Been a busy day and I’m still working. Making some flyers for the relay.
I used to have an audio taped interview (part 2 of 2) that Gilmore did for “The King Biscuit Flour Hour”. It came out just before the movie was released and he took the interviewer through the whole album.
… or maybe it was Waters. Can’t remember which but I remember the interview.

One reason why – regardless of your opinion on his (and his predecessors’) spending policies – it’s good to have Obama as President:

Why, yes, WordPress, I do indeed say “Night, Pan.” rather often. Thank you for noticing.
And to make up for my political post:

She says, “boys are weird!”

New iPhone or Rovean Plot?
Science and Tech Apr 19 2010, 3:30 PM
Like Megan, I’ve seen the Gizmodo video, and yes, it’s pretty convincing. Nevertheless, some small part of me wonders if it isn’t an elaborate head fake. Something millions of people would simple die to get their hands on, mysteriously “lost” in a public place… It brings to mind the infamous “Lafayette Park PowerPoint” presentation laying out Karl Rove’s strategy in the 2002 midterm elections, which was discovered by a Democrat lying in the grass in the park across from the White House. Hmm.
Morning Pan!
Hubby and I saw this last night http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1522835/
Yes, it was as bad as it looks.

shut up
you can’t keep me down!
well many you can but then I’ll sic the jack on you ass!
re: iPhone 4.0
At this point it doesn’t matter if it is fake or not. Gizmodo’s story is on everyone’s mind now. I’ve rarely seen a single tech news story take so much general attention. Which is why I’m sure that it is a fake.
That and this comment:
http://gizmodo.com/comment/21988707
Fingers crossed the Microsim gets ditched.
Anyway, I had to actually say on FB that I’m in fact single..mainly because I kept getting accused of being in a relationship with a friend.
It’s my default status after all..
so true:

Don’t even get me started on traffic issues, reaper.
This is also true
http://www.xkcd.com/729/
TEB, I could go on for hours on traffic but I won’t…
Today is the day recycling gets picked up in our neighbourhood. For the first time, I saw someone going through all the bins looking for bottles. The coward in me didn’t confront him. And he seemed to clean back up anything that came out of the bin in his search. Hubby and I will have to decide what, if anything, we’re going to do. May have to start watching when the recycle truck comes around and take it out just before. That would be a pain.
I bet we all could, reaper.
Shame about Sherlock Holmes. I rather liked Gareth in Torchwood.
Scry, we started watching the movie fully expecting it to be awful, simply based on the write-up. We weren’t disappointed. Knowing what we were getting in to, the movie was actually ok. With the exception of Dominic Keating and Gareth David-Lloyd, the cast had been in pretty much nothing else.
Oh yeah. If you’re into Sherlock Holmes, the movie was also about as far from canon as you could get.
On a different note, my schedule is looking like I may be able to watch a B horror tomorrow. I don’t know what is up next, but be prepared to be very afraid tomorrow afternoon
Snootches
Snootches?
Are you trying to get fresh with the Deadpan, Lo Pan?
Bootches?
Snootchie Bootchies? Are we having a Jay and Silent Bob day today?
Silent Bob: hehe I agree completely
That guy is so funny
“The other day I was on the phone with Plifford Snootches, author of Kennedy Killed Your Mother. He was telling me about all the horrible things Kennedy had done. Mr. Snootches had just put in a plug for his upcoming work, Kennedy Killed the Dinosaurs, when my call-waiting blipper blipped. I put Mr. Snootches on hold and answered the waiting call.”

