“Flash Gordon appeals to me because I would like to be familiar with the stories that inspired George Lucas.”
Is that how we explain the prequels? :)
May 21st, 2009 at 4:45 am
Morning Pan.
Board is back up. Yeah!
May 21st, 2009 at 4:54 am
I hated PeeWee’s playhouse.
May 21st, 2009 at 5:00 am
Good morning, Deadpan!
Today is the last day of my short workweek! Hurrah!
I hope you all have a wonderful day.
Great episode, Jack. Great story, JB and Amy, and wonderful content everyone!

I could never get into Pilates. I prefer weights and aerobics.
(obviously I’m listening to LLAP :) )
May 21st, 2009 at 5:02 am
You’re pretty limber, Cj. Would Dan agree? ;)
May 21st, 2009 at 5:02 am
Ed: :-D Not exactly what I meant, of course. He’s been inspired by them from the (real-world-time) beginning, or so I heard.
EssBee: Thank you so much! :-)

I’m on the ball with show notes today. Trackback link from my WP blog should be showing up any minute now.

Cj’s a bucket?
May 21st, 2009 at 5:19 am
I always want to take a comb to Twilight guys hair whenever I see him.
May 21st, 2009 at 5:34 am
That might be difficult with the werewolf…
May 21st, 2009 at 5:35 am
I’m actually listening to the Start Trek audio book. Explains a few things missing from the book.
May 21st, 2009 at 5:43 am
Good morning, Pan.
Nothing like hearing myself drunk first thing in the morning. :D Makes me want to run out and get schnockered right now.
Not gonna do it though. Taking my kids to tour a fire station instead.

When I first heard of Sherilyn Fenn it gave me hope that I wasn’t a complete freak because I’d never met another person in the world with the name “Cherylyn”
May 21st, 2009 at 5:46 am
I can relate to that, Cj :)
May 21st, 2009 at 5:57 am
CD: DP shownotes for FB… why did I volunteer for this?
May 21st, 2009 at 6:07 am
I’d play Jack, but I’m at MA on Thursday evenings until eight.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:15 am
Notes are done. Anybody who has suggested changes let me know (except for Cj. She’s admin so can make her own changes :) )
May 21st, 2009 at 6:17 am
The word of the day is “delicious”.
This episode of Deadpan is delicious.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:26 am
Off to take kitty to the vet. She’s going to love me :)

TWotD is rather unfortunate though WOLF.
May 21st, 2009 at 9:44 am
TEB and Cj you are right TWotD’s.
cough
May 21st, 2009 at 9:50 am
Alright Van The Word of the Day…
May 21st, 2009 at 10:18 am
And we’re back, at least temporarily for me :)
Looked as some of the notes for a palooza. LJ, while would agree Head would be an interesting palooza, it is a very… trippy movie and I’m not sure how the Pan at large would react to it.
May 21st, 2009 at 10:19 am
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz for me.
May 21st, 2009 at 10:23 am
Remember you are unique just liek everyone else.
May 21st, 2009 at 10:29 am

Ok. looking back at some of my comments you can tell I’m drugged out of my gourd.
Jack, since you record on Wednesdays I realize my being gone Thursday evenings really doesn’t matter. You can put me down for your recordings.
May 21st, 2009 at 11:02 am
High on cheese?
May 21st, 2009 at 11:20 am
Thanks Bunny. :) What was that thing about show notes in FB?
May 21st, 2009 at 11:37 am
Since I’m usually around Thursday morning my time/ Wednesday evening DP time, you can put me on the recording list Jack.
May 21st, 2009 at 11:42 am
I can answer for TEB. On Facebook there is a Fans of Jack Mangan’s Deadpan group (setup by TEB?) . TEB has posted the show notes for this weeks DP episode.
May 21st, 2009 at 11:43 am
Ah yes it was created by TEB..damn my swiss cheese of a memory.

