Morning, everyone!
It’s going to be a busy end-of-year.
Tackling a hot water heater today.
Sadly, I have very little “Plumbing-Foo”.
Yuck and ugh, jJ.
I missed a reunion over the weekend of my teenage NJ (Photon) crew, due to local family Thanksgiving stuff.
While missing the reunion was fine, seeing all of the then and now pictures posted online was not. I was overwhelmed with 2 things:
1. Nostalgia.
2. Oh my god, everyone is old.
Fugazi fans rejoice:

Thanks for sharing! Awesome!
CP: Fugazi – 13 Songs
I’m gonna do the whole album
Speaking of nostalgia. . . “Promises” would make a great song selection, if we do an Earbuds 2.0, part II.
Promises are shit
You are not Fugazi
My 6 year old son asked for an age-appropriate Scrabble game for Christmas. The tears of joy… oh the proud mommy I am right now…
Oh dear, he’s going going to get a sharp lesson in women’s superior language skills.
Hmmm, that’s an excellent idea for a smart kids’ gift…. I’m pretty sure Clue is in the works, since they’ve played Clue Jr. to death.
No pun intended, because there’s no death in Clue Jr. You have to figure out who ate the cookie with what drink at what time.
Do they like Harry Potter at all? HP Clue is super fun.
HP Clue? I want that! For ME!
I’ve played that. Another fantastic idea.
Hmmm, I likes HP; my girlfriend likes clue (including the movie) gears they are a turning :)
Apologies if you’ve mentioned her before, Reaper, but I’m thrilled to learn you’ve got a new lady in your life. Afterlife. Whatever.
Hubba Hubba!!!!!
Well that bloody fast.
Ignore Me, I’m just jealous as it usually takes me years to pick up the pieces.

You can’t keep a those undead men down for long.. *wolf whistle* … um… I’m incorrect on so many levels right now that they cancel each other out!
WTG Reaps.
Reaper!
My mom loves her laptop.
Ah the joys of limited access…. :(
The joys of sitting next to someone singing along to the music playing on their iPods.
The recap guy on salon.com hates Dexter. I vote he stops watching.
Agreed. Although if it drags on 2 more years like its supposed to I may change my tune
Agreed. I do think that Deb is my only reason for watching at this point. But still, why write about it if you hate it?
Cause its the opposite of the majority. “Oooh scandal! Look what this person wrote. He’s edgy”!!
See, just us talking about him is letting him win. Let the Wookie win, sure. Let the hipster douche win, nah.
CCH. Evil, evil, CCH
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIYY5p-lg-s
Oh oh, oh no!
You taunt with your Sakic Burton avatar! (JK, yo. Keep kicking ass.)
EssBee, your mention of the article made me want to read its hipster-ness.
I didn’t read it myself – I just saw the title complaining about the big reveal that he complained that they weren’t smart enough to reveal last week. Stupid hip jerk.
No taunt! No taunt! Me just like pic! You Otta know!
Sokay anyway…. go Toews er’, bro.
CD: CCH
Ugh, a late one for you!
Yep. It’s been a long day.
Sorry brother. Stay strong man. Shit gonna get betta
I hear ya! That’s why I’m treating myself to some good sake tonight. :)
Lou Reed is a character.

Oh that’s a match made in… somewhere
There.
Hot water heater is cleaned out and re-installed. I seem to have stopped all my newly installed leaks (though vigilance is called for over the next day or so). All the air has been purged from the lin and I would seem to have hot water again.
Tired.
Victory in J0e’s basement.
bow chicka wow wow?
Ha!
I think it’s too early to be morning.
WFH today!
Sorry for the long day, ditto. Good on ya for the sake.
Work Fuck Hell?
By the way Jack, Thursday’s show notes are going to be late. Month end and all that silliness.
So, while there are no puddles under the water heater there is some seepage on the connection to the inflow nipple. Do with that what you may.

I made a larger than normal (for me) pot of coffee today.

