Can anyone figure out why this forwarded email bothers me?
The lady that wrote this letter is Pam Foster of Pamela Foster and Associates in Atlanta. She's been in business since 1980 doing interior design and home planning. She recently wrote a letter to a family member serving in Iraq in response to their questioning ofAmerican coverage of the war. Read it!
WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS?
"Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11,2001? Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan, across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they? And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet? Well, I don't. I don't care at all. I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11. I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime inSaudi Arabia. I'll care when Abu Musab al-Zarqawi tells the world he is sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling, slashed throat. I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques. I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs. I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill ofRights. In the mean time, when I hear a story about a brave Marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I DON"T CARE! When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college hazing incident, rest assured that I don't care. When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank that I don't care. When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts that I don't care. And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and --you guessed it. If you agree with this view point, pass this on to all your e-mail friends. Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior! If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don't complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great country.
For those who can't guess, it does not matter that I do agree with a lot of the opinions expressed, especially those about the media. However, I despise people who try & guilt others into doing something. I do not care if it is patriotism or family solidarity. it still makes the author an insecure bully & that always gets my hackles up.

I Finally Get It
Yesterday, I did something truly un-amazing. I got lost on my way to work. How? Simple really, While there are multiple routes to get from home to work, I rarely (as in never) take them because they not only take too long but THERE IS NOTHING THERE! Houses are a treat and street lights are nonexistent type nothing. Mile after mile of pine trees. Since I already see mile after mile of pine tree on my current drive, I have no desire to explore country back roads that are even further out of the way than the ones I already know.
However, the GA-DOT decided to screw with my world a bit and actually pay attention to my griping. Well, maybe not mine, but there is a long stretch where there are more pot holes than actual road. So the road is closed indefinitely until it is fixed. I, being a bit of zombie when I drive, had seen the signs but just never went much past the thought that I really needed to remember that. So when they actually did close the road, I was completely unprepared.
So, since I had no idea where I was at but could not go forward the way I usually went, I got lost. I just loved every minute of being out in the middle of nowhere with only the comforting thought that I knew 1 of the highways I did know would eventually show up. Fortunately, I did luck onto a road I recognized & I was only 1/2 an hour late. Pause while I thank the Lord there were no cops because I was flying.
While I was flying down the road, I realized something rather disturbing. I finally figured out why my sister likes country music. Let me say that I am fond of just about all types of music, but opera, rap, western, country-western, & country are my least favorite genres. Pretty much in that order, as well. I am fond of just about all types of music. In my personal collection I have everything from Lords of Acid to ancient Japanese flute CD's. It is singing that I have a tough time sitting through. Most singers really just can't & it hurts, physically hurts.
But yesterday, while driving in a desperate attempt to find a road I recognized, I was listening to 106.9 the Gator & was impressed by what they played. It is a local country station & the 2 songs that distracted me & kept me listening involved rather sad themes. The 1st was by a woman & she was signing about how "she" had never walked on the moon, sung before a sold out crowd in NY, etc., but she was still someone's hero. She was "the keeper of the Cheerios," the one who with a smile let you know you mattered, and basically I turned into a watering pot about the point with the line about keeper of the Cheerios. I was then just bawling when the next song started. Once again, I have no clue who was singing, but this 1 was about a girl who was scared too death as she sat in the waiting room and as the dr. told her something was wrong between her white cells & red cells. And at the end of the song, her 1st love had just arrived to take her to the prom, and when he took off his cap, he was as bald as she was. I lost it, I admit it; though part of that was because I finally figured out just where I was.
I am such a sap.

It's Monday
I have found at the ever wonderful Wal-mart a wonderful way to annoy people. I found the Christmas bell jewelry. At $1 a piece, not to bad, & when it goes on sale I am REALLY going to stock up on the stuff. Right now I am wearing the bell bracelet on the same wrist as my metal watch so every key stroke, every step, every time I pick something up, the bells jingle. It is so freaking annoyingly cheerful & holiday themed that no one can really complain. I am loving it! It helps that I honestly love bells and would cheerfully wear bells dripping from my toes like they do in that old nursery rhyme from Mother Goose -
Ride a cock-horse to Banbury Cross,
To see a fine lady upon a white horse;
rings on her fingers and bells on her toes,
and she shall have music wherever she goes.
