With apologies, we’re just not going to be ready for a show release tonight, in the wake of dead computer recovery and disruptions from the Chaotic Evil. I did record some audio tonight with the help of Justa J0e, and it may even see the light of pod.
Tomorrow.
Goodnight Mush.
Van,
I haven’t seen it yet, but if it was Pam’s dream – PORTENT. At least in the books. She is a big lezbo, and super funny. If it was Sookie’s dream – hmmm.
Well Essbee the clue is:
woof!
Oh and I’ve only seen Van Helsing on that list.
Hmmm . . . we’ll watch tonight, and then we’ll talk, Van.
Van Helsing only for me as well.
I had also seen Van Helsing on that list. Heard of a few of the others, but thankfully never seen.
Van Helsing had so much promise.
My wife and I watched “Daybreakers” last night. Interesting take on the vampire genre. Though, I didn’t care much for the way they just punted at the end. Up to the last 30 seconds or so, it was quite excellent.
Really? Game of Death, people? Seriously? No one? I’ll agree it was bad, but there’s worse. And that’s the only one I have seen from that list.
I would suggest that those people take a detour through the Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Cynthia Rothrock, and Sylvester Stallone film catalogs. Surely “Cyborg” has a place on that list.
Ed, I was just thinking about you on my drive home today – now that you’ve posted, I don’t have to go make sure you’re ok!
Oooh, Jack, nice list! I was never able to put myself through a Rothrock movie. It’s interesting that there are actual female martial artists out there. Damned good ones. And so few that can actually throw a kick ever make it into a film from the U.S..
The Texas sun did it’s best, but I have survived. :)
As long as you know how to love, you know you’ll be alright?
Van, watched True Blood. That was quite a dream!
Van you wanted something?
Oh wait you’re not talking to me – nevermind.
Because we are all sick of the bacon…

As much as the end of Van Helsing pissed me off, it doesn’t deserve to be on the 8 worst action movies list.
I’d put Broken Arrow way ahead of it.
Oh and that absolute turd, Swordfish.
Rothrock! Oh yeah, I forgot all about her drek.
And Solo, with … er, I think it was Van Peebles.
That was drek too.
I want to say Overboard and Sahara, but I’m not sure they are “action” flicks.
Imaginary NULL!
A few days back you said
How did that turn out and, really, did they actually mean dress up like Ken?
‘Cuz I don’t understand the meaning of that.
“Look, I taped up my genitals so I can be like Ken!”
Kancho is also a … phenomenon in Korea, except they call it Poop Needle, or Ddong Chim.
It took forever to figure out the Romanization there. I thought it sounded more like Dong djim.
Here is a picture of my anti-ddong chim key dangle:

Well Rubicon looks promising and Persons Unknown also had a good start.
I’m suddenly craving bacon.
The begging bacon beacon beckoning begins.
I need to :sleep:
UP WAY TOO LATE/EARLY…
Cannonical Bacon:

OK Wolf, and anyone else who’s been having problems with Touching the Monolith’s feed. I believe I’ve fixed it.
You may download at will…
Good Night
I was going to preorder a new iPhone today, but the mobile phone companies are being cagey about certain prices and whether you can swap a standard sim for a minisim.
Think I’ll have to wait.
love the oatmeal

morning, DP
CP: Captive — Ume
ALWAYS Unplug the paper shredder before working on it.

