Between this and your earlier account of running with the skinheads in your youth, Thrasher, I'm starting to get this picture of you being (not stupid, mind you) like the Forrest Gump of the seamy side of modern society. Waiting anxiously to hear your tales of:

1. Your carefree days in the porn industry performing as Fanny Thrasher...
2. Debaucherous evenings when the Merchant Marines hit port...
3. Crack and opium dens you've known...
4. Riding with the Hell's Angels...

and numerous other sordid activities that even I of all people can't comprehend. When are the memoirs coming out??

Hot or Not
 
I'm in a random mood. Just a couple comments (and a question):

Hot stuff on the board today: Atticus calling Bridge of Love a motherf***ing punk. Swoon.

Not so hot stuff on the board today: Shape Shifter quoting Sally Field. WTF? That's just too weird.

And has anybody else ever wondered about Burt Reynolds? Loni, I get the allure, but Sally Field and Dinah Shore?

Daniel Patrick Moynihan is still alive.

What's next? George W. Bush on the $1.00 bill?

I thought Moynihan was dead, but was too lazy to Google it. Thanks, RP.

Oh, and speaking of Reagan, I don't even have him on my "next ex president to die" watch. I think he will linger on like this for some time. I think that either Carter or Ford will knock off first. Any takers?

I've already taken Ronnie, sometime shortly after Bob Hope died. So, sure.

Ford wasn't looking so hot at the 2000 convention. Carter seems to be hanging in there. I'm amazed that RWR has lived so long given his meeting with a bullet, cancer, and the like.

"The RIAA said that while it has not yet filed lawsuits in its current campaign, 'we assure you that we will approach these suits in a fair and equitable manner.'"

When you apply a weasel-to-english translator, this appears to mean "we sue who we want when we want for what we want, bwah hah hah hah."

Did the RIAA hire Enron's publicity outfit by chance?

Sally Field in "Smokey and the Bandit" was very cute. Plus, that movie ranks up there as one of the best bad movies. It's not in "Roadhouse" territory of course, but then what is?

I love SatB. Jackie Gleason is in classic form. Of course, the movie and its beer-running premise lost some of its oomph when everyone realized that Coors beer SUCKS!

Thoughts.

Gerald Ford is circling the drain. Reagan died years ago and has undergone the Walt Disney treatment as part of Nancy Reagan's ongong freak show.

Coltrane had the most unhot comment of the day. It caused me to shift my crush. And I quote "I almost peed my pants...". Men do not "pee", They piss, or take a leak or whizz, but they do not pee. Women and children pee. That's just the way it is. I had a picture of some knockneed, gawky boy with his hands covering just under his crotch while his eyes batted.

To whoever nuked the popcorn as I sit here craving incredible chocolate, which cannot be purchased in DC, FUCK YOU, havent you eaten enough today? Dont get the grease all over the documents!

Britney Spears' "career" is circling the drain. Ship her back to Tuscaloosa or whatever trailer park she came from. The black eyebrows and bleached hair will feel right at home. Its enough already. She is the mojito of bad music.

Sharon Stone is chasing the beauteious Oliver Hudson. I thought I was too old for him, and she looks decrepit. Maybe I should get me some of this sexual peak action. Where at Georgetown U do the lacrosse players hang out?

And where are the balloon, booze and blow?

I watched a "best of" video while in LS - forget who the actress was - but one of the scenes featured her on a ufo being probed by aliens. The costumes were about what you'd expect from a porn special effects budget. The aliens were basically dudes in green makeup with bouncy antenna-thingies on their heads. In the pre-viagra era. One of the finest examples of true professionalism I have ever witnessed.

I tend to agree, but together we'll have to take on the AP style manual.

Ex-Guard Sentenced for Peeing on Inmates
"A DNA expert testified that urine samples taken from the jail roof could be linked to Hastings."

Now, if you'll excuse me, I guess I'm going to have to scrub my firm's coffee pot with bleach and club soda.

It was a typo. It was suppose to say "I'm almost pooed my pants"...

Plus, "I almost drained the main vein" doesn't send the same message. That's intentional pissing. I was referring to involuntary pissing.

And stop picturing me draining my hog. It's creepy.

Aug. 19 — The Princeton Review is releasing the 2004 edition of “The Best 351 Colleges,” a guide to help college applicants decide which school might suit them best. The book includes rankings about everything from the academics to the food.

TOP PARTY SCHOOL
UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO, BOULDER
Boulder, Colorado is said to have an endless amount of things to do: concerts, coffee shops, movies, parties, shopping and plenty of outdoor activities for those adventure-seekers. The Division I sports add to the energy of the school and the atmosphere around campus (campus is only 30 minutes from Denver too). The school is large, with over 25,000 undergrads enrolled last year. The student body is described as “a combination of rich kids and hippies, kids who don’t care about class work and kids who are super-competitive, studying hard during the week and letting loose on the weekends.”
Runner-ups
2) University of Wisconsin, Madison
3) Indiana University (was number one last year)
4) University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
5) Washington and Lee University

TOP STONE-COLD SOBER SCHOOLS
BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY, UTAH
This was based on a combination of survey questions concerning the use of alcohol and drugs, hours of study each day and the popularity of the Greek system.
This school is sponsored by the Mormon community and does have many restrictions on the students both academically and socially. Academically, there is an honor code and socially there is an “understanding” about the way people should dress, wear their hair, and keep their diet and their sexual activity. This school strictly “serves the needs of America’s Mormon community first and foremost.”
Runner-ups
2) Wheaton College
3) U.S. Naval Academy
4) U.S. Air Force Academy
5) Grove City College

HAPPIEST STUDENTS (aka Best Drugs)
DE PAUL UNIVERSITY, CHICAGO
De Paul is the largest Catholic university and has a world-renowned drama department. Professors are said to be “great” and access to them just as good, as classes are on the smaller side. This school is somewhat of a commuter school being that it is in a large city like Chicago, which adds to the diversity of the student body. Students are happy here in large part to the fact that they take advantage of a city like Chicago, with many students relying on the city’s culture for fun. One student says “life in Chicago is great. They city has so much to offer: museums, theaters and restaurants.” Dorms are said to be “like palaces” and the food is said to be great another reason for students to be so happy.
Runner-ups
2) Pomona College
3) Dartmouth College
4) William Jewell College
5) Whitman College

These stupid surveys are always wrong.

It's more than an "understanding": the dress and grooming standards are part of the honor code itself. If a student gets reported for a honor code violation, it is far far more likely because his or her shorts are too short, his hair is too long, her neckline too low, etc., than because he or she cheated on a test or plagiarized a paper. In addition, students must undergo periodic "ecclesiastical endorsement" in which their local church leaders interview them and certify that they attend church and do not engage in any forbidden activities, including the use of drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and coffee and tea, and any sexual activity beyond kissing.

Seems likely they got at least one pick correct. Baylor is lucky to have stayed out of the top 5 on that one, though. Maybe the gunplay category pulled them down in the rankings.

Or the fact of their (former) head basketball coach suggested that they cover up Baylor's illegal payments to the deceased player by alleging that he was a drug dealer. Too bad one can't defame the dead, but I hope the parents are looking at an IIED action.

Yes. She cohabitated with males. I don't know if the fact that she had male housemates was enough or if it was because she shared her room with a (gay) man.

In other RW NO gossip, many RWers dislike Julie. Apparently her publicity folks don't fight fair when it comes to the coveted speaking engagements. It started as a fight between her and Melissa, but has spread within the RW/RR community, with most alums siding with Melissa.

I am so sad.