Thanks for all the well wishes Everyone! I think the things that helped me move on so easily and quickly is that my marriage was actually over about 4 years a go but I held on for her kids and I have a lot of friends who were just waiting for me to come to my senses.
I have also been friends with my girlfriend for about 16 years and dated for about a year and a 1/2 10 years ago. Last time we just kind of when our own ways because we both didn’t realize how good we where together. We both keep joking we each needed to be shit on to see what we had together. We also both have a number of friends telling us they haven’t seen either of us this happy since last time we were a couple.
weird how the world works.
The divorce is final next Monday damn 120 day waiting period.
That’s good news Reaper. I’m happy for ya!
Thanks!!! :)
EssBee,
Very glad to hear you mom likes the laptop! you really can’t go wrong with a deal like that if your not going to push the PC.
But don’t get me started about Windows 7. Actually, it’s not Windows’ fault. It’s her Viking embroidery machine’s software – crikey.
trying to connect older things to new stuff is a pain then add 64-bit into the mix and your asking for trouble
i have a win7 64-bit pc with a very nice video card and kick ass sound card and pretty good mother board I can’t use to the full potential because the companys never made 64-bit drivers win7 32-bit might work fine
I have an expensive photo printer that was “bricked” by upgrading to XP. It’s always a pain to see what won’t be supported. :(
I too have a printer/scanner that doesn’t scan under Windows 7. At the time, I went onto the HP website to troubleshoot. HP acknowledged the issue but said they were not going to do a software updated for that printer for Windows 7. At least the printer part still works.
when you buy something expensive and they won’t make new drives is when I get most annoyed even more so if Win7 was at least in beta when it came out.
Cisco had at one point said they wouldn’t make a 64bit VPN client. I don’t think they have changed on that.
I had to replace a very nice flatbed scanner when I upgraded to Windows 95, and replace the one I replaced again when I upgraded to XP. At least they got less expensive at each replacement.
how true it is:

Sweet. New 54-40 album coming out.
One album added on to the one album one album added on on on
lmao
Using my extra-caffeinated powers this morning to attack my “in box”.
Finally have it back down below 1000 (960, actually) Wahoo!!!!
This is all in preparation for upgrading my OS from 10.4 to 10.5
That never goes well.
You know what preparation Does work well? H.
^This.
It’s nice to see the wiki article on hemorrhoids is complete with helpful photos. I don’t remember the World Book encyclopedia being as complete in Jr. High.
YOU GET THAT GODDAMN LOGO OFF MY SCREEN NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!
;)
*snirt*
I’m going to play the logo game too.
As soon as Gravitar figures it out, that is.
Oilers?
I was jus’ playin Rhett. You put any logo you want. Here at Deadpan, we’re a hate free hockey zone.
As long as it’s not the Canucks.
I figured Lo, but given that the Misses and I bought Coyotes jerseys, I felt I should elevate the Coyotes as my new favorite team. That is until they move out of Phoenix (made all the more possible by the resent jersey purchase), then the Red Wings will go to the number one spot again.
Been travelling, heading back home.
I have things to do. Later Pan!
Have a good one.
And I’m here
To remind you
Of the mess you made when you boarded me
Its not fair
To deny me
Of the minutes for my crosscheck penalty
You you you Ott to know
U U U
Oh, my.
You guys are made of awesome! :)
We learned it by watching you, alright????
[Scooby] Rutuu! [/Scooby]
So who’s that guy on the Panthers with the wicked slapshot?
And I’m like, Ruutu
And who’s his brother back in Finland and who’s the one I forgot?
And I’m like Ruutu and Ruutu too
Yes, work fuck hell.
And just booked a stupid flight to Dallas for a full week in February.
Jesus… my complete condolences.
The good news, I guess, is that there is a certain optimism to assuming I’ll still have a job in February. I’ll go with that for today!
“just booked a stupid flight”
Brave choice. I tend to go with the same old boring airlines.
Stay thirsty my friend.
Who’s got a scythe and free tickets to see the Badgers play hockey next Friday
This guy!
I haven’t really watched college hockey much but it is still a free game live!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BADGERS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

not quite :)

You know it.
very intresting:
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/579151-proof-wayne-gretzky-is-the-best-athlete-in-the-nhl-or-any-sport-ever
FTA:
Gretzky had 1,963 assists in his career.
Wayne Gretzky—1,963 (assists only)
Mark Messier—1,887 (goals + assists)
Gordie Howe—1,850 (goals + assists)
Compelling-ish… but disagree.
Actually college hockey can kick ass. I’m blessed to live in an area with a couple really good teams (Wisconsin traditionally has strong team as well). I mean right now, Merrimack is #1 in the country. Who the fuck is Merrimack and how did they become a college hockey power? This I ask!
When…the fuck… did Carrie Fisher age 20 years in the last 6 months?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU2jqIRjJVI&feature=player_embedded
I would guess somewhere from right now till about the end of May or so…
Strict cocaine and vodka diets will do that to even the best of us.
It’s possible I should not try that diet.
Too much makeup (I should talk) and too much of her butt fat shot into her lips – or so it appears.
But she is sporting glitter. +5 charisma for that.
You know, I didn’t really feel the love for Carrie Fisher until Jedi. It might have been because I was 3 years old when the first came out, and about 10 when Jedi was released.
It might also have been the differences in outfits between the films.
Looking back now, she was always pretty steamy. That is, until the cocaine and vodka.
Or maybe Palpatine blasted her with Sith electricity…?
John Belushi was a Sith Lord.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NO bra in Star Wars helped
True!
that always helps
Of course it is also true for a lot of other 70′s movies.
you have a point!(or two)
Hello? Is it Smid you’re looking for?
Beats me, but this is the Zmed you’re looking for.

