Hooters has dipping sauce butter?!
Its called semen.
WHOOPS! I hit the self censorship button way too late.
Okay, gag.
Oh you love me.
I love you, but dipping sauce + semen is definitely on the top 5 list of why I bat for the team I do.
blech.
Hey I dont have a choice in that no matter what team I bat for…
Batter up?
CP M.I.A. “Teqkilla”
New album’s 3rd track. So far me likey, but i’ve heard this one and XXXO (2nd track) already.
OHAI semen.
LOLzemen
I have a love/hate relationship with M.I.A.
Lo: Can’t say she’s ever won me over either, though there is some interesting stuff on the new album.
I shall fish out the recipe, Jack
I don’t think I’ve heard any M.I.A..
OMG track 10 is melting my face.
CP M.I.A. “Meds and Feds”
I have a love/hate relationship with semen.
Gruyere cheese, 1/4 C sour cream, 1 T Dijon mustard, 1 T maple syrup, dash Tabasco, 3 or 4 eggs, turkey, ham or prosciutto.
Whip together sour cream, mustard, maple syrup, Tabasco, eggs. This is your batter for dipping.
Make sandwich. I do bread, turkey, ham, Gruyere, ham, turkey, bread.
Dip in batter, coating sandwich. Fry until golden brown.
Serves 2.
I also have a love/hate relationship with Jeremy’s semen.
Wow, I did not see all this semen talk coming.
You never do til its in your face.
LOL
I lovelovelove MIA, but don’t have the new album. Hey! I should get the new album.
Pitchfork hates the new album which prolly means Ill enjoy it
“Pitchfork”? Great, now I’ve got “Forkboy” stuck in my head. Where’s my “Natural Born Killers” soundtrack? . . .
In the 2$ bin?
Why isn’t the new m.i.a. on itunes?
Really? I thought it was a good soundtrack. Lots of variety. The movie doesn’t hold up.
It should be Ess.
Oh I just bought the Airheads and Beavis and Butthead Experience so Im not talking quality of t he soundtrack. Im talking thats where you find it these days.
Yeah, very true.
Crap EssBee youre right
90s soundtracks rulz.
Well I picked up a few songs with a bday gift card. I can’t get the one that something’ed Jeremy’s face off though. Darn.
“You never do til it’s in your face” LOL
I agree. I still think “Lost Highway” is one of the best ever.
And the worst movie ever. Soundtrack does rock and roll tho very much.
I mean come on, EssBee!
Soundtracks I own:
The X-Files: The Album
I Am Sam
Trainspotting
Garden State
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Radio Sunnydale
Crossroads
Dave Chappelle’s Block Party (which is a doc I’d highly recommend)
Garden State is a fantastic soundtrack. I just saw I Am Sam this year. Good flick.
I Am Sam is a total tear-jerker.
YES. I said “jerker.” Go ahead.
OMG, Mel Gibson is scary.
Trainspotting!
*sigh*
You already did, EssBee. You already did.
LOLZ!!!!!!! N-Word, C-Word Distance Themselves from Mel Gibson
http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/the_soup/b189900_n-word_c-word_distance_themselves_from.html
Never saw Trainspotting.
Okay, that’s odd. There’s a local Mexican joint we’ve been to. Good food, nice place. Thought I could maybe order some pick-up. Go to their website, and the only menu they have is their drink menu. Yeah.
I’m off to make Asian meatballs – which just means balls of meat with garlic, onion, fish sauce, and lime zest – served with rice and lettuce (we make a wrap).
COME ON!!
Go on!
I um..
Well…. I was reading the above comments and …
Long Pan is dirty.
That is all.
(disclaimer: that doesn’t mean I don’t like it)
So, my Ipod Touch is now getting all iOS4′d – Steve told me to do it.
What am i getting myself into now?
Happy Birthday Bunny!
CP: Jamie Cullum – Wheels
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBHsOMEiXPY
Oh, this is lovely.