There is something about that nursery rhyme & the standard drawings that accompany it that I just like. Since I am the type who has bells and chimes hanging throughout every room in the house, on nearly every door, then wearing them is a shift in weight, forget small step.
This morning, while puttering, I reached a conclusion the exmi in particular will appreciate. I decided that I would stop decorating the bathrooms in frogs. You will have to ask him what his issues are about my froggy bathrooms, but as I looked around I decided that I preferred the chimes, bells & cats. The frogs are going to have to go. I like the little happy green frogs myself, or the funny ones with crowns, but there is only so much you can do with frogs. While I like the cheerful green, I vastly prefer the sound of the chimes and bells when I turn on the fans, open doors, or the cats walk through them. Frogs just aren't that soothing.

Thursday's Thoughts
It is Thursday and the worst is over for another week. Story time is over so all the little spawn have left, the building is picked up and all the toys put back, and it is QUIET! It helps that I have finished all of my chores and can play for the rest of the day.
I am returning to a well-nigh permanent rant for a bit, so please excuse the repetition. I have just been informed – AGAIN! – that as a single female I am not doing God’s Will. Seems that it is in the Bible that women are to be married and producing children while listening to their men folk about what is best for them.
Does "what a load of shit" mean anything to anyone? I get so freaking tired of this crap & it grates because I seem to have this mystical sign floating above my head that says, ”She Cares!” and “She needs to hear this!” Now, since I do not care & really do not want to hear anyone’s life story, I find this rather trying & my nerves do not stand the stress well. I am already fairly high strung, but this pushes every last nerve I have. Just because I say hello and have a smile on my face, oh, & actually look at people, does not mean I give a rat’s ass.
OK, that’s done. Thank you for bearing with me.
Change of subject now, but I just got in yesterday’s mail a wonderful surprise from a friend of mine. She sent me the “Firefly” series, along with a wonderful vanilla-scented candle, stickers, stationary, and an absolutely adorable note pad that I will probably take the cover & frame because I like it so much, and some odds & ends for my cats. Opening that box just brightened my day immeasurably.
Then, to help her gift counteract the evil miasma created by the hounding I have been receiving lately, 2 other friends sent me pictures! Yippie! 1 set was of a friend & her 4 month old adorable daughter. Those were fantastic!
The other set was an online album that another friend took while she was doing her missionary work in the Ukraine. Those pictures were enough to make me grateful for modern kitchens. Anytime I do not have to use a make to start the fire so that I can make breakfast, I am going to say a small prayer of thanksgiving. Every kitchen picture in that album has an oven that requires wood or coal. Yes, I could fumble my way through the experience, but give me modern appliances any day of the week.
Then, 1 of my staunch supporters here at work sent me this joke.
Subject: 1st GRADE!! 3rd grade test A first-grade teacher, Ms. Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, "Harry, what's your problem?" Harry answered, "I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!" Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office. While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed. Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test. Principal: "What is 3 x 3?" Harry: "9." Principal: "What is 6 x 6?" Harry: "36." And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know. The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, "I think Harry can go to the 3rd grade." Ms. Brooks says to the principal, "Let me ask him some questions." The principal and Harry both agreed. Ms. Brooks asks, "What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?" Harry, after a moment: "Legs." Ms. Brooks: "What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?" The principal wondered why she would ask such a question! Harry replied: "Pockets." Ms. Brooks: "What does a dog do that a man steps into?" Harry: "Pants." Ms. Brooks: What starts with a C, ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious, and contains thin, whitish liquid?" Harry: "Coconut." The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open. Ms. Brooks: "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?" The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry replied, "Bubble gum." Ms. Brooks: "What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?" Harry: "Shake hands." The principal was trembling. Ms. Brooks: "What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement?" Harry: "Fire truck." The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the teacher, "Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong...... "
Changing subjects again, but this is a bit of personal trivia that is bugging me. Due to a death, I contacted my ex-fiancé via his grandfather so that he would know and could send his condolences. I figured it was the right thing to do because the person who had just died mattered in his personal world. Mattered in mine as well, but I could not get off work to attend the funeral so all I can do is send a card & flowers. But anyway, the point is that instead of hearing back from the ex, I got an email telling me how he & his wife had separated and he had disappeared.