Jack, I sent them to you. they were just done on notepad
May 21st, 2009 at 11:54 am
I sent e-mail to Jack as well with a screen shot of the notes earlier as well. He’s going to be inundated with the same thing! :D At least we are thorough!
May 21st, 2009 at 11:56 am
I’m reminded of that bit in Salmon of Doubt, where Douglas Adams list all the ways he can be contacted.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:21 pm
Just bought, and then hooked up anew Blu-Ray player.
My husband is going to kill me.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:22 pm
On the upside, we’ll be able to watch a movie tonight (I got Valkyrie) since I can’t do MA tonight.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:22 pm
Well this maybe the point where your MA training comes in handy!
Standalone or PS3?
May 21st, 2009 at 12:28 pm
I looked at that “which badass character are you” on FB. I saw the first question and decided it wasn’t for me so didn’t answer any of them
May 21st, 2009 at 12:29 pm
Stand alone, Van. I thought about a PS3 but they were too expensive ($500 vs $200 for a blu-ray). We wouldn’t play the games as I tend to lean heavily towards PC games, and hubby usually just plays chess (although he did dig out his old version of Doom because we got the board game)
May 21st, 2009 at 12:30 pm
I am a pavlov dog, woof!
May 21st, 2009 at 12:31 pm
hmmm, I wonder if I can hide all the boxes so he won’t notice the DVD player is new?
May 21st, 2009 at 12:32 pm
I don’t get the reference, Van. What are you pavlovian to?
May 21st, 2009 at 12:35 pm
Oh a lot of stuff on FB TEB..especially lollipops!
May 21st, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Ok TEB I’m curious, I was rather underwhelmed by BluRay, but I only have a 32inch LCD TV, why did you the BR route rather than a new upscaling DVD player?
May 21st, 2009 at 12:38 pm
+go
May 21st, 2009 at 12:40 pm
I can’t speak for Britian, Van but here it’s actually getting harder and harder to find normal DVD movies. A number of stores are slowly fazing out regular DVD’s.
It was actually difficult to do Blu-Ray. We have a 50″ TV but it is an older one so is only 480p/1080i H, not the new fancy, smancy 1080p. We have our (CDN version of)PVR hooked up to one of the HD inputs, the other input on the TV is DVI, which is compatible to nothing. I had to go to The Source (they bought out Radio Shack here in Canada) and get a HDMI to DVI converter.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:43 pm
Well I enjoyed Valkyrie when I saw it at the cinema.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:46 pm
Can’t speak to the movie (yet), we wanted it for all the extras on the real history the movie is based on.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:51 pm
I know this is fake but it still looks kind of cool
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa7ck5mcd1o
I’d see it.
May 21st, 2009 at 12:53 pm

Don’t be ashamed, Jack. That’s what slaves, er, I mean, delegating is for :)
May 21st, 2009 at 12:58 pm
Well, 3:00 time to take more meds and then veg out on the couch.
May 21st, 2009 at 1:03 pm
[Inappropriate response goes here]
Well thank you for creating the show notes, Bunny. :) I might just steal those.
May 21st, 2009 at 1:45 pm
steal away, Jack
May 21st, 2009 at 1:57 pm
I have no feeling in my right arm….
Oh look, a frost warning for tonight. What happened to spring?
May 21st, 2009 at 1:58 pm
It’s having a holiday.
May 21st, 2009 at 2:19 pm
Yeah, some place warm
May 21st, 2009 at 2:28 pm
Did you sleep on your right arm, Bunny?
May 21st, 2009 at 2:29 pm
It’s apparently gone south….
May 21st, 2009 at 2:36 pm
No jack. I’ve got a viral infection on my hand (hence the drugs) and it seems to follow a nerve either giving me shooting pain up my arm or making it numb. I consider myself lucky, I’m numb right now.
May 21st, 2009 at 3:20 pm

JB, I listened first thing in the morning. I always have to listen to each show at least twice, sometimes more.
Once to hear what’s there then again to catch what I missed.
Three times if I just need more of Jack’s sexy voice! *swooon*
May 21st, 2009 at 3:32 pm

For the ‘palooza, I vote for anything other than Lost Highway.
May 21st, 2009 at 4:37 pm
I’ve never done Pilates, but I used to do a wee bit of yoga a couple of times a week. Very relaxing and enjoyable after working out and training very hard in martial arts. Worth the time overall, IMO.
May 21st, 2009 at 4:41 pm
I need to add some yoga to my routine. Thanks for the reminder. Looking for free videos. right. now.
May 21st, 2009 at 5:16 pm
Up where the smoke is
All billered and curled
‘Tween pavement and stars
Is the chimney sweep world
When the’s ‘ardly no day
Nor ‘ardly no night
There’s things ‘alf in shadow
And ‘alf way in light
On the roof tops of London
Coo, what a sight!
May 21st, 2009 at 5:17 pm
maybe I should have phoned that in

