I should be dead already!

Posted in Observations on January 31st, 2006 by sherlock

I heard on the radio this morning that a new study says that men that have sex 2 or more times a week reduce their chance of a heart attack by 50%. Great, as if women need yet another reason not to have sex with us!

Rant

Posted in Time 2 Piss People Off on January 30th, 2006 by sherlock

Rachel wanted me to rant about something but never told me what it was so here is my rant about it…

… crickets chirping …

And that’s how I feel about that!!!

Happy birthday cousin-in-law J’lynn.

Oh sure, I asked Rachel for an embarrassing photo to post and she said she didn’t have one. Then she post one… And I didn’t have internet to post earlier so now I look bad!

Happy 25th, J’Lynn

Waters it matter?

Posted in Movies on January 29th, 2006 by sherlock

On Thursday, we met with John Waters at his home and interviewed him for the documentary on HG Lewis who he’s a big fan of. He’s a really nice guy and we talked with him for a few hours. He wanted to take us to a punk club, but he is an ordained minister and was going to perform a wedding that night. He offered to go on Friday, but unfortunately we couldn’t stay that long. I got a photo taken with him and he was kind enough to sign his book Shockvalue and movie Cecil B. DeMented for me. The interview with him was also great, I don’t know how we’ll cut it down to fit the documentary. With that said, all the footage for the documentary is in the can and the editting has started. Hopefully it will be ready in a few months. I’ll keep you posted.

I’ll call it, mini mac!

Well actually its name is Davinci, and it will be the new web server. I think it should be up in a few days, thanks to Duane for the help setting it up. We still have one problem to work out and we’ll switch over to it. It should eliminate the fucking pop ups on pereiraville too, and speaking of which… Paybacks are a bitch!

Flowers in the attic

Posted in House of horrors on January 29th, 2006 by sherlock

Man am I tired. I spent most of the day in the attic putting down plywood so we could have more storage room. I have about half of it done and we managed to put all the Christmas and Halloween decorations and still have a lot of room for more. When I finish the other half we’ll have a huge storage area up there.

Back in the Blog

Posted in Movies on January 27th, 2006 by sherlock

Well I’m back from Baltimore and my visit with John Waters

Jimmy, John, Bill and Me

They’ve stopped for the night

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 26th, 2006 by writersblock

somewhere in North Carolina. YAY! I get to see my husband tomorrow!

Where’s Jim – 440p edition

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 26th, 2006 by writersblock

YAY! Jim is on his way back home to me! They’re currently navigating around DC and will drive until they stop for the night. YAY! I get to see my Jim in 18 or less hours.

Where’s Jim – 842a edition

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 26th, 2006 by writersblock

Jim and Bill arrived at the hotel in Baltimore sometime after midnight. JM’s flight gets in around 10, and then the three will prepare to head over to John Water’s house. Cool!

Jim sounded groggy. I miss him so much.

Where’s Jim — the 1024p edition

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 25th, 2006 by writersblock

Jim and Bill are almost in Washington DC. They got lost somehow in Richmond, otherwise they’d probably be in Baltimore already. Driving is a bitch (especially when your co-driver is a chain smoker and you are not. Jim’s poor lungs and eyeballs).

They interview John Waters tomorrow around 1p.

Menwhile, I’m all alone. All by myself. There is no one here beside me… I’m all alone no one to comfort or to guide me. (Have you listened to the soundtrack to Spamalot yet? It’s so entertaining!) I sat in the bath tub for an hour, and watched Office Space, and surfed… all by myself.

There’ll be music, sweet music

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 25th, 2006 by writersblock

At least while my wonderful loving husband is out of town I can be comforted by listening to the outstanding Halloween CD he created. You know, since the music part of it was, in fact, ready for our Halloween party, even though the art portion was not ready at that time.

Yes, I think I will listen to that in the car on the way home. Because I can. Because I get one whether or not I placate him with a plethora of comments.

And because it irritates the hell out of me that you greedy commenters will comment on every single one of his posts and hardly ever over on my blog. Even though I blog far more often than he does.

I see where your motivation lies.

Where’s Jim?

Posted in wRitErsbLock's wRants on January 25th, 2006 by writersblock

Jim is somewhere in South Carolina right now, on his way to Baltimore.

Jim’s wife is lonely and abandoned in Orlando.

Jim is such a meanie.

As it stands, there will not be an extended trip and no stop off in Alabama. Of course, that’s subject to change at the whim of JM.

Baltimore

Posted in Stuff on January 25th, 2006 by sherlock

Well I’m off to Baltimore for a few days. I probably won’t be able to blog until I get back, hopefully on Friday.

WTF? no comments in several days, maybe I should delay the CD even more!

Brokeback Oscar

Posted in Movies, Observations on January 24th, 2006 by sherlock

I predict that Brokeback Mountain will win the Oscar this year, not because it’s good (I haven’t seen it) but because hollywood wants to be ‘progressive’. Would any straight man want to see this movie? It looks like a chick-flick with gay men and I hate chick-flicks and most of my friends don’t like them either. Most only go if they are dragged there, mostly for the hope of getting laid. I don’t really care if it’s about a man and a women or two men or two women (well, two women, OK!) love stories are not the least bit interesting to me. This is not because the movie is about homosexuals, I just don’t think I am willing to see a love story, I doubt I would rent it, and I would only watch it on TV if nothing else was on. I am curious if a gay male would see the movie, but I would guess that it depends if they like love stories or not.

It’s the only way to be sure

So Iran wants Nukes? Well I for one think we should give them nukes, send them Tomahawk express, when it possitively has to be there overnight.
