Effluvia

"I love this torpid little turd of a show so much..."
Someone from Salon's Table Talk, all excited about the return of Big Brother.

from CNN's review of Moulin Rouge:
"Both Kidman and McGregor have excellent voices. The two also share a great chemistry, and McGregor, as a leading man, has never looked better. (For one thing, he manages to keep his clothes on in this film, a gesture for which we should all feel grateful.)"

Funny things Homer eats:

  • Tubbb!

The Old Guys
At The Gym
Ain't Cool Dep't.

Hey, old guy? I got news for you. No way are your genitals either a) so large or b) so hairy that you need to use a hair dryer to dry them. Don't do that. In fact, it's policy now: Do Not Use Hair Dryers On Genitals.



Three Years Ago
My first-ever encounter with Australians. They are not like us. Beware.

Two Years Ago
An evening of theatre.

One Year Ago
"Go-go boots and ass fucking - are you kidding?"

Cheerleaders

A friend of mine sent me an e-mail the other day. Said friend works at a place that sells cheerleader supplies. He was bitching about all the cheerleaders coming through his office on tours and whatnot.

"Yes," I wrote back, "cheerleaders traipsing through your office all day. Your workplace must be hellish."




Huh. You know, it's rained a lot lately. Like "constantly since Tuesday afternoon" lately. Like "over seven inches at Audobon Park" lately. The rain doesn't bother me, but the driving through standing water isn't so much fun. What I had to drive through yesterday wasn't deep enough to get in the doors, but it was still nerve-wracking. And now my car smells like a foot. And Roxy is all jittery 'cause she hasn't had a long walk in a couple of days - by her own choice. If it's raining she does only the necessary business and then leads me back inside.




I lifted weights and ran a little bit at the gym yesterday. I was walking out of the gym and I thought to myself, "hmmmm, something feels funny. I seem to be a bit off." That's when I realized I was shaking like an Alaskan chihuahua.

Moments later, at Burger King, I ordered a double cheeseburger (only ninety-nine cents!) and some fried jalepenos. That took care of those pesky shakes! And probably wiped out any good I did at the gym, too.

Today I ran three miles and then ate three slices of Pizza Hut Meat Lover's Pizza. I may be fighting a losing battle, here.




Another reason to see Moulin Rouge: Kylie Minogue's cameo - wearing a smile and a little bit of nothing, as per usual - as the absinthe fairy.

Mmmmm-mmmm! Kylie, you be fine!