Ok, now back to the movie
May 21st, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Sorry, stream = streak
May 21st, 2009 at 5:52 pm
:)
I like the “Stream” better.
Can’t decide if that means he is an Ace on live Internet broadcasts or if it’s a “bladder control” thing.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:01 pm
As long as he isn’t a Ghostbuster.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:02 pm
Well, I’m glad to know that I hadn’t just been mishearing that song all these years.
Yes, Joe, you should call that in.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:16 pm
Here in Florida, the approach of summer is heralded by tropical thunderstorms.
I agree with Ed. Stolen lyrics = good.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:40 pm
Movie was pretty good. Now watching hubby play with the features of the new machine.
May 21st, 2009 at 6:50 pm

May 22nd, 2009 at 12:23 am
I don’t think Van is a Dalek. . . . For one thing, he can go up and down stairs.
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:47 am
Morning Pan, if you are going to phone those lyrics in JJ I hope your cockney accent is at least as good as Dick Van Dyke’s.
cough
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:52 am
Oh and it pains me to point this out…really it does..but the Dalek’s aren’t robots..as they are just the life support machinery for the mutants inside.
I’ll get my coat.
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:55 am
If you have any fondness for the Tom Baker Era of Doctor Who, Robots of Death is well worth a rental if you can get it in North America.
May 22nd, 2009 at 2:41 am
Never be ashamed of truth, Van.
Now, Terminators! Those are definitely robots. Maybe Van is one of them from the future :)
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:26 am
Morning Pan.
Tell me why… I get up and weigh myself, then I have a shower and weigh myself again. Why am I always a half pound less after the shower? I find it hard to believe I had a half pound of dirt that needs to be washed away every morning.
Terminators are more cyborg than robot Ed.
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:48 am
Morning Pan!
It seems that yesterday when I was busy, DP dropped…. figures. Now I’m behind again.
TEB: Do you do “anything” in the shower that might reduce your volume of bodily fluids and thus reduce your weight?
Vanamonde: Doctor Who: The Robots of Death is available as a watch instantly from Netflix. And, yes, worth it. I like Leela.
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:49 am
Just my luck that the Comment Nazis don’t like it when you change your name… Must remember that.
Morning again Pan
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:53 am
Meetings I have missed:
The one where it was decided that women having long fingernails is attractive.
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:54 am
Actually, would those then be Nipple Nazis? There’s something strangely appealing and frightening about that term…
May 22nd, 2009 at 4:54 am
Morning LJ
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:03 am
The post with your new name just goes into the moderation queue.
Morning, Pan. Sitting down to do finances. Ugh.
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:16 am
Yes today I opened a savings account (rather than a current account).
Expect the apocalpyse any day soon.
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:17 am
Wow, Van. What are you saving for?
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:49 am
Well I’m sure I had a good reason at the time.
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:57 am
*teary eyed*, My Van, all growed up with his saving account and all. *pats Vanamond on the head*
:LOL:
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:04 am
Well, I hear a grocery store calling me :)
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:04 am
Sorry Van, I seemed to have lost your e
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:09 am
Well it’s. An account more associated with old fogeys.
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:28 am
Morning, Deadpan!
I slept in until 8 this morning, which I NEVER do!
Today’s list:
weatherize patio cover
plant garden
clean bbq grill
TEB, I don’t even own a scale. I could not stand the pressure of it looking at me.
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:42 am
On Memorial Day weekend, Sly B & I usually binge-watch, or start, a TV Season on DVD. This year’s selection: Season 1 of the “new” (I guess that’s how you say it?) Dr. Who. We’re excited. We have the first 2 DVDs. If we like it, we’ll have to go find more discs at a local DVD shop, if those even exist.
When we did this several years ago with Buffy, we ended up buying the entire series. Same with Veronica Mars.
Ok, off to grab breakfast and coffee and get to work. Back later!
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:46 am
As I understand it, actually the Terminators are androids. Cyborgs require flesh to operate. They’re more of a modified human (usually)
TEB: My only guess is water loss due to sweat, something like that. Also scales are far from perfect and have a margin of error. Perhaps that plays a part.
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:01 am
Amy Bowen: Yeah, I know about the moderation. It never occurred to me that WP took note of the name, I figured it based things solely off of the email address. Wow, that just proves that I’m thick… Or possibly WP likes being Nipple Nazis.
It’s Memorial day weekend, and naturally my wife and I work.
Of course, there’s the obligatory party, which we can’t attend…
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:20 am
Human brain in cybernetically enhanced body = Cyborg
Computer Brain in human looking body = Android
Computer brain in mechanical body = Robot
That was your Deadpan Scifi trivia for this week.
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:24 am
Well, the grocery store was full of foodstuff. Which was good.
# I can see the sweat thing. My husband hates going into the bathroom after I have a shower as I don’t turn on the cold water at all.
Now… pinwheel cookies to make.
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:29 am
Oh and Terminators are mechanical bodies covered in human flesh..so still androids.
Oh and BIG, BIG peeve, Marge Piercy in Body Of Glass calling an Android a Cyborg..how I hate non genre authors writing scifi and fooking around with the terminology.
Now to take a deep breath…
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:31 am
Dead Human Brain in Living Human Body = Vegetable
Dead Human Brain in Animated Dead Human Body = Zombie
Re-animated Dead Human Brain in Re-animated Dead Human Body = Frankenstein’s Monster
Was this important, I can’t remember why I started this?
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:36 am
Vanamonde: Terminator 2: Judgment Day has the t-101 specifically calling itself a Cybernetic-Organism – living tissue over metal endo-skeleton. I think it technically is a Cyborg, even though the brain is computer: HOWEVER, from the original Terminator movie, we do know that Skynet did create androids using rubber skin – Human looking, but no living tissue…
And, now I know we’re geeks….
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:42 am
Just remember to hum the six million dollar man tune and move very s-l-o-w-l-y.
May 22nd, 2009 at 7:43 am
So local arty farty cinema has a day of old movies chosen by people tomorrow. The Princess Bride is on..I’m tempted since I never saw it at the cinema.
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:31 am
The thing that kills me about the Terminators . . . hugely high-tech killing monsters. Technology that we won’t reach for decades, maybe centuries. No infrared scanners. Woulda made the first movie very brief.
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:32 am
I really like The Princess Bride, that’s my ha-pence.
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:36 am

