This tour is Springsteen without the E-Street Band, probably playing for 2.5 hours.
If it had been Houston, I would have taken you up on it.

So now you are doing courtesy ticket buying for the patchpeople? That is very kind of you. Could you please buy me tickets for the upcoming Crowes shows? I will reimburse you face value(do i have to give you the service charges also?) Thanks!

Indeed. But, as the Defamer tells us, Sin City is less sinful than it could be.


  • Jessica Alba continues to torture us through prudish headlines, but far more disturbing is the larger trend of actresses portraying exotic dancers while eschewing the nudity required for stripper-verisimilitude. Sure, we put up with Natalie Portman’s coy refusal to show even a single nipple in Closer, but she’s a “serious actress.” Seemingly every other female in Sin City either paraded around topless or in revealing bondage gear, so why must she buck the system and lose the career points? This was her freebie, where she could’ve said “it made sense for the role” with a straight face.

    Jesus, we need a vacation. We’re starting to sound like an agent.

Let me know if you get them the Orpheum in Boston. We tried but they sold out in seconds.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm Houston, not Dallas, and I'm not much of a Springsteen fan.

This is an email my brother forwarded me. You might remember he owns and runs schools and summer camps for young fats. Some mother wanted to reserve a place in one of his summer camps for her young fat offspring, and sent some goofy promissory note. My brother wrote back saying that he would need a credit card or check to hold the spot. Here's the reply he got.

Dear [str8's brother]
What makes you think that the instrument I sent you is a promissory note? - particularly when I told you specifically that it is a transfer instrument - a pre-authorized transfer instrument by which the Secretary of the Treasury will 'transfer' credit from my Treasury Direct Account to your bank account.

Why did you consult with your lawyer? - particularly when I instructed you to consult with your Chief Financial Officer because only he would understand not only the instrument but also how it is lawfully processed.

Why are you telling me that I am required to pay you with a check or credit card after I sent you enough to cover both cost and processing fee? - particularly when I told you that your non-acceptance of my instrument meant, under commercial law, that you cannot discriminate against specie and hence the bill is paid upon your refusal (see UCC3-603, with which your lawyer ought to be familiar). The only manner in which the instrument would be deemed invalid is if it is dishonoured by the Treasury. I have a private contract with John Snow whereby he has agreed to honour such instruments. None of you, your lawyer, or your fiduciary is a party to said contract; ergo, none of you can interfere in my commercial affairs. Why did you involve anyone who knows not how an instrument such as this is handled? It seems your lawyer has given you bad counsel. In my eight years of contract law I have noticed that lawyers inevitably shirk responsibility and leave the agents (you) to face the
consequences.

I gave you accurate, detailed instructions and yet you chose to ignore them and do otherwise. You can not complain that the process didn't work nor can you complain that the instrument is invalid. Be advised, your refusal to follow instructions has been deemed a dishonour which I am now bound to report to the proper authorities.

Yours truly,
[Mom of a fat]

I feel sorry for her kid. Being a fattie is the least of his worries.

Maybe she was worried that NFH's husband wouldn't be allowed to see the movie.

HEY. As long as she's not rubbing her boobs in his face, it's OK. Or sucking his cack.
