Morning Pan, at work, an extremely dull grey day in prospect.
March 6th, 2008 at 3:49 am
Wow, I get to finish in the top three this week!
March 6th, 2008 at 4:28 am
fourth!
March 6th, 2008 at 4:59 am
I’ll plead the fifth.
Fine show this week and great content from all. I shall be most interested to hear the upcoming expose on the podcast “community”.
And, while I’m not familiar with the film, I would be surprised if “Bring ‘em Young” would have fewer females than Brigham Young.
You’ll just have to tune in and listen for yourself to have a clue what that means.
March 6th, 2008 at 6:00 am
Morning Pan!
How are we this bright, sunny Thursday morning?
Now to hit the showers.
March 6th, 2008 at 6:47 am
Yep, it’s sure to have all the trappings of a VH1 special. Jack Mangan’s Behind the Podcast.
March 6th, 2008 at 7:25 am
I loved the scene when Jack was roid ragin in the late 90s and he beat the crap out of the Pets.com puppet, I totally didn’t see it coming.
March 6th, 2008 at 7:29 am
Neither did that puppet, Thomas.
March 6th, 2008 at 7:54 am
Awwwwwwwwww. That’s sweet, Jack!
March 6th, 2008 at 7:56 am
Well, I’m showered, fed and even shopped. Now to listen to podcasts while I work
March 6th, 2008 at 7:57 am
Trucker: nice twist on Hillary’s commercial. lol
March 6th, 2008 at 7:59 am
Actually that was me doing the Hillary commercial. Sounds like it was well timed. *lol*
March 6th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Ooops. Sorry, Dub. Still funny as hell.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:05 am
I AM A HONKY!
March 6th, 2008 at 8:17 am
Yeah Dub,
Your Hillary parady had me laughing pretty hard on my commute this morning.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:19 am
And apologies Jack, I promised content but didn’t deliver. I was going to do some “contents of my…” and a stolen paragraph, but couldn’t find the ideal recording situation. Good thing everyone else stepped up to fill the void. I need to collect my thoughts this weekend and send you some polished product.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:22 am
What?! No do overs????
Crap!
March 6th, 2008 at 8:27 am
I like the closing music, Jack.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:34 am
Yeah Van, for spelling flavour the “correct” way
March 6th, 2008 at 8:37 am
This is pretty funny.
http://tinyurl.com/342fo7
Why is this funny? Because I grew up with the author and we were casual friends. Hawker City is based on the small town we grew up in, there were a few “Frosty Queens” I could think of in that town.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:43 am
He also wrote this movie.
http://tinyurl.com/2o9a28
Again based in Kansas. In one line Daniel Stern mentions the small town we grew up in. My wife and I both laughed out loud about that.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:46 am
Still waiting for that CD of your music, Jack.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:47 am
http://tinyurl.com/39v7s9
And this movie about the sexual exploits of a young architectural student. Um wait a second…
March 6th, 2008 at 8:47 am
This is a pretty cool song: The Duke Spirit’s “Lassoo”. It’s the KEXP song of the Day.
http://www.digitalwell.washington.edu/dw/1/51/80/800e8b0d-1e7b-4ae8-9d28-c4d0fa9bbc05.mp3
It’s like a modernized Spaghetti Western song.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:48 am
I thought it was “flava”
March 6th, 2008 at 8:49 am
Haven’t seen either of those movies, Rhettro.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:50 am
Jack, I had a tear in my eye at the end, while I stood with my hand over my heart…
Of course, now you have to placate the other listeners - so does that mean next full cast it will be the English national anthem?
March 6th, 2008 at 8:51 am
Pretty low distribution, but I do highly recommend “Dead Simple.” It’s actually a pretty good movie. I would pass on “Kept” though.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:53 am
I’m disillusioned that I don’t know about the disillusionment.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:54 am
I’ll be disillustioned if we don’t get a Flash parody of BTM.
March 6th, 2008 at 8:57 am
“Jack Mangan, was held in high esteem by all of his podcast listeners, unbeknown to them that he actually faked his Steven King interview.”

Cool photos Jeremy. I gotta read Watchmen ASAP.

JfS: I’m pretty excited.
March 6th, 2008 at 9:05 am
So, why are there nipples on Ozy’s suit and not on Night Owl’s?
March 6th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Owls don’t have nipples, Duh!

