At least they’re not tacking on “Based on a true story” to the new TCM, which was my irritation with the last one. I’d like to see a flick that’s really based on the facts but compared to modern gorefests it’s actually pretty tame. I’m seeing Amy Madigan as dear old mum, and maybe Philip Hoffman as Ed.
Anybody thinking about checking out Dexter, the new Showtime show about the FBI agent by day/serial killer by night? It looks like the cheese factor might be high but it could be alright.
RAS, I think you’re overlooking the fact that for some ladies, porn can come in a purely textual format. Romance novels don’t sell for the plots, after all. I bet some of those girls in the lab could have been reading pure smut and you never would have known .

Sunday morning.
Hey, I saw an episode of “The Ant and The Aardvark” this morning with my four-year old. It got me thinking about John Byner (who did the voices and used to host that Canadian skit show “Bizarre”). So I Googled him to see if he’s still alive.
Sho’nuff, not dead. Turns out they just released a bunch of unedited episodes of “Bizarre” on DVD a few weeks ago. That show was wierd. If I remember, all the people were just trying to make each other mess up all the time.
I’m so gonna order it. Hope it’s as funny as I remember.

Now it officially feels like Halloween.

matt, the ghosts rock. in the 2nd picture of frankie, you gave him playmobil people hair. damn good stuff.
and how do you wait on line at a store to get an autograph?
You can use “on line” for “in line.” I’ve heard that convention used before.
As in, I remember waiting on line at 3am to register for classes before we FINALLY got online registration.

Wow, Matt was freaking right about Target kicking ass at Halloween. I bought the most bitchin’ witches hat EVER. It’s purple satiny stuff with a black veil that has spiders on it and lots of great feathers. It’s great. They also had the Pitch Black Icees, but having just eaten a large, grease filled dinner, the though of sugar made me a litle queasy. Next time.
K- don’t you know it’s supposed to be “queued up”?

That’s true about girls liking story porn almost as much/as much/more than visual porn. I hate HATE to see bad acting in a porn movie, and you have to look around a little to find something with good acting and attractive people *and* a story, if that’s what you like. The website Good Vibrations has some good stuff for women… I find I even like gay porn sometimes. Of course, my boyfriend finds that watching gay porn makes him want to kill himself.
More to the topic at hand- I entertained myself for hours today just looking at the Halloween stuff on the Target website. I love the costumes that are leeching off the popularity of TV show or movie characters, but they’re vague enough to get away with it. Although if you do a search there for “Wizard Wanda”, you’ll see one costume I find a little disturbing.
(Sorry if I’m double posting- I tried to use the link to that Target page and the blog didn’t like it.)

I can see some kid asking their mom if they can get a Wizard Wanda costume. The conversation why not would be interesting…

If I had a kid I wouldn’t let them be Wizard Wanda just because the tie doesn’t make sense. I hate ties-for-the-sake-of-ties. (And the almost-naked thing. It’s cold on Halloween!)

The worst part about that Wanda Wizard costume, is that if you look online it actually comes in plus sizes as well. I’d be horrified at the thought of anyone seeing my fat ass in that thing.

It reminds me of a stand-up comic (I think it was Jim Gaffigan) saying that women apparently want to dress like hookers on Halloween. I guess any costume idea can be turned into something kinda slutty.

Arthur: I’m British, I know how to queue.
Yes, I am aware of many British conventions
/proceeds to miss the very next British convention

I was looking at the frankenstein atari picture on the front page, the small one towards the right, if you look really uniquely then between his face and the finger, the orangish part, looks like a drippy slice of pizza, if anyone is bored they should go look.
I insisted on using British spellings for a while, that was an interesting time.
What terrifies me (speaking from the fat-girl perspective…) is the plus-sized girl that would wear the Wanda Wizard costume and think they look good.
And, WOW, it does look like pizza, Goob. That’s one of the best pictures for looking-like-something-it-isn’t I’ve seen in a while.

I always spell it poseur. because well you know. The sun never sets on my @$$hole, etc., etc.

That’s the best! It reminds me of the Roseanne episode where David asked Darlene if it’s going to be him or the other guy. Darlene said the other guy, and after a pause David said, yeah or me, now choose. Ghostie should have pulled one of those.
