No. MJ's worm food, Quincy will ascend directly and corporeally into heaven. Pay 'tention.

And the horns on Stevie Wonder's "Do I Do" are pretty damn cool.

That's sweet. Housekeeping must either like you or think you have too many soda cans in the trash. Or some combination.

On a related note, I gave up cola last month and am drinking tons of water instead. Fierce headaches for the first week or so but now just the occasional fierce craving for caffeine, especially if I haven't had enough sleep.

Michael Jackson came to my place of employment once (probably about 2002 or 2003) and had a meeting with the Chairman (not Sinatra). Anyway, a TON of people (employees -- myself included, embarrassingly enough) were crowded around that floor and on the staircase to catch a glimpse of him when he left the CEO's office and when he did, everyone clapped and was wide-eyed about seeing him. His son was with him, and was as blonde as McCauley Culkin (or whatever that kid's name was) -- that was a little weird.

Lots of famous people had meetings with the chairman, but the only one that caused such a big stir was Michael Jackson.

I don't remember, was that pre- or post- pederasty case?

I'm sure some people here are inured to a celeb in the office (you know who you are), but the funniest similar occassion I've seen was for Liv Ullman. It was about a dozen years ago, she was probably 60 (but still looked great), and I do believe that every male partner did a walk-by the conference room and that the elevator bank had at least 20 balding men in their 50s and 60 looking to exit at the same time she did. Most looking at their shoes. She had a cute daughter, not so glamorous.

Good times!

in my ex-aunt's last big movie role, she walked in the house and her movie-son spluged on her.

It took me a few reads to understand what I think you are saying here. At first, I didn't know what you meant by "spluged" but my hank-to-English translation program believes that you mean "splooged" (that's how they spell it in the OED).

So, are you saying that in the last movie your ex-aunt acted in, her character in that movie was favored with a sample of the semen of the character that was playing her son in said movie? Can we assume that the semenlike substance was merely a prop and not the real thing?

Thanks for sharing, Hank!

And here I thought he meant "spluged" as in the Nickelodeon-bucket-of-green-slime sense, and that he was trying to tell us that his famous ex-family members were actually part of wacky, somewhat over-the-top family programming.

This wide room for varying interpretations may underlie many of Hank's frustrations about how noone understands what the fuck he really is trying to say, but OTOH I suppose he can take solace in the many possible readings of his work for which the true artiste strives.

Great prop to have when you're banging an ugly girl doggy style and can't quite finish. Just fake the "O" sounds and throw the splooge prop on her back and go to sleep.

C'mon, who hasn't done this?

I just checked the urban dictionary (come on, dtb, Hank and the OED?), and they posit that "spluge" is the verb and "splooge" the noun.

Hank seems to know whereof he speaks in this circumstance.

thank you. and conf to dtb:

no dtb, it wasn't an XXX, and your analysis was too cruel for an ex #1 friend, and the splooge was some hollywood recipe- it was a movie most of have seen, or at least you've seen one of the series, and, even if I wasn't right, a "hank spells poorly" post is beneath you. or i should say, it was beneath the 2005 dtb.

Oh, no, dear Hankie. It wasn't the spelling "error" -- who knows with these kinds of words? It was genuine befuddlement as to what you were trying to convey. But isn't the fact that I understood you despite your possibly opaque sentence formation proof that our #1 status is destiny?

Insane drive scene
 
http://www.vimeo.com/757553

Chef may like this. Back in 1978, some French director was unable to obtain a permit to film a scene where he drives like a madman through the streets of Paris, so he does it anyway without permission. "He drove through the streets of Paris at five in the morning, through red lights, around the Arc de Triomphe, down the Champs-Élysées, against one-way traffic, over sidewalks, at speeds up to 140 miles per hour. The film ends after nine terrifying minutes when the driver parks the car in Montmartre and a blonde comes up the stairs toward Sacre Coeur. (It was a date.) After the first showing, the director was arrested for endangering public safety." http://www.slate.com/id/2221388/pagenum/2