I figured such large breasts deserved an extra e, right?
March 6th, 2008 at 10:34 am
dis-sci: Thanks for getting the Tootsie Pop joke
Rhett: No worries, no apologies necessary. Life comes before podcasting.
Thanks for the comments about the music ditto and TEB, but I didn’t write “O Canada”. I think that was Alanis Morisette.
That’s Debbie from East Mesa, folks. Deadpan was just ending its podcast day in Canada.
Watchmen film is actually going to happen - w00t!
March 6th, 2008 at 10:48 am
Jeremy because the US company deserved it because they had a crappier product that didn’t work as well by that logic the American car industry…er. Actually there is an American Manufacturer on the contract as well.
March 6th, 2008 at 10:53 am
So todays word I cannot pronounce properly is:
ephemeral
Looking forward to Watchmen movie, just keeping my fingers crossed they don’t screw it up.
Oh and I would go with Land of Hope and Glory over God Save The Queen, any day..
March 6th, 2008 at 10:55 am
Further thought if it were Halliburton who had the contract for the last 50 years would you have the same opinion?
The review provcess from the stories I read that in the 9 categories they were judging the Boeing product missed the requirements by a large margin, the other companies aircraft nailed the product specs, so good for them I tend to say.
March 6th, 2008 at 10:56 am
I remember there being a lot of ill feeling when the MOD canceled the Nimrod AEW3 project and bought US AWACs. Even though the MOD good reasons for doing so,

March 6th, 2008 at 11:00 am
I don’t know, Van. I always liked the Sex Pistols’ version of “God Save the Queen”.
March 6th, 2008 at 11:02 am
Thomas: I agree. Tradition isn’t a good enough basis to award contracts. Or to conduct science, for that matter.

Deadpan!
From a recent John Buccigross column:
“The purpose of youth sports is to teach the value of exercise as it pertains to health and its byproduct of an energetic existence. It is to teach the value of improvement. We improve when we are nurtured, loved, respected and “pushed” by enthusiasm, energy and affection. There is no upside to demeaning, embarrassing or yelling at a preadolescent athlete in terms of winning and losing. Have organization and order, yes. But they should all play.”

Well I saw ‘The Bank Job’ tonight at the cinema. It was slagged off by a lot of critics, but I fond it enjoyable enough.
March 8th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
LOOOONG day. But extremely rewarding. Details later.
March 8th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
The Sprots Banquet was fun. We ate really good pizza, and handed out silly, goofy prizes to everyone on the team. Mine was for “Most Improved,” and I got a toy bow and arrow set, because my soccer-team nickname is “Bowflex.” The pizza place had an arcade, and we played DDR.
March 9th, 2008 at 1:17 am
Happy daylight savings time!
March 9th, 2008 at 1:19 am
Hugh sez: fuck daylight savings time
Yeah, its really too much sun. We don’t like too much sun. A little sun is ok, but c’mon.. does it really need t be sunny until 9 at night?
Hugh sez: No, it doesn’t
agreed
March 9th, 2008 at 1:24 am
smarty Hottie® reasons day light savings time sucks
1. We like more darkness
2. You have a friend over who has to leave at 3:30 in the morning and suddenly at 2 am when you’re having a really great fucking time with your friend and its 3am and they need to start thinking about leaving.
Hugh sez: Big boo!
Boo!!!
3. We don’t like having sunlight until 9pm… 7pm is just fine. 9pm is just too mucho. Night time is when our creative sides flourish, you take away our night time and you take away our creative time.
Hugh sez: we need to live in Alaska

we are intrigued by your Sprots banquet
Congrats on most improved!!!
Little known Andrea factoids:
1. She used to play soccer when she was younger
2. she was a goalie
3. she was actually pretty good but then she hit puberty and stopped
The reason I was good though was because I had trained for years playing goalie when we would play soccer at home- my 2 brothers against me and my dad. My brothers played ruthlessly and never went easy on me so I toughened up and girls were no match for me

UNDERWEAR!!!!!!
the word of the day is underwear. Every time you hear or say underwear you have to scream
night for real this time
night mush
night underwear
*mwa*
March 9th, 2008 at 4:34 am
And, at last, a day of rest. 14 hours yesterday trying to bring gas prices back down a little for all my friends in Deadpan land.
Today - rest, for tomorrow it picks up again in earnest.
March 9th, 2008 at 6:23 am
Well considering how many times I actually hear or say the word underwear in my day to day life…I don’t think I will be doing much screaming today.
March 9th, 2008 at 11:58 am
TSH: Thank you! This is my first time being on an organized sports team, ever. It’s an intramural indoor soccer team. We’ve probably played three or four games against other teams, and had a bunch of practice sessions. We play on Sunday nights, and tonight is our last game.
Last night’s Sprots Banquet was held at a local pizza restaurant, to celebrate the end of this quarter of school and our team bond. In case you missed my earlier post, it was a Sprots Banquet because our team manager made a typo when he created the Facebook event page.

So I contemplating selling some items for the first time on eBay. Not terribly thrilled. I’ve got an amp, PA system, speaker stands and a wireless mic. About $1800 worth of big items. I want to get close to $900 for the lot. I’m disheartened by the amount of BS I need to wade through to make this happen.

