Closing music: “Deadpan is the Way”









Van: A market of one is better than none!
I’ve only had Acai mixed with other berries. Does it taste rather like cranberries?
I know a girl who thinks of ghosts
She’ll make you breakfast
She’ll make you toast
She don’t use butter
She don’t use cheese
She don’t use jelly
Or any of these
She uses Vaseline
Yeah, well… he uses magazines.
Note to self: The deadpan does not refresh itself if I do not hit the magic f5. der.
I’ve given up on trying to catch up. If you make references that I don’t get, I’m just going to smile and nod.
*smile*
*nod*
Jeremy, you think they should use scissors to cut xmas ornaments out of construction paper?
Lejon: That’s just an unfair temptation to make BS fake references so enticing that you’ll have to go back to find them.
TEB is good at the real ones. I wonder if she’d be as good with fake ones.
NS: *smile*
Tom Cruise and Tim Curry star in “Lejon”.
I think Cj and the not-sleeping Nomad Scry were quoting Flaming Lips lyrics.
Scissoring. LOL.
I found out that there is going to be a local PodCamp on Feb 6.
http://pcwm2-efbnen.eventbrite.com/
The everyone must participate clause is somewhat intimidating. I’d just like to find out if anyone local is NOT a total social media wank.
Nomad: Dictating how people participate in a Podcamp is uncool. Charging people admission to Podcamp is also uncool.
I don’t know their story though, so I will withhold condemnation. You’ll probably find a creative environment with a bunch of cool, smart people. . . . surrounded by social media wanks.
Pondering what a flaming lip would look like.
Off to work again I go. If I’m still lucid when I get home at “whatever” after midnight. I might post again.
My knee, by the way, is amazingly well. Hurray for giant needles that inject goop!
Yeah, but wht if she wants her hair to be real orange?
I just wish there were quite the social media community here you have in Phoenix…
I think I said before they had a “Podcamp” two and a hlaf years back one afternoon at a bar.
I had a really good experience with the local indie/story-gamer JiffyCon last month. Really casual and friendly folks.
I am trying to make a connection between that good experience and how awesome PodCampAZ sounds with giving this one a chance, but my sleep adled brain isn’t being very helpful.
I guess, simply put, I think that it would be nice to find some smart creatives in real life. Errrr… in real life, meaning locally. Yall are pretty damn smart creatives.
JB: Was that you on a recent episode of The Dreamer’s Thread?
I get to go back to bed! Wooooohoo!
*sigh*
So. when everybody bales on you, it’s about when you’re decorating your 50th cookie that you realize Christmas is actually a chore.
*sigh*

Nomad, I don’t know the Dreamers Thread so I’m leaning no on that one.
add the word “alone” anywhere in there.
One of the joys of being married to someone in the teaching profession is you don’t actually see much of them this last week of school. Between Christmas concerts, parent counsel meetings, etc, he expects to be home quite late every night this week.
*another sigh*
I still have to get a Christmas tree.
*sigh*
CP: Warning — Great Northern
ditto, just so people know how we feel. All together:
1..2..3..
*sigh*
I’ve had some pear cider, so no sighs from me yet.
They say it’s not the sighs that matters.
I’ve set my sighs on…
Oh and if you are FB and are not on my friend list:

Oh and if you don’t mind folk music and want to get into the Christmas mood:
http://www.folkcast.co.uk/Items/FolkCastbox09.mp3
Although using a version of Santa Baby is pushing the folk genre to breaking point..
Heh, look at the sighs of that ass!
We broke cold records for today! Woo hoo!!!?
Did JFS just call ditto and I asses?
Dinner alone all week = blech
Is your hubby involved with the Xmas concerts, Bunny? Or just obligated to attend?
Just obligated to attend. He has performed in the past. When that happens I usually try to attend myself. However, at -40, I may not have even if he was playing.
Except tonight it’s a parent counsel meeting that has him captive
You know, I have nothing funny to say about -40 degree temperatures.
