Yesterday I was rifling through a bunch a papers. My hubby asked what I was looking for so I told him my boyfriend’s phone number, since he was going to be away.
Well, that’s it. My man has left on a jet plane for California. Given that we’ve had 2″ of snow overnight and it’s still snowing, I wish I could join him.
J0e, Major Tickles is my nemesis.
Does anybody remember the cartoon Captain Caveman?
I wouldn’t classify haggis as disgusting, just not something I’d expect to enjoy, a matter of the chef I am sure. I enjoy properly prepared liver which most folks would put in the category digusting.
I can’t say I think much of the page’s logic because my choices were all US and occasionally Great Lakes area, but then my finally grade was just barely Dixie.
Listening to Tag In The Seam #2. I admit I once tried to wax my beard. It was the most horrifying experience of my life. And according to my wife, one of the most hilarious.
Must be from my Grandmother. She’s from Mississippi. I always assumed I had that 80’s California skater dialect. But I guess when you combine “Dude” with “Y’all”…
I got the same result on the Yankee/Dixie quiz as Thomas and TEB (mostly Great Lakes-type answers, but still ended up in the Dixie category). My final score was 53% Dixie.
Well ya’ll let me know if ya’ll ever wanna hear the true Southern speak. I have been exposed to that crap, my whole life yet have managed to half-way stay away from, unless I have been drinking or pissed off.
But can gladly whip it on and say my name like my mama, with THREE syllables.
Intolerance is at the root of increased rates of violent crime victimization in the gay community, say advocates in the wake of a Statistics Canada study released yesterday.
Citing 2004 figures, the report states gays, lesbians and bisexuals faced higher rates of robbery and sexual and physical assault than heterosexuals – with the odds of being victimized by violence more nearly two times greater for gays and lesbians and 4.5 times greater for bisexuals…
The article goes on but I’ll stop there.
I can speak to this. About 10 years ago I had an acquaintance who was (still is) gay but was very discreet about it. Despite his discreetness, one night he came home to his apartment (late at night) and was jumped. Spent quite a long time in the hospital. It was at this point he decided, since being quiet about his sexual orientation didn’t work, he would let the world know. From then on, the moment anybody met him, they knew. He wasn’t quite “flaming” but still.
I just don’t understand the stupidity of some people (I’m talking about those that beat him up, not about my friend)
A Pennsylvania man who shot and wounded a police officer more than 41 years ago will stand trial for his murder following the officer’s death last year.
Prosecutors say the victim, Walter Barclay, died of injuries directly linked to the 1966 shooting.
William Barnes, 71, who served around 20 years in prison for the shooting and other offenses, was re-arrested last year and charged with murder following Barclay’s death.
Prosecutors say a urinary tract infection that afflicted Barclay was a direct result of his paralysis. That was caused when Barnes shot him in the spine during an attempted break-in Nov. 27, 1966
Judge Bradley Moss of the Philadelphia Court of Common Please sided with prosecutors, although he noted he had not found any other case in the US in which a suspect had been charged with murder so long after causing an injury.
-Calgary Sun
Ok, let me get this straight. The guy shoots someone, serves time for it. Then FORTY-ONE(!!!!), years later, the person shot dies, so they’re going to charge the shooter.
Does anybody else see the stupidity of this? (think time and money wasted)
I am in fucking FL… I hate FL… I want to get back to the south. Yes, FL is not the south. It is just hell… No where to park… Fuck this State and there beaches I never get to see.
My silly hubby, who is currently in San Francisco, left his cell phone at school (work). I had to go pick it up, but it’s still too early to shop so I came back. Will go spend money in an hour.
Van, I know someone who was in London with a coworker and the coworker didn’t know what the peas were, so they told the coworker it was wasabi and they spread it all over their fish.
They talked about that skirt on Slice. Apparently it was seen only on that single episode and was to show the high level of acceptance of different gender roles in the 24th century.
I’ve seen some shows about the construction of that super collider. They talk about building a thing many miles in diameter and they have to align the components down to millimeter tolerances.
Really Big Things and Really Small Tolerances are not a good mix.
I grew up listening to storybook cassette tapes, most of which had chimes to prompt me to turn the page. I had two big, colorful cassette players with functional microphones, which I used to record myself reading a book and narrating a tour of the house. With that in my background, podcasting (or, at least, contributing to podcasts) is a natural fit for me.
JfS: It’s available on iTunes! Sweet. When I was a kid, I played that over and over again. Maybe that’s why I don’t like listening to songs repeatedly now. lol
I don’t think that remix is all that bad. It certainly isn’t as good as it should be, but… oh wait… what the hell did they do in the middle there… Ugh. Never mind.
Winston FDR? Is that a new type of cigarrette? I’m just so uncool.
As for the movie, yes, it is definitely a farcical look at cowboy westerns.
Man, I had forgotten that was Sela Ward as the daughter. She must be older than I thought. Still looked pretty good back when she was on “House” a few seasons back.
Perhaps a future -apalooza candidate (Ruster’s Rhapsody, not House).
In case anyone cares, with the latest of Adobe’s consumer level editors Photoshop Elements 6 and Premiere Elements 4, you can upload pics straight from the organizer to Flickr and videos straight from the time line to Youtube.
Dub it is okay… Most of the people I now call friends are people in around Podcasting… I talk to them only in slipper nipples and VMs… Who needs life if they got a podcast.
During season 3, I would see them available that evening here. Like I would just check at the end of the day they aired, and there would always be 1 available. God bless the brits for sharing! I love you guys! :)
