Acid brand. Most people find them too sweet, but I have a MASSIVE sweet tooth, so they do me fine.

BBMs?

I guess you could say this... I'm only really into masculinized older guys like Colton Ford (although, he's over the top like all these other porno and Castro Street guys.) Guys who have like... guy jobs, got grit under their finger nails, but still take care of how they look-- my turn ons. I guess sort Heath Ledger-ish...

Well I finished my philosophy term paper finally.

And with 11 and a half hours to spare!

For several months now I seemed to be stalked by a troll, what happen is that on amiright.com many of my recent song parody lyrics are being down-voted anonymously as that dude never bother to leave a comment. Not only that, he seemed to be one of those who would clean out the cookies to do so repeatedly, I may have ticked someone off enough to make him do so. Overall the reviews are the ones that carrys more weight when it comes to that since it shows every voting systems are flawed.

Well done sir. I still have about 12 days to write my history paper, where I have to compare Machiavelli's The Prince to Plato's Republic. So far I've read them and written a bit of an outline.

BTW, if you guys are into good movies with that classic Jim Henson/Dark Crystal feel to them, you should sell your left kidney to see

MIRROR MASK

Possibly THE greatest fantasy/tripped out dreamworld/kid's movie EVER.

I can't possibly describe to you how awesome this film is... soundtrack by some of the greatest jazz musicians in Europe, I believe Neil Gaiman worked on the script... all the old Jim Henson effects guys who are still alive worked on it...

Seriously, the second you stop reading this post, look it up and buy it. Don't rent it; you'll want to own it.

Only reason why I listened to Guns and Roses was for Slash.

I won't argue with you on that; Slash is a hell of a guitar player. But where Slash left of his own accord, Buckethead was fired due to his "transient lifestyle, inconsistent and unreliable behavior."

Let that sink in for a few minutes.

Buckethead isn't really made to be in a band. Like sure, he's a really good guitar player, but he's also a crazy motherfucker.

Anyway, Chinese Democracy was pretty much just Axel Rose trying to be a serious musician, yeah.

You know, like BBW's.

I always thought that the gritty man's man gay fetish was the whole bear movement

Funk I love you in the most homosexual kind of way!

you'll be excited to know that one of Neil Gaiman's creepy childrens books is being made into a puppet animation (sort of like mirrormask)

look it up:

Coraline.

I don't know when it's coming out, but he's been talking about it in his blog.

and if anyone wants a damn good holiday movie (funk, you'll love this one, it spits in the face of christmas) check out Hogfather. It's an adaptation of one of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels.

and for $10 it's totally worth it (I had gotten it a bit early last year by buying it from England...so now one of my computers is on region 2 and the other is on region 1)

Despite my affinity for redheads and japanese AV idols, I'm not ashamed to say that I was struck by how handsome Colton Ford was the first time I saw him. I'd trade my left testicle -- nay, my entire left leg -- to look like that guy.

Because then I could cosplay as Solid Snake from MGS and really flip people out.... I've already got a ka-bar and the "sneaking walk" from snake eater down pat.

And the weird thing is, I was looking for an artist someone recommended to me at work when I found out about Colton Ford; Colt Ford, country rapper.

To each his own. :-)

Though I will say this; the only way people would see me in a leaf outfit would be if I put in on one of my City of Heroes characters. Which brings me to my next question; how in the FUCK do they get away with some of the stuff they do in that game, costume wise? There's a complete "leaf" costume in there that could easily pass for any one of Poison Ivy's outfits, there's a facial hair option in the game that looks exactly like Wolverine's spiked out mutton chops, and if you fiddle with it long enough you can make an Iron Man outfit or Captain America suit. WTF?!

The same could be said of Axel Rose, which is why I'm sitting here scratching my head going... "pot calling the kettle black, much?"

Anyway, Chinese Democracy was pretty much just Axel Rose trying to be a serious musician, yeah.

A few months ago there was an in-depth interview in Guitar World with one of the former producers for Chinese Democracy, and some of the stuff that he described as to why the production was taking so long and was so costly pretty much blew me away. A few of the things he discussed were things like;

- Any time a new member would join the band or a new band was formed, he'd have them re-record Appetite for Destruction as an initiation process. (There was a full band mix of "Welcome to the Jungle" with Buckethead on lead guitar that was to be used in the movie Blackhawk Down, but Rose threw a trademark bitch-fit at the last minute).

- Any time a bandmember left, the new bandmember would have to re-record that person's part the way that person played it so that the musician in question would impart his "energy" into the mix. Buckethead caught a LOT of shit from Axel because he liked to watch hardcore porno while improvising guitar solos for the album... from the comfort of his own chicken coop in the recording studio....

