    sixteen!

  2. Ed from Texas Says:

    Wow, there must be a lot of comments stuck in limbo for Van to claim number 16.

    Oh, wait. i see what you did there…….

    :)

  3. EssBee Says:

    Morning, Deadpan!

    It’s sunny in Longmont, and there’s snow on the peaks. Snow in June!

  4. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Morning Pan!

    Oh, my What’s that big shiny thing in the sky?

  5. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Yeah, EssBee, we got a bit of snow on the outskirts of the city last night as well. Not uncommon with Calgary.

  6. EssBee Says:

    TEB, my partner’s brother and his family live North of Calgary in Hobbema. Do you know it? I’ve only been up there once, in June, but it was beautiful.

  7. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    I know of it, EssBee, and I think I may have driven through it going to Wetaskewin, but beyond that, no. It’s actually closer to Edmonton than to Calgary.

  8. EssBee Says:

    Right, that’s it! It is a drive-through type of place! They live on the Cree Reserve.

    We hope to visit again some time — maybe when fuel costs decrease a bit, say 2015?

  9. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Sure, maybe by then, your dollar will be worth more than ours again and you’ll get more bang for your buck that way as well :)

    ****BSG Spoiler Alert!!!****

    *****You have been warned!*****

    So I just heard an interview with Jamie Bamber (Lee Adama on BSG) and he was asked what was the significance that Tigh impregnated the 6.

    His answer was, “the lesson to be learned is you’re never too old or grizzled to be able to hook up with a young super model”

    I like that answer :)

  17. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    I always thought Alanis looked better with short hair. Has nothing to do with the current conversation or her music. Just a personal observation.

  18. ditto Says:

    I don’t think I ever saw her in short hair, but it seems she would look better that way.

  19. ditto Says:

    Jack’s getting good rattling off urls.

  20. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Haven’t heard the episode yet. Probably won’t be able to until the weekend.

  21. ditto Says:

    Dub going off the deep-end? Surely, you jest, Jack! ;)

    Good morning, Deadpan!

    My way of fighting the Evil Empire, AKA the Deathstar, AKA Evil Inc., is to take my team to do a Habitat for Humanity Day. That’s where I’ll be today, so not online.

    In the news today:

    WELLINGTON - One of the last shipments to a US research base in Antarctica before the onset of winter darkness was a year’s supply of condoms.

    Bill Henriksen, the manager of the McMurdo base station, said nearly 16,500 condoms were delivered last month and would be made available free of charge, to staff throughout the year to avoid potential embarrassment of having to buy them.

    The base only has a skeleton staff through the long winter.

    “Since everybody knows everyone, it becomes a little bit uncomfortable,” Henriksen told the Southland Times newspaper.

    -Calgary Sun

    Let’s see… 16,500 divided by 365 is a little over 45 condoms a day for the year. Either a “skeleton staff” is larger than I thought, or they REALLY have little else to do in Antarctica.

    Not here in Texas. Summer is breathing down my neck.

    It’s going to be a wild weekend for me. And by wild, I mean getting through my daughter’s ballet recital today and getting her to summer camp tomorrow, as well as getting my wife to the airport tomorrow.

  131. EssBee Says:

    Morning, Deadpan.

    Nice summer day here. I’ve got a handyman here today, being handy. I’m doing a bit of gardening, but just a bit.

    When you get back, remind me to ask you why a gay, Rugby team. Since you are married … there must be a story there and though I am curious (no, not like that!) I keep forgetting to ask.

    Van- RE: season finale.
    Yes.
    Yes I really expected to see a half buried Statue of Liberty.

  150. Ed from Texas Says:

    JJ and Van - I’m not yet convinced that it wasn’t actually in there somewhere.

    I’ll just say this - the resolution of the storyline had better not involve time travel….or I’ll have to call in a death threat to Dubshack.

  151. Ed from Texas Says:

    Man, even Tony and the gang at Backseat Producers are chiming in on Slandapalooza with a review:

    http://www.backseatproducers.com/2008/06/14/theatrical-review-the-happening/

    OK, so it’s actually for “The Happening”. But, as I read the review, in generic terms, it could have easily been for Southland Tales.

  152. ditto Says:

    Awesome, JfS!!!

  153. EssBee Says:

    Van, you were NOT alone! We actually talked about that while watching!

    Awesome, JfS!

    Way to go JfS. Hope you had fun.

    I’ve enjoyed having my folks and my niece home this week. With the worst behind me at work I was able to decompress a little this weekend. I think I gained 3 pounds between the steak and See’s candy. LOL Oh well. My wife and son bought me a PSP for Father’s Day. It’s pretty cool. :) I imagine I’ll still be a little sparce around DeadPan until tomorrow.

