Special Dispensation

OK. I'm only going to discuss this one time. After this post, I will discuss it no more (unless you bring it up).   First off, I want to clearly point out that Han Shot First. Period.  Anakin Skywalker's ghost at the end of Return of the Jedi should NEVER have been Hayden Christiansen. And …

The Battle of Yavin

Greetings fellow thrifters. If you've been keeping score, you will know that it's 1/2 price Wednesday at the Ohio Thrift Store.And did we score?Oh yes. Yes we did.If you've read this blog before, you know I normally hit the toys first, then the t-shirts, then everything else.Today since it was 1/2 price on all clothes, …

It’s Snot Me

we know of an ancient radiation.that haunts dismembered constellations,a faintly glimmering radio station.while frank sinatra sings stormy weather,the flies and spiders get along together,cobwebs fall on an old skipping record. "Frank Sinatra," Cake.So...it would seem the runaway mucous production has started again. I think that will have to be one of my production companies, Runaway …

Impalas??

OK. I'm only going to ask this once (and I don't really expect an answer)...WTF happened to Henry Rollins?I'm flipping through during commercial breaks of Elaine's new show and her breast wishes dress and I hit IFC. Which I used to think stood for Independent Film Channel. Now I'm pretty sure it means "I'm friggin' …

A Tribute to Limozeen

So...you may recall that I recently got my very first P.O.S. Electric Guitar back. And you may also recall the folly with the "amp" from Freecycle.And now, dear readers, I will let you in on the dramatic conclusion to those harrowing tales.From Bob at work I recently got a Vox Pathfinder 15amp which looks a …

March Madness Comedy Gold

I don't get into March Madness. To me the betting pools are little more than a huge lottery for a sport that I have only a cursory interest in (fantasy baseball leagues are the only thing more baffling to me than MMNCAA brackets).And yet..I was pleased to see as I was channel surfing today, a …

For a Few Dollars More

So I'm on this Z-Pack antibiotic thing...and it seems to be working. Only I'm now seriously considering tracking down some of that mucinex stuff...because damn. My nose has not stopped running for 5 days. I don't know if it's a side effect or what, but it's really annoying. The other sucky part is, blowing my …

Now Hear This

So, apparently some watchdog group in Washington, D.C. is stirring things up by saying that listening to portable music devices at their maximum volume for prolonged periods of time may cause hearing loss.Umm....No Duh.Really?I think they said the same thing when the very first Sony Walkman was introduced in 1979. They probably just get out …

Sickday

Yes. I took a sick day today.Not much else going on today. Sleep. Chicken soup (for the yacking one's soul).More Sleep.There's a new NUMB3RS on tonight, butI'm not sure I can stay up for it. Tonight might be a 'take a dose of nyquil and go to bed early' kind of night.Um. Yeah.

Not much bigger than womprats

So, you wanna hear something funny? I envision throngs of readers coming here every day wanting to know what's going on in my life....what movie I'm making....what the Sundance Acceptance Committee actually said to me and what latest bit of Bizarro Americana will I find at the thrift store. Ain't delusions grand?No, don't ruin the …
