Okay, fine

For some unknown reason, late one night, Jason and I got in a heated debate about whether or not Fredrick Douglas invented peanut butter. I contended that I had learned this in elementary school, and thus, that it had to be true (Fredrick Douglas is the gentleman with the white hair).

Unfortunately, once I looked it up on Wikipedia, I realized I was thinking of George Washington Carver (the top gentlemen). Being a person who is able to admit my mistakes, I then began to expound about G.W.C. who invented peanut butter....and then I ruined the whole thing by looking it up on Wikipedia...And of course I'm wrong.

I swear, these are the kind of retarded arguments we have on a regular basis.

I knew it!

Still working on my "tequila makes you smarter" theory...

I never did like Triscuits

I got all excited and thought I was going to be able to add to my "celebrities-with-glass-eyes" blog...but, alas, it was not to be.

Yeah, I really have nothing better to do.

There is something wrong with me

If there's something wrong with you, too, you might be interested in this site. Find the graves of the famous and...I don't know, dance around like a wild injun? If I ever make it to Texas again, I will be visiting Bill...and here's why.

Is it just me (I have the sneaking suspicion that it is) or does the new movie version of "Hairspray" seem really unnecessary? I'm sure the musical was just fine and dandy blah blah blah, but really....do we really need to see John Travolta dressed as Edna Turnblatt? From the brief clips I've seen (the clips may have been longer, but I couldn't force myself to watch them), it seems as if the musical has completely toned down the trashy parts of the original movie...not that the original was as trashy as some of Mr.Waters' other work, but it at least had a little element of sleaze to it that was so...endearing. At least to me, but I have this feeling that I am not exactly representing the American people on this one. Anyway....does John Travolta play the station owner in this movie as well as Edna? I guess it all boils down to the fact that without Divine, this movie seems like a waste. Of course, I could be wrong, but I think this is one of those rare occasions when I'm not. I just hope John Waters has made a shit ton of money out of the musical and the movie and will be turning out a quality movie sometime in the future.

I am yet again stealing a link from Kevin Smith...but these are just too damn cool to not be seen (I'm going to make a wild guess that more people look at Kevin Smith's myspace page than my blog....I know, it's a stretch, but...yeah).


We had ourselves a kick ass weekend...Went to Indy and hooked up with Johnny and Stef (who we haven't seen since my baby shower) and invaded Dave's house. We are either A.)old fogies or B.)broke, because all we did was drink and sit out on Dave's porch. And laugh. A lot. I forgot what it's like to hang out with people who you can't embarrass, disgust, and are totally comfortable with. I seriously think we might just be the five funniest people on the planet.

Continuing the Jeff Bridges love....

From Lebowskifest

I love this man

I wish I could have found a better picture, but, alas, I am lazy. Anyhoo, check out Mr.Bridges official website...it includes his own photography, some awesome links, and is quite nifty looking.

I am bored

So I thought I'd post this photo of Tom Waits from "The Outsiders". I'm not ashamed to admit it (well, not all that ashamed) but I rushed out when the new special edition of this movie came out on DVD and bought it. Ah, Ponyboy...although I'd have to say, for my money, Matt Dillion is the main attraction. Ah, Dallas Winston...unfortunately for me, after viewing this movie approximately 90 million times while growing up, I fear I may have developed a horrible "bad boy" fixation, which lead me to date some really..well, good looking bad boys who treated me like dirt. I blame you, Dallas Winston! Anyway...isn't it bizarre that Tom Waits was in this movie? His character's name was Buck, and if I wasn't too lazy, I'd get up and find the book and tell you the last name as well, but...what with being on my third beer (another drunken blog, yay!) and all...Yeah.

I'm beginning to think this whole blogging thing may not be for me...I think I'm essentially a boring person who really has nothing interesting to say, other than waxing rhapsodic about "The Outsiders" and other retarded shit. I'm sure there's a vast internet movement toward lame Midwestern moms who bitch about their lives and give cute little anecdotes about pop culture...and then go on and on about how they don't think they should be blogging in the first place...AGH!

Oh well. I thought this was funny.... I'll shut up now.

The first is with Marianne Faithful.

River's way into "The Muppets Take Manhattan", so....

While looking for mp3s for my stupid mp3 player on my stupid myspace page, I typed in the Ramones, who I of course love (and saw on the day Clinton got elected, just to give you an idea of what an old fart I am). Anyhoo...it is astonishing to me how many people think the song "Blitzkreig Bop" is called "Hey Ho Let's Go". Equally puzzling is the many (over 50, and I'm not exaggerating) people who'd uploaded the song "What I Like About You" and credited it to the Ramones. Maybe they covered it or something, but the five or six times I clicked on the links, it most certainly was not the Ramones...I think it's the Romantics or something. So....yeah, I let random crap annoy me.
