Outtakes from Casey Casum. There's a rather famous one of his losing it when someone sent in a long distance dedication about their dead dog.

The interenet is a wonderful thing, because it allowed all of us to hear Casey Casum to go off about the dedication.

Edited to add a link to the dedication

The real key is to find a way to sit around on the couch endlessly without ultimately requiring coronary artery bypass grafting.
That one's easy. They're doing amazing things with angioplasty and stenting these days.

Silence of the Lambs, hence the pic of Buffalo Bill.

I think LTL was nodding assent to TM's misquote of a famous line from Silence of the Lambs - but I could be mistaken.

Thanks. Totally missed it. Other than the fava beans bit, the line I remember best from that movie is when he digs at Clarice: "with your good purse and your cheap shoes . . ."

(I almost wrote "the most memorable line." Thank heavens I stopped myself.)

This morning I saw a bumper sticker "I [heart] mullets"

The odd thing was, the car (actually an SUV, big surprise there) didn't have TX license plates, it had CA plates.

On a largely unrelated note, why is it that people who buy tacky ugly cars get them in colors like bright yellow?

Maybe the ugly-colored cars are cheaper.


Ahhhh, the little people, how they do amuse....

H2s are pretty expensive. Yet tacky and ugly. I think those little midget runt cars are not so expensive, but also are tacky and ugly (and seem to come in bright yellow not infrequently).

Are you saying you don't find my mullet attractive?

H2s piss me off. I feel the moral indignation rise in my throat when I see asshole yuppies driving them in my close-in neighborhood. And when I see the temp. tags on them I think I'm just going to lose it. To buy one of those fucking monsters at any time is appalling, but at this particular point is just the ultimate in selfish individualistic I don't give a shit-ism. I think people who need to signal their status with their cars are pathetic.

Of course, I wouldn't be caught dead driving a Ford Taurus, but that's a matter of style, not of status. I simply appreciate the finer engineering, handling, and styling of more expensive vehicles from the motherland.

You should win some kind of prize for posting that in four minutes. (Either that, or your TM's sock, which I doubt very much.) What kind of prize, I'm not sure.
