Well, I know the summer is definitely coming to an end, and Im rather annoyed, yet exhausted just the same. Tonight was one of the last pool parties /slash/ Adult Swim Drunken Messes of the year (some of the pix have been added to my pics folder if youre curious, with permission from participants).

Wednesday I leave for a short vacation on the Maine coast....

Conversation with someone who, while having achieved a level of success and executive power at my old company, is also fighting (and losing) a political game with the higher ups.

I came up with "better to have been in the party and not get served than never to have gotten past the doorman."

And that was off the cuff, no less. Trump THAT, Wordsworth!!

I promise, last Killers song for the remainder of time.

Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink-- you might miss
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight
It's not...

She's calling a cab while he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag; now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick, and its all in my head
But she's touching his
chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look: its killing me and taking control

Hey I bought the above CD this...

I find you in the morning, after dreams of distant signs
You pour yourself over me, like the sun through the blinds
You lift me up and get me out
Keep me walking but never shout
Hold the secret close, I hear you say...

My mind is swirling tonight, and not just because I narrowly escaped having to see the...

"FUCK this ship, Doctor." Laurence Fishbourne is one baaaad (shutyomouth) . . .

In real life, I've always loved the roller coasters, but to extend the metaphor (touche, sweets, the analogy battle is on!), I've always been better on the merry-go-round. Always wanted to ride the bumper cars more, and thats where I'm at, but this horse is the closest to the brass ri . . wait a sec -- sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. To be continued. . .

What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in Vegas, but somehow it always pops up in stories told in other cities regardless. Yes, leave the psychological seatbelts at home.

And I had too much caffeine

Yeah there she was... like disco lemonade

You cried?!? What are you, like, a girl or something?!? Wussy!! wink But kudos for finally making it to the credits. Like you, I never made it to the theater for that one. Sounds like a required rental?

How's that Dostoy read coming? Reminds me of the episode of CHEERS when Sam Malone read "War and Peace" overnight to impress Diane and Frasier Crane.

Great new pics. EL SUICIDO LOCO

The problem with the Ray equation is that it also = genius music. Or so the legacy states.

We just got back from Hustle & Flow. Much better than 8 Mile, which I thought was weak. Now I'm not a fan of the current mainstream hip hop scene, but damn if that hook isn't catchy - "whup that trick (git 'em) . . whoop that trick (git 'em). . ."

You know, I worked with Clint one time. In the Line of Fire. Motorcade scene. . . er, um, that got cut. I was in the crowd, ahh, with the other thousand extras. . . . but it happened, dammit!!

So I began on my long quest to get a passport today. Among other things, I had to straighten out my name on my social security number (guess that idea to go with Wonder Woman wasn't such a hot idea after all!). Now, I...

You know whats funny? The creepy guy looking inside your window and watching you sleep in your underwear isn't going to be your landlord, but one of us fellas who dig the image and want to see it in real life. Aw, you done did it now, girl.

BTW, holy water doesn't work on zombies. As Tom Savini says, "Shoot 'em in the head. That's the only way to stop 'em. You gotta shoot 'em in the head. . . .HEY TOMMY, GET THAT LADY OVER THERE, SHE'S A TWITCHER!!" . . . . huh-huh-huh, that guy was cool.

Should I feel shame for not wanting to sell my Hole CD?

I remember Timer (although, until this day, I never knew his name was "Timer") from the 80s - he might have been in the 70s, too, but I distinctly remember him from the 80s.

And looking back now, at the Public Service Announcements of my youth and the fucked up characters therein, I feel a sense of understanding for my poor state of mental health of my generation.

Vanz-

You said it! The Generation X crowd finally has a scapegoat: the twisted PSAs fromour youth. If I'm ever on trial, that will be my diminished mental capacity defense.

"Everyone's in their own personal coma
You have endless ways you can commit suicide without DYING dying.

from Diary by Chuck Palahniuk

A little morbid, but overall, the novel was fantastic. Isn't everything by Palahniuk?

Alrighty God, the joke's over. The gig is up. It was funny at first, but come on now, this is MASSACHUSETTS: it shouldn't be circling...

You guys all crack me up!

Actually, the caption I wrote for the pic was that I was "peering out," but now that I see how it was broken, it does appear that I am PEEing on Emily Dickinson's grave hahahahah biggrin Wow I hope no one from the Amherst Historical Society is on SG: they will be pissed!