I was suppose to have lunch with my Boo tomorrow. The news said we have a snow storm warning for tonight. Think we’ll have lunch now instead.
You can say there’s no such thing as Santa, but as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

CW: Latest Dexter
I have a feeling Colin Hanks is really the killer and the guy from BSG is imaginary.
..and so it was.
You best be snarking and not have goddamn spoiled the season, which I am about to start tonite, for me.
snark!
This is why I love the cheeky boy
Turn the other cheek? ;)
I retract this post.
God. Dammit. Van.
Sorry Lo, from your comments on Essbee’s salon.com comment thought you were upto date.
Smack your ass, call you Charlie.
Speaking of BSG, I am well into season 4.0. While much of season 3 (all the parts on the bay ship with Baltar) sucked, season 4 has really been quite nice. It’s been a good one to work out to.
When I finish BSG I’m gonna rewatch LOST from the beginning. I did stop watching at some point mid-Season 2 so there are some episodes I haven’t seen yet.
“…season 4 has really been quite nice.”
Wait for it…
Surprise Nut Trample!
I thought Season 1 of BSG was perfect, the ones after that less so, but still worth watching.
I admit, I have a weakness for choral & orchestral metal.

Cool. Do you listen to Therion?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWSvZ0_qhbE&feature=fvwrel
Cool. I will now. :)
Shout out to Ed: I’m listening to a Song of Ice & Fire podcast recommended by the All Leather Must be Boiled blog. We could do this SO MUCH BETTER.
Having been out in the bitter cold, I am trying to decide which is worse … freezing your Bottom off or freezing off your bits.
I thought the New Caprica season was amazing (season 3, I think?). It was also the end of the amazing.
New Caprica ended mid-season, though. Then the piano music and the naked Baltar on the bay start started.
Argh!

Regarding the previously “Carrie Fisher” video.
After about 15 seconds, I just had to give up and click the “Costume Princess Leia” video in the sidebar.
Some memories simply shouldn’t be messed with.

