A bad case of loving you
 

You are talking to the wrong docs. All the antibiotics handed over by my doctor friend come with the assertation that it is okay to drink while taking them. I don't take antibiotics often because I think they should only be taken when needed, but I've had a sinus infection or two that would not have gone away but for the meds.

Fugee opened the door for a wonderful co-ed dorm shower story and you ruined it. Ruined it!

Matrix Revolutions
 

I'm going to see it tonight on an Imax screen with a bunch of techno-geeky-sci-fi* freaks. Should be an interesting evening, especially if we go for drinks afterwards. I'll be the one drinking beer and playing circular logic games while they earnestly discourse on the deeper meanings of the film while stirring their black coffee. I'm giddy in anticipation.:rolleyes:

Just saw Matrix 2 last night. There were some very funny bits (1 Adam-12), but the fight scenes were too long. Cool special effects, but I wanted the story to move along. Neo is getting annoying and what's up with Morpheus and his purple pimp suit?


*Over use of hyphens?

Matrix Revolutions
 

Hugo Weaving has a pretty good agent (no pun intended) to get him prominent roles in both the Matrix and LOTR trilogies. I had barely heard of him before, but he owns his roles in both and will probably be able to parlay them into choice character roles in the future (strikes me as a Bill Macy type role player, only tougher)...

Having just seen Reloaded for the first time on DVD, I'm still trying to figure the "rave scene" out as well... What the fuck was that?

Morpheus: "Hey guys, I got some bad news... There's a quarter of a million sentinels coming to kill us all, and they'll be here pretty soon. Now, we can either start getting ready to defend the existence of the human race, or we can party our asses off! I say we party!"

Huh?

I would have gladly lived and showered in the men's dorm.

The good thing about my "phobia" is that it keeps me from doing (or at least getting caught doing) things bad enough to land me in jail/prison. Now, if they said I could go to a men's prison instead of living with the "ladies behind bars" I would not be so scared and would probably be in jail like that <snap>.

First Mtv and then The World!
 

Looks like Jessica fans have something to look forward to...

Jessica Simpson has "signed a secret deal with ABC to star in her own sitcom," Page Six reports. That's separate from the second season of Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, which is now taping. Jessica's also apparently being considered for the lead in an I Dream of Jeannie film. Page Six says that "with the TV shows, the movie and planned lines of clothing, perfume and makeup, Simpson should be reeling in close to $20 million this year." [realityblurred]


Which phase of the lizard's plan is this?

Um, in men's prison they seem to enjoy something that you want no part of. Something to consider.

Drinking
 

And WTF is up with this talk of "elevated liver enzymes"?

This is why I hate going to the doctor -- they always bring up shit that I then go around worrying about which increases my stress level which in turn probably fucks up my health.

I am secure in my drinking and then you people bring up this liver enzyme crap and now I have to worry about it. If you don't say it or write it where I can see it then it can't possibly get me. Shut up already. Next thing I know you will say the fucking "C" word and -bam- I get a tumor. Stop It!

He certainly has range. Have you seen him in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert?

The music at the rave was pretty good. Maybe they were partying like it was 1999.

But they prefer that because there is no option. I present the option. Anyway, I would rather take it in the ass from some dude than be naked in a shower with other women.

I hope this is not too morbid for a Friday.
 

I actually have it in my will. Music must include Green Day's "Good Riddance" and Warren Zevon's last dic in its entirety. The only reason I have giveen Mrs. Wonk my gumbo recipe is so that she will be able to prepare a big ole pot for the funeral.

Children's laughter will, in fact, be encouraged.

Drinking
 

The enzyme test is a fucking unecessary insurance company pushed test to determine who's a high risk person. Some actuarial sitting ina cubicle made the determination that alcohol consumption is a good indicator of other high risk behaviors. They use impossible behavior baselines. Then the AMA puts out these ridiculous baselines like "If you have more than 15 drinks a week, you're in grave health danger." Ridiculous. Its amazing people live to be 80 these days, considering that these wonderful baselines did not exist when these old folks started swilling booze and smokin butts in the 50s. Hell, you couldn't eat eggs for a while because of some shit some asshole scientist said.

We get too much nancy-boy the-sky-is-falling infor about our health these days, and most of its contradictory and fucked up by the press. Life's terminal. Enjoy what you want within reason and take care of yourself as best you can and you'll live as long as your genes permit. Quality, not quantity. I don't want to see 80 because I know I'll be arthritic - its in my genes. Pass me the fucking bourbon.

Okay, deal! PM me with your contact information.

I hope this is not too morbid for a Friday.
 

That seems like a good approach. As with weddings, there is the whole "Is this thing for me or is it for others (family, etc.)" dilemma. But, there are so many ways to do it without having it to be a completely somber affair - although if that is what you want, I suppose that works too. I have been meaning to do a little internet research on funereal traditions of different cultures.

I hope this is not too morbid for a Friday.
 

While I haven't planned my funeral, my best friend did prior to her death from cancer. She left explicit instructions. SHe wanted her obituary to read that she had died from cancer, because she didn't want anyone to think that after 4 years of chemo she had been hit by a bus. She threatened to come back and haunt us all if Amazing Grace was played, especially on bagpipes. And she said, "you know how they always say 'in lieu of flowers"? Fuck that. I want flowers. loads and loads of flowers."

In retrospect, having her let us know these things made it easier for us to handle the details of her funeral. Also, having her voice in our heads telling us what to do was reassuring.

man, this subject sucks. can we talk about something more fun now?