May 22nd, 2009 at 8:54 am
My lunch date cancelled. Now what am I going to do?
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:57 am
Well, going for a walk. Then I guess it’s hot dogs for me.
May 22nd, 2009 at 8:58 am
I mean imagine how short Star Wars would be if the Stormtroopers could shoot straight.
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:15 am
Vanamonde: Hey, Obi Wan said that Imperial Troopers were precise. Of course, that may only apply to large slow-moving vehicles moving on sand dunes on back-end planets controlled by the Hutts… Then again, “precise” doesn’t necessarily mean “straight”
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:17 am
My goodness, I was thinking someone was going to bring that up.
I will try to use my psychic powers for good and predict what the next palooza will be.
I just won’t say anything till after it’s already been announced.
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:21 am
Don’t lasers by definition shoot straight?
I recall reading a book, Samurai Cat or something like that. This particular story was parodying Star Wars. The Rebels put barn walls at the end of every corridor, since the Stormtroopers couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:24 am
Precisely inaccurate has a nice ring to it.
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:26 am
I seem to remember a trooper being remarkably accurate using “Stun”… when pointing at a rather attractive derriere…
May 22nd, 2009 at 9:37 am
Vanamonde: *nods rapidly*
Lejon: And to think, that was the only time it was used. Must’ve been that ‘Trooper’s “power move” a la Street Fighter.
May 22nd, 2009 at 10:11 am
I’ve never seen Princess Bride in its entirety. I should do something about that.
May 22nd, 2009 at 10:13 am
Cj: Princess Bride is much with the awesome. I also recommend the book by the same name, but don’t try to look for it under S. Morgenstern.
May 22nd, 2009 at 10:32 am
You know spring is here when they turn on the fountain at the local park.
I personally found the book of The Princess Bride bizarre. The overweight kid and the psychologist mom. What was that about?
May 22nd, 2009 at 10:43 am
My dilemma.
I made cookies.
I created dirty dishes.
Because of my hand, I can’t wash said dishes.
Now I feel guilty because hubby is going to have to do dishes when he comes home from work.
Should I feel guilty? Is cookies a fair trade for having to do dishes? Especially considering I bake cookies every Friday so is not really a “treat”.

I think I still feel a little guilty. I haven’t been able to do any of my normal housework this week so hubby has been taking up the slack. Really what I did was create more work for him.
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:03 pm
A couple of my friends just got engaged last night. I suspect fear of commitment.
It’s the only explanation, really. They’ve been together for a little over four years, been living together most of the time. Have a cute three-year-old kid.
Fear of commitment, pure and simple.
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:04 pm
Oh, and I found out about the engagement through Twitter.
Can’t even commit to coming out and telling their close friends… Fear…it kills…
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:36 pm
I’ve known people to get married for legal reasons.
May 22nd, 2009 at 12:54 pm
Mainly to do with sharing out assets to the kids on something nasty happening to the parents.
May 22nd, 2009 at 2:16 pm
TEB: I can only speak for myself. I’m honored to be with my woman and I understand that one of us may slack off here and there. We’re human and schedules and stresses change. We do our best to cover for each other. But it’s a great partner that realizes what’s going on and appreciates what the other is doing. So GO YOU!
Lejon: I’m overtired, so maybe that’ it. What are they afraid of?