I’ll just get the violin out for TEB.
This image seems somehow strangely relevant.
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_1538.html
And I’m off.
*pointedly ignoring Van*
http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/12/14/tech-space-wise-telescope-launch.html
How the Grinch Stole Christmas is on in five minutes. I’ll watch it and thunk of Van :)
*sticks tongue out*. :razz:
Maybe I’ll make some more bear heads for my tree, too
However I still give big hugs to Van because I know he teases and I still love him ;)
I want a jing tingler to tie on my heels
Bravu foreys, davo doray
:)
Does anybody remember the Grinch’s Halloween? I remember seeing it when I was younger. *spoiler alert*. Max had a happy ending and went to live with a mice little girl. Nobody seems to remember this.
Van, shouldn’t you be in bed? It’s got to be around midnight there. Holiday or not, I’d be in bed.
*gets Van some bedtime cocoa and tucks him in*
Actually it’s 1.15am TEB but on a late tomorrow so can have a liein.
Cocoa sounds nice, time to break out the milk.
… Then the Grinch, very nimbly, stuffed the bags one by one up the chimbly.
My mind wants to sleep for 8 hours, but my body always say ‘only six hours for YOU!’
I wish I had a chimbly
They tend to too narrow these days TEB, you would get stuck.
+be
I think my body would shut down if I only had six hours of sleep a night. I know it sure gives me hell if I’m short of sleep on just one or two nights
You two are silly.
Oh oh. The Grinch broke the heart x-Ray thingy. Who’s going to pay for that?
Yeah, but we’re cute, EssBee, so we can get away with it ;)
Ooooh. Frosty the Snowman is next – Happy Birthday!
I have to say, I’m now imagining TEB singing along to Santa Baby…
time to head that way ———->
The latest http://quirkynomads.com has Brian Brown and myself. Sage tells me my comic turn was particularly funny. Darcy and I will listen to the explicit-tagged goodness later tonight…
Apparently Neil Pert (sp?) of Rush recorded a drum version on the Hockey Night in Canada theme. TSN is going to start using it next year. Cool
Is it just me or does Prof. Hinkle remind you of Snidley Whiplash?
Van, while I do enjoy singing that song, I’m usually alone. Despite years of voice lessons when I was a kid, I still can make ears bleed
JB, I’ll give it a listen tomorrow when I’m at my computer.
I think I need another beer
CD: kwak
The new Zelda game on the DS is very good…it helps you get to drive a train..
When the thermometer get all reddish, the temperature goes up -Frosty
isn’t it the other way around?
Wait a minute!!! They cut the entire “policeman hollared stop” scene! I know it was just a little scene bit still, I hate it when they do that.
Ack! I’m cracking nuts and eating them for a snack. A shell just flew down the front of my shirt. Is that karma?
Just as an FYI, 8.5% beer is really hard on us lightweights :)
Why did the animals have to build a fire? With their fur coats, couldn’t they just snuggle Karen to keep her warm?
Frosty’s all wet.
DJ Bunny: I’m pretty sure I would have remembered seeing Max get a happy ending. That’s not the kind of thing you can scrub off your retinas.
Why is Santa almost always bald on top in most cartoons yet always seems to have a full head of hair when I see him at the malls?
All the engineers in the house say hooooooo!
http://www.gcfl.net/archive.php?funny=3326
I’m telling you UH, that show exists. Maybe tomorrow, when I’m on my computer, I’ll do a search for it
That looked fun UH. I’ll check it out more in depth in the morning. In the meantime, a warm bed, a cold beer, and a book calls me.
Tomorrow Deadpan!
Tomorrow deadpan? Isn’t this just Monday, or did I slip through a wormhole?
Almost over Ed. You have nearly slain yet another .
Now FINISH IT!!! There can be ONLY ONE!!! Well, only one a week.
UH: While funny that write up was definitely dated. Government contractors don’t have that large of a vocabulary now a days.
Is it wrong that I like following pornstars on twitter?
If following pornstars is wrong, I don’t want to be right!