Nomad Scry: The event has yet to pass. Thus far I’m thinking a terrible Don Johnson type 80s outfit. But I thought the same thing as well. I’m not lopping off Mr. Wiggly, and I am quite a bit fuzzier than plastic.
Oh, my other idea was black lines around my joints.
Good Morning, EssBee … and everyone else.
I haz tiredness.
Deadpan and bacon, two tastes made for each other. Finished season 2 of Chuck on DVD last night. Can’t wait until season three comes out in September for DVD.
Good Morning, Cj
To further flesh out the party: It’s a birthday party for one half of a lesbian couple. Certainly the Ken between the two.
Good Morning, Panistes!
I want to be in bed… but that isn’t going to happen…
I imagine most people here are plugged into tor.com. If not, check these out!
http://www.tor.com/blogs/2010/06/war-god-feeling-blue
“Panistes”? Is that what Deadpan strippers wear?
Johnny Null, Only for a little while…
Jø – http://www.buyfunnyhalloweencostumes.com/prom-date-ken.html
Except for the wig, this could probably be put together from your local “Thrift” store.
The vinyl wig makes it though. Makes it kind of creepy too but hey …
Sounds more like a toasted sandwich.
Ah Johnny, so she’s an anatomically correct Ken.
I need to record that bacon thing I’d written a few weeks back.
An act of God?
http://apnews.excite.com/article/20100615/D9GBPCF82.html
justa J0e: Yeah, thanks. I found that. We voted that down. I found this one, and I’m using that as my basis so far:
http://www.coolest-homemade-costumes.com/images/coolest-ken-and-barbie-costumes-41215.jpg
We were talking about doing a themed Barbie and Ken thing. The zombie thing has been done to death (as has that joke). Maybe Martians? Dunno. Plus, I imagine it’ll be quite warm, and there will be a f-ton of booze flowing. We have to consider our environment!
Jack: Spot-on! Good one!
Rhettro: Yeah, I chuckled at that one. Not as good as the guy getting killed by the statue, though.
So I just saw a pair of running pants selling for $124. Can I legally beat anyone that purchases these and doesn’t have a net worth of at least two mil?
CE: French dip from Arby’s yummm!!!
CW: 30Rock S2E15
Jø – “We have to consider our environment!”
So you’ll be going as “Beach Barbie and Ken” and have splotches of oil all over you?
Would it be considered too early for that?
Lesbian Ken?
EssBee – I am a lesbian.
I’m not here. Just a quick note to apologize to Cj for lateness. According to my tracking site, the hold up is on the US side not mine.
*grumble grumble* Be there by Friday my butt *grumble, grumble* Stupid post office crossing countries *grumble grumble*
“Cartman what are you doing”
“Mom says, to be a lesbian, you have to like a lot of carpet”
justa J0e: Nice!
EssBee: We’ve covered going that type of route too. The group isn’t fun enough for that, IMO.
I’m just wondering what it is!
Wolfie – I think we all knew that, but thanks for saying so. It is pride month after all.
Pride Month — Does that have something to do with Lions?
And bears. Lots of bears.
And a few cougars.
Lions and cougars and botox, oh my!
Bare cougars?
CW: the core
strange, the core on the Tivo was in HD but on the PC I don’t have an HD option. 30 at least buffered in HD. oh well
On bikes?
maybe scare crows and tin men?
EssBee: It means she’s the man in the relationship.
Gulp. Eeek! Zwaaaaaaa. Um.
…
interesting and concise chart about dog.

Jack that kids costume is awesome.
I think with the Mario thing they where a little lazy with the not getting mushroom thing.
hahaha, reaper… yeah I was like, “Dude, back up! You missed the Power-Up!! Then if he’d have run into the turtle, he would have still had an extra life. Duh.
Cj, just imagine if someone took footage like that and made a playable game.
I know it is way beyond my programing ability but other than shell scripts that last thing I programed was an Apple IIe
reaper: I’m reminded of Clay Fighter. Not too relevant, but I like the sound of my typing.
In case anyone else is interested Nintendo announced quite a bit of stuff at E3
Metroid: Other M will be out 8/31/10
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword to use motion+ for real sward play
3DS looks interesting
and Kirby, Goldeneye, DK, Golden Sun, Kid Icarus will have new games
WolF: did you ever get Touching the Monolith to download?
OK, Everyone – Listen up!
I’ve been chosen to be considered for the job I so desperately want.
I’m turning in my writing sample today = Read: Proof that I can communicate in writing intelligently!
I need lots of good vibes.
I WANT THIS JOB!
I might have to Buy a 3DS. The Legend Zelda Ocarina of Time will be out for it.
Good Luck Cj!!! Hope you get the job.
Good luck, Cj!
Good luck Cj.
Been messing around with the Comixology app on the phone and iPad, downloaded a few freebie issue 1s.
Works great for reading comics (especially on the iPad), but teeth gnashingly annoying that they still overcharge for non physical versions of the comics.
For example, I can pick up print collected edition of Kick Ass for 4 quid cheaper than if I bought all the comic issues from Comixology through the app.
Insert earthshaking sigh here —–>
Good luck, Cj!!
I am so very attractive right now. I have 1) a mosquito bite on my inner thigh that I keep scratching, and 2) a healing tattoo on my boob that I keep wanting to scratch. Sexy.
Cj: Good luck to you! We have something that gives off vibes, I’m sure . . .
Vanamonde: I’m with you on the pricing. I’ve never tried any e-comic stuff, though.
EssBee you are so hot!!!
Lejon yes finally…
And I thank you, Wolf.
Everyone needs to listen to the latest Wander Radio, btw. It was so fun.
Re: TTM: I just came across #47 in my Google Reader feed. The link to the page with the episode worked, but there was no direct mp3 link. I’m probably late getting on this. I am still roughly 821 podcasts behind.
EssBee’s bringing sexy back.
[goodnews]I can haz job! The City of #Temecula accepted me for the Summer Youth Employment Program! Orientation is tomorrow. I can’t wait to find out what I’m going to be doing! :-D[/goodnews]
Best of luck, Cj! :-)
Great news Amy! Sending good vibes to CJ!
What Rhettro said!
What ditto said!
What JN said I said.
Yeah
Bow bow
Ooooooh yeah.
Finally got around to doing some recordings that I owed people.
Can cross that off my todo list now. :)
CJ is joining the Literati?
Good Luck, CJ – Remember, you kick butt!
If any of you can spare a few dollars, I’d appreciate any donations you can make to my ACS Relay for Life event.
Thanks.

