You certainly remember a lot about Amadeus!

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

Good guess.


For some reason that makes me think of Bob and Doug McKenzie talking with Guy LaFleur and thinking that LaFleur meant the lion or something --

I would use LaFleur as a screen-name but PLF's avatar kitty would probably back up and anal-spray me (after lifting the fru-fru little dress, of course).

Well, I don't really need to press the issue right now. I'm just figuring that it's likely to be quite a while before this topic comes back around for discussion here.

But when the time comes, I'll be sure to cite you and tmdiva.

I learned everything I need to know about Mozart from Falco.

You've got to rock me Amadeus!

Alright, missy.

Nonsense. You haven't seen opposing counsel tremble before me.

C'mon, Penske, tell her about that time in Muncie. You remember, before we went out to celebrate that evening and you blacked out while in the company of that goat.

Bit of a subject change, but I have a new favorite spot for fajitas -Tele's in Rhonesboro, TX,* in the building that was home to the now-defunct Coon's Landing. A simple, clean family owned place, the serving sizes are generous, the prices are more than reasonable, and the fresh tortillas are the best I've ever had. The fluffy refried beans are delicious on a chip or by themselves on a fork. I highly recommend it should you find yourself in BFEast Texas. Warning: No alcohol! Stock up in Big Sandy or Gladewater.


* About 10 miles west of Gilmer on Highway 154, Pop. 75, home of the World Famous Rhonesboro Possum Festival - you haven't lived until you've seen the proud and ample Possum Queen riding in the back of of her bf's pickup, waving to the "crowd" and chainsmoking Marlboro Reds. Was that a possum tattooed on her thigh?

Apparently, I learned everything I needed to know about Mozart from Coppola.

Did Bram Stoker plagiarize "Dracula" from the libretto to Mozart's "Don Giovanni"?

Is it just me, or is everyone getting a little tired of this plagiarism witch hunt?

Trembling? Why? Are they trying not to laugh?

A propos of nothing, I'm getting quite tired of this witch hunt for plagarizers.

No. And a return question: Is this why the kid named "Sue" in Swingers was packing?

Speaking of... On the VH1 one hit wonders show, I learned that Falco died in an accident (car, I believe) in the Dominican Republic in 1998.

YOU worry too much. One less thing for your KID to worry about? Come on. If you think that way, you won't know when to stop removing obstacles for him or her.

I take my kid to the playground every weekend. It amazes me how many pansy ass parents won't let their kids experience what they will be experiencing soon enough when they aren't around. All I hear from these parents is, "Don't let him use that, that's yours," and "Hey! My daughter was going to get in that swing, she was headed right for it and YOU ran ahead of her!" or "Don't run, you might fall down!" I'm not implying that my kid is a bully (quite the contrary -- my child hands toys over to other kids when they come and try to snatch them and I let it happen because why rush the idea of "mine mine mine" -- but I digress).

To sum up: If you like the name, give them the name. Spending time trying to figure out which life experience your child should have or avoid shouldn't start before the little fucker is even born. But I'm a learn-as-you-go kind of guy.

Are you bragging or complaining?

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

Whoa whoa whoa. I don't have any kids, and I certainly don't stay up all night planning the rest of their lives for them, nor do I presume to think that I can mold their life experience through the force of my will. What I don't understand is why people would want to name their kids something stupid. It seems to me that that's more about the parents' egos than the kid. If you want to name your kid Eustace and Picayne, you are more than welcome to. I just don't see why.

Maybe because the parents are stupid and their stupidity prevents them from knowing any better. Didja ever think of that smart guy? Did you ever think that you are lucky to have an IQ in double digits but not all of these poor slobs, on this board or otherwise, are so lucky.

There but for the grace of Zoroaster and a lack of stupidity go you. You should be a little more humble and a lot more thankful.

Reincarnating a thread from last year, yesterday's Washington Post had an extensive article, indeed anexposé, of the NJ Guido culture.

A choice excerpt:

"The summer months give shape and meaning to [Anthony] Moussa's life. This is when he parties hardest, staying up to see the dawn. This is when he comes to the Jersey Shore with his buddies and fixes his hair and hits the nightclubs and admires the girls, again and again tipping back the sweet, fruity shot he calls life.

This is when Anthony Moussa achieves the fullest expression of his guido self. This is when he becomes The Moo."

I didn't realize so many of you had funny names. My apologies.

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

No harm, no foul. FWIW, fyi, for the record, my name is pretty average (my parents were not stupid...well, not that stupid), but I felt badly for Thurgreed, Flower and some of other "Sues" on the board, whom you were inadvertantly insulting.

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

Although, I would agree that it is arguable in many cases, I think I'll still respond to this by saying that some people probably think names you think are stupid are not.

Pussy advice
 

Hah! Made you look ;)

Serious question, since yesterday an odd thing has been happening with my cats. In the past the bigger one who is about 15 lbs has dominated the smaller one who is about 7 lbs. Well, starting yesterday the most amazing yowling, hissing, odd kitty noises have come out of the little one's mouth. She is chasing the big one around the house, whacking at her, literally cornering her. She actually trapped her in the bedroom closet.

One person suggested I get a water gun and squirt the little one when she is behaving like this which I plan on doing, but has anyone ever experienced a role reversal like this in their pets before?

It's a little freaky.

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

Hey, I didn't know. I'm sorry, I am clearly in the minority here anyway. Name away. I just hate seeing baby announcements from my friends with just the funniest names, that were clearly an effort to be different. Well guess what, they certainly were.

Your tender concern for others is one of your most winning qualities Penske. Unless it's just a quality you're lifting from one of your socks.

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

I agree. And my tastes are suspect anyway. I still say no to Wilbert and Ernestine. I am adamant about that.

Pussy advice
 

Is little pussy much younger than big pussy? Maybe little pussy is finally coming into em's own?

Are they the same sex? Even neutered/spayed cats have been known to show some signs of "heat."

When was the last time that big pussy was checked by a vet? Sometimes a sick pussy will be attacked by its pussy-pals.

Or, your pussies could just be playing. What appears painful to you could merely be harmless pussy-play.

The Fashion of Baby Names
 

Obviously people who think that way are stupid, and as such their thoughts lack validity. Sorry, but just remember, apropros of none of this, Penske Loves You Too.

Pussy advice
 

They are both pretty old. One is 13 and one is 10. They are the same sex and though it would be amusing, I do not think they are lesbians.

I am thinking if it doesn't stop in a couple of days I will take both pussies to the vet. It seemed to happen after I gave big pussy but not little pussy a bath. Perhaps little pussy thinks big pussy is vulnerable. I have noticed that big pussy seems to have slowed down a bit over the past year or so. Maybe she is just getting older and little pussy has had enough of being pushed around.

I don't think they are just playing, because big pussy looks terrified and quite confused.


Oh and yes, they are nuetered.

And yet another death
 

INDIANAPOLIS — Estel Wood "Ed" Kelley, co-chairman of The Steak 'n Shake Co. (SNS) and a food industry executive credited with introducing Americans to brands such as Tang, Grey Poupon mustard and Cool Whip, has died. He was 86.