Speaking of boobs. clothes manufacturers never think of boobs. I just went to put clothes on cuz we have a friend stopping by and I put on this new really cute shirt I got at Target and it was obviously made for a girl who HAS NO BOOBS. what the fuck? I look obscene in it. I can wear this as lingerie when I want to get Hugh all excited, I can’t wear this in public!
she just went to change shirts, and can I just say… I think that shirt was hot.
But she is right, I would prefer if only I had the pleasure of seeing her in it, not the whole world.
Ok I’m going to go back to thinking about her boobs again while I wait…
Well, at least I can truthfully say I’m doing it for the children. From the looks of the boxes I just unloaded into the garage, I’m going to be doing it for quite a while.
Smarty Hotties® agree, no one, no matter how “famous” has any right to treat you like crap
anyone that does something you like and you want to tell them about it, approach them like they are a real person, because they are real people, and they prefer to be treated as such. Hero worship gets old and no matter how many times you tell them you are their number 1 fan and you can recite every book/movie/commercial/tv show/album/song/ whatever they have EVER created, so can a lot of other people and at the end of the day who cares? They will never be your friend cause why would you want a friend who does nothing but worships you and agrees to everything you say? A true friend would tell you when you are hurting yourself or others, a true friend would tell you the truth about yourself. They have producers and labels and managers and people they pay to suck their cock for them on a daily basis, they may enjoy it once or twice from you, but then they will just move on to the next willing person.
Hugh sez: wow babe, nice rant
thanks :) too bad no one will read it
Hugh sez: I read it
thats all the matters Hughie :)
Hugh sez: thats right babe. Now worship me, tell me how great I am and suck my cock
Hugh and I were just discussing my above rant and I want to add that it is ok to tell someone you love what they do, there is nothing wrong with telling them, hey that was a really fucking cool book, or that last record rocks dude, or whatever. Its what you say after that. I’ve met some of my music idols over the years, and I can call a few of them among my friends and I will tell them OMG I love your new record but then i can relate to them as a human being. There is nothing wrong with complimenting people.
On the flip side, it sucks when you genuinely approach someone to tell them Hey your book was awesome and they treat you like a piece of shit.. that sucks and that person should be smacked.
Hugh sez: I agree
the final contents of Vegas is j0e’s wallet. Poor j0e.
j0e, Leann and Jack came back after the music, therefore Hugh wins again
Hugh sez: w00t!
Well, i need to go tend to my lord and master now since he won the Smarty Hottie® Is Jack coming back after the music game™
if you need me I will be in shackles while Hugh has his way with me
Hugh sez: Great idea babe! But we have 1 more unhow to listen to first
It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?…
It’s a neighborly day in this beauty wood,
A neighborly day for a beauty.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?…
I’ve always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
I’ve always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.
So, let’s make the most of this beautiful day.
Since we’re together we might as well say:
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won’t you be my neighbor?
Won’t you please,
Won’t you please?
Please won’t you be my neighbor?
Interestly enough, people were talking about Jeff Healy a couple of weeks ago over at the guitar website I visit. They mentioned what a great guitarist he was but that his health was failing. This should be an interesting week.
While I have voted, Alberta is only expecting about a 30% voter turn out.
This ticks me off. I’m a firm believer that if you don’t vote, then you don’t have the right to complain about the government or its policies.
While I admit there are a few exceptions (like my hubby who is out of town and has been since before even the advance polling stations were open and won’t be home until after the polls close), I find it hard to believe 70% of the population has legitimate excuses.
The person at the local Husky said he can’t vote because he has dual citizenship and if he voted in either election he would lose that privilege. I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t know the law in that area but somehow I’m dubious as this is a provincial election not federal.
Keep up the great work TEB. Currently I’m running (really running/walking) two miles a day and lifting every other day. Once I get a little stronger, I’ll increase it. My knees tell me every day how much of a 40 year old I am. LOL
I know what you mean, Rhettro. I prefer cycling to running since it’s easier on my knees. I’ve gotten out of my exercise regime, so I need to kick my own butt back to the weights.
A few years ago, my husband and I decided to get serious. We’ve always done the stationary bike but we bought a new programmable one, a weight bench and weights and I got some cardio DVD’s.
Of course, I’m not sure I liked the getting up at 6 am to work out before going to work but since we do it together it’s not too bad.
Didn’t need to lose weight (well, he didn’t anyway) but now, a few years later, we still notice the difference in our energy level.
As for running/walking. I find I have to do low impact work out for the same reason. Damn knees :)
There, bar is together. Will wait until hubby gets home before I put it up as he may have a specific spot he wants it (though most likely in the office doorway)
I was high and dry like the Kansas sky
If I ached for any more I knew I’d surely die
Night after night trying to get out of my skin
Day after lonely day
You’d send me back again
I have stood inside this prison
I have touched its stony walls
I know before you try to run
You gotta learn to crawl
I tried to leave it all behind me
I drove all night just to drive all day
But the walls of this prison still surround me
