Ooooh, amber, that gives me the willies. I had a guest last night stop mid-sentence as she was giving me her dessert order, look at me hard, grab my hand and say, "Something big is going to happen to you this year. No more messing around. It will be the real deal, I'm serious about this."

WTH?

Dodgy will get a bit part in a musical, get great reviews, sign a development deal, go all Hollywood on us and refuse to even admit he knows us.

Remember all the hype over the McDeluxe or whatever the fuck it was? I'm a big fan of both fast food and marketing mutations and even I found that to be a bit much.

I, for one, would welcome the return of the Slim Goodbody unitard. Innards are the new black.

are you really sure you wanna see my innards, jrossi4r? the liver especially? to say nothing of the unitard...

posted by jonmc 31 December | 18:42

Do they make a unitard large enough to depict your liver, jonmc? Maybe we could embroider it on a matching tote bag or something?

Rothko and dios will finally consummate their long-simmering affair. On Oprah's couch. While Katie Holmes-Cruise gives birth (silently) on Oprah's chair.

While Katie Holmes-Cruise gives birth

gives birth to what exactly?

Do they make a unitard large enough to depict your liver, jonmc?

Oh, yeah. It's other organs of mine that the unitard couldn't conatin, baby.

I suspect it would be some form of head-footed mollusk.

1. P vs NP remains unresolved.
2. /me retains job (it is to be hoped)

P vs. NP ????

Sounds like symbolic logic.

Prince vs. New Pornographers.

It's shaping up to be quite a battle.

1) I will be elected to the City Council, based entirely on my "Free Booze Fridays" platform.

2) My liver will finally give out on live television, teaching America a valuable lesson about Freedom and Liberty.

Jonmc will find fame and fortune when his line of handbags mcNY, is picked up by Benetton. Amberglow will marry a republican policy wonk. Mudpuppie will start managing Mexican wrestlers on tour in Japan. Eth will become sheriff of Dover NH. Quonsar's name will come up in the Demi/Ashton scandal. It will be revealed that taz is out of the USA because she is wanted for shooting a man in Reno just to watch him die. The world will stand in shock and awe when it is reveled that Saddam's WMD were hidden in a giant pink bunny on a hillside in Italy!

But amber, I hear Mary Matalin has a very cute brother!

Meanwhile, it will be discovered that CIA operatives have been torturing prisoners by forcing them to listen to Wendell Wadio.
