Perhaps a socio economic invective about paigow's subjective place on the food chain and how it might behoove her to develop a case of jungle fever. Or, perhaps a translation along the lines of something involving her, chris and a trip to Hedonism II? I don't know exactly. I just know that this board is not what it used to be, and your laziness is part of the reason. Quantity, not quality. We cannot afford to lose you.

You think too fondly of the past. It's always been the same crap.

And speaking of tits, I saw the movie Swimming Pool (on dvd) this weekend. It's quite good, although funnier (if you know any uptight British women) and not as controversial as it is made out to be. I admire Charlotte Rampling for appearing totally naked (and looking great) in the same movie where for most of the time a 20-year old runs around with her top off.

I'm pretty certain that there was nothing I could do to avoid it, but I do feel sort of bad for the little guy. From my preliminary forensic examination (from a rearview mirror leaving the scene at about 40 mph), he was dead and it was quick.

I can't imagine how I'd feel if I hit a dog or a cat.
I've hit dogs, squirrels, birds, raccoons, deer and opossums. Hitting dogs troubles me. Hitting deer is expensive. Hitting the rest doesn't bother me nearly as much.

I have been told, and it works for me, to honk your horn when you see a squirrel on a suicide mission. THey can process the sound and run from it faster than they can process the speeding object.

Tell that to someone who doesn't care about the future of the board Francis. We know better and deep down so do you but you have let yourself become a rube for the people who think posting links to the news of the day is content. And you have further degraded your bittersweet oeuvre with your constant attacks on Sunny. Let it go man and liberate your muse.

Or keep not caring and kid yourself that its meaningful to wallow in the unfunny crap of the proles.

WARNING - DO NOT READ IF EATING

A tour boat loaded with passengers over the weekend was cruising under a bridge over the Chicago River when the passengers were doused with a brown liquid from above. (The road surface of the bridges here downtown are like large steel latticework grates with thousands of small openings in them.)

Turns out two charter buses crossing the river took the opportunity to empty the raw sewage from their toilets...

We have been reading your work for almost 3400 posts and the only funny thing we recall you saying is "that's like Jack and Diane without the claps" and we suspect that you did not invent that, so when you say "originial", remember Glass Houses.

Also, because we care, if you and Sequels have not yet acquired the joint checking account at Lincoln Park Savings & Loan then there is still time. Remember, unless slave and Less have a tres amigo then the cabelleros are just not gay enough.

--Margaret Cho as her hilarious friend Jill
--Gallagher as her fiance Glenn
--Ted McGinley as the President of the Greek Council and arch-enemy Stan Gable
--dozens and doezens of cats

Apropos of that (and this is, unlike much of my oeuvre, an Absolutely True Story), I stopped the Not Bobmobile on the morning commute to move a turtle out of the road. Rather than pulling its cute little head inside its shell, the turtle hissed and tried to snap my fingers off when I bent down to pick it up, scaring the bejezus out of me, and making the lady in the minivan who stopped behind me laugh.

I screwed my courage up to the sticking point, though, picked up the ungrateful little bastard, and got it out of harm's way.

I think that if there was going to be a race, this turtle would so kick the rabbit's ass at the starting line that it would win by default. And that I should get some serious karmic brownie points for not letting it become roadkill after it tried to eat my hands.

Heh. My brother once rescued a similar turtle from the top of a fence post. Apparently another rescuer had come, found the turtle less than grateful, and decided to teach the turtle a lesson about manners. My brother said it wasn't particularly contrite when he came along and helped it down to the ground.

I didn't know Fringe was festive. Good times.

What: The 11th annual Minnesota Fringe Festival

Quote:

Traditional theater is to the Minnesota Fringe Festival as skim milk is to Red Bull.

What — other than the fact that you can see seven shows in a single day — makes the Fringe Festival so intense? Here's a quick list:

Show titles: The 176 shows in this year's festival have titles that play on pop culture ("If I Don't Marry Davy Jones, I'll Just Die"), that are comical ("Does This Monologue Make Me Look Fat?"), nonsensical ("Please Don't Eat the Dogs") and vaguely obscene-sounding ("A Year in the Life of Slippery Goodstuff"). Where else but the Fringe will you a find a show about artists Salvador Dali, Luis Bunuel and Federico Garcia Lorca with the title "The Great Masturbators"?

Madison playwright John Sable saw potential for comedy and social commentary. His "Audrey Seiler, Where Are You?" was described by a local critic who attended opening night a week ago as "an entertaining romp with Madison's adopted reality television star."

Stooges in color
 
Personally, I don't care whether they're in color or not. They're just not funny.
http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/j/msnbc/Co...1p.hmedium.jpg
Sony’s Columbia TriStar home-video unit is releasing two Three Stooges DVDs that allow viewers to watch the original black-and-white or digitally colorized versions.

Purists consider it desecration, while Sony executives say the process can help introduce Hollywood classics to young audiences reluctant to watch anything in black and white.

The new Stooges DVDs, “Goofs on the Loose” and “Stooged and Confoosed,” contain four shorts each featuring Moe and Curly Howard and Larry Fine.

Roger Ebert says that colorization is a form of vandalism.
Of course, who cares what he thinks?