And I can’t break away
No Van, I have no intention of bulking up (or is that hulking up?) As I said, we’ve always worked out, and I tend to get bored with the same routine day in and day out so I’m just mixing things up a bit.
Ditto, it’s really a nice bar, now that I’ve seen it up close. Very sturdy. And, in my mind a reasonable price. Especially now that the Canadian $ is at (or even a little above) the US.
To attach to the doorway, there are metal brackets that screw into the wall, just above the door jam. The bar just sits into them, so it’s easy to remove (as long as you don’t mind the look of metal brackets above your door :) ).
Hmmm, the wife might complain about the brackets, though I could really use a good pullup bar. She certainly wouldn’t complain about better shoulders. :)
Nice bar. I want one. When I started working out (about the same time I started coming here) I couldn’t do an unassisted wide grip pull up or more than like, one dip.
I can do 3 sets of 10 dips no problem now, but those wide grip pull-ups are hard. I can do 5, 3 and 2 now. Then I do weigh 195+, so…
I was down to 189 in mid december, but then vacation and lack of rugby, then twisting my ankle has me back up to 197 or so….totally lame. Ankle feels better now, time to whoop myself into sexy-mode for Dublin!!
We lift weights using a bowflex machine at home- and we alternate muscle groups
Then Hugh runs and I bike
Every evening we do bikram yoga
weekends we also do tai chi
Honestly at this point we are putting more focus on the yoga and tai chi then the weight lifting and cardio.
I like to try to go swimming a few times a week in the summer
Hugh did the bulk up thing. He was such a cute skinny guy when I met him. Then he bulked up to the sexy muscle hunk he is now :)
Ok I need to go jump in the lake or something now
bye
I’m suffering a bit of a creative derth at the moment. I had a few ideas for content but forgot most of them. LOL I’ll try and jot some ideas down latter, probably nothing I can contribute this week.
That’s sad and a little freaky. While driving in today I was listening to Slice and they have that ad for Dragon Con TV or something, but it has a clip of Gary Gygax talking. And for whatever reason it reminded me of the Simpsons episode that had Gary Gygax and Al Gore on it. LOL
It’s a beautiful sunny day. I’m sitting here, eating a cheese omelette, listening to the birds sing. It’s so bright and sunny, I don’t need any lights on in the house. A nice change from the winter darkness.
While I didn’t put myself through school this way, I know my mother occasionally made a few extra dollars when I was but a tot and she was trying to put herself through school.
In other news. There’s talk of making voting mandatory. For our provincial election, Alberta had the lowest voter turnout in CANADIAN (not just provincial) history.
Two street racers aren’t responsible for injuries suffered by an elderly pedestrian hit by one of their motorcycles, a judge ruled yesterday.
Justice Peter McIntyre said Harvey David, 79, was to blame for the crash which hospitalized him. He later died there after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.
But McIntyre did find both Jacob Bjerknes, 29 and Lindsey Conroy, 28, guilty of dangerous driving for speeding down busy 17 Ave S.W. during a spring evening three years ago.
McIntyre acquitted the two Calgary men of the more serious charges of criminal negligence and dangerous driving causing bodily harm, ruling David was responsible for the crash.
Bjerknes collided with David as the elderly man was trying ot cross the street, breaking his leg and fracturing two ribs.
David died days after the crash
- Calgary Sun
Wait a minute. If I want to cross the street, I now have to watch for the illegal street racers or it’s my own fault they hit me????
Subconsciously, I think I noticed each one of those expressions as odd.
Dub, I went back and listened to Tag #2 this morning. I think Leann is the only person that can make the subject of body hair entertaining. LOL
On DnD, I had a friend introduce me to DnD when I was 11, I was hooked. But he moved away and I didn’t get back into it until 7th grade. I bought the basic books and played a few games. But it wasn’t until I was a junior in high school that I ever got into a regular weekly game. That was awesome, 7 player game with girls and boys really entertaining. Didn’t play again until I was 28 and met someone who was heavily into Rolemaster. So my wife and I spent a summer playing Rolemaster on Saturdays with another couple and a few friends. Fun but time consuming. I still buy books about role playing, but mostly just for reading, I’m not sure I would make the best game master, but I love to play.
My husband and I try to play every Saturday. It’s not always D & D (right now it’s thrilling tales) but we try to do some form of role playing.
On Fridays we have a bunch of people over and do table top games, such as Killer Bunnies, any of the Catan games, Kill Doctor Lucky, Ticket to Ride, etc.
I know they have been claims that elections have been lost due to bad weather in the UK, where voters of one party don’t turn in the same numbers in bad weather.
As a teenager, I played quite a bit of D&D, stopped for a while, and then played a bit again during college. I haven’t played since, other than video games. Like Rhettro, I do enjoy picking up the manuals from time to time.
Some of the 4th ed changes sound interesting. I might have to give it a try, but considering the lack of free time that I have, I don’t see how.
Good to see you Dre, you know I think there are some additional rules that govern sex play into DnD. I’m almost 100 percent sure there are unofficial rules that govern that. LOL
I was kinda thinking as you moved around to each room or whatever you have to have sex with everything in the room in order to pass.. and you get points for different methods, positions that sort of thing.
And you pick up toys as you go. You start with a box of condoms and handcuffs or something like that. LOL
And when you picked what you are, you can have differnt levels of perversion or something
Oh, it’s a much brighter day here in Texas now that the political wolfpack has picked our carcass clean of votes and has moved on in search of new meat.