Aw . . .
…shucks
Jack: That 4 cord song vid was fucking brilliant! :)
Shucks. Cock.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
CP: Sunshower EP — Ume
Me like.
A little homophobia for laughs – bwahaha . . . uh . . . ha . . .
cough
EssBee: glad to hear you are liking Ume!
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
*cough* Not that theres anything wrong with that *cock* er…*cough*
If you thought the trailer to “Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl” was strange… how about a dose of “Big Tits Zombie” in 3D!
http://scifiwire.com/2010/04/wacky-nsfw-japanese-trail.php
Uh. Words fail me.
Only in Japan?
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Me like too. The Ume, not the cock.
Not that theres anything homo about that.
I loved Falcon.
http://kotaku.com/5520487/game-manuals//gallery/4
Those manuals were awesome.
big….tits…..zombie…..
BIG TITS ZOMBIE
LOL “The BIG TITS DRAGON” lolol
Still have my phucking Phalcon manual.
PING PONG ZOMBIE!!!!!!!! OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD
AND MORE!!!!
oh ditto.. greatest trailer evar evar
Well I have to disagree about Sherlock, a fun movie.
Oh and in the Books Sherlock does know how to fight..
Although not in the same league as Falcon 4.0 manual, the manual for the first Falcon on the ST/Amiga was pretty chunky.
Remember a time when reading the manuals was almost as much fun as playing the game?
The Elite manual and novella were a great introduction to the game.
I really enjoyed the Sherlock Holmes film. I’ve only ever read one or two of the novels.
I’m watching a guy in the front of my house make seamless gutters out of his truck. Pretty awesome.
GO COSTCO!
Umm, we are talking about the same Sherlock Holmes movie right? Basically Sherlock vs. the dinosaurs.
Oooooops! Thought you were talking about the Robert Downey SH..
Nope, Van. This movie was made just a short time before that. (see my imdb link). It has Sherlock’s brother in it. And while I know Sherlock did have a brother, he wasn’t so… adventurous (trying to avoid spoilers here)
OH! Didn’t see that one. Am simple.
Not that theres anything…oh fuck it
Ouch:
http://i.engadget.com/2010/04/20/thieves-snag-ipad-from-buyer-yank-a-finger-off-while-theyre-at/
Fucking Denver. Dude this place is seriously becoming Detroit lite.
Oh its Cherry Creek! That figures.
What’s Detroit-y about it, Lo?
Update: Man who made the gutters is finished, and has driven away. Now the installers are here to hang em. sweet.
Yeah, but does your town have one of these
http://crimemap.calgarypolice.ca/content/DisclaimerPage.aspx
According to that map, my neighbourhood has had 71 violations in the last three months and I live in one of the better parts of the city.
I’m not encouraging people to see me am I?
Yeah, but most of those 71 violations are for recyclables theft.
41 arsons in the city in the last three months. Woot!
I’m kind of liking this website.
I admit a lot of them were for theft, one was still for homicide. I loves Calgary
Truth is, I doubt Calgary is any better or worse than any other large city, just most people don’t realize how much crime, petty or large, actually goes on around them.
Calgary, puts the homi in homicide. New slogan?
I know what you mean Bunny. I try not to read the papers myself.
Old tech can show those young whippersnappers a thing or two:
http://gizmodo.com/5520615/volcanic-ash-grounds-commercial-flights-in-uk-but-tiger-moth-antiques-soar-high
We ain’t no Winnipeg, but we’re still up there. I found a stat that said for 2007 (still looking for one a little more recent) Calgary ranked 27th overall for the number of homicides in Canada (out of 100) o I guess we’re not as bad as I make out.
Those are cool aireal pics, Van.
Watched a few shows over the weekend and I have some questions and comments.
First a spoiler free discussion about “Moon.”
The clones, do they…okay forget that, this is going to be full of spoilers. So I take it the clones have a three year expiration date? It’s supposed to be cheaper to manufacture and nurture clones on a three year replacement plan rather than send in a new guy from Earth? I like the movie a lot, three and a half out of five stars.
Last night’s “House.” Did we learn the significants of the knight’s Satanic room? Was the whole episode an homage to “Army of Darkness?”
Your observations along the same lines I got from the movie, Rhett.
I Don’t watch house so can’t help with those questions.
R.I.P. Guru. :(
http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1637388/20100420/gang_starr.jhtml
Don’t know of Guru, but that is a young age to die.
Thanks Bunny, glad we see eye to eye on “Moon’s” plot.
RE: Moon spoiler discussion:
I could certainly see it being cheaper to send one shipment of 1000 clone bodies (or maybe even clone sea monkeys to grow while he’s working) than an earth-to-moon journey every time the guy needs to be relieved.
If I understand your objection.
TSH: Foo Dog!
http://www.buddhamuseum.com/bronze-3/iron-foo-dog_87.jpg
Attack of the Zombie Tits… Their Silicone taint will augment your brains!
VAN, they’re talking about a different Sherlock…
TEB: Mycroft Holmes was a lazy Government spy… Who had better powers of observation than Sherlock… *cough*
I am not going to speak about the crime in my area… mostly because I’d be forced to call my wife and ask her a reference question…
Yeah Bunny, we do have one of those. Those are awesome.
Ess it just seems lately that crime is super on the rise in places it really shouldnt be. I suppose I shouldnt compare it to Detroit tho.
Damn now Guru is gone?
RE: the “NEW” iPod…
1.) I totally believe that it was an Apple “prototype”
2.) I do not believe that it was “lost”, so much as deliberately put in harms way — After all, it made it to Gizmodo. How random is that?
3.) I still won’t buy one, but from the description, it’s closer than any other iPod to getting my pocket cash…
Aha, the crimey factor! I’d say, double-digit unemployment = crime.
I told you yesterday, Lo, that my fence was tagged. Now my trash barrel is tagged. Apparently, this is SUR territory.
Yeesh….. on a scale on 1 to 10, the US average is 3 when it comes to violent crimes.
Denver is a 7. Yuck
SUR? Lol… Surly Uppity Republicans?
It’s funny, the wall along my local canal got tagged, but it wasn’t your usual… It was the “make love, not war” type… creeped me out… especially because the spelling was so bad, I had to think it wasn’t actual hippies…
mkae lvoe nut wor….
um…why?

