BAM!

At the St. Louis zoo this weekend, it was packed. And with people of varying ages and socio-economic backgrounds. Of all the thousands of people there, I was among the few under 40 who didn't have a tattoo. When asked why I don't have a tattoo, I usually explain that that I wanted a way to express my individuality and make me unique. I get odd looks sometimes, because that's why most people do get tattoos. The funny thing is, by doing so, they become the majority, and just like everyone else. Funny how that works.

Picked up Alien Resurrection today.

Grilled perfect salmon for dinner, and had a marvelous Kansan Spatelese with it. I hate questions such as, "If you were stranded on a desert island and could only have one [fill in the blank] for the rest of your life, what would it be?" I hate these because I am such a diverse person, and I know whatever I chose I would eventually become disenchanted with over time. Unlike most people however, I have had enough variety in some things, that I know exactly what I would choose in some catagories.

Havana Monticristo Cigar
Plizner Urquell
a Rhienhessen Spatlese

Picked up two cars from the Cartoon Network's Hot Wheels Acceleracers series, both from Team 'Metal Maniacs' the Hollowback and Rivited:



SWEET! Confirmation at 2228 hours that my Bear McCreary autographed soundtrack is ON IT'S WAY!!! Critics have called his last one (Season One) a score, and this one, an album. Apparently its much richer in depth than his last one. My review of the preview tracks can be found here. I await with eager anticipation.

It would be nice to see you on a Friday Night sometime again Carly. Between you and Babs my Friday night choices have grown smaller...I can only handle so much of the Zone!!!

Actually, I haven't gone there in a while...:-)

Might I suggest you create a free livejournal account simply for the ease of responding to posts and an avatar? That's the only reason I have so many; not to post on them, but to reply. Everyone's doing it...

OK

Ok, I guess. Darn it. I wanted to be lazy for as long as possible and now I've been called on it...Here goes. :-)

I justed looked at this again and it seems whiney wich makes me want to choke myself. Sorry, I should have made it more obvious that it was in jest. Anyhoo, maybe we could all do a movie night sometime. I vote for Carla to host it...Ha!

We get in trouble all the time for inflections which are not passed on through the written word. The answer of course is to overcompensate - which again can sometimes backfire. I am most often accused of being abrasive when I'm trying to illustrate absurdity by being absurd but it really isn't a perfect forum.

I was in the United Kingdom stationed at Royal Air Force Alconbury attached to the Joint Analysis Center in 1992 when my father sent me Rush Linbaugh's first book. That's when I first heard that phrase. You were six years old.

Explain to me again exactly how the fuck that's your line?

I would love for everyone to get together at my house for a movie night.....I've been wanting to introduce the Howton's to everyone for a long,long,long time.
If only we could find someone to babysit the two kids!

Dude, I don't really exist. I'm a figment of her overactive imagination! She created this account so her two personalities could chat with each other.