Morning Pan, and today there is Sunshine..wahoo!
February 28th, 2008 at 12:10 am
I would have written ‘Let there be light’ but that’s far too biblical for a Thursday Morning.
February 28th, 2008 at 3:25 am
Still in the drk over here, Van. But fresh Pan in iTunes, so that is good,.
February 28th, 2008 at 3:41 am
It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood….but not in my sinuses.
February 28th, 2008 at 4:16 am
I’m too six-y for this post.
February 28th, 2008 at 5:25 am
Morning Pan. Dark and LOTS of snow here.
February 28th, 2008 at 5:28 am
Leaving in an hour to take hubby to the airport.
Bunny will be aaaaalllllllll alone for a few days :(
Will have to cuddle a teddy bear to stay warm at night.
February 28th, 2008 at 5:47 am

February 28th, 2008 at 5:54 am
Yesterday I was rifling through a bunch a papers. My hubby asked what I was looking for so I told him my boyfriend’s phone number, since he was going to be away.
I got major tickles for that :)
February 28th, 2008 at 6:44 am
Major Tickles is your boyfriend?
February 28th, 2008 at 7:57 am
Much better than Major Hemriod.
Prepare plan H.
February 28th, 2008 at 8:01 am
His cousin Private Tickles is the popular one though…
February 28th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Depends on your preferences I guess … in some circles, Corporal Punishment is quite popular.
February 28th, 2008 at 8:07 am
Well General Apathy couldn’t care less.
February 28th, 2008 at 8:17 am
Well, that’s it. My man has left on a jet plane for California. Given that we’ve had 2″ of snow overnight and it’s still snowing, I wish I could join him.
J0e, Major Tickles is my nemesis.
Does anybody remember the cartoon Captain Caveman?
February 28th, 2008 at 8:18 am
I see he’s been here. ;)