Marshall was actually dullish, with good food.
March 9th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
Rhettro,
You may have better luck with Craigslist. Sold my truck with an ad I posted on it last year.
Ebay seems to have degenerated from a true auction site into a large flea market full of full time sellers.
March 9th, 2008 at 7:15 pm
Looks like a quiet weekend here at the bar. I bet business picks up come the morrow. Though, I’ll either be busy continuing to fight the fire from the weekend, or catching up on my main project that has gone dormant in the meantime.
Forget time travel, I just want a time producing machine. Who’s never said “I just need a little more time”
Of course, such a piece of plotonium would pretty much render every sci-fi show for the last 50 years moot.
March 9th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Hi Deadpan. Later Deadpan.
March 9th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
(where did my [driveby posting] tags go?
March 9th, 2008 at 7:54 pm
You just blew by so fast, they didn’t have time to deploy…
March 9th, 2008 at 9:28 pm
I just said underwear
March 9th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
under where?
March 10th, 2008 at 12:43 am
Amy your welcome
thats awesome. I hope your game went well last night.
Speaking of soccer…You should see the movie Bend It Like Beckham (if you haven’t already)
I’ve never been on an organized sports (or sprot) team before myself. I was on the soccer team with my school, but we were pretty young and didn’t do that many games, It was really more of a youth social thing around soccer.
I let myself get talked into a volleyball league once but got tired of being eye candy so I never did that again. It was actually fun, but we played on the meat market beaches here in Chicago and it was just disgusting with the guys leering at us and the comments and ugh. Shame cause I actually like volleyball.
Hugh used to do the inner city basketball thing years ago.. Not really organized, but would hang out with the dudes at the city parks and play basketball every night. Same guys would come out every night, every couple nights and play. Mix up teams and stuff. Hugh used to love doing that, but life got in the way ya know?
Ok.. not sure why I just went into all of that :).. Oh I know why its 3:30 in the morning and Im fucking exhausted and talking gibberish
March 10th, 2008 at 12:44 am
[underwear] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA [/underwear]
March 10th, 2008 at 12:45 am
what if I told you guys I wasn’t wearing any underwear right now…
*cheesy porn music starts*
March 10th, 2008 at 12:50 am
yep. yep, yep… *sigh*
it’s almost 4am and I am talking to myself on Deadpan.
It was a slow weekend here, you guys are going to have to pick up our slack for us for a while. I think we will try to play by play next weekend but then we are going to be taking one of those breaks I mentioned before. Won’t be around for 2-3 weeks probably.
If anyone is reading this, please send good vibes our way during that time, we will be needing them.
Our weekend was quite hectic here actually. Lots o’ shit be happening here. Got a lot done this weekend which was good.
March 10th, 2008 at 12:50 am
Well after that post I’m so glad I have ice cubes handy.
Morning Pan, the UK is getting a battering weather wise:

Which I’ll not even attempt to do in ASCii art, a man got to know his own limitations.
March 10th, 2008 at 12:52 am
Ok. I need to go visit the sandman now
night pan
night cockles
night mush
night underwear
[underwear] AAAAAAAAA [/underwear]
I like using underwear tags.. it pleases me
March 10th, 2008 at 12:53 am
thanks Van
have a good day over there
March 10th, 2008 at 3:09 am
It will be interesting to see how the [underwear] tag is rendered in IE8, since it’s supposed to be standards compliant and all.
March 10th, 2008 at 6:57 am
Now you can’t complain about leering and not wearing underwear so close together. LOL
Ed: After reading all the red tape over at eBay to get anything of any worth sold, I think I am going to take your advice and list on Craigslist. My new strategy is to list my big items on Craigs and try to sell some smaller items over on eBay. Then after 4 months or so if I haven’t sold via Craigslist, I’ll put them on eBay. My goal is to get rid of a bunch of old gear so I can get a new snazzy amp.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:05 am

Why can’t I go back to sleep?
Stupid work.