TEB: RE: The Princess Bride book, my understanding of that part was a sort of autobiography as to the origin of the story, and could very easily be skipped over. In fact it should probably be skipped over on principle unless you’re fascinated by any behind the scenes facts.

Evening!
Garden – accomplished! Lots of weeds went down today too. We didn’t weather-proof because it’s supposed to rain. There’s always tomorrow!
Off to grill!

Heavy yard work – done.
Trees trimmed – done

Yesterday (or the day before) I was listening to Buzz Out Loud and that Three Wolves Moon T-Shirt came up. Seems that it a best selling clothing article. Apparently it got a load of amusing reviews out of the blue and people are buying the shirt like crazy now.
The company that makes the shirt put out a statement that essentially said, “But, but, we don’t think it’s funny!?”

Morning Pan! It’s 7:30 am, on a Saturday. Do you know where your bed is?
May 23rd, 2009 at 5:37 am
It’s only a bit after 9:30 am here and I already worked out, ran, and relaxed for half an hour. Dunno if I’m going to be able to get any yardwork done. It’s supposed to rain all weekend. Perhaps Monday.
May 23rd, 2009 at 5:51 am
Ah yes, can’t go without the old tradition of rain on long weekends :)
May 23rd, 2009 at 6:48 am
It’s POURING here in South Florida, complete with thunder and lightning. We’ve had two brownouts here this morning, the last one of which interrupted my wireless router. I just went downstairs, unplugged its power cable and plugged it in again, and now it seems to be working again.
May 23rd, 2009 at 7:07 am
the poledancing snow White is a bit disturbing.
Off to see the Princess Bride..
May 23rd, 2009 at 7:20 am
Hmm, weather is predicting 60% chance for our area today. But, as big an area as Houston-Galvetson covers, we can easily get 6″ of rain an hour north of us, and nothing where we are.
Glad I got the yardwork done yesterday!
May 23rd, 2009 at 7:43 am
Finally saw Star Trek yesterday. Fun movie, agree with those who say that, aside from marketing purposes, it didn’t really need to be called “Star Trek.”
Today is the celebration of my birthday with my parents.
May 23rd, 2009 at 8:16 am
Still raining, but rain has slackened. I think I will go out for shopping, coffee, and maybe audio editing or other stuff after I finish doing finances.

My mom and I are moving my Gram into a new more private home this weekend. I’m just waiting for mom to get into town right now. I’m thankful for the cool, rainy, weather. Moving in the summer sun is never fun.

I’m also debating that 3rd cup of coffee. Do I want it or don’t I? Although, I was home early last night, I stayed up entirely too late reading, so I’m more tired than I wanted to be today.

Morning, Deadpan!
We had a wonderful bbq yesterday, despite the rain, with Sly B’s brother, his wife, and their great girls (4 and 7). My ribs turned out great, and I grilled corn as well.
Today we plan to finish disc 2 of Dr. Who, Season 1. I don’t love the show, but have always liked Billie Piper. I also have the entire season so far of Rescue Me on the DVR — we might move to that as we do laundry.
Sorry you had to work, Jack!

No work today for me, TEB, hooray!
May 25th, 2009 at 7:34 am
Banned Books – I’ll never understand why people want to discourage kids from reading. OK, I’ll probably put The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty up on a high shelf until my daughter is at least 18, but I read Hitchhiker’s Guide for the first time when I was 12-years-old (after seeing an interview with Douglas Adams on Letterman) and I don’t think it warped me. At least not as much as me watching Letterman at that age. I’m also fairly certain that Animal Farm was assigned reading for me in High School right next to another one of my favorite books of all time, 1984.
I suppose if the idea behind banning the books is to get the kids to read, then it’s worth it. Maybe it’s some warped reverse psychology.