February 28th, 2008 at 8:22 am
Yep. Captain Caveman was pretty funny.
February 28th, 2008 at 8:30 am
These guys aren’t apathetic at all.

February 28th, 2008 at 8:44 am
They used that gun to kill a fish in a barrel once. It wasn’t a pretty sight
February 28th, 2008 at 8:53 am
I bet not. Easy way to make shredded fish, but not much left that would be worth eating.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:18 am
Trust the Gorton’s fisherman.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:19 am
Got to see that episode a few weeks ago when it ran – that is one sweet piece of firepower.
It’s interesting that they have to go to Arizona to use it because of it supposedly being illegal in Kalifornia.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:21 am
ummmm…yum?

http://www.angelfire.com/ak2/intelligencerreport/yankee_dixie_quiz.html
How the hell did I end up 63% Dixie?
I blame Leann.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:49 am
ditto, has anyone really enjoyed haggis?
February 28th, 2008 at 9:51 am
45% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:52 am
My parents were immigrants so I grew up with traditional food. So, supposedly “disgusting” food like haggis doesn’t really bother me.
February 28th, 2008 at 9:56 am
46% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
Born in Michigan, raised in midwest.
Long live the Union, I guess.
February 28th, 2008 at 10:00 am
I wouldn’t classify haggis as disgusting, just not something I’d expect to enjoy, a matter of the chef I am sure. I enjoy properly prepared liver which most folks would put in the category digusting.
February 28th, 2008 at 10:06 am
60% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.
Does this really count when you’re from Canada?
February 28th, 2008 at 10:15 am
I can’t say I think much of the page’s logic because my choices were all US and occasionally Great Lakes area, but then my finally grade was just barely Dixie.
February 28th, 2008 at 10:27 am
I had the same problem, Thomas.
Lunch Time!
February 28th, 2008 at 10:36 am
Can I have a nap please, not long 15 minutes ought to be plenty fine.
February 28th, 2008 at 10:47 am
Hmm, quiz blocked as “sexual material”
Just what kinda test is this?
:)
February 28th, 2008 at 10:48 am
89%
Surprise.
February 28th, 2008 at 11:53 am
lol. Not really. :)
February 28th, 2008 at 11:59 am
44% yankee…must be all that pop I drink.
February 28th, 2008 at 12:05 pm
^LOL
February 28th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
Ya’ll don’t make fun of me.
February 28th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Wouldn’t dream of it. Then you’d lay down the smackdown on us all and that wouldn’t be pretty.
February 28th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Being raised in Kansas, I sound like Bob Dole. So by definition I can’t make fun of anyone.
February 28th, 2008 at 12:28 pm
Just so long as you don’t say all y’all. ;)
February 28th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
I feel a mighty smackdown coming. (Notice I didn’t say “a-coming.”)
Yipe!
February 28th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
45% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
Huh, only had one or 2 southern leaning ones.
February 28th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
Should Private Parts be whistling Dixie?
February 28th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
Listening to Tag In The Seam #2. I admit I once tried to wax my beard. It was the most horrifying experience of my life. And according to my wife, one of the most hilarious.
February 28th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
52% Dixie, barely there y’all.
February 28th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
ditto – only if Dixie is into that.
February 28th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
“Whistling,” so that’s what they’re calling it now.
February 28th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
I got good lemonade, ah, dixie cups
All flavors and push ups too
I’m your ice cream man, baby, stop me when I’m passin’ by
February 28th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
60% Dixie.
Must be from my Grandmother. She’s from Mississippi. I always assumed I had that 80’s California skater dialect. But I guess when you combine “Dude” with “Y’all”…
February 28th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
Hmm, 70% Dixie for me. I’d best most of that comes from actually using y’all in a grammatically correct fashion.
February 28th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
I got the same result on the Yankee/Dixie quiz as Thomas and TEB (mostly Great Lakes-type answers, but still ended up in the Dixie category). My final score was 53% Dixie.
February 28th, 2008 at 6:11 pm
62% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!
February 28th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
*high five* disgruntled scientist!!!
I still win!!
Wait, that’s probably not such a good thing.
February 28th, 2008 at 8:30 pm
Yay!!! Well being dixie may not be a bad thing either.
Right on for winning Leann :-) I think the southern girls have flavor, so says Frankie Beverly. So say we all :-)
February 28th, 2008 at 8:32 pm
So say we all! :D
February 28th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
Woohoo! Flavor!
February 28th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
Well ya’ll let me know if ya’ll ever wanna hear the true Southern speak. I have been exposed to that crap, my whole life yet have managed to half-way stay away from, unless I have been drinking or pissed off.
But can gladly whip it on and say my name like my mama, with THREE syllables.
yea
*sigh*
February 28th, 2008 at 11:42 pm
Is that a saltly with a bitter aftertaste flavour?
February 29th, 2008 at 3:17 am
44% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
I noticed if you accidentally click compute more than once the score gets more and more heavily Dixie, until finally reaching 100%
February 29th, 2008 at 4:35 am
Texas is a sick place…..at least the part where my head and chest reside.
meh!
February 29th, 2008 at 5:28 am

In the news today..
Intolerance is at the root of increased rates of violent crime victimization in the gay community, say advocates in the wake of a Statistics Canada study released yesterday.
Citing 2004 figures, the report states gays, lesbians and bisexuals faced higher rates of robbery and sexual and physical assault than heterosexuals – with the odds of being victimized by violence more nearly two times greater for gays and lesbians and 4.5 times greater for bisexuals…
The article goes on but I’ll stop there.
I can speak to this. About 10 years ago I had an acquaintance who was (still is) gay but was very discreet about it. Despite his discreetness, one night he came home to his apartment (late at night) and was jumped. Spent quite a long time in the hospital. It was at this point he decided, since being quiet about his sexual orientation didn’t work, he would let the world know. From then on, the moment anybody met him, they knew. He wasn’t quite “flaming” but still.
I just don’t understand the stupidity of some people (I’m talking about those that beat him up, not about my friend)

A Pennsylvania man who shot and wounded a police officer more than 41 years ago will stand trial for his murder following the officer’s death last year.
Prosecutors say the victim, Walter Barclay, died of injuries directly linked to the 1966 shooting.
William Barnes, 71, who served around 20 years in prison for the shooting and other offenses, was re-arrested last year and charged with murder following Barclay’s death.
Prosecutors say a urinary tract infection that afflicted Barclay was a direct result of his paralysis. That was caused when Barnes shot him in the spine during an attempted break-in Nov. 27, 1966
Judge Bradley Moss of the Philadelphia Court of Common Please sided with prosecutors, although he noted he had not found any other case in the US in which a suspect had been charged with murder so long after causing an injury.
-Calgary Sun
Ok, let me get this straight. The guy shoots someone, serves time for it. Then FORTY-ONE(!!!!), years later, the person shot dies, so they’re going to charge the shooter.
Does anybody else see the stupidity of this? (think time and money wasted)
February 29th, 2008 at 5:58 am
that’s it. The rest of the news is just…news.