  155. Dubshack Says:

    I heard the trees did it.

  156. jackmangan Says:

    So have we already been spoilered on M. Night’s new one? Or is it already as spoiled as last February’s milk?
    It couldn’t possibly be as bad as The Village??

    Jack - I think it looks scary!

  159. EssBee Says:

    Two recommendations:

    1. Blade Runner - Director’s Cut

    2. The American Way graphic novel

  160. Rhettro Says:

    Taking a mental break from my deadline. Waiting for a few phone calls.

    M. Night movies I liked:

    Sixth Sense
    Signs
    The Lady in the Water

    Movies I didn’t like:
    Unbreakable

    Movies I don’t intend to see:
    The Village
    The Happening

    M. Night’s formula works sometimes and falls flat others. He is one of the few directors where I let the reviews alone decide if I want to see the film or not. I know the spoiler for “The Happening” and I don’t plan on seeing it.

    In other news, I’m more than halfway through “The Watchmen” graphic novel.

  161. Vanamonde Says:

    I won’t get started on Bladerunner since I don’t want raise my BP or get into an arguement with JJ.

    I see the first episode of True Blood has hit the torrent networks:

    http://www.mininova.org/tor/1507818

    That’s the series based on Charlaine Harris series novels with Sookie Stackhouse as lead character.

  162. EssBee Says:

    I don’t want to start anything, Van! I LOVE those Charlaine Harris books — thanks for the link. I wonder if Evil Empire will notice me sitting here watching.

    Rhettro, The American Way is right up your alley if you like Watchmen.

  164. Rhettro Says:

    Thanks EssBee, I’ll keep a look out for The American Way. I’ve been enjoying Watchmen so far. I picked up a Star Wars graphic novel a couple of weeks ago. I hope to get into it soon as well. Plus, I’ve only watched the Theatrical Release of BR, so far. I need to watch the recently re-edited Director’s Cut. Unicorns mean nothing, but if there were some electric sheep. ;)

    I found “6th Sense” enjoyable although I saw the “surprise” coming from about 20 miles away.

    I thought “Signs” was enjoyable as well, although just an OK film. I’ve no urge to see it again.

    I think “Unbreakable” may be my favorite of all the M films. Seems to me though that there was a movie that came out before this one where A guy survives a plane crash and thinks he can’t be killed. I recall that one being more disconcerting.

    Oh … and Van, you come across a turtle in the desert. It’s on it’s back …

    Woodpecker From Mars - Faith No More

    “Unbreakable” would be my favorite M. Night film too. If anyone cares.

  173. Rhettro Says:

    You know what would have made “Unbreakable” better? If Sam L. had a robot arm. Just sayin’.

  174. Vanamonde Says:

    I wasn’t expecting SLJ to be the villain though in Unbreakable.

  175. justa J0e Says:

    Van - that was the film I was thinking of. The crash sequence seemed a little too real for my comfort.

    Rhett - what would have made “Unbreakable” better? PUPPETS!!!!

    Jack - we ALWAYS care, daddio . :)

    I too know the “spoiler” for the Happening. While it sounds like a potentially interesting premise, it seems to have been poorly executed.

    Deadpan… we don’t need to show you no stinking Deadpans….

    Gooooooood Morning Pan!

  186. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    So, some time last night, we had a stupid motorcyclist race through our neighbourhood and hit a deer. Apparently he managed to kill the deer and his motorcycle went up in flames but still managed to walk away from the accident himself.

    First of all, everybody in our neighbourhood knows to watch out for the deer.

    Second, while I like motorcycles, I HATE stupid people on them. It should have been the other way around, with the deer walking away from the accident…. poor thing :(

  187. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Finally heard the DP unshow. We have a loooong way to go to get to the comment goal. So to that end, I’ll do famous movie quotes - adjusted.

    I’ll start with the famous, and often misquoted

    “Deadpans? We ain’t got no deadpans. We don’t need no deadpans. I don’t have to show you any stinkin’ deadpans!”

  188. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    A - A Few Good Men

    You want answers?

    I want the deadpans!
    You can’t handle the deadpans!

    C - Caine Mutiny (1954 Humphrey Bogart version)

    You tell the men there are four ways of doing things on this ship: The right way, the wrong way, the Navy way, and the deadpan way. They do things the deadpan way, and we’ll get along just fine.

  196. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful deadpan.

  199. The Energizer Bunny Says:

    I know there is the oft misquoted “Play it again, Sam”, but that is wrong. He never said that. The closest was when Ingred Bergman said,

    Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.”

    What Bogart actually said was,

    You know what I want to hear.
    No, I don’t.
    You played it for her, you can play it for me!
    Well, I don’t think I can remember
    If she can stand it, I can! Play it!
