Actually, I'm all in favor of a full-blown GA (weekend) nite out. The problem is that the "outing" potential is all too great.

As we are all aware from the articles in NYLJ, Calilaw, etc., these Boards are monitored closely by the media. The last thing we would need is some direputable reporter showing up at the bar of our choosing and start naming names.

I'm sure a small gathering could be organized discreetly in the not-to-distant future, but it would have to be done via e-mail off the Board, and even then there would be a slight risk. That could be alleviated somewhat if people refrain from using their own names.

If anyone is interested in this type of proposal, send me an e-mail and we can discuss further.

You should have PMed me.

Having written nearly 2/3s of those posts myself (NTTAWWT), I could have given you the Cliff Notes version.

Underrated things

A pro pos of nothing, here's a list of underrated things:

The works of Redman, especially in the mid '90s
Stefan Edberg
VH1's Bands on the Run
M.O.P.
Having good kick and punt cover teams
The song "The Majesty of Rock" by Spinal Tap
Good middle relief (real life and fantasy league both)
Showbiz/Sports Kids Moms and Dads
Men at Work's ability to begin and end a song with a bang.

Gotta agree with that.

Down Under fades out. I could never make it to the end of Who Can It Be Now, so I'll have to take your word for it. Did they have other songs?

A Sharpie for the None Too Sharp

Suit: Do you have what I call a "sharpie"?
Secretary: ...what you call a sharpie?
Suit: Yes.
Secretary: ...you and no one else?
Suit: It's like a, a felt-tipped pen.
Secretary: Oh, I know what it is.
Suit: Well, most people don't know what it's called.
Secretary: You're kidding, right? It says it right on the pen.
Suit: Well, do you have one?
Secretary: Yes. Yes, I do. I keep it here in what I call my "drawer".

You are missing the all-important hyphen. By inserting the hyphen ("dog-mauling"), we make it clear that it was mauling by a dog, not mauling of a dog.


(I'm just making this up, so it's probably wrong. But the real Timmys appear to be asleep at the switch, so....)

On the chance there are some of you who don't check this site daily:




Love the shoes.

The commentary is also mildly amusing:

To the good people at coca cola

You are morons.

I was already addicted. You didn't need to do anything further. It was bad enough when you started making diet flavored drinks (lemon and lime, especially, taste terrible, though vanilla isn't anything to brag about) that were similarly packaged as your addictive as hell diet coke product.

But now I have to navigate the diet coke with splenda, and whatever the fuck this Coke zero thing is that is currently in my office.

I just want diet coke. I don't want you to fuck with it. I don't want you to "improve" upon it. I don't want you to try and mess with a good thing. I don't need new flavors. I don't need it to taste like your coca cola product.

Remember what happened when you tried to introduce "new" coke in the 80s? Same shit. Leave it alone, and let it be easy for me to purchase diet coke.

Signed,
A pissed off addict who can't get her fix with this crap

Dear CVS,

Stop carrying the other shit. You're just encouraging them and confusing me.

Signed,
Back to Walgreens