This blew me away completely because his mother is the sun his world revolves around, with his father & grandfather being the moons. They were incredibly close and, when I knew them well, they adored one another. So now my curiosity streak is itching madly because I want to know what happened to change the situation. I will be the 1st to agree that he is/was an arrogant, pompous, chauvinistic, control freak, but those adjectives can easily apply to me as well, though I hope no one has ever thought of me as chauvinistic. But I did live with him for more years than I care to recall & he was exactly what I needed when we met. So I guess I still care about how he is doing. Not enough to go track him down or anything insane like that, but I want to know that he is at least content.
From the letters he sent up till his marriage, I think he was desperately unhappy, but when he met his now ex-wife, he was happy again & it was SUCH a relief. I had been feeling guilty because I had broken up with him & since we had been in the middle of wedding plans, I know it was a definite shock. He actually joined the military once he finally accepted my decision, though in his letters he made it clear he did it partially because he could not find a job, partially to help keep his mind occupied, and partially to become more of the man he thought I wanted & needed.
Does guilt trip sound about right to anyone else? Thank God I have the circle of friends I do because it almost worked.
But, he met someone & amazingly enough my life became vastly easier, though the letter that came with his wedding invitation was rather odd. I hope to NEVER get a letter like that again. She informed me that she appreciated all the experiences the 2 of us had together because it helped make him the man she fell in love with, and how she hoped that we could become friends because I obviously meant so much to him & she just knew we were destined to be friends.
I had visions of arsenic in my dinner. I sent a gift along with my decision not to attend.
Seemed the smart thing to do.
Subject change –
I realized this morning when I stepped outside & it had gone from the mid-80’s to lower 50’s that I need different shoes. I did a mental tally of what I own shoe wise & realized that I have my heels that go with various formal wear, I have sandals ranging from plastic flip flops to the Dr. Scholl’s slip-ons, tennis shoes not fit for public viewing (which is why I wear them only at 6 am to take the dogs walking) & a pair of knee high moccasins. That is it. I have nothing remotely resembling casual work shoes that I can wear with skirts or slacks when it gets chilly.
This is terrifying because it means I have to brave shoe departments. I wear a 6 ½ with an extremely high arch, which means that I need shoes with laces or low in front so that I can get them on. Wearing a 6 ½ shoe means I have to go questing because that is not a common size. To further complicate matters, the only time I wear brown is if it is a leather bomber jacket. Otherwise, I have NOTHING brown, unless you count greenish khaki slacks as brown. So that cuts ½ the remaining selection down. And then there is the comfort aspect which means anything remotely attractive has to be tried on because there is a fairly strong chance they will not fit, even if they do match all the necessary superficial criteria.
I can find an entire outfit from the skin out, including purse & jewelry, faster than I can find 1 pair of shoes. This is terrifying.
I also need my hair trimmed, which is just annoying.
Ooops. Just checked my work email & had a nasty gram. Nothing like petty annoyances to make life just grand and show what people are really like. But I have checked out several cookbooks & have left them with various friends. Problem is that they are past due & I can’t renew them because there are holds. Normally not a big deal, except that the next person waiting for these cookbooks is my uber boss & she is a general pain. Not a bad person, but generally the sort I would rather go to the dentist for a root canal than sit through another meeting she chairs. Oh well. Guess I get to be demanding & gather up books this weekend.

Project reduces classic works to text messages
Thursday, November 17, 2005; Posted: 2:32 p.m. EST (19:32 GMT)

LONDON, England (AP) -- "Romeo, Romeo -- wher4 Rt thou Romeo?"
It could be the future of Shakespeare.
Dot mobile, a British mobile phone service aimed at students, says it plans to condense classic works of literature into SMS text messages. The company claims the service will be a valuable resource for studying for exams.
