Knocked Up, But Still Laminated

Gattigap Heart-O-Meter (standard setting = 50):

* Heidi Klum is pregnant.

Gattigap H-O-M Down, 37 points. Aieee! Even after my offers and emailed photographs, she didn't call!

*"Klum, who has appeared in Sports Illustrated magazine's swimsuit issue, separated last November from her husband of five years, celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino."

Gattigap H-O-M Up, 7 points. (1) Loser husband out of the way!, but (2) "Celebrity Hairstylist?" Must rethink assessment of Heidi's judgment.


*Baby will be with Flavio Briatore, managing director of Renault's Formula One team. "Klum, 30, and Briatore, 53, have been together for about a year."

Gattigap H-O-M Up, 10 points. (1) Still Not married! Woo hoo! There's still hope! (2) Fifty Three? Blech.

(OTOH, I think I can take him.)

Net Reading: -20 points. A poor day, but nothing a good single malt can't fix.

Judas Maccabee ordered that Temple sacrifices be offered for all slain Jewish soldiers who had worn pagan amulets as good luck tokens. 2 Maccabees 12:38-46. In other words, the living must pray for the relief and repose of the souls of sinful dead. Thus, it is one of the few Biblical justifications for the existence of Purgatory. See also 2 Timothy 1:18 (Paul prays for dead Onesiphorus). However, because the Maccabees books were written in Greek and were not included in the Hebrew-only scripture canon by the Jews at the Council of Jamnia, Martin Luther excluded them from the Protestant scripture, thus explaining why Catholics believe in Purgatory and Protestants do not.

The Maccabees story is also the origin of the phrase, via Coverdale's 1535 translation, of "left wing [lefte wynge]" (1 Maccabees 9:16) to describe political factions, but this was discussed in another of my plagiarized posts.

*Jewess, please.

This clears things up. Those Hindus can't wait to say "namaste" every chance they get because they're inner goodness is toe-to-the-sky wasted and they think it'll get 'em another bottle of the single malt hooch.

The really, really drunk Hindus in kilts say namaste as they leave.

They just don't know any better at that stage, I guess.

Since y'all are talking about the subject, this article in Slate talks about why twenty-year-old video games can be more fun than a lot of contemporary ones. I wouldn't know -- I don't play them, for roughly the same reasons I don't smoke crack.

Nope. You missed the point. She never had the game. It was her desire for the game, and her subsequent, admittedly mediocre "haunting," because she didn't get the game, that says a lot about her.

Think young Ralphie and the Red Ryder BB Gun. The gun itself wasn't so important. It was his idea of and craving for the gun that said a lot about him.

If you know the story (and who doesn't), when he actually got the gun, things weren't all they were cracked up to be. You know, all that glitters isn't gold, and all that. . .

Except his glasses.

This movie was accidentally omitted from my list of favorite Xmas things. Along with The Matrix and A Bridge Too Far -- not conventionally thought of as Xmas movies, but they made a strong play for contention in that category last year. My wife, on the other hand, puts A Bridge Too Far in her category of least favorite Xmas things.

Not just plaid pants - plaid BONDAGE pants. Brava. I now have bondage fantasies to accompany the maple syrup ones.

No.

All time greats necessarily include a lengthy monologue from Kramer. Like Pinkie Toe and Joe Pepitone.

And one of my top 5 is the one with Bookman, the library cop. Funniest non-core character on the show (besides, maybe Jackie Chiles).

How about the third show of the fourth season? That was great! Heh.