Dude, In Encounter at Farpoint, there is a dude who shows up twice in a skirt. What’s up with that?
February 29th, 2008 at 11:50 am
Van, I know someone who was in London with a coworker and the coworker didn’t know what the peas were, so they told the coworker it was wasabi and they spread it all over their fish.
I just wish I had been there to watch…
February 29th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Wasn’t a futuristic kilt?
My memories of EAF are unreliable due to the passage of time.

They talked about that skirt on Slice. Apparently it was seen only on that single episode and was to show the high level of acceptance of different gender roles in the 24th century.

Bit like Captain-I’llshaganythingthatbreathes-Jack in Torchwood and the new Doctor Who.
February 29th, 2008 at 12:53 pm
I’ve heard of Capt. Jack, but haven’t seen any episodes of Torchwood. But after two seasons of the new Who, I’m burnt out. I can’t watch it anymore.
February 29th, 2008 at 1:08 pm
Well I enjoy watching the new Dr Who once, but don’t bother watching it again.
I can think of worse shows (I’m looking at you Flash Gordon).
February 29th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
So mushy peas gets a Wiki page. Deadpan doesn’t.
Mushy peas is therefore greater than Deadpan.
February 29th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Paris Hilton gets a Wiki page. Deadpan doesn’t.
Therefore Deadpan is not as slutty as Paris Hilton.

February 29th, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Speaking of hairdo’s, I believe there is a wiki page on bikini waxing. Probably NSFW.
February 29th, 2008 at 1:28 pm
I thought about getting a brazillian once…
February 29th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
Which is kinda absurd, aren’t bikini’s shiny enough?

I’ve seen some shows about the construction of that super collider. They talk about building a thing many miles in diameter and they have to align the components down to millimeter tolerances.
Really Big Things and Really Small Tolerances are not a good mix.

Alright, quiz time. Who else has seen this movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089945/
I was surprised that several of my coworkers had never heard of it.
February 29th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
You’ll have to put me in the never heard of it catagory. Shame though. Mmmmm… Sela Ward.
February 29th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
I’m in the same category.
However the good Pavlov dog that I am, at Jac’sk R=reference to The Black Hole Movie, I started humming the theme tune.
February 29th, 2008 at 2:34 pm
To the Black Hole movie and not Rustler’s Rhapsody, which I haven’t seen.
I realised I mentioned that fact twice, but thought it was important enough to repeat…
February 29th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
I need to see the Black Hole again.
February 29th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
I’m tempted to put the BH soundtrack album on…
February 29th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Hopefully that Red Dwarf reference slipped under the radar.

February 29th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
I’d rather listen to the Black Hole storybook record, with the beep to prompt me to turn pages.
Holy crap, we are old.
Ed, I vaguely remember that movie, but have never seen it. Any good?
February 29th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Ed – haven’t seen the thing in over a decade but my recolection is that it is GREAT parady fun. Sort of pre-Princess Bride-ish sort of thingy.
February 29th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Not seen either movie.
February 29th, 2008 at 3:22 pm
I grew up listening to storybook cassette tapes, most of which had chimes to prompt me to turn the page. I had two big, colorful cassette players with functional microphones, which I used to record myself reading a book and narrating a tour of the house. With that in my background, podcasting (or, at least, contributing to podcasts) is a natural fit for me.

February 29th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
78’s? I remember when records came on wax cylinders…
Oh gawd I feel a monty python sketch coming on.
February 29th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
I don’t think that remix is all that bad. It certainly isn’t as good as it should be, but… oh wait… what the hell did they do in the middle there… Ugh. Never mind.

March 1st, 2008 at 8:23 am
Winston FDR? Is that a new type of cigarrette? I’m just so uncool.
As for the movie, yes, it is definitely a farcical look at cowboy westerns.
Man, I had forgotten that was Sela Ward as the daughter. She must be older than I thought. Still looked pretty good back when she was on “House” a few seasons back.
Perhaps a future -apalooza candidate (Ruster’s Rhapsody, not House).

March 22nd is the Easter weekend so I’m betting on that start date.

Speaking of boobs. clothes manufacturers never think of boobs. I just went to put clothes on cuz we have a friend stopping by and I put on this new really cute shirt I got at Target and it was obviously made for a girl who HAS NO BOOBS. what the fuck? I look obscene in it. I can wear this as lingerie when I want to get Hugh all excited, I can’t wear this in public!
[/tangent]
March 2nd, 2008 at 6:24 am
she just went to change shirts, and can I just say… I think that shirt was hot.
But she is right, I would prefer if only I had the pleasure of seeing her in it, not the whole world.
Ok I’m going to go back to thinking about her boobs again while I wait…

1min 1sec of conversation
outrobabble
they will elaborate on it later
Smarty Hotties® agree, no one, no matter how “famous” has any right to treat you like crap
anyone that does something you like and you want to tell them about it, approach them like they are a real person, because they are real people, and they prefer to be treated as such. Hero worship gets old and no matter how many times you tell them you are their number 1 fan and you can recite every book/movie/commercial/tv show/album/song/ whatever they have EVER created, so can a lot of other people and at the end of the day who cares? They will never be your friend cause why would you want a friend who does nothing but worships you and agrees to everything you say? A true friend would tell you when you are hurting yourself or others, a true friend would tell you the truth about yourself. They have producers and labels and managers and people they pay to suck their cock for them on a daily basis, they may enjoy it once or twice from you, but then they will just move on to the next willing person.
Hugh sez: wow babe, nice rant

