Enough of this Star Wars Stuff
Lets get back to important topics, like beer.
I was visiting our local Party Mart (in the east end, mind you) and of course was visiting the Belgians. I'm noticing more of a trend. More four packs for over ten dollars. Never mind that Party Mart was out of The Hoe and Leffe. WTF? How can you say that you have a "good belgian section" and not have Hoegaarden?
The four packs, giving the impression of artisan beer, have fancy lables and nice bottles, but thats just packaging. It better be golden nectar from Bacchus's chubby ass to pay that much.
That said I'll probably try it, but I'll have to cut my fun budget to do so.
What's a Belgian girl to do? Why the next best thing! Get a Hefe-Weissen!
Although I prefer Paulaner (10.99 for a six pack), good ole Franziskaner filled the bill, and at 6 dollars a six pack, the price was right.

| |The Last Straw
There are days that I hate my job and there are days that I want to use my AK.
If anyone has a line on a job that pays decently in Louisville KY and requires little contact with the public (no sales jobs), please let me know. The maddness has got to stop.
Since the only way ANYONE gets a job in Louisville is through who they know, this is the way I have to do it.

I Have a Crush
I saw Sin City the other day, and liked it. I didn't like it all that much as I walked out of the theater because seeing Sin City is like taking a bath in film noir. They lay it on pretty thick. As I thought about the characters and the stories, however, I really started to like it.
I probably like it a bit too much when it comes to the character Marv (NOT Mickey Rourke, thats gross).
Marv is a brute. A "gladiator" as he is described in the movie. He's this huge guy that has a trist with a prostitute the night she is killed. Of course, he falls in love with her, and goes on a rampage to avenge her.
"She smelled like angles outta smell..."
Its terribly romantic, passionate and violent, but its about as loving as violence can be.
I need a fella like Marv....
Course a body like Goldies couldn't hurt either.
I Don't Care
My Level of NOT CARING ABOUT THIS BULLSHIT HAS REACHED A CRITICAL LEVEL.
Stop asking me questions, you won't get any answers.

This Explains Girls Gone Wild
Heh.
Please explain this quote to me:
"Young women are now more emancipated in that they socialise more freely than they would have in the past. The spin-off is risk-taking behaviour and drunkenness and you see that on the streets,"
Keep our young ladies shy, demure and inside with their sewing.

| |Double Take
I'm blaming this on the early morning. I was poking around the Air America website and glanced on their morning show blog. It was here that I saw this sentence and my head almost exploded.
"Gary Schroen was part of the CIA's drive into Afghanistan to capture Osama bin Laden. Now he's telling his account in his new book, "First In," and in his appearance this morning on our program.
Who? What? Huh?
Ok, so its obvious that I figured out that Gary Schroen and Gary Cherone are NOT the same people, but at the time, I wasn't so sure....

| |Purchase Objects of Desire for Me
I'm going to make myself a wishlist on Amazon.com. Anyone that wishes to purchase anything, go right ahead.
I've decided to get a Rio Carbon 5 GB. They are $189.00 and use Napster, which I know is not as good, but I don't believe I have to update the Opp. System.
Washington was all off kilter yesterday when a lawn mower of the sky violated airspace. Vic Ratner sounded more frightened than usual as he scurried outside of the Whitehouse while Ann Compton broadcasted with her CELLPHONE from the BASEMENT of the Whitehouse. I don't know about your basement, but my cellphone can't make it past my weenie ass basement. Makes me wonder what the freaking basement of the Whitehouse is made of.

Dear god, please make him stop. Somone take him out before Jason v. Freddy v. Ash starts filming.

The Last One
I think I'm the last person on the planet that still has Windows ME as an operating system on their home computer. I'm going to update to 2000 TODAY, mainly because I want iTunes so I can use my iPod.
Can I purchase Windows 2000 at Best Buy? I'm asking this because I have a gift card from there that I need to use.

| |Derby Blogging
Not a bad day, really. Even though it was 12 hours long, I left twenty dollars up. Cindy "Garden Hoe" Sullivan bet on Giacomo to WIN and won several other exotics (she told me she won several thousand. Why is it always the people that don't need the money always win. O well, at least Cindy is cool.) Did I see any D List Celebrities? No? Did I get in the background of the camera while Biff was shooting a skit for The Late Show with David Letterman and then got a picture with him? Yes.
Sweet.

One more from the BBC
A line from this article gave me a chuckle...
"...many parents want restrictions because they go to games to see young men clashing on the pitch, not girls shaking their behinds on the sidelines."
That being said, this has got to be one of the dumbest things Texas has ever suggested.
(bad)Art as.......(worse)Dialouge
My guess is that the people in residence are just going to ignore you, unless you truly get back to your "bird" roots and start relieving your bowels on people's sports coats/trendy blazers.
I would sum this lovely expression of "art" as the Chinese version of David Blaine in the ice block.
Gorsh!! I don't believe it...
"But Zhu Qi signed an agreement with them promising the nest would not cause any political difficulties.
Open public discussion makes the authorities in China uncomfortable. "
Very pithy, BBC...
"The irony for Zhu Qi is that, as much as he aims to inspire people to think critically about the lifestyle generated by China's new capitalism, it is only dynamic, private enterprises like SoHo that make it possible for provocative art to be on Beijing's streets."

Speaking of Music
Heh.
Of course the Telegraph is all "Hot Chicks w/Big Cans Classical Music does Not Make"
Heavy
Cripes, everything on this label is just about ridiculous. Ridiculously great that is.
I picked up the new Boris album the other day. Quite good, if I do say so myself.
The funny thing is that right now I'm listening to Everything Counts by Depeche Mode.
What a tangled web we weave..

Boy did I pick the WRONG book to start out this series
Terry Prachett is supposedly funny. People I know tell me all the time how funny the whole Discworld series is.
I was at the used bookstore last night and I picked up one of his books.
I should have known by the title that this was NOT the one for me to start out on, but it was the only one they had and it was three bucks.
Eh, I'll try it.
This quote made me throw the book against the wall.
"I have no problems with arms," Vimes stated "its the weapons that are usually in the arms that cause the problem."
*sigh* I guess I'm too political to enjoy a sci-fi/parody called Jingo

The Week From Hell
aka Derby Week.
Its true that those of us in the media don't get to enjoy the Derby nearly as much as the common folk. Heck, we media slaves hardly get to enjoy ANY holiday.
Never mind that after working a nine hour day at the track on Saturday for the 2 minute horsey trot, I have to work eight hours taking care of my grandmother.
Someone once told me that caregiving builds a servants heart and that I should be thankful for the opportunity that GAWD has given me....
I would have liked to smack that person in the face with a tire iron. They don't tell you about the times when she is violent and threatens to write me out of the will because I can't take her out to dinner. They don't mention changing clothes four times a day after she has messed herself. They don't mention the woman asking you the same question twenty times in as many minutes. They don't mention that you get called every name in the book (my favorite is whore).
If I live to be that old, someone hand me a shotgun, a bottle of pills and let me go off into the woods. I'll get myself a Hoveround, so I can get all Joy Culligan and drive myself off a senic view.
In other words, I hate caregiving. I hate taking care of people. I'm not having children. If you think this is selfish or cruel of me, fuck off.
Happy Happy Joy-Joy Sunshiney Day.
