Vincent "Greezy" Gallo, perchance?

No. He compares favorably - he's a golden god in relative terms.

They will never let him back into Gross Pointe.

Different guy, but it's kind of cute the way you keep track of my squeezes.

Listen, we've all been watching this happen for a while now, but no one wanted to be the first to say it: these days Flower only comes around to be a hater. It's sad, but until he learns to love himself all he's got to offer is negativity.*

You've been doing so well with the whole "nice" thing so far, and I for one have been quietly rooting you on. Just leave him alone for a while. The last thing we want to see is you getting sucked into Flower's little self-referential vortex of gloom, ok?

He'll snap out of it one day and we'll all have a good laugh, I swear.

*Not positivity. And we gotta strive for longevity.

Some call me negative. But they're not positive.

Ironweed, my friend, you've long been the little engine pulling the Flower-hating train. And this has never bothered me because I am happy for whatever small glimmer of self worth you are able to eke out of this role. This and your soccer fantasies probably give you just enough of an illusion of a sense of identity to motivate you to drag yourself out of bed in the morning. So you just keep chugging along and don't worry about me. I'll continue to passively participate in your delusional exercise in self-worth actualization - no questions asked.

Peace.

Love.

Flower.

My ex-boyfriend who is a film critic for the Village Voice, rated the Brown Bunny as the #3 film of 2004. I just found that out yesterday. Why do I fuck these crazy people?

The guy is like David Arquette - he intentionally dresses like a complete idiot. Luckily, David can hang his hat on his acting skills.

And David appears to shower at least semi-regularly. Does Kevin have a tranny brother?

Because Flower tells you to?

I won't argue on the butt-chin and the eye-fucking, but Constantine's no fatty. He's got a weird under-chin thing going on, granted, but he's otherwise on the tall side (see how he towers over Ryan Seacrest) and rather lanky.

Squicky though he may be, he nailed his performance this week. Queen was the perfect choice--Constantine is in many ways a straight Freddie Mercury. Ethnic, attention whore, intense presence, quirky-yet-somehow-attractive appearance (Freddie's buck teeth, Constantine's chin issues), great pipes (don't think he's quite on Freddie's level in this department, but still). I should have taped the show, because I wouldn't mind seeing him do that song again.

I wasn't shocked to see Bo in the bottom three this week--he's been kind of mailing it in for the last few weeks. Scott Savol once again got a huge gift--he deserved to be eliminated more than anyone except for Anthony. Nadia is lovely, but not vocally up to snuff. She went home earlier than she deserved to, but only by two or three weeks at most.

Anwar needs to keep going in the direction he's heading, of greater feeling in the music. He really does have a great instrument--huge range and flexibility, well-centered pitch--he just needs to connect better with the audience.

The only performance I caught was Constantine's and I thought it was a really excelent karaoke performance. I saw the clips and Carrie looked dreadful and Vonz looked irritating.

I cant believe I now have to start calling in every week. PITA. And Bo should be banned from singing Remedy. He cant touch Chris Robinson. He could probalby improve upon the Drive By Truckers though.

Yes, I really enjoyed his work in those soda commercials.

You dated Michael Musto?

Brown Bunny sounds like a description that Sebby might use.

Speaking of David arquette, his wife might be ready to see the Boss again. someone should give str8 a heads up- should be an easy sale.

Not if she's seen Wonk's financials.

point is- she should be afraid you'll show her your valuables.

That last bit about acting skills... That was irony, right?

No. He is not "the" critic. Just one of the many freelancers.

This from someone who is willing to fuck his sister to get his Dad's coin collection?

Oh, and thanks for explaining your earlier post. I hadn't picked up on that.
