"I think so, Brain, but...me and Pippy Longstocking? What would the children look like?"

i love that show.
mmm... tomorrow, i get to have granny's homemade, takes-two-days-to-make noodles, and her apple pie, pecan pie, lemon meringue pie, and mincemeat....yum!
oh, and that article in The Village Voice is actually about the Rocky Horror Show. Lea DeLaria performs the roles of Eddie and Dr. Scott.
Lea DeLaria, quoted here in The Village Voice:

"Dr. Smith in Lost in Space was the closest thing to a gay character on TV. He was so faggy! You could tell he was gay because every time Will Robinson bent over, the robot would say, 'Danger, Will Robinson!' "

i'm gonna pretend that i have more than one person reading this, k?

for anyone interested in the upcoming Americanized Queer as Folk, Showtime has some video clips up for viewing. my favorite is "Comfort Food."
Concerning Buffle Night, i think she's said anything i would have said, plus some.

Mikey missed Buffy, and most of Angel. he rang the doorbell just as Angel was chowing down on Kate. i made him wait outside.

you know, the snake beast in Buffy looked better than the ones in Xena and Hercules. i'm proud of them.

i'm addicted to this guy.
why do i feel like i must post something worthwhile, something illuminating, something of professional quality? here's why.

it's really cool when someone you know has their name in print as an author in a magazine. congrats again, Jean.

'Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?' - Letter to Dr. Laura
he he! i will refrain from comment.
you know, i shouldn't make fun of mechanics. i'm dating one. but i can still make fun of specific people who just happen to be mechanics, right?
yesterday was my sister Dawn's birthday. she's 23 now. it just amazes me. she's still my baby sister, and that's how i remember her.

i called her yesterday. we had a good talk for a while. my father has agreed to let her see my little brother. so we were talking about that, and she told me that he's in high school now. his voice has changed. he plays football. i haven't seen him in almost 4 years. my father won't let me see him. i cried. i hate my father.

i had a flat tire this morning. i went to get it fixed:

"i need to have my tire replaced."

"ok. which one?"

"the front left side."

"uh..." eyes beginning to glaze as he tries to puzzle this out.

"the front driver's side."

"front... driver's... side... ok..."

"are you sure you're a mechanic? for cars, i mean?"

Congratulations Jean!
important lesson learned this weekend:

when you set your VCR timer to record a program on WB19, remember that, on the cable line-up, WB19 moved to channel 12.

you know what. this page looks really cool on my new moniter. i upgraded from a 13 inch to a 19 inch. woo hoo for me! Diablo II is kick ass on a screen this size.

this is fun.
from the White Wolf Vampire: the Masquerade forum,

someone mentioned that Dr. Suess should have written the Constitution:

Preamble
A perfect Union people seek,
to get some Justice and some sleep,
provide for defense, Welfare too,
secure the Blessings for every Who.
my hot chocolate attacked me this morning. i am now wet and sticky down my right side.
i think Comedy Central should file a lawsuit against ABC News. after the election, ABC began calling the hullabaloo in Florida "Indecision 2000". Comedy Central has been calling it that since campaigning began, and it's something of a trademark. ABC thought they were being clever.

but they've changed it now. maybe Comedy Central's attorneys sent a strongly worded letter to ABC. whatever the reason, they're now calling it "A Nation Waits 2000." it's not as clever as stealing someone's trademark, but hey, they had short notice.

but really, is the nation waiting? does anyone really care about all this? are we sitting at home wondering, worrying, and anticipating? nope. whether it's voter apathy, cultural apathy, or just that people don't realize the historocity and potential consequences of all this, noone cares. go home. leave us alone.
