.

And the Nazi Deathstar will be destroyed in a double explosion. And Hitler shoots first.


GravatarSaving Private Ryan had a explosive first 15 mins and the rest of the film was shite.

Same thing with "Saving Ryan's Privates."


Gravataractually my fav movie to do with a WW2 setting is Kelly's Heroes, never get tired of watching it.


GravatarDuring my first semester of grad school, I had two female Americans in my flat as well.

Good times were had by all.

GravatarSPR had an explosive first 15 mins AND an explosive last 15 mins. And the rest of it was shite. Thin Red Line? Experiment gone wrong. Too much stunt casting, and I preferred the book.


GravatarFrom "Back to School"

Kellerman: ...most of the men I meet
go out of their way to show you
how sensitive they are. Before they were too macho, and now they're too soft. You all want us to know you can cry.

Yep. I've been drinking loads of fizzy water. And had soup a couple days back. And a sammich today.

Saving Private Ryan had a explosive first 15 mins and the rest of the film was shite.

I liked The Thin Red Line a lot better.


I like both films very much.


GravatarAnd the Nazi Deathstar will be destroyed in a double explosion. And Hitler shoots first.

Himmler will also be CGIed instead of being played by an actor in a cape. And they'll use different music during the "Party at the Eagle's Nest" scene.


GravatarThe Dirty Dozen is another WW2 based movie I sort of enjoy.


GravatarC'mon "The Great Escape" is the bestest WWII movie ever.


GravatarI liked The Thin Red Line a lot better.

I liked the two equally for different reasons. Ryan was cool because the cranked frame rate and crushed colors, which made it chaotic and strangely realistic in the combat scenese, even though I didn't dig the plot. Red Line is just gorgeous and lush, with such a philosophical, thoughtful feel with the narrative.


Gravatarheh Channel 4 here a few weeks back was running down the top 50 war movies.


GravatarYou're gonna make her cross....

"You wooden't like me when I'm cross."

Three Kings is a rather good movie IMHO>

I like this one a lot as well, though after reading the book I wish someone would make another version much truer to the novel.

It would, however, be something that one would have to do on HBO or such. Maybe a 3 1/2 hour movie could do it.


GravatarC'mon "The Great Escape" is the bestest WWII movie ever.

yes, and the assclown who has the office kitty-cornered to mine insists on reenacting the Steve McQueen solitary confinement scene, only he uses a freakin' softball.

The movie with Clint Eastwood's highest body count.


GravatarI liked Saving Private Ryan (which surprised me). And The Dirty Dozen is good.

Then, of course, there's Casablanca, a fantastic WWII movie.

And I love African Queen, a great WWI film.


Gravatar yes, and the assclown who has the office kitty-cornered to mine insists on reenacting the Steve McQueen solitary confinement scene, only he uses a freakin' softball.

Bring in some barbed wire so he can reenact the more famous scene.


GravatarThree Kings is like an unofficial remake of Kelly's Heroes but with a moral element.

I fucking love that movie, though it's a bit...quaint now. Same style of overcranked frame and crushed colors as in Ryan.

GravatarNever heard this expression -- "crushed colors". Did you make it up? I liked that, too, in any case.