I’ve updated my ipod to OS4.
Now, Itunes tells me that I need to update Itunes in order to use my “new” Ipod.
I’ve been trying to update Itunes for the last week already and it has failed every attempt.
I may be in for a long evening.
Ed: When I upped to OS4, all of the music and videos were wiped from my phone. Pictures, contacts, apps were all fine. I have been told by my neighbor that his phone now runs faster with OS4. Mine runs much, MUCH slower. I do like being able to put apps into folders now. 10 pages of apps down to 3 pages of apps (hoopy-doopy).
Well, apparently all it required was some careful surgery to remove some corrupted Quicktime references that can cause the install to crash. Found lots of useful hits on the error I was getting.
I just hope this damn thing still plays music. Call me old fashioned.
Ed, I’m into the Goodkind book now – digging it!
Here is the purest, most distilled piece of truth you will ever see for the rest of your life. Bask in it:
http://thatwillbuffout.com/2010/07/09/funny-car-photos-my-thoughts-exactly/
EssBee – I just finished the sixth book today. It has been called his version of Atlas Shrugged, though I must say I find his version better. Atlas Shrugged is pure depression without hope. Faith of the Fallen starts us down that road, but brings it around.
It is proving to be a very rich world Goodkind has come up with. More than I expected. I think you will be pleased overall.
Essbee – bah on the descentors! Bring on the Bread & Butter pickle recipe!
Tonights odd occurance.
So I’m on a bike ride and as I pass a neighbors house my eyes scan the neatly stacked pile-o-stuff at the curb. Seems someone has done some major house cleaning. I am doing my best to avert my gaze (just like at garage sales, you have to keep repeating the mantra “IT”S OTHER PEOPLE”S JUNK!”) but something about the box on the end catches my eye and I stop and look in.
There in the fading light of day I see someone’s entire baseball card collection.
What’s a boy to do?
It followed me home of course. 5 albums full of 1990 – 92 baseball cards in near mint condition … including several “special” cards in their own hard plastic sleeves.
It all feels very wrong. The people who threw this stuff out have lived in the house less than a year and I really haven’t had the chance to meet them. I have never seen any kids about so I suspect they kids have moved off … but who throws out their kid’s baseball card collection?
I fear there is a bad story involved here … but I couldn’t leave these things out to get rained on.
Joe: That seems rather sad.
Hmm… J0e, that does seem weird… maybe they didn’t belong to a kid?
Still weird that they were tossing and not selling them.. :-/
Hell, it happened often enough in the 50′s and 60′s, that’s the whole reason there is a market in the first place. Hundreds of moms entirely ignorant of the potential value.
Slightly odd that they weren’t more aware now, but…
ditto – Thanx for Die Antwoord link.
B5 is on Netflix? Queued!
Soundtracks:
Sliver
Great Expectations
The Dark Knight
… Yup.
J0e – I hear about that happening shortly after a couple marries, but that’s about the only time normally.
The “Great Expectations” sdtk is excellent.
As is the “Cruel Intentions” sdtk.
As is the “A Life Less Ordinary” sdtk.
And of course, “Singles”.
J0e, there might not be a sad reason for the baseball card sale, the thirty-something could have moved out long ago and told the parents, “yeah whatever, I haven’t looked at those cards in years”. You’re probably not profiting from someone’s misfortune.
Late. Blech. Night,
s
Morning Pan, on the sound tracks you own theme:
The Black Hole (LP and audio tape)
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
2001 (audio tape)
Off to see the doc about the results of my X-ray.
(In case anyone was wondering, I do not endorse the Sliver soundtrack. It has Enigma and nothing else going for it. Blech.)
http://www.kadir-buxton.com/index.htm
:snicker:
I know this is incredibly dorky, but I don’t care.
Vampire Diaries start shooting season 2 today! Yay!
Sooo X-Rays shows I have the first signs of osteoarthritis in my back and knee.