is there an upper range limit for Cougars?
Cough
May 25th, 2009 at 1:41 pm
Van: I am still trying to determine the exact meaning of the word “Cougar’ because I’ve been told that in about 17 days I’ll be crossing over the line of “MILF” to become a “Cougar” but I thought a woman had to be on the prowl in order to cross that line.
I need a ruling here. Can I just stay a MILF forever instead?
And in response to your request – I don’t think there is an upper limit… I just think the age range of the young men widens. An 80-year-old is still a Cougar if she’s hitting on a 50-year-old man.
And good for her! Hm. Maybe I WILL be a Cougar in my old-age!
May 25th, 2009 at 1:43 pm

Greetings, Pan. It’s been a really good weekend. One of my good friends from college (and my daughter’s Godfather…he’s Italian, go figure :) ) came to visit for the weekend. He’s been through a lot over the last several months, including cancer. But, he seems to be in really good shape now and it was nice to have him around.
May 25th, 2009 at 6:56 pm
Ed, The Godfather’s second visit will be just as great, possibly even better. The third visit will not be as bad as everyone says, but still disappointing, compared to the first 2.
(Applause to your friend for staying in shape vs. cancer)

May 26th, 2009 at 4:20 am
Cj, you are correct. A MILF is a MILF until she’s no longer someone that one would LF. A Cougar is an older woman, very often a MILF, on the prowl for fleshly delights. So there is some cross-over there.
May 26th, 2009 at 4:22 am

Vanamonde: That IS impressive. I’ve had SP3 shoved down my throat and no real issues thus far.
May 26th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
I was not aware of the event. Happy Anniversary, ditto and your Mrs.!
May 26th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
My other two posts never surfaced. No real loss, though.

I should be leaving to go see Star Trek in T-15 minutes and counting.

Imag1 – your comments are finally freed. They’d apparently skipped moderation and jumped straight into the spam folder. I’m guessing it was the word, “MILF”.

Jack: Watched that hip hop video. Surprisingly good and I agree with what he says. I’d probably phrase it differently though. ;) Where did you find that?
May 26th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
I think he states his case rather eloquently, ditto. And yes, I do agree with his points – although I can’t claim to be 100% familiar with everyone he names. Mark Forman posted the link @jackmangan on Twitter.

Well that was fun!
May 26th, 2009 at 9:27 pm
Wow. I decide to be busy for the weekend, and I miss things.
Missing posts, missing posts reappearing, Woot BOC (Cj: I envy your bag of crap. You’ve no idea)
Mindless Hip-hop being berated by Rap aficionado (I agreed with some of what he said – most of the words that weren’t four-letter)
All this, and we have a new kitten.
Well, I guess you all missed that part, I was there to pick it out.
With luck, I’ll post again soon…
May 26th, 2009 at 11:29 pm
That’s excellent, Lejon. What did you guys name the new kitten?
May 27th, 2009 at 12:43 am
That was a massive BoC. I am green.
May 27th, 2009 at 1:15 am
Is that an OLED green?
May 27th, 2009 at 2:42 am
Is it the weekend yet?

So I’m watching an episode of ‘Being Erics’ and thinking…I’ve never seem a STOP button in an UK Lift (Elevator).
That oh so useful function for lovers and muggers.

Morning Pan!
Another drive-by Panning.
Actually had to spend two days in a row at the downtown office. The person I shared the office with was layed off about 6 weeks ago, now we’re trying to figure out what to do with all his stuff (files, computer, there’s even a 40″ flatscreen TV returned to our office).
The office has to be emptied by the end of June (including me) so lots of planning to do.
Since I am now alone at this office, they are moving me to a different office downtown with another branch. Not that it really matters to me as I usually only spend one day in ten at the downtown office :)
May 27th, 2009 at 6:46 am
Lock up your cats! There is going to be a wolf loose in the neighborhood!

I think I’ve managed to keep that one off my kids radar. Though, we did rent something that had dogs going into space that was probably at least as cheesy.

I’m positive that G*Force will be worse than Chimps, but I doubt anything will hold a candle to that Chihuahua movie from last year. That thing scares me, just thinking about it.

Before I forget again, I finished “Being Human” and I figured out what that feeling is and where I’ve had it before. Melancholy with “Dead Like Me.” Caveat is I’ve only seen the first season of “Dead Like Me”, so if it goes downhill after that…
I loved it and cannot wait to abjectly fail at trying to get my friends and family to actually watch “Being Human.”

Thanks much to Jack and Cj. :-)

The Chimp Movie didn’t suck as bad as I expected, but I won’t be running out to see it or renting it anytime soon.
NS: I actually own the Chihuahua movie. Embarrassing, but true. My daughter loved that one and is *IS* Drew Barrymore. *swooon*