In other news, a woman I added as a Facebook friend six month ago is next month’s playmate. Behold the power of the internet!
Today has been my day for Secret Santa presents! I’m involved in two different Secret Santa exchanges, the Deadpan one and the one going on in the community for the Facebook game PackRat. Today at lunchtime, I found and sent a present (an in-game collectible card) to my PackRat Secret Santa recipient, then went to the post office and put my Deadpan Secret Santa gift in the mail. Tonight, when I got home, I found a DPSS gift waiting for me! Thanks, Nomad Scry! :-)
TEB: Aw! Everybody bailing on you sux. *hugs*
Van: Thanks for the FB privacy info. Done and shared.
We have a chimbly, but we’ve never used it because we don’t want to clean the fireplace. :-/
Night, Pan.
CW: A weird show from UK in the mid 70s called “Children of the Stones” is cool and weird.
I’m not going to this bed:
http://www.walyou.com/blog/2009/12/14/millennium-falcon-star-wars-bed/
But I’m off to bed. Goodnight, blue mush.

hahahaha
OK, one more geeky link to make you shudder:
http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/11/30/tron-legacys-joseph-kosinski-remaking-disneys-the-black-hole/
Really off now. I’ll check out JB’s QN audio ASAIC.
Night Jack.
Amy: Most welcome!
Thanks, Bunny!
JB: Lilith’s Love. That’s what it was. I knew I’d heard you -somewhere-. =)
Morning Pan, remaking ‘The Black Hole’…the obvious question is why? much as I like the film I had thought it was a flop.
Hopefully they will keep the John Barry soundtrack…
Also TEB’s Christmas Card arrived today, thank you TEB.
Somehow, I don’t see them releasing that under the Disney label this time around. The Black Hole wasn’t so epicly great as to be a classic. The imagery is dated enough that it probably could have a chance with a remake. The premise certainly has potential.
BBC TV’s orginal adaption of 1984:
http://www.archive.org/details/Meatpies_1984
Morning Deadpan!
Cj, if you’re saying thanks for the reason I think you are (how cryptic is that?), just remember, when your kids open their gifts and you have a truly WTF moment – you love me for my strange sense of humour
Ha! I knew I wasn’t crazy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPcxnJQnzhE
at least not in this matter
ok, so it was a little boy, not little girl.
They just now opened them. I didn’t make them wait because I was excited to see and I, personally, think SO AWESOME!!!!
Everything in there is incredibly awesome and appreciated! Thank you oodles of thank you!!!
After watching a few minutes, I realize it’s not very good. Obviously I had no taste when I was a kid
When I saw that opener, I had to get two, one for us as well :)
Ah, that bracing sort of -5F that feels like -21F…
Yup, I was in an episode of Lilith’s Love. Dan Shaurette is a Deadpanite, of course. Did you enjoy my crap Texan accent?
feels like -21. High wind chill JB?
we are at -20 C (-4F) or -30 (-22) with the windchill.
We are headed for a Chinook, though. supposed to break the freezing mark by tomorrow.
Hubby’s birthday on Friday! I’m getting him season 3 original ST on blu-ray. It’s suppose to come out today.
The worst season of ST, are you sure you are sending hubbu the right message TEB?
Cough
-u +y
It’s what he asked for, Van.
We’ve got seasons one and two so…
Usedhair: hooooooooooooooooo
Jack: I don’t know about that bed. I might not mind if she were to tuck me in. ;)
Here’s the so-far line up for 2010 New Orleans JazzFest:
Pearl Jam, Aretha Franklin, Artist TBA, Van Morrison, Lionel Richie,
The Neville Brothers, Allman Brothers Band, Anita Baker,
My Morning Jacket, Darius Rucker, Widespread Panic
That “Artist TBA” is one of my faves.
Well Panites, I’m off.
Hubby informed me that he needs a gift for tomorrow for a Secret Santa exchange among the staff.