- The pro-tools experts and recording engineers hired on to record and mix the album worked a 9-to-5 workday every week regardless of whether or not Rose was there to record.

- Gear rental. At one point in time they had an original '59 Gibson Les Paul sitting in the corner for MONTHS racking up thousands of dollars in rental fees that they might have used for one track shortly after getting it in.

Sucka, I saw that movie. Yeah.

Also, any movie by Terry Gilliam= MUST WATCH. Ie, "Tideland" YES.

YESSSSSSS.

A little girl raised by heroine addicts, forced to survive in the middle of nowhere with only a retard for company as her O'Ded father moulders in his dead mother's empty house....

I'm not saying it's the best movie ever... because that's kind of redundant. I mean, DUH, TERRY GILLIAM, DUH!!!

sweet. I'm a fan of Discworld and Terry Pratchett. (probably seen that club I have in C&C about it)

There's a new one out along the lines of hogfather. They did the first two books of the series in a 2 hour TV type thing.

it's called Colour of Magic. It's not out in the US yet, but it was on BBC in brit-land and is out on DVD there now, so you can expect it to pop up in the US in a few months.

I hope they do some films about the watch characters. Sam Vimes is such a well written character.

ugh. I want to rape God for creating the gene for Alzheimer's disease

ya Vimes is my favorite discworld character (aside from vetinari obviously), but I think the witches would translate well to film just because of all the fun you can have with visual allusion and the like.

I still have nightmares from what they did to Wyrd Sisters....

I know have often joked about things that would make me climb a clocktower with a high-powered rifle and start sniping random civilians, but those things have absolutely NOTHING on the product I just read about in my inbox.

Behold insanity itself; the 7x7 Super Rubick's Cube

When I was reading "making money" I could almost HEAR Pratchett's cheese slipping off his cracker. Poor guy; he peaked out with Vimes, and while the banker dude whatzisface is a good concept character, mentally, Pratchett is no longer capable of executing enough to do him justice.

Also, if you notice, Pratchett's been releasing almost "best of" books these days, where he doesn't do new content so much as he takes the best tidbits out of old books and gives them a glossy rewrite when those characters/places/concepts appear in new books.

He's clearly losing it.

Somewhere there are photos of our friend Shipley wearing it the following night. He, of course, is a natural redhead. And if you thought it left nothing to the imagination on me...

ow, random pain, bad.

well he wasn't even diagnosed until this past year with early onset Alzheimer's. His cognitive abilities aren't impaired yet..but I agree that the Lipwig books (Going Postal, Making Money) aren't that great and his book-writing has slowed down a bit.

But I can't say he's doing "best ofs" because he has a new young-adult novel out that isn't even discworld related.

it's called Nation and it's about a human child from EARTH living on an island that is devastated by a wave or a storm and he's left alone with a small group of people and some other kid his age. I thumbed through it last time I was at the mall and it wasn't bringing back other characters...kind of hard to.

I want to get my hands onto the Science of Discworld novels, but I never have the money to order them online.

Just yesterday I saw a commercial for a medicene that slows down alsiemers but, and I swear this isn't a joke, I cannot remember the name. It was one of those generic sounding drug names. The commercial featured a woman getting lost from her bowling team. That was good in that it didn't depict every person in that age group as affected.

IRONY! HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

sorry, but that made my day.

Another story in the works.

Also, I swear if I hear another Christmas song I'm going to strangle the closest person next to me.

Watch out.

City sidewalks,
busy sidewalks,
dressed in holiday style,

In the air there's a feeling.....of Christmas.....

**Sees Brian, freezes like a deer in headlights**

**recovers, and BOLTS outta here!**

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

I made the mistake (this time last year) of suggesting my brother play a track by Trans Siberian Orchestra over his stereo system, because he had never heard them play. The track; Christmas Eve in Sarajevo 12/24, they're version of "Carol of the Bells."

I did not know that they had been playing that EXACT tune as part of an artificial Christmas Tree display at his work incessantly.

Yeah, I got cussed.

I'm going to strangle my co-worker who turned me on to City of Heroes the next time I see him. He kept sending me "whispers" from his channel to mine that only I could hear, and he was blaring clips of the Family Guy "Surfin' Bird" episode right into my headphones.

Strangle, with much enthusiam and prejudice.

You're the only one who heard it? Because I was under the impression that everybody's heard about the bird.

Just call me Bootsie. That's right, Bootsie Mcgee, on account of these boots.

Finally got my gears 2 for my 360, gonna go play for a few dozen hours now.