Hugh and I were just discussing my above rant and I want to add that it is ok to tell someone you love what they do, there is nothing wrong with telling them, hey that was a really fucking cool book, or that last record rocks dude, or whatever. Its what you say after that. I’ve met some of my music idols over the years, and I can call a few of them among my friends and I will tell them OMG I love your new record but then i can relate to them as a human being. There is nothing wrong with complimenting people.
On the flip side, it sucks when you genuinely approach someone to tell them Hey your book was awesome and they treat you like a piece of shit.. that sucks and that person should be smacked.
Hugh sez: I agree

Now to rant…
While I have voted, Alberta is only expecting about a 30% voter turn out.
This ticks me off. I’m a firm believer that if you don’t vote, then you don’t have the right to complain about the government or its policies.
While I admit there are a few exceptions (like my hubby who is out of town and has been since before even the advance polling stations were open and won’t be home until after the polls close), I find it hard to believe 70% of the population has legitimate excuses.

The person at the local Husky said he can’t vote because he has dual citizenship and if he voted in either election he would lose that privilege. I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t know the law in that area but somehow I’m dubious as this is a provincial election not federal.

Ohh, I got a package in the mail.
My new pull up bar is here!
I’m off to find a doorway to put it on.
Bye!
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:28 am
Cool TEB, I’m on my four week of running and lifting weights. I’ve lost four pounds so far.
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:37 am
Bar is “some assembly required”.
Rhettro, I actually do a fairly heavy cardio routine of 1 – 1.5 hours a day, six days a week (although I didn’t do much while my husband was away :) )
I find just looking at food makes me gain weight so I have to work quite hard to maintain my girlish figure.
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:38 am
Now I’m adding more weights (and the bar of course) to my routine just to mix it up.
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:41 am
Keep up the great work TEB. Currently I’m running (really running/walking) two miles a day and lifting every other day. Once I get a little stronger, I’ll increase it. My knees tell me every day how much of a 40 year old I am. LOL
March 3rd, 2008 at 11:45 am
I know what you mean, Rhettro. I prefer cycling to running since it’s easier on my knees. I’ve gotten out of my exercise regime, so I need to kick my own butt back to the weights.
March 3rd, 2008 at 12:00 pm
A few years ago, my husband and I decided to get serious. We’ve always done the stationary bike but we bought a new programmable one, a weight bench and weights and I got some cardio DVD’s.
Of course, I’m not sure I liked the getting up at 6 am to work out before going to work but since we do it together it’s not too bad.
Didn’t need to lose weight (well, he didn’t anyway) but now, a few years later, we still notice the difference in our energy level.
As for running/walking. I find I have to do low impact work out for the same reason. Damn knees :)
March 3rd, 2008 at 12:12 pm
Ack, Ack! just ripped my shirt trying to put this bar together (don’t ask me how).

There, bar is together. Will wait until hubby gets home before I put it up as he may have a specific spot he wants it (though most likely in the office doorway)

I was high and dry like the Kansas sky
If I ached for any more I knew I’d surely die
Night after night trying to get out of my skin
Day after lonely day
You’d send me back again
I have stood inside this prison
I have touched its stony walls
I know before you try to run
You gotta learn to crawl
I tried to leave it all behind me
I drove all night just to drive all day
But the walls of this prison still surround me
And I can’t break away

March 3rd, 2008 at 12:48 pm
No Van, I have no intention of bulking up (or is that hulking up?) As I said, we’ve always worked out, and I tend to get bored with the same routine day in and day out so I’m just mixing things up a bit.
March 3rd, 2008 at 12:54 pm
TEB: that bar looks interesting. I might have to check it out.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:03 pm
Ditto, it’s really a nice bar, now that I’ve seen it up close. Very sturdy. And, in my mind a reasonable price. Especially now that the Canadian $ is at (or even a little above) the US.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Darn another comic book fantasy shattered.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:05 pm
To attach to the doorway, there are metal brackets that screw into the wall, just above the door jam. The bar just sits into them, so it’s easy to remove (as long as you don’t mind the look of metal brackets above your door :) ).
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Van, you want me green and bulky?
I prefer to be skin tone and curvy myself.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Hmmm, the wife might complain about the brackets, though I could really use a good pullup bar. She certainly wouldn’t complain about better shoulders. :)
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:07 pm
I never thought She-Hulk was all that sexy either. Must be all the time I spent in the gym.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:14 pm
Nice bar. I want one. When I started working out (about the same time I started coming here) I couldn’t do an unassisted wide grip pull up or more than like, one dip.
I can do 3 sets of 10 dips no problem now, but those wide grip pull-ups are hard. I can do 5, 3 and 2 now. Then I do weigh 195+, so…
Chin-ups are way easier.
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:17 pm
I was down to 189 in mid december, but then vacation and lack of rugby, then twisting my ankle has me back up to 197 or so….totally lame. Ankle feels better now, time to whoop myself into sexy-mode for Dublin!!
March 3rd, 2008 at 1:23 pm
Hugh and I try to workout everyday.
We lift weights using a bowflex machine at home- and we alternate muscle groups
Then Hugh runs and I bike
Every evening we do bikram yoga
weekends we also do tai chi
Honestly at this point we are putting more focus on the yoga and tai chi then the weight lifting and cardio.
I like to try to go swimming a few times a week in the summer
Hugh did the bulk up thing. He was such a cute skinny guy when I met him. Then he bulked up to the sexy muscle hunk he is now :)
Ok I need to go jump in the lake or something now