If I was a horse I would be heading to the gnackers yard.
Oh dear, it would be a bad idea for me to type out the whole list of movie scores/soundtracks that I have. I don’t think Jack’s host has that much space.
:-)
Yee Ha! 110°F heat index today!
Whose ready to come for a visit?
:)
I’m with you Ed. Far too many sound tracks to list them all. Some highlights though would be:
Heavy Metal
Flash Gordon
Amadeus
Emmet Otter’s Jugband Christmas
A Clockwork Orange
Team America
The Ultimate Pink Panther
justa J0e: I asked Lady J to get the recipe. It’s apparently her aunt’s. It’s pending, but I have no timeframe for you.
re: Ayn Rand: I’ve done no additional research past when I first learned about her. My biggest complaint, and certainly the easiest target, is her belief that some nice chap will make roads for the common good.
re: cards: I had quite a few baseball cards, all mint, growing up. When I finally turned my thoughts to selling them, I found that I would be lucky to get something like $5 for them. Tossed.
Vanamonde: That’s shit. Hopefully there’s some PT kind of thing that helps?
Our soundtracks:
Animatrix – decent, couple gems
As Seen on TV – does this count? I think so. Some really good stuff
Beavis & Butthead Do America – good
Garden State – excellent
Gladiator – great, if you’re into that sort of thing. We are.
Lost Highway – excellent
Spawn – really good
Matrix – good
Matrix: Reloaded – disc 1 is good, 2 is shite.
Natural Born Killers – good
Robotech: Battlecry Game Soundtrack – sucks ass
Scream 2 – I’m not sure I ever listened to this. But here it is.
Trainspotting – Huh. We do have this. Looks good. My memory is slipping.
X-Files – I don’t remember. I think it’s decent.
I had:
Eternal Champions on CD – music is recorded in Red Book audio, and it’s decent to listen to once in a while if you enjoyed the game.
Hardware – if in the mood, pretty decent. Must replace.
Johnny Mnemonic – Another crap movie with a really good soundtrack. Must replace.
Lords of Thunder game – also with Red Book audio. Awesome guitar, fantastic music. On my to-replace list.
Here are soundtracks that come to mind (I’m sure I own more):
Until the End of the World
Natural Born Killers
Lost Highway
Magnolia
Purple Rain (LP)
Mulholland Drive
Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me
O Brother Where Art Thou
And Motion Picture Scores:
The Crow
Dances With Wolves
American Beauty
Fight Club
Twin Peaks TV Score
The Player
Good morning.
Soundtracks I have off the top of my head.. hmmm
Xanadu
Fame
Rocky Horror Picture Show
The Other Sister
Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey
American Pie
Purple Rain
The Little Mermaid
Mamma Mia
Daddy Daycare

Electric Dreams
Tron
And with that… I’m off to work.
Hope you all have a magnificently stress-free day!
Oh, and Dr. Horrible’s SingAlong Blog
No love for the ‘Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?’ ST? Surprisingly downhomey wonderful.
J0e Id have done the same thing with the cards. If for no other reason I’m a packrat and I hate seeing things go to waste.
Crap, JB already gave it love. Dammit why cant I read right the first time?
We really like soundtracks, especially movie scores. I don’t have all of ours on my iPod, but here’s what I have right now:

I’m sure I’m missing plenty from my list.
No Flesh Gordon? Thats tops on my pops.
Oh, I do also have Dr. Horrible and Oh Brother. COME ON
justa, you got it babe. Recipe coming.
Van, thinking about you. I just had a mess of labs to figure out what horrible thing I have that makes me cranky and sore and puffy and bleh. We can be in this together.
Together we can.
compelling argument engage:

Good Morning
!
I refuse to comment on my soundtracks without having my music collection present…
Re: Sound tracks. Me likey. I get some good music I would have never picked up. And some of my favorite bands get some exposure. One problem I have is some of the music I recognize form movies doesn’t make the sound track.
