monkey eating

Someone sent me that cartoon years ago and I stumbled upon it while looking at an old site of mine tonight. That's how I feel sometimes, which is why I like it. It's the second monkey eating related thing I've been sent. So I guess others feel the same.

A restaurant chain under the "Girls Gone Wild" brand name is being planned by Joe Francis, whose Mantra Films Inc.'s has built a $100 million business videotaping and selling the DVDs featuring young women exposing their breasts.

Role playing keeps a relationship fresh

"Thank you for being a tender lover...What? Why are you pushing me away?" Look deep into her eyes, stroke her hair. "I love your spirit...What? Ow, stop hitting." Then start singing "Michael row your boat ashore" because that's what someone who says things like that might sing. Actually this all seems to upset her. Will try "Grouchy Canadian Immigration Official Who Suspects You Of Smuggling Fruit" next.

QotD: Call The Fashion Police

You must have been a fashion victim at least once in your life. What hideous blunder did you commit?
Submitted by Tina.

I am currently wearing a bathrobe, with thermal long johns for pants, and a hoodie over my bathrobe (the robe is thin). With the hood up. I look good and will not let the fashion police into my domicle.

I just need to work in Michael Jordan and the Cloud Gate sculpture now. And maybe a unicorn. A Chicago unicorn.

Seven Soldiers of Victory: Vol. 1

Grant Morrison

Read books 1, 2, and 3 this weekend. So much better than trying to read all the seperate titles in the non-graphic novel editions. And really good. It's those damn evil Elves again, trying to destroy the world. Think "Strange and Mister Norell", but the elves have time machines and ray guns. Can't wait for book four to come out later this month. Like most Morrison, kind of confusing and insane and incredible and paranoid and totally entertaining.

""Now, 75 years later in an abundant society where people have laptops, cell phones, iPods and minds like empty rooms, I still plod along with books." - Harper Lee

All I have to say to Harper Lee, as a person who does own all those terrible things, is........*drool*........uhhhhh....................haha...............duuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...what's a "book"? Is that like a manual?
