On the politics board, SEF has indicated that it is a Penske sock (or, as SEF is quick to point out, a sock for a Penske sock).

Aren't we all Penke's socks?

JFF is not PG.
TS is SEF

And I cannot wait to see how this JFF hoax ends.

Whats the policy here? Who can see socks? Leagl and Slave only? Are you free to just bust socks? Are you gonna bust my sock?

Slave was actually guessing. We don't bust socks, he should have said he was guessing is all.

For those of you unfamiliar with the story, Janine left Miles sometime before the book begins. She declared one day that he could never satisfy her sexually, and she goes off to find her sexual peak. She becomes a work out fiend, spending hours upon hours in the gym in order to make herself sexually desirable. She flaunts her new perfect body whenever possible, and she manages to hook up with the older, but not too much older, guy who owns the gym, a man who also seems to be fairly body obsessed. Her entire mind set is focused on two things, her body, and how her body can lead her to good sex. She and her new beau are easily the most irritating characters in the book.

I dont' know why she suddenly came to mind.

SPOILERS BELOW






RT, I like the way you think. (For anybody who doesn't want to know how the book ends, stop reading)

It turns out Janine's new beau is in hock up to his hairy old ears. She leaves him and gets fat again, but not without realizing that her body/sex focus did not fill the gaping void in her soul.


Edited by Leagl to make the spoiler warning more obvious

1) I'm not busting anyone's sock. Like the days of yore - I'm doing nothing more than taking an educated guess based on posting style.

2) If I actually knew whose sock was whose - I sure as hell wouldn't post it publicly. Hell, then I'd be in violation of our own TOS and I'd have to delete myself.

3) Lay of the bolivian sweetie - it makes you paranoid.

The policy is that no mods can see IP addresses or other identifying information..

So, sock away.

And not only that, but the way the board logs IP addresses makes it exceedingly difficult to cross-reference them with other users, so even if an admin wanted to track down people's socks, it wouldn't be a real easy process. It can be done, but it's not really worth it just to figure out socks. If it's a security/outing/stalking/TOS violation issue, then it's a different story.

Yes--recently watched it, actually. Just didn't make the connection. I guess I should have turned my speakers up to eleven.

Actually, it was a dog named Snuggles.

"Now we're up to our long distance dedication, and this one is about kids and pets, and a situation we can all understand, whether we have kids or pets or neither. It comes from a man in Cincinnati, Ohio, and here's what he writes.

"'Dear Casey, This may seem to be a strange dedication request, but I am quite sincere and it will mean a lot if you play it. Recently there was a death in our family. He was a little dog named Snuggles, but he was most certainly a part of . . .'"

"Let's go . . . start again. Coming out of the record, play the record, okay? Please . . . ."

"That's the letter U and the numeral 2. The four-man band features Adam Clayton on bass, Larry Mullin on drums, Dave Evans, nicknamed The Edge on . . . this is bullshit! Nobody cares! These guys are from England, and who gives a shit! It's a lot of wasted names that don't mean diddly shit!"

"Emmm . . . too many . . . Come out of those goddamn up-tempo numbers, man, it's impossible to make those transitions. Then you gotta go into somebody dying! Goddamn it if we can't come out of slow records. I don't understand it, why aren't we doing these instrumentals, too? Do we got 'em? Will somebody find the goddamn answer? Okay? I want a goddamn concerted effort to come out of a record, that isn't a . . . a fucking up-tempo record, every time I do a goddamn . . . DEATH dedication! This is the last goddamn time. I want somebody to use his fucking brain to not come out of a goddamn record that is a . . . up-tempo, and I gotta talk about a fucking dog dying! What is this... this is fucking ponderous, man..."

"This is American Top 40, right here on the radio you grew up with, Music Radio 138... Oh Fuck!"

After the copyright battle with U2 forcing them to pull "U2" off the shelves, Negativland subsequently released fuck-you albums entitled "The Letter U and the Numeral 2" and "These Guys Are from England and Who Gives a Shit." I have my cassette of "U2" --- wish I'd thought to get it on CD before it got banned --- and it does my heart good to hear it. It's still not as funny as the stuff they did on KPFA, but it takes me back to bright college days.

your other input is duly noted.

Actually, Paigow, I thought that "you can't handle my heat" was a Birdcage reference. Picturing Hank Azaria in those shorts and imagining his over the top Guatemalan accent is good for a laugh. You're a born entertainer, I tell you.

How much more black could this be? and the answer is: None. None...more black.
