Oh great, more fodder for the Catholic-bashers. ;)

There are some situations for which the resulting explanations can, at the very best, bring you back to even, or, at the very worst, answer the question of "are you getting any" all by themselves, negatively, but they can never really foster a true improvement in your life. I suspect that was one of those.

Five's Alive?
 
I occassionally share odd sites that I have visited. Well, I recently signed up for the "Top5" newsletter, which is modeled after the Washington Post's Style Invitational (i.e., the site poses a question, people email their entries, the site selects and posts the "winners"). In fact, many of the Style winners actively participate in the Top5 contests.

What follows is yesterday's question, and the top 18 entries.

The Top 18 Signs It's Time for Your Rock Band to Retire

18. No longer able to "Rock and Roll All Night" without an entire case of Viagra.

17. Ever since Strom left the band for a career in politics, the sound just hasn't been the same.

16. Your lead guitarist switches to Heroin P.M. so that those after-concert parties don't keep him awake all night.

15. You're still considered a hair band, but now it's because of your ears and noses.

14. Instead of saying "Good night, Cleveland!" at the end of your set, you scream, "Honey! It's time for my sponge bath!"

13. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hanson, but it seems you've hit puberty."

12. Then: You freaked out on-stage because of the drugs you took.
Now: You freak out on-stage because of the drugs you *forgot* to take.

11. "Shooting up" didn't used to involve an enema.

10. Old band logo: picture of giant red lips.
Current band logo: picture of giant sagging man-boobs.

9. Biting the head off a bat now requires corporate sponsorship from Super Poly-Grip.

8. The only people making bootleg tapes at your concerts are from the Smithsonian.

7. Your songs are blocked from Napster -- not by your record company's request, but because they suck.

6. Then: You instructed security to screen the crowd for sweet young things willing to put out for the band.
Now: You instruct security to screen the crowd for sweet young things who are willing to to pre-chew all those green M&M's for the band.

5. You stop outdoor concerts to take a garden hose to the young hooligans who won't get off the lawn.

4. The band refuses to make a video because they're convinced that the cameras will steal their souls.

3. Bad: Your groupies drag their oxygen tanks to the stage to admire your alligator-skin pants.
Worse: You forgot to put on any pants.

2. [reminding me of the FB thread on a similar topic] Nowadays when your fans throw their panties on stage, it looks like the Fifth Airborne parachuting into Normandy.

and the Number 1 Sign It's Time for Your Rock Band to Retire...

1. The hot babe in the first row just lifted her skirt -- to show you her breasts.

The site's address, appropriately enough, is http://www.topfive.com

So would be it be fair to say that your wife doesn't have a sense of humor? :P

Oh, she laughs all the time.

Well, okay, not ALL the time - mostly just when we're in bed together.

(And I'm starting to take it personally.)

Mr. PJ knows and thinks it's rather nuts, or sad. I told him if he wanted to dish celebrity whore gossip and assorted other lurid trash with me I'd be glad to, but then he showed not the slightest interest in discussing whether, given the pink Pepto-Bismol dress and her photo in the latest People Magazine, Christina Aguilera's been snarfing one too many Cheetos lately or is simply knocked up (and by whom).

Not even the revelation that Elvis Presley's daughter claims to have actually had genuine sex with Michael Jackson moved him spiritually. Unbelievable.

You're watching the MJ's home movies on TV tonight. Admit it.
You can't help yourself.

Two hour show. Fox - 8:00 E/7:00 C/8:00 P

Sensitive Guy knows. He benefits from the bits of info that I pass on to him from this source, so he doesn't mind. Like spookyfish, I don't actually know anyone here, so he just sees it as a good source for wacky tidbits. He has his own boards that he views (related to music and software and such).

n(how is that NJ chick still around on the Bachelor? missed it again last night so I don't know if she has exhibited any redeeming qualities to date)cs

What kind of beneficial info? The proper tux, how a suit should fit, or how to give a good BJ?

My SO knows and cannot fathom how I have so much time to waste, er, spend on the Board. He also does not understand why I thrash about in my sleep, alternately grinding my teeth and calling out "settle down Francis!"

P.S. I don't think he'd approve of my sending a pic of my pups for breasticle day redux, but like Anne says, a girl's gotta have some secrets.

I am not, goddamn it.

I think that's the stuff I already watched last week.

p(and frankly, the sight of Michael getting kissed on the lips by a fan scared the hell out of me--I was afraid they were fake like his nose is and they'd just fall right off like those wax Halloween lips...)j

Come on , the man is not that freaky. In fact this show will probably be boring. I don't know why MJ feels he needs to show us how normal and compassionate he is.

OF course, I am pregnant with my first daughter who I plan to name Princess Paigow Princess I. But thats just me.

edited to indicate that Princess Paigow PRincess is "the First"

Caveat for the Catholic-bashers: She's not a Catholic priest. And the genital self-discovery is not penile in nature.
