"last watched: Sausage Party"

- vanilla flavored vodka with orange juice tastes like a dreamsicle.

- Teddy KGB is one of the coolest movie characters of all time. "in my clup, i vill splesh the pot, venever the feck i please."

- last time i did this i bragged that my son was heading to college. now i'm not so sure about his direction. nothing criminal, he's working every day in the summer, but drive is lacking. then again how was i at 19?

- my back feels much better.

- since i discovered Booker's bourbon, everything else is like sex on a beach: fucking close to water.

- my mom is the most selfless person in the world. i know a lot of people think that about their mother, but nope. my mother is considerate to a fault.

- is a set of knives -- good fucking knives, that is, i'm talking kitchen shears, wooden storage block, bread knife, chef's knife, all that shit -- a good for-no-reason gift?

- i had a buddy in college who thought he could get away with saying the most offensive shit, just by adding, "i'm just sayin'," at the end. nobody ever beat his ass. i guess he was right. i'm just sayin'.

- the tv shows "Mythbusters" and "Bullshit" are priceless. or at least until the second season of "Dexter" begins.

- Prince's old stuff, particularly "Dirty Mind," was some of his best. but doesn't everybody say that (i like the old stuff) about their favorite artists? for my money, Sade is one of the most consistently moving performers. best concert i've ever seen. a few songs that move me: "Cold Feet" by Tracy Chapman, "We'll Meet Again" by Johnny Cash, "Souvenirs" by Bettye LaVette.

- Burger King's Texas Whopper

Um... yes, unless it was given to you by Dexter.

It's an excellent gift if the recipient doesn't already have a set, and likes cooking, and if they're top-quality knives.

Around here, there used to be a taboo against giving knife sets to newlyweds, because it was symbolic of divorce, supposedly. Some knife sellers took to placing a penny in each package so that the sets could be given to newly weddeds. The idea was that the penny would somehow perform a Christlike service of buffering the insults of the knives.

HOW does this shit get started? LOL.

damalc, you are hilarious!

And BULLSHIT is my favorite TV show too [I see it later on DVD]: I told both Penn and Teller that after I saw their show earlier this year in Vegas. [Like Blue Men, who probably copied P&T in the first place, the boys greet their audience in person as they exit.]

[Actually, let's be honest per theater history: this tradition began with frickin dinner theater.]

Actually, the superstition I know is that you don't give anything sharp to newlyweds or friends since the sharpness of the blade could "sever" the relationship. If you still want to give that present, you put a coin into the box as "change" to symbolize that you're not giving them the sharp object, but selling it to them. In some cultures the recipient is supposed to give the giver a coin.

I learned from experience not to give troll dolls to children of fundy Xtians. When my children were small, one of the neighbors kids enjoyed playing with their troll dolls. I had a bunch of these from when I was a kid and troll dolls were enjoying a resurgence of popularity.

So, I gave the neighbor kid a cute little troll doll for his birthday. His older brother later confided to me that their parents wouldn't let the child have it because it was 'satanic.'

I gave pumpkins to a fundy xtian friend because my kids enjoyed carving jack-o-lanterns. She didn't let her kids make jack-o-lanterns, because those are 'satanic.'

A jack-o-lantern is a SQUASH with a picture carved in it. A troll doll is a goofy piece of molded plastic with a happy grin and funky hair.

BTW--the kids of those families were among the most spoiled, snotty, arrogant little arseholes I've ever seen.

We've just got to episode 4 of series 1 in the UK. It's brilliant, just the sort of slightly-off-the-wall stuff Mrs C and I like to watch.

Rather than me starting another topic, thought I'd just post here to Dalmac's, with some random musings of my own.

I'm simultaneously working on cleaning up my hard drives. I have barely any free space left at all. Doing lots of stuff with video and graphics files tends to cork it up pretty fast. Housekeeping is way overdue.

My C drive is 111 GB and so far I've opened up only 15 GB of free space. That's just not enough.

My D drive is 42 GB with only 2 GB free. But that drive will be easy to clean up because it has mostly video files that I'll archive on DVD.

My computer needs another upgrade, but I can't afford it right now. I would rather upgrade than buy a new one, because I don't want to have to track down and reinstall and reupdate all my programs.

And all this time, I've thought that Mr. LaMar, to whom I was married, told his parents not to buy that knife set for our wedding present for fear that I'd kill him in his sleep.

Oh, wait. That IS the reason he told them to pass on the knife set.