CE: chocolate-covered cookie
CD: Earl Grey tea
CD(oing): podcast editing
What Right Fred Said!
I want a cookie right now.
Come ON!
Can I go home now.
That was a question?
And yes, congrats, Amy! That’s great news. I hope to hear all about your new working adventures.
I was actually dropping in to announce that 60 Lines 2 emails will be going out soon.
Van: RE: electronic comix publishing prices – I hear tell that the higher electronic price is meant to accommodate the Brick and Mortars buy driving clientelle in to a store to purchase a lower priced version.
WNDRwolf — Excellent. I thank you for the feed check idea. It resolved the issue. Must remember to properly embed YouTube videos using WordPress tools and not my innate HTML abilities…
JØ: It is possible that you were attempting to download, or the google page cached when I had pulled down and reloaded the media file…Curious, it was only for a couple minutes…
Congratulations AMY!
Good Luck Cj
Thank you, everyone for your good wishes!
Amy, Wootah for youtah! So proud! :)
I have done no work tonight. And yet, I have a headache.
I’m going to go find something productive to do. Maybe that’ll help.
Contratulucks to Amy & Cj.
And stop scratching EssBee, it’s damned distracting. Geez.
Well it makes a change from Jesus:

You know what bugs me? Waking up in the morning, turning on the news and seeing some new report of how someone has found Jesus in a tree/piece of toast/bird crap.
Can’t people follow simple directions? We’re supposed to be looking for Jesus in our fellow people and treating them accordingly.
Sorry I’m late, just catching up on comments. CJ: best of luck with getting the new job. If it hinges on the writing sample you turned in, I’m sure you will be fine.
Awesome news Amy! The best thing in the world is being able to get up every day and look forward to going to work.
Hey Deadpan!
Catching up:
Good luck Cj. I have all my digits crossed for you.
Congrats, Amy
Jack’s worst action movie link, I’ve seen three of them. What does that say about me?
Watched The Uninvited yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised. Even the twist at the end, that all horror movies have, was decent and (slightly) atypical. As far as B horror movies go, I might actually recommend it.
Van: Looks like Oil Barney to me.
Ed: So true
TEB: You boldly go where few dare?
Van’s demon link: Last week I ate a chip that looked like (insert favourite deity here)…
Last week I… uh, never mind. :)
I think we’d be more concerned if the oil slick looked like Cthulu. Or Adrian Zmed.
Jack: Am I in for 60/2?
Do tell, ditto. What did you do last week? Inquiring minds want to know
Getting a new heat pump today! Yea! The house will be cooler and much drier. And so will the basement. Yea!
If it will only stop fucking raining.
*shakes fist at sky*
*clouds rumble ominously*
I never kiss and tell. :)
While we had a nice weekend, it’s been raining since. With freshly laid sod, for a change I actually want the rain.
I can understand that. I think we’ve gotten about 12″ of rain over the past several days.
in the course of an hour yesterday twice we got 1.5 inches of rain.
our kitchen window started leaking so I’m taking a 1/2 day today to take care of it. Maybe some time this summer I’ll get to take a day off for fun stuff.
reaper: Fun? What’s that?
Thank you so much, everyone!
Ed: I second Ditto’s “So true.”
ditto: ummm I don’t remember!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
“I never kiss and tell. :)”
OH THE HELL YOU DONT!!!!!!!!!!!!
reaper: gets it. :)
Lo Pan: Only with you. :)
PS: Missed you.
PPS: Again.
PPPS: Now I need more ammo.
CP: Ain’t Nothin’ Like — Brad Paisley
Ah, the sweet sounds of rending from the basement.
Good try:

Looks like Joe in Sales
Me n ditto need a moment…
Help! Help! I’m being oppressed!
Thats just a ball gag. Itll be over in a sec
“this wont hurt a bit”
“its just a little prick” or
“you’ll just feel a little pinch”
I *saw* Pulp Fiction, you know.
Oh the ball gag isnt what was hurting in that film… YEEEHAW!
Did reaper just call me a little prick? Wakka.
Lo Pan, I make no judgments…
KerPOW! I think God pressed the SMITE button. :)
http://www.boingboing.net/2010/06/15/lightning-strikes-ma.html
It reminds me of Caddyshack.
reaper your very existence is based on making no judgements.
I want a SMITE button.
Lo Pan, so true
reaper <——- has a SMITE button and does at it commands.
It commands ye to get me a beer.
It’s noon somewhere