First Deadpan post from the new PC! I’m a downright floozy, when it comes to computers. . . Let’s see how long this one sticks around.
woot
Hopefully the chewing gum on the HD will hold this time.
there’s the problem, the gum needs to go on the motherboard.
Yep. You need to keep the bits, bytes, and nibbles together. ;)
Morning Deadpan
It’s white outside
Racist.
Blame it on the rain…
You mean “lacist”
Today I have no idea what time hubby will get home.
The superintendent of his school has a bluegrass type band. When he heard hubby had a mandolin he asked hubby to join them. Today they have their first practice at 3:00. Hubby will either be home early (if it only last an hour) or late, depending upon how long they play.
How am I suppose to arrange dinner around that?
CW: The Walking Dead
I prefer the comics.
We’re a couple episodes behind on the Walking Dead. It doesn’t make it to the top of our watching list when we’re deciding to what to watch in the evenings.
Oh yeah, *morning hugs for EssBee*
Beginning to agree, even tho Ive not started the second season yet.
Last night I picked up my Secret Santa gift. Will send it out this weekend
I’ve actually got most of my Christmas shopping, if not done, at least figured out. I know what everybody’s getting except my Goddess. I haven’t the foggiest clue what to get her.
I’ve ordered all three volumes (sectors 1, 2 & 3) of this for hubby’s Christmas gift
http://www.amazon.com/Sector-1-Rush/dp/B005ORVMT2/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1322660402&sr=8-3
And then, because his birthday is the week before Christmas, I got him this for his birthday
http://www.amazon.com/Time-Machine-2011-Cleveland-Blu-ray/dp/B005D0RDKW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322660402&sr=8-1
I tend to go for themes
When hubby and I were dating, we had this strange Kurt Russell theme going. Stargate was the first movie we saw together, so I picked him up the Big Trouble in Little China movie poster. He gave me the Escape from New York video tape, and it went on from there. While it seemed cute and fun at the time, looking back I think it was very strange
I have no play by play movies in my DVR. What’s that all about?
That’s not to say I don’t have any movies recorded but they are all ones hubby wants to see (i.e. Limitless with Bradley Cooper, some sort of Ozzy Osborne documentary, etc). My TV better smarten up and start showing some really bad B Horrors again.
You can always find B Horrors on Hulu – http://www.hulu.com/elviras-movie-macabre
That’s fine if you live in the states. Hulu doesn’t work in Canada.
There are also a number on Netflix but I don’t watch a lot of stuff on there. While we currently don’t come anywhere close to our datacap but I don’t want to start pushing my luck.
And…. *morning hugs for Usedhair*
I’m in a cuddly mood this morning.
SS gift arrived, thank you Cj, I’m trying not to make a certain noise as I type..
*hugs for Vanamonde*
Umm was a tardis vanishing noise.
One of the great things about not being with my Ex is I can actually spend a little money when I want to.
I just made my first Woot! purchase and I have been a member since early 07.
*hugs for reaper*
It’s a good thing I have a plethora of hugs.
the “cuddly mood” probably helps a lot also :)
Morning pan! Preparing for meeting from hell today.
Morning ditto!
*hugs ditto*
Woot!
Morning ditto!
*hugs ditto, exposing him to a plethora.*
Whoa, Rhetty. No need to expose yourself. ;)
Oh, oh! Rhetto gets a hug too *hug*
*glee*
CP: Swamped (acoustic version) — Lacuna Coil
Kind of describes lately.
Awesome song choice.
Great band. I need to get more of their stuff.
Plus I hear the singer is “easy on the eyes.” :)
Cosa? I have no idea what you are talking about?
*whistles innocently*
Ok, the love fest is over. I have things to do.
Hubby will be happy. ;)
Trust me babe, I make sure hubby is always happy
I’m not sure why but the “exposing him to a plethora” made me think of the McDonald’s Hope in the Happy Meals but Isn’t how Pandora’s box worked?
A plethora of flavor in every box.
that makes scene! along with who knows what else is in there
Well this remake is definitely going to suck. :(

I think Bieber would be the ultimate Tetsuo.
I thought Hollywood’s default was always Keanu?
Funny, I was going to make a Keanu comment. He’s gotten his gnarly hands into every other major cyberpunk franchise, why not Akira?
Early on, he was rumored to be involved. I think he still is on the production side.
Unfortunately, he’s definitely involved in the 47 Samurai film. :(
Whoa.
Then again, who wouldn’t want to be involved with a Keira?

Hey, I’m not picky!
Let me spell my name out for you, it’s Ricky.
R – Ravishing
I – Impressed
C – Courageous or careless
K – for the Kangoes that I’ve got, that I wear every day, and
Y – Why not?
Never gonna give you up…
Van – I can’t believe it got there so fast!
I made sure to ship it EARLY – but… I’m definitely impressed with the speed. I sure hope you like it.
Crap (and very non PC) joke alert:
A Red Indian introduced me to his wife… “this is Four Horses”.
I said “wow thats a beautiful name”, what does it mean? He replied “NAG, NAG, NAG, fuckin NAG”…
Well peeps, if you were getting a gift for a Goddess, what would you get? I’m at a total loss.
(note: not a secret Santa gift so can cost more)
Best of Journey CD, Dig Dug lanyard, Fraggle Rock DVD, Canadian adult beverage of some sort…
Just go easy on the sacrifices. Most goddesses aren’t as keen on those as they used to be.
A Cabana boy.
Hmm if she’s truly a Goddess, she probably already has a cabana boy. Sacrifices are so old-school. I think what Goddesses really need these days are hugs. Big fluffy ones.

“But we don’t live in a vacuum. We live on Earth. And that means we have to accept the real-life consequences of a culture in which recorded music no longer has monetary value, and one of those consequences is Lulu.”
LOL
Metallica had some good songs in their day, but I’m finding my decision to move on from them in the late 90′s, validated every album release since.
Do you even know who Lulu is?
/skeptical hmmmm
Why it’s a terrible name for an album:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lulu_(singer)
Little Lulu I love youlu just the same…

(too damn funny)
“I’m glad Metallica and Reed tried this, if only because I’m always a fan of bad ideas. ”
Here here! Some of the highlites of my youth were based on bad ideas.
As were some of the worst moments … but man, THAT’S being alive (although some times almost not being so)!
Poor, burnt Lou.
I’ve just discovered that one of the bad guys in ‘Diamonds are Forever’ is Crispin Glover’s Dad.