Academic purists will be horrified. Hamlet's famous query, "To be or not to be, that is the question," becomes "2b? Nt2b? ???"
John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" begins "devl kikd outa hevn coz jelus of jesus&strts war." ("The devil is kicked out of heaven because he is jealous of Jesus and starts a war.")
Some may dismiss the summaries as cheat notes for the attention-deficit generation, but John Sutherland, a University College London English professor who consulted on the project, said they could act as a useful memory aid.
"The educational opportunities it offers are immense," said Sutherland, who chaired the judging panel for this year's Booker Prize for fiction.
Sutherland said the compressed nature of text messages allowed them to "fillet out the important elements in a plot."
"Take for example the ending to Jane Eyre -- 'MadwyfSetsFyr2Haus.' (Mad wife sets fire to house.) Was ever a climax better compressed?"
But political commentator and author Oliver Kamm said the terse texts were "more than a travesty."
"What you lose with text messaging in literature is what makes literature what it is -- the imagery, the irony, the nuance," he told British Broadcasting Corp. radio.
"What I fear will happen with text versions of Shakespeare is that students will be encouraged not to read the books but to settle for something else, and people don't need excuses not to read books. They don't read enough as it is."
Books planned for the service include Charles Dickens' "Bleak House," whose tale of the interminable legal suit of Jarndyce and Jarndyce is reduced to a few snappy lines, and Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," which describes hunky Mr. Darcy as "fit&loadd" (handsome and wealthy).
Dot mobile said it planned to launch the service in January, with Shakespeare's complete works available by April. The texts will be free to subscribers to the company's phone service.

Dot mobile, a British mobile phone service aimed at students, says it plans to condense classic works of literature into SMS text messages. The company claims the service will be a valuable resource for studying for exams.
Academic purists will be horrified. Hamlet's famous query, "To be or not to be, that is the question," becomes "2b? Nt2b? ???"
John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" begins "devl kikd outa hevn coz jelus of jesus&strts war." ("The devil is kicked out of heaven because he is jealous of Jesus and starts a war.")
Some may dismiss the summaries as cheat notes for the attention-deficit generation, but John Sutherland, a University College London English professor who consulted on the project, said they could act as a useful memory aid.
"The educational opportunities it offers are immense," said Sutherland, who chaired the judging panel for this year's Booker Prize for fiction.
Sutherland said the compressed nature of text messages allowed them to "fillet out the important elements in a plot."
"Take for example the ending to Jane Eyre -- 'MadwyfSetsFyr2Haus.' (Mad wife sets fire to house.) Was ever a climax better compressed?"
But political commentator and author Oliver Kamm said the terse texts were "more than a travesty."
"What you lose with text messaging in literature is what makes literature what it is -- the imagery, the irony, the nuance," he told British Broadcasting Corp. radio.
"What I fear will happen with text versions of Shakespeare is that students will be encouraged not to read the books but to settle for something else, and people don't need excuses not to read books. They don't read enough as it is."
Books planned for the service include Charles Dickens' "Bleak House," whose tale of the interminable legal suit of Jarndyce and Jarndyce is reduced to a few snappy lines, and Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," which describes hunky Mr. Darcy as "fit&loadd" (handsome and wealthy).
Dot mobile said it planned to launch the service in January, with Shakespeare's complete works available by April. The texts will be free to subscribers to the company's phone service.

Normalcy
What is normalcy? Can anyone tell me? And if my life is normal, than someone please shoot me now and end my misery.
Beyond that particularly random thought, I can't say that much else is happening. Thanks to my oh so generous nephew, I have managed to wade through a 2 week bought with a head cold. Decided that Fisherman's Friends cough drops are the best, but they are damned difficult to actually find. NyQuil is a great invention and its inventor should be cannonized for sainthood. Puffs are better than Kleenex. Stuff like that.
I have read several books but most fall under "Santa Paws Come Home!" or ""barbie and the Magical Pegasus" category. I did read the latest by Alan Dean Foster, "Running From the deity." I love the Flinx series by him and can recommend Foster without any compunction. I liked this latest installment and really want the next in the series. I also finished some romances, but unless someone really wants to know about Feehan, Wilkes, Philips, or Roberts, I won't bore my few readers with commentaries.