Guess that is what I get for not listening to much new music for about 10 years, liking classical music and liking Christian rock.
If it weren’t for the kids I don’t thing I would have downloaded music made this century. I have to many podcasts/books to listen to.
Soundtracks? How did I know that the three I own would already be mentioned by the other Deadpanites?
Tron
The Matrix
City of Angels
I’d really like to get:
A Clockwork Orange
Star Wars
Fight Club
and
The Lord of the Rings
Dont forget Avatar!
Lo: That score is pretty good, especially if you like Horner’s work.
The only Matrix album I have is the score to the 3rd movie, which I like quite a bit.
As in “Do You Want To Date My?”
Done.
Flesh Gordon or Avatar…? Wakka.
CP: Sleeping — Man In Gray
The one without the penisaurus.
This is way too cute.
http://kotaku.com/5585447/this-chun+li-has-tiny-thighs
Make the bad man stop
Rhettro’s not *that* bad. ;)
CP: What Your Soul Sings — Massive Attack
Lo Pan, don’t forget what now…
Good answer.
R.I.P George Steinbrenner
http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/sports/George-Steinbrenner-Dies-of-Massive-Heart-Attack-98314429.html
I morbidly laugh every time i here massive heart attack because it makes me thing of Attack of the killer tomatoes with a different shape.
I also own the Crow sdtk (excellent), Natural Born Killers (good), Pi (pretty good), plus a bunch of others. The 3 I mentioned last night really stuck out in my mind as being good.
The Crow sdtk may be my fave though. What a great album.
Jack, I agree The Crow sdtk never left the 12 disk changer in my car other than when I ripped it and just just because it was hard to get to and I should have installed it in a better place.
Your dizzy head is conscience laden
Not to sound cruel, but I recall many people praying for Steinbrenner’s death in the 80s. I think there was still a lot of bitterness about the Reggie Jackson thing.
Ah reaper, I remember those trunk installed multi-disk changers
And oh yeah:
O Brother, Where Art Thou
Patch Adams (it was a free promo)
X-Files TV and Movie sdtks.
I guess Al Davis will be next
Jack, The joy of have a highschool job and lots of disposable income. The next car I had (94 t-bird) I installed the changer in the glove box. It took a little modifying but it fit. I would have rather put it in the center console but it was a little to small.
CP: She’s White — Electric Six
I hate it when the console is too small for your big equipment.
with out having the sound tracks in front of me I can remember off had having
The Crow
Tank Girl
Maximum Overdrive
Interview with a vampire
Set it off
Firday
Bullworth
Batman forever
I know I had a lot more some as a result of the highschool job again, some from the kids and some from my late brother.
EssBee, It is a cross I must bare…
Oooh, I have Tank Girl also.
Me too, reaper, me too.
Tank Girl = teh_bomb
EssBee, I got Take girl for the Magnificent Bastards song but found plenty of other gems on it.
oops take = tank
and yes Lo I agree Tank Girl = The bomb
ooo lunch time
and time to finish Babylon 5: S1E1
Is there anything to be done about your knees, Van?
The Crow! :smacks head:
Of course. I also have the Crow, Crow 2, and Queen of the Damned soundtracks.
Is the Run, Lola, Run soundtrack as good as all that?
reaper – Maximum Overdrive. Excellent!
That Chun-Li is charming
And reaper – Maximum Overdrive? Awesome!
Nomad Scry, I think most people forget it was a sound track. it is one of my favs
Maximum Overdrive… *swooon*
Yes Van, sorry to learn the bad news. I hope the treatment is effective and easy.
I’m starting to find the out of station graphic in Babylon 5 charming. It makes me thing of Tron everything I see them. I like it!
CW: Babylon 5: S1E2
I like this show
holy shit is that a mini Etch-A-Sketch with out the knobs!!!
Van: Sucks about your knees. That’s never fun.
