It's just you. I like this season better so far.

I saw the christian rock band episode yesterday and could not stop laughing. when Token started to play bass and realized he acutally could riff and said "goddamn it" under his breath... the christian song lyrics that all had sexual references in them ("are you saying that you are not IN LOVE with Jesus?")... the evidence that downloading harms rock stars because Lars Ulrich can't afford his gold shark-tank bar for a few more months...

good times.

I watched "The Hours" this weekend and was again surprised to find that I liked it. I didn't even think Nicole Kidman was a real actress til I saw this.

One question. Does anyone remember the line she (Virginia Woolf) said to her niece? I googled it but couldn't find it.

Something like...

I was thinking of killing my heroine,
but decided not to.
Now I think I'll have to kill someone else.


Yeah, maybe it wasn't that memorable for anyone else, but I suddenly felt great affinity for the character.

Did I miss this conversation last year?

Plus, nothing is worse than having your bike stolen. I'd rather have them take my car.

(They sawed(??) through the bike rack)

I loved that episode. The look of horror on Token's face was priceless.

Hello
I liked it too -- very much. The scene that gave me great affinity for the VW character was when she was giving instructions to the servants about going into London to get something or other (was it ginger?). "Do I miscalculate?" Fantastic.

I remember the conversation about killing the heroine, but I can't remember the exact phrasing.

I've always liked Nicole Kidman, but it's not like she's been in that many roles where you could really see her acting talents -- but I thought she was fabulous in "The Others" as well. I will confess that I could not understand the hoopla over "La Boheme" (that's not what it was called, was it?). It was ok -- but I didn't get whatever was behind the abundance of praise for her performance -- not that it was bad, just not worthy of all that gushing.

King of the Hill last night was about Bobby getting involved with a Christian skate punk youth group. Made saying grace seem so much more appealing--"props to J!" Of course spoilsport Dad nixed getting the tattoo of sk8tr boi Jesus holding his board...

I saw that one, and I have to go on record that I just don't find KotH funny. And I live in TX, so I should get it I think. I watched last night b/c I know that e/o likes it, so I figured I'd give it another shot. Sigh.

dtb, you were thinking of Moulin Rouge... I never thought her performance was amazing in it, I thought the movie as a whole got raves b/c of its unusual style. Spectacular, spectacular.

The real Bilmore Baggins

wherever he is. I just saw this picture of this guy from one of my alltime favorite bands, and he looks EXACTLY like how I picture Bilmoe since I learned he was a kayaking seventies rocker and thus not Benny hill. He even has the little gray macaroni mustached I am certain Bilmore sports.

On the basis of this alone, I almost heart you right now. Please tell me that you have really high hair, a pair of cowboy boots and a low-cut rhinestone shirt and that you are wearing them right now--commando, of course.

Two weekends ago, while taking out the trash, I found treasure amidst the bloodstained Montecores leftover from Halloween. On the very top of the dumpster, in pristine condition, was an inflatable woman.

She was not the sort that could be used and/or abused for sexual gratification (no openings). She is short and stumpy, with the palest of pink skin and yellow hair matches her yellow bikini. She reminds me of Tina Yothers.

Now, I'm not normally one for dumpster diving, but when I see anything inflatable, I immediately think "pool toy." So I rescued Tina from the dumpster and set her adrift in the pool. An associate, concerned that some the resident retirees may mistake Tina for a drowned child, removed her from the pool and left her reclining on a deck chair.

The conscientious maintenance staff allowed Tina to remain on the chair, her toes and tas pointed directly skyward. Then on Friday, perhaps by wind, perhaps her own volition, Tina found her way back into the pool. Tina's uplifting plasticine presence has been acknowledged by many residents. The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, except for one resident who lamented the lack of a hole. I just smile knowlingly in response to this unsolicited praise.

Anyway, she's still floating in the pool if you want her.

That's what all of us TX chicks wear every single day, along with quite a bit of makeup. High hair, makeup, cowboy boots, and a low-cut rhinestone shirt and that is all.

Um, no. I have a feeling that if any of that was true, I'd find KotH funny.
