We Finally Got Our Frankenstein... and He Was In a Spider Hole! -- by Michael Moore

Thank God Saddam is finally back in American hands! He must have really missed us. Man, he sure looked bad! But, at least he got a free dental exam today. That's something most Americans can't get.

moore is a genius, and that causes a lot of persecution. copernicus, anyone?
tadzi:
i know how you feel
i also think its REALLY interesting that saddam was found at a time when bush's popularity is waning. go figure. i really really hope that someone knocks his out next november regardless. but in al likelyhood, hes still got a few cards hidden in his sleeve. he may be a fucking idiot, but the people with their hands up his shirt know what they are doing.
im just sick of seeing his face. hes like a zit that wont go away. i hate that stupid look on his face....you know the one....where he looks really puzzled and his lips are all pursed...please...tell me hes going to lose next year.

ok, this is long, but take a minute to read it, if for no other reason to get information from a source other than fox news or cnn.

Ahh my dear. You don't know how to handle people like that? Well let me give you the 3 step program. First when you see them you immediatly start staring at them. Eye contact is crucial. It makes the recipient uneasy, off guard and fidgety. Then if that doesn't work you just haul off and punch them in the face. Now this method is widely disputed as extreme and doctors all over are trying to phase it out. But it lets the recipient know right away that you are seriously NOT smelling what they are stepping in, not picking up what they are putting down, not on the same page. Plus I don't know if you have ever punched someone in the face before (i'm sure you have, its the year 2003 for gods sake 
) but watch them after you do. There is a comical look of sheer disbelief. I don't care how bad a person is or how much fighting or martial arts they have done, but if they get punched in the face there is anywhere from a 3-15 sec pause in their whole daily activity while they decipher all of the new input to their brain. Menial stuff like "OW" or "OH MY GOD!!! did I just get punched in the face" rolls over there facial canvas louder than a Picasso painting. Then after you do that look down at her and say
"Now THATS art by jove"

Here's a heads up on some awesome rockin music coming to San Francisco this weekend !!
beledi:
bravo for that. i like showing affection to others. i like receiving that affection back. even if i don't know you (not you Tigerlily in particular, this is a general sort of 'you'), if i like what you say or think, i'm going to say dear or sweetie or etc. i like using terms of endearment and meaning them. but that doesn't mean i'm some bleeding heart who constantly is getting trampled on. i like making people feel better, and i know that when i'm down, someone leaving a random hug, or a 'sweetie' in my comments helps. i am cynical at times, but that doesn't mean i can't appreciate some good old affection.
and just for you - *hugs* for saying all that, and for being cute to boot.

wow. thank you SO much, everyone, for the thanksgiving comments. made me warm down to my toes. and made the urge to share with my family almost irresistable...until the reality of their anticipated shocked reactions made me zip my lips!

haha...you just totally reminded me of when my mom found a big bag a weed!

Yea moms are like Sherlock Holmes on roids. They can find anything. Like a soulgaze they see your innermost darkest secrets and then give you the I know what you don't want me to know look. Then the gig is up, cats out, horse has been shot, cars out of gas in the hood, the croc hunter takes one to the head...... it's over.
But look on the bright side. No matter what you do, say, take off, film or no matter where you go, your mom and I love ya so live girl live!!!!!

just got back from my aunt and uncle's where we had thanksgiving. 13 years ago when i first became vegetarian, dinner was stressful and a fiasco, and i think i had to leave the table and go cry in my room after being harrassed by my family. now this year there were several veggie entres, made by myself, my mom, my cousin and his girlfriend....

My family (3 of my grandparents still energetic and active)
My chickie
My dog (except when he's being bad!)
My musicican friends
A decently paying job that allows me to spend money on my art projects
Cool people to collaborate with
You remain, as always, super juicy!

yes. i could always come back.
but things don't always turn out that way.

Ultimately I think if you really excited about the program, you will love it. Colorado is a beautiful place, and it's only a couple of years, right? I say go for it, but I know you will miss the Bay Area!!!

yea! I like when the world around you can show you something about yourself you've forgotten or at least give you a warm fuzzy when you are feeling down
I hear ya on the hamster. I've recently opened the windows a bit and I'm hoping my brain doesn't get all worked up. at least not in a bad way. I'm hoping some things that were not visible through the smoke are able to come back to the surface and play w/ me
i like those rocks too. there was someone that always did them by the alameda ferry. It gave it an otherworldy feel, since they seemed to be there of their own accord or at least defying gravity.
(thanks for the memory I had forgotten them)

Well i am good. I wrote you back last night. I been there in them dark corridors. They are hard to navigate and even harder to get out of. I would say grab a latte and go see Elf. or Master and Commander. OR actually go see Love Actually. That movie can bring the damm Devil out of a slump.