That’s sad and a little freaky. While driving in today I was listening to Slice and they have that ad for Dragon Con TV or something, but it has a clip of Gary Gygax talking. And for whatever reason it reminded me of the Simpsons episode that had Gary Gygax and Al Gore on it. LOL
March 4th, 2008 at 10:24 am
Thought it was Futurama and not the Simpsons:

Ah Futurama…bloody great series, must get round to buying the new DVD movie one of these days.
March 4th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Thanks for the correction Van. I only remember bits of the Simpsons and Futurama, and as bits they are pretty interchangable. LOL

I’m concentrating on fresh fish today.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
I just take Omega 3 supplements so I can avoid the smell.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Pet peeve, people who claim freshly killed fish doesn’t smell, when it bloody well stinks.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Don’t get me started on how bad anglers bait boxes stink.
Think I had better go for a lie down.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:09 pm
As long as no one gets started again on the fish puns.
We’ve had enough of that carp.

Van obviously isn’t a fan of sushi.
March 4th, 2008 at 1:13 pm
No fish puns just for the halibut?

March 4th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/03/04/obit.gygax.ap/index.html
CNN waited until the afternoon, but they finally posted a link about Gygax. Funny that it’s in the Technical section and not the Entertainment one.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
That’s because we geeks probably wouldn’t see it in the entertainment section.

Two street racers aren’t responsible for injuries suffered by an elderly pedestrian hit by one of their motorcycles, a judge ruled yesterday.
Justice Peter McIntyre said Harvey David, 79, was to blame for the crash which hospitalized him. He later died there after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.
But McIntyre did find both Jacob Bjerknes, 29 and Lindsey Conroy, 28, guilty of dangerous driving for speeding down busy 17 Ave S.W. during a spring evening three years ago.
McIntyre acquitted the two Calgary men of the more serious charges of criminal negligence and dangerous driving causing bodily harm, ruling David was responsible for the crash.
Bjerknes collided with David as the elderly man was trying ot cross the street, breaking his leg and fracturing two ribs.
David died days after the crash
- Calgary Sun
Wait a minute. If I want to cross the street, I now have to watch for the illegal street racers or it’s my own fault they hit me????
What’s wrong with this picture?

On DnD, I had a friend introduce me to DnD when I was 11, I was hooked. But he moved away and I didn’t get back into it until 7th grade. I bought the basic books and played a few games. But it wasn’t until I was a junior in high school that I ever got into a regular weekly game. That was awesome, 7 player game with girls and boys really entertaining. Didn’t play again until I was 28 and met someone who was heavily into Rolemaster. So my wife and I spent a summer playing Rolemaster on Saturdays with another couple and a few friends. Fun but time consuming. I still buy books about role playing, but mostly just for reading, I’m not sure I would make the best game master, but I love to play.
March 5th, 2008 at 7:10 am
That’s it for the news. Now to work :)

My husband and I try to play every Saturday. It’s not always D & D (right now it’s thrilling tales) but we try to do some form of role playing.
On Fridays we have a bunch of people over and do table top games, such as Killer Bunnies, any of the Catan games, Kill Doctor Lucky, Ticket to Ride, etc.

I know they have been claims that elections have been lost due to bad weather in the UK, where voters of one party don’t turn in the same numbers in bad weather.
Compulsory voting would stop a lot of that.
March 5th, 2008 at 7:48 am
Hi guys, how are y’all?
I’ve never played D&D. But I’m sure you’re not suprised. I’ve never played anything except solitaire.
March 5th, 2008 at 7:51 am
Van: I think they played that Coke ad during the Superbowl.
March 5th, 2008 at 7:53 am
As a teenager, I played quite a bit of D&D, stopped for a while, and then played a bit again during college. I haven’t played since, other than video games. Like Rhettro, I do enjoy picking up the manuals from time to time.
Some of the 4th ed changes sound interesting. I might have to give it a try, but considering the lack of free time that I have, I don’t see how.

I was kinda thinking as you moved around to each room or whatever you have to have sex with everything in the room in order to pass.. and you get points for different methods, positions that sort of thing.
And you pick up toys as you go. You start with a box of condoms and handcuffs or something like that. LOL
And when you picked what you are, you can have differnt levels of perversion or something
Wow I need to make this game up!