More on Moon: Yeah, Jack, that’s my general objection. I’m not sure if the large clone facility and the resources to run it are cost effective verses the salary/transportation expenses of one employee. Lunar didn’t seem to flinch at sending a “resque” team and I imagine the shipment of H3 occured on regular intervals. Of course, none of that is really relevent to the plot which is more about corporate explotation and the nature of being a person. I still enjoyed the movie.
I got the impression the’rescue team was from the Earth facing side of the moon, so not such an expensive journey.
I’m ignoring all the “Moon” comments until I see it.
Rhett: No, we really didn’t learn the significance of the Satanic room. It wasn’t really brought up again. I am going to rewatch that episode when it shows up on Hulu, though, because I was out and missed the first half.
Thanks Amy.
Wanna see my moon, ditto?
CP: 1977 — Ana Tijoux
http://feeds.kexp.org/~r/kexp/songoftheday/~3/kQmo1dNGPKk/f6bb534f-256a-4fc9-9a6a-c7cbfb93d9be.mp3
Lo Pan: That’s a frightening thought. ;)
I have an awesome moon. No dark side.
Ana Tijoux sounds tre hott
Oh shes kinda not really…but kinda…but not
Really?
http://www.kilometrocero.cl/2009/05/panorama-para-este-martes-anita-tijoux-adelanta-sus-nuevos-trabajos/
She sounds cool. I don’t understand Spanish, but I like it. :)
Why did I know you’d bring up the Dark Side? Next, you’ll start talking about cookies.
wtf is that pic?
CP: Here’s Your Future — The Thermals
My moonshake brings all the cookies to the yard.
Lo Pan wins
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
That’s no moon… it’s a space station…
There is no dark side in the moon, really. As a matter of fact it’s all dark.
Oh wait, it is a moon.
Not that…theres…anything…wrong….mit…das…
As I recall, it allowed the Evil Corporation to duck shady dealings to use clones. Also, the clones didn’t need to be trained, as they carried on the knowledge of the original. The “shelf life” of the clones comes from reality. If I remember this correctly, clones adopt the age of the original, and begin to age at a faster rate, since the ends of the proteins are snipped, or something like that. Ignore me. I’m probably wrong.
Holy crap! I spent HOURS with Falcon!
That’s no moon! That’s Lo… Pan’s… tractor beam?
Only hours? ;)
Sold out before I got one.
I haz sadness.
http://shirt.woot.com/shirts/13441
Hells yes it is…. and by “tractor beam” you mean penis.
Awesome shirt, Cj!
I agree. Very sad that it is sold out. :(
Lejon, re:reference call: Dooooo eeet! Do it do it do it!
I had Falcon for my Amiga and loved it. I bought Falcon 3 for my PC later on and played through all the missions and expansions. I bought Falcon 4 and found it was beautiful, but so complex I could hardly use it. I’m still been thinking of getting the Falcon update they released a few years back.
In case you haven’t seen the Falcon 4.0 manuals:
http://www.f-16.net/downloads_f4manuals.html
I love the fact that the game tried to teach you realistic air combat maneuvers (ACM).
Rhettro: I agree that Falcon 3 was a bit more fun to play. You have to admit, that still was pretty complicated compared to most games. Falcon was one of the few games that really strove for a true simulated fighter pilot experience.
CP: Titties — The Trucks
Rhettro: You’re welcome.
Even though I really enjoyed the Falcon series, I find the Ace Combat games very enjoyable.
What the hell’s an Aluminum Falcon?
It’s cheaper & lighter than Steel Falcon. ;)
But not as durable as a Maltese Falcon?
CP: I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend — Lush
That’s Falcon awesome.
CP: Bliss — Tori Amos
Youre mother falcon right!
good list:

Lo Pan – - that may be Robot Chicken’s greatest moment.
Digital Intregration’s F16 wasn’t half bad on the ST/Amiga..but F29 Retialator I found more fun to play..and easier to land..
Thou speakest the truth, Jacketh
http://www.listal.com/list/developed-by-digital-integration
I never got into flight simulators.
It’s funny, because when I was young, I wanted to go into the Air Force and be a pilot.
This is, until I discovered my phobia of heights…