“Green Grass and High Tides” sucks on drums.
Over.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:35 am
Are you refering to Rock Band? LOL I made it through my first batch of songs on drums, I was struggling on the last song. I don’t know what it is but I feel like I’ve been digging myself out of a hole the last few weekends. Lots of choirs, OT at work etc. Not much free time to devote to Rock Band. =P One of these days I’m going to have a weekend to myself. Some day.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:42 am
Yep, I am. GG&HT is the last song. It’s like “Free Bird” except you haven’t heard of the song.
I like the song, but on drums it gets difficult, especially at the end. I’m trying to finish it on medium, but I get pretty tired towards the end. Who needs WiiFit when you have drums on Rock Band? lol
March 10th, 2008 at 7:43 am
TSH: I have seen Bend It Like Beckham. Good movie.
Last night, our team one by default because not enough registered players showed up from the other team. We played a scrimmage game anyway, and lost. We still had fun, though.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:49 am
I like Bend It too. Good movie.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:51 am
Of course, I’m waiting for Jack’s movie: “Bend It Like Deadpan”.
March 10th, 2008 at 7:57 am
I need to add Bend It to my Netflix que. I always wanted to see it, but forgot about it. LOL
I was going to say Rock Band’s drums are a work out. I alternate feet for the bass pedal otherwise I start to cramp.
March 10th, 2008 at 8:04 am
Rhettro: This wired article has some really good tips.
http://blog.wired.com/games/2008/01/rock-band-featu.html
I’m still working on some of them, but the advanced kick pedal tip really cuts down on the cramps.
March 10th, 2008 at 8:23 am
Thanks ditto, I’ll take a look at it over lunch today.
March 10th, 2008 at 8:57 am
I love xkcd. I have said that before, haven’t I. lol

Personal favorite is kb, though you have to remember the FDIV bug.

catching up, part 1:
Randall Munroe is a twisted genius.
That’s great about your sprots team, Bowflex! The soccer movie will have to be called “Bend it like Bowen”.
We had a justa j0e sighting!
Good vibes to TSH! AZ is blissfully daylights-savings-adjustment-free.
March 10th, 2008 at 9:42 am
catching up, part 2:
Rhett: I agree with Ed. Avoid eBay altogether. Use Craiglist for everything. AZCentral must have a classifieds section too.
Ed, please get those oil prices down. Just don’t overwork yourself.
We had a JohnBoze sighting!
Van: I’d love to see the wordpress-distorted ascii smoke signals.
Thomas: Under there.

I like how I call my doctor today, tell the nurse about the drug overdose and the panic attacks and inability to drive places and how even in deep meditation, or deep sedation, I’m still feeling this uneasy feeling in my gut like something physically might be wrong… And she says the Doc will call me tonight.
Then I get back to work and decided to make some more of this “stomach ease” tea I’ve been drinking for the past couple of weeks. And out of happenstance look at the ingredients list to find that it contains barley malt… the lesser known twin to my wheat allergy.
Well at least now I know. Of course its the chicken and the egg at this point. I started drinking this tea because my stomach was hurting in the first place… So now that I’m removing the thing that was supposed to help but was further hurting my stomach, I’m still back to what was hurting it in the first place. And in time and observation terms, the last few weeks worth of symptoms mean absolutely nothing. How do I explain that one to my doctor.

I love how deadpan always pulls me in when im at school… Just grabs me
by the ear, punches me in the face and drop kicks me right to the site.
March 11th, 2008 at 5:09 am
Maybe you should listen to something more relaxing..like white noise on a dead channel.
March 11th, 2008 at 6:20 am
I haven’t posted in a few days… So i am posting…
March 11th, 2008 at 6:57 am
Hey Dub, were you in WordPress Hell? Didn’t see your post until today. Anyway, glad you figured out the tea thing. Perhaps you can substitute green tea in it’s place?
March 11th, 2008 at 7:17 am
I found another tea this morning that has barley in it, I’d been drinking it all weekend, but my wife bought it for me on Friday… So I’m still no closer to the source.
March 11th, 2008 at 7:23 am
How do you figure out what’s in a tea?
March 11th, 2008 at 8:13 am
Hmmm… My tea says that it has dried tree leaves in it. Who knew?
March 11th, 2008 at 8:19 am
You have to cut back on that T(HC).
March 11th, 2008 at 8:28 am
Would that mean Dub was pot tea trained?
Holy crap, that’s not funny at all. . .
March 11th, 2008 at 8:30 am
Can you make tea from pot? I’ve heard of a tea pot before, but I thought it was something else. No wonder the British are so fond of the stuff.
March 11th, 2008 at 8:37 am
Mr. Pot, there’s a Mr. Kettle on the line for you….

I haven’t been listening to much music lately, mostly Gamma Ray while jogging. That and the Six String Bliss podcast. LOL
March 11th, 2008 at 9:28 am
I think when you look up “honky” in the dictionary it says something to the effect of “one who listens to Gamma Ray and/or Helloween.” LOL

Teresa emailed me to let me know that our next dinner out with her friends happens the first week of May. She says odds are we’ll be eating at Barrios, which is an awesome Mexican food place. Of course it’s 15 minutes before lunch and now I can’t stop thinking of food. I wish she would have emailed me two hours from now. =P
One of my favorite styles of food is Southwest cooking. People have been telling me to try Richardson’s but I haven’t yet. I’ve lived in Phoenix over three years I haven’t eating there. Time to re-evalutate my priorities.