Maximum Overdrive soundtrack was great.
Ya they when there fing funny:
http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts-apparel/unisex/generic/e44d/
I love think Geek.
RE: Knee
For the moment, nothing to be done and it’s ok for now, but will get worse in the future.
Thanks everybody, I know I often joke about feeling old, but today it sort of hit home that I’m getting on a bit …
Oh, Whoopie!! “Mel Gibson is my friend. He’s not a racist.”
missed the comment over night. Hope you can do something to help the knees and back Van
interesting read about caffeine
http://lifehacker.com/5585217/what-caffeine-actually-does-to-your-brain
Van, I feel your pain. I have osteoarthritis in my knees also. I was on crutches for it… gruesome pain!
They injected me with Synvisc – has that been suggested/mentioned to you? It worked!
Re: Movie Soundtracks
“Blade Runner” is most excellent. Sorry Van.
I am also a “O Brother, Where Art Thou” owner.
Today’s bike ride discovery.
Someone was throwing out a used but PERFECTLY GOOD drafting table! Complete with the up and down straight edge thingy and a tilting surface … I couldn’t fit it on my bike and have absolutely no place to put it but I mean … Come ON!!
More zucchini issue forth from my garden.
Corn can not be far off.
as far as graphic novels go I have only read watchman anyone agree with anything on this list:
http://egotvonline.com/2010/07/13/10-great-graphic-novels-besides-watchmen/
I would like to read more of them I just don’t end up having/making the time for them
justa J0e, if you had a pencil and some paper you could quick draw up some device made from things available on the side of the road so you could get to home…
Interesting reaper, I’ve never heard of any on that list. So far I have read four graphic novels total. If I were to rank them it would be something like:
1. Watchmen
2. Kingdom Come
3. Batman: Return of the Dark Knight
4. Batman: The Killing Joke
so thats how they work:
http://i.imgur.com/kbwCQ.jpg
Exactly what Rhett said about the Graphic Novels, although I’d rank Dark Knight Returns #2. Never heard of any of the titles in that Top 10.
I’d also add Frank Miller’s Elektra miniseries (the one with the demon and the Kennedy).
Joe: Gah! I’ve been wanting to get a drafting table for a long time now. :(
reaper: Nope. I don’t like that list at all, and I’ve heard of most of those. I agree with the suggestions that Rhettro made. I can make a bunch of suggestions, but it really depends on what you like to read. For instance, “Blankets” (http://www.powells.com/biblio/1891830430) is awesome, but not everyone would like it.
Jack: I love that one.
“I’ve got the button” :)
reaper: If you liked “Watchmen” you’ll probably enjoy a lot of Moore’s other works such as “V for Vendetta” and “From Hell”.
Miller is also good, but sometimes he can really go astray, like his most recent works. Most of “Sin City” is good, and “300″ is excellent. “Batman: Year One” is also very good.
To be fair, the list that reaper posted wasn’t bad. Hellblazer tends to be a good series, though I haven’t read the one on the list. And I know that “Daredevil: Born Again”, “Alias” and “We 3″ are highly regarded. I just don’t think that the items on that list are really great. Good? Yes. Great? No.
ditto I think other novels from Moore is a good place to start. I tend to get comfortable with an author and read a lot of there stuff.
I had a feeling that list had things there were not very well know here at least because I didn’t remember anyone saying anything about them.
Graphic Novels: I’m fond of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and V for Vendetta
As an alternate list, how about this one?
http://www.altdaily.com/features/arts/literature/the-best-graphic-novels-of-the-decade.html
I don’t entirely agree with it either–every list is personal–but I think it represents a better selection of great graphic novels.
The only title that is on both lists is “The New Frontier”. I haven’t read it–I never really liked the art style–but maybe I should.
And then there is manga…. :)
I have quite a few graphic novels and manga, even though I’m pretty picky about what I buy. If you are ever looking for something “different” let me know.
