I can tell you, it is Worried by your fligglesbit facial growth That looks like A brisket. What's more, it knows Your philatelist potting shed Smells of bogy. Everything under the big vindictive sky Asks why, why do you even bother? You only charm litterboxs. |

| Melissa, I only pushed the button once. But I may have added and apostrophe. It's hard to blog when you're barely conscious. Phlem, I watched Episode 2 some time back. In all honesty, I don't remember much except Yoda. I guess the plot was a bit flat. Oh, and there's no rule about long blogs. I would have loved to see the maid from the Jetsons in it. They could have put in a few steamy scenes between her and R2D2. Oh, now I remember, it had those 'close encounters of the thrid kind' aliens in it. I still don't remember much of it. | ||||

I just posted this on my blog, but I have some questions in here that I would like some answers to, and since you're all such smart, sexy people, I thought I would posit them here. Hope I'm not breaking some cardinal blog rule by being a text-hog. OK. I finally saw the latest Star Wars installment, that clone war thingie,and I have some questions for someone more versed in Star Wars than myself. First of all, didn't that Dooku guy look like a Harry Potter wannabe on that airborne moped thingie near the end? When I saw that, I said "Ciao!" a la Eddie Izzard. Also, that Djago Fett (sorry, don't know the spelling on these names) had that 1950's japanese spaceman outfit with the jet pack--what's with all the retro stuff in this one??? I half expected someone to shout "Will! Penny! Get back in the ship! Danger, Will Robinson!" Uniblab could have blended nicely, or the maid from the Jetsons. Oh, and where'd they get the annakin actor? A soap opera? Ewan Macgregor seemed natural in his role, but it's too bad he couldn't have been the hot-blooded Annakin, oui, ladies? OK, I realize that Annakin and Amidala have been through a lot together, what with nearly getting executed and all, and we know from eps 4-6 that they are destined to, um, er, be together, but... OK. She IS a politician, and heck - if she had to break up with that 12 year old artist, don't you think she's going to resist the impulse to give up the bootie to a guy who slaughtered a Bantu village? ...and on that score, aren't we all just filled with dread of the scene in the next installment when Amidala lay dying in dramatic fashion and Annakin gets a chance to flex his thespian chops for real? I mean, the chest-heaving nightmare scene fills me with forboding of what's to come. ...so THAT is why Anakin's voice morphs into James Earl Jones: he's ashamed of all the whining he did in his early years and will try to appear butch. And it's a sad statement that the only actor to totally kick out the jams was Yoda, an animated character. Ass kick he did. Anyway. All that is by way of saying I loved it. Can't wait to see it again. |

| Did he land frozen on someone's boat, Melissa? | ||||

| oh, yeah about that song. what do you call what he did with his voice. that was so amazing. | ||||

Interesting roots. The Scottish Fest? was NOT worth $15 and we missed the awards for the homebrew. (the main reason we were going) Brett won 2nd place for his mead. His mead is so very yummie. |

| The song is an english translation of a 19th century Russian poem, and the tune is an old traditional Swedish melody of great beauty, in my opinion. Elvis even recorded How Great Thou Art and titled an album that in 1966. And agreed: Gourd guy sang it just the way one oughta. | ||||
|
|
|
||||
| I had a wonderful time at The Gourds show. Rita, I want to know more about that voice thing the lead singer did during that very southern religious type song. He vibrated my insides with his vocals. | ||||

*L* The line to eat the gourds was way too long to be trifled with, Mel! Which Scottish filim did you see? Was it The Ratcatcher? Excellent film, that, with the ever-so-scrummy Tommy Flanagan. Meow. Last night I went to a club which featured a demonstration of Japanese Rope bondage. Nobody sent me the memo that only Goths would be in attendance, and I represented 90% of the floral garments in the room, and 25% of the non-black attire. There were several hundred people in attendance. Anyway, it was fun. |
||||
|
|
|
||||
| Also - did you eat the gourds? | ||||
|
|
|
||||
|
Yeah - let's hear about the Scottish festival. I recently watched a Scottish film with English subtitles. They sent a mouse to the moon. On a helium balloon. |

| I am so looking forward to the Gourds. Scarbourough Faire was very awsome in rain. This past which was the last weekend was a squelcher. (sp?) | ||||
|
|
|
||||
| No, they're decorative gourds. Actually they're a band from Austin, and Brett has played their hickoid version of "gin'n'juice" for us several times. Should be fun. | ||||

| As to Space Commander Lowe - I've no idea currently - he only writes every once in a blue moon. Last I heard though he was building a pond in his backyard. | ||||

|

| As to books - I started out just selling my own because I had too many and wanted to get rid of them. Once they started selling, however, I caught the bug and began to replenish the supply. | ||||

| Phlegm - I went to North Hampton again and visited their Bead Store - Beaders' Paradise, Inc - (413) 586-3885 Woo - if it's worth anything to you - didn't you say you were selling your beads to shops - they had a ton - anyhoo - there go. | ||||
