True To You | A Morrissey Zine

"I think it's safe to say that the human race is probably scum, on the whole. There's no evidence to the contrary."

Dirty Minute Meals: "a delicious and revelatory look into America's Sweetheart Rachael Ray's smoldering, white-hot unconscious mind."

My wife thinks I have this "thing" for Rachael Ray, which couldn't be further from the truth. However, if I ever stumble upon one of her shows and find myself unable to change the channel, it's not my fault...it's subliminal!

Dr. Who Pinball Machine

Hellloooo! Christmas is coming, people! Do I have to spell it out for you?
"Happy are they who live in the dream of their own existence, and see all things in the light of their own minds; who walk by faith and hope; to whom the guiding star of their youth still shines from afar, and into whom the spirit of the world has not entered! They have not been "hurt by the archers", nor has the iron entered their souls. The world has no hand on them."

--William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

True To You | A Morrissey Zine

Perhaps this explains why there are no Smiths songs on iTunes. And, moreso, why that won't ever be a Smiths reunion (not that there really should be, anyway).

Saturday, December 03, 2005

Okay, so it turns out that I have had pnuemonia or something... after a thorough round of anti-biotics I'm feeling almost human again. Presumably, I'll be able to post a bit more frequently as a result. Cheerio!

So, the recent hurricanes are controlled by the Yakuza using Russian weather-control technology. Just so you know.

NOLA.com: Times-Picayune Breaking News Weblog

Not a good scene in New Orleans. I was there twelve years ago for a weekend; I remember walking around the sweltering downtown area looking for the intersection of Camp and LaFayette streets (where
Lee Harvey Oswald lurked in the Summer of 1963- it no longer exists, apparently, replaced by a plaza of governmental buildings). I remember the humidity and evening showers, the street cars, beignets, blackened catfish, and the Preservation Hall at 11:30 at night. I hope to return some day.

Taschen Books - The Stanley Kubrick Archives

So, I just broke down and purchased this book...the culmination of my appreciation of all things Kubrick.

I have to say that the art books from Taschen are without parallel. I have the series of volumes covering print advertising art from the 1920s to the 1980s, and couldn't be happier with them. Highly recommended.

FOUND Magazine

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in the rain. Time to die."

Sesame Street: 25 of my favorite memories

I would have to add:

- Harvey Kneeslapper
- The Golden An
- Grover selling Kermit a toothbrush
- The Ladybug Picnic
- The King of 8
- The Alligator King
- Kermit's News Flash stories
- Don Music
- Fat Cat Sat Hat
- Telephone Rock
- The Count sleeping over at Bert & Ernie's apartment...keeping Ernie awake all night with his counting. In the morning, Ernie has these bloodshot, baggy eyes and keeps mumbling numbers in the thousands.

Too bad Noggin stopped showing the classic episodes a couple of years ago. For my daughters, you understand.

DJ Format / 3 Feet Deep

DJ Format is back with a new video. Video games and the old-school rap sound: an awesome combo. "Hamster!"

But then there is America We Stand as One.

Wow. Just...wow. Parody or sincere schmaltz? You be the judge.
Eastbay USA Pant

"Do you think I got where I am today because I dress like Peter Pan here? Take a look at what I'm wearing, people. Do you think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearin' these bad boys? Forgetaboutit!"

Your stress level maintains in a balance level. Though if you deal with high stress, you will become quiet and fear your surroundings. For this type playing with pet will help you release the tension."

Don'ts

"Back in the anti-metrosexual 70s the world was so Saturday Night Fever meets Welcome Back Kotter that "looking cool" basically meant acting like a greasy, overweight rapist who was obsessed with himself. Guy, that was THIRTY years ago."

Ah, yes...another birthday. One year older, marginally wiser. The more things change the more they stay the same.

Synergy, I believe it's called.

"Yes, the profile has been a little higher than of late but I shudder when I hear the word 'come back'. I don't like to think that I'm back. I've always been here. It implies something about revisiting the past. There's nothing in the past I'd go back for. No reason ever to. As far as I'm aware only Doctor Who can go back in time. "

Doctor Who's back as well, you know.

"Well, of course he's back. He can never go forward, can he?"

The "how to have 'dungeons and dragons' themed sex" guide

Back in middle school, we tried to start a D&D club for School Club Day, but were vetoed on the grounds that is was "Satanic". Maybe it DID put a curse on my social life for a couple of years. Heh.