Nothing like notice. Lucky for him I was headed out to get his birthday gift anyway ;)
CP: Tango Shoes — Bif Naked
Tony Bennett’s Armpit?
Tiger Woods joke I overheard while Xmas shopping at Target yesterday:
“What’s the difference between Santa and Tiger Woods? Santa stopped after three Ho’s.”
Just finished reading X-Factor: Overtime HC. Now I know why Layla knows stuff. =( I think I’m glad I don’t know stuff.
Layla was hilarious. X-Factor was one of the last titles I read before I dropped getting comics (again). I think I have issues 1-24.
totally burnt apples?
Morning Pan.
Seattle got balmy again…no snow. Boo.
Tiny Bunny Antlers
Conversation at dinner last night.
Tiger Woods downfall came up.
Outraged Mrs. Lady – “What is it about these “Stars” that makes them think they can get away with these stupid things?”
Me – “What is it about our culture that makes us believe these “Stars” are somehow human like the rest of us?”
The only thing the public likes more then placing a guy on a pedestal, is kicking him when he falls off.
are = aren’t
meh
Fuck the whole thing. Who cares.
And
Kobe was on trial for RAPE! And he kept playing, nobody was as outraged as this. He just fucked around with some trashy ladies. big fucking deal. He is a billionare… let him live it up a little. Its HIS family to destroy…
gah.
Who cares.
srsly. I’m shocked when people bring this up. I guess it helps with the lifestyle envy to watch these rich brats fall on their faces.
And Jeremy makes a great point about rape vs. infidelity. Are it really an equal or lesser crime?
And just for fun, switch the gender roles. How different do you think the coverage and perception would be?
OMG! Ellen cheated on Portia with 12 women!!
*enrages furiously*
Anyway, on more important topics:
Turkey Baster Ache.
Tom Bombadil’s Anus.
Tito’s Big Afro.
Tigers Bloated Ass
I am a klutz today, thought DP site was down as I using a truncated URL and not getting a response…doh!
My hubby just got a job.
Yah! For Dan.
Hoorah for Dan!
Re: Rape: Remember when that Lacrosse team supposedly raped that chick? Remember the huge uproar? Couldn’t get away from it. Then it was found that the P.O.S. chick was a lying douche. The talking heads barely mentioned that fact and moved on.
Cj: HOORAY!!! :-D
Doesn’t Dan know there’s a recession going on? The nerve of some people!
LOL, Tell Dan congratz for me CJ. Also tell him he needs to put a warning on your podcast before he tells anymore breastfeeding jokes. I was driving and nearly wreaked my car.
Deadp is the way.
woot for Danthol!
Congrats Dan!
Mr. Null,
In fact, I specifically remember channel surfing and for reasons unknown I ended up watching Nancy Grace talk about that very situation. She was going on and on about “Don’t we already know what transpired here? and “Why even have a trial and just lock the boys up?” I remember thinking, what has been alleged is pretty awful but shouldn’t we wait until all the facts of the case come forth? And sure enough, it came to light that the “victim” had fabricated the whole thing. There wasn’t a big follow up story about the abuses of the press following that. Go figure.
So woot we all!
Christmas music meme – “Oh The Fur Oiy”
One other Tiger thought.
His F#$% up has come to light in a most unfortunate time in history (for him personally).
I fear the strong similarity between him and the current President (soft spoken, fair skinned, HIGHLY successful black men) has resulted in this unrelenting public flogging. For a certain, increasingly vocal segment of our society, Tiger’s failings prove (in thier minds) every bad thought they have about having a black man in the White House. He may have become the surrogate target for their vitriol.
or maybe not
Tactical Breast Armour
I want a mulligan on that one.
I think “Tactical Breast Adornment” better.
Tactical Breast Augmentation?
So breast we all?
Why parse words:
Titty Boob Areolas
Tell Bitch Adios
TEB: I distinctly remember the Halloween Grinch thing now. It came to me with the song about not going out on a night like this for __$ and __ cents, with the increments steadily increasing.
But I still don’t want to see Max get a happy ending. That’s just sick.