I watched several movies and liked most of them. "DNAngel" needs help, but I will watch the next 2 DVD's of the series because I can. "Kyo Kara Maoh!; God (?) Save the King!" was absolutely hilarious and I am going to move up my personal time line to enroll with Netflix so that I can watch the entire series. I watched "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and intend to buy the movie because I enjoyed it that much. I especially appreciated how it remained true to the book, which always impresses me. I also re-watched "Herbe the Love Bug; Fully Loaded" a few times too many. Much as I enjoy that movie, my nephew REALLY likes the movie faaar too much.
Different topic, but can anyone tell me ways to lose belly flab? I walk/jog a minimum of 5 miles a day now, I do various sit ups, there is yoga in my daily routine, pilates 3 times a week, push ups, walking with hand weights, lifting 50 lbs. boxes every day, yet I can't lose my tummy flab. It is getting down right annoying & I am open to any options.
This bit is based on an ongoing conversation that I hear all the fucking time here at work. So yes, I am going to rant and rant viciously. But what the hell is it with people that a woman is considered either incomplete and/or gay if she is not married &/or has children? Why is it so necessary to other people that I either pop out some kids or get married? I do not want kids, all right? They are cute, wonderful individuals, but I do not want to carry a bowling ball for 9 months & then end the misery with several hours of intense labor with multiple witnesses to my humiliated. I know it is supposed to me a mystical experience and all that, but fuck that shit. And marriage? OK, IF I were to meet someone I was willing to go to bed with for more than an hour or 2, and found them to be fun to hang around with, and they had similar interests, and they smelled right, and they liked my friends and family, and they liked similar movies and books, and they balanced me mentally and emotionally, and they liked animals, and they could cope with my family and obsessive compulsive personality, and I actually wanted to see them naked more than once, and I was willing to be naked in front of them at all, then maybe I might think about dating. Since I can't even make myself trust enough to go out for a night of mindless fucking any more, I think the odds are fairly low that I will ever really date let alone get married.
And what really gets me, and is 50% of the reason I will dig my heels in & probably never marry, is that I hate how so many people feel that marriage is the only way to go. If you are not married, then how can you have a life? How can you cope? Why would you want to even live?
IT DRIVES ME NUTS! Why should I marry at all? Even if I ever find someone I am willing to have sex with again (HAH!) marriage is financially not worth doing. And since I have seen only a limited number of worth while marriages, let alone relationships, I can't understand why it is a goal for so many people who only know me as the "Library Lady" that they must get me knocked up and/or married.
And yes, this is an issue with me. I find it offensive when people walk in & skip the social pleasantries & jump straight into a conversation about my non-existent sex life. It is non-existent by choice. I am still childless by choice. I have no desire to change this state of affairs. Why this offends so many is becoming a major point of grumpiness with me and when I get grumpy, I start getting distinctly mulish. Ornery. Hard headed. Stubborn. Pig-headed. Obnoxious. All are good ways to describe my attitude when I get pissed off because of someone trying to foist their attitudes on to my life.
I am done ranting now. Ignore the overblown hysterics. Thanks for reading.
I have too many ear worms running through my head to ever keep a straight face. EX: Any time someone asks, "who you going to call?" All I can think is "GhostBusters!" Or if someone says "My boyfriend is back," all I can think of is that old 50's song. Today I have had the Monty Python "Spam" theme music running through my head, but "germs" is substituted for "spam." Highly annoying.

What Makes a bad Porn Movie?
Before we can begin to identify the worst 100 porn movies of all time, we need to first define what a bad porn movie is. Unlike regular movies, porn does not need to focus that much on plot or character development. No, the point of a porn movie is to get your rocks off. Thus, the issue probably boils down to this: would most connoisseurs of porn consider the film to be jackoffable or jackawful.
[edit]
The List
According to God's True Word, the following are the worst 100* porn movies ever made.** Readers are required to have their sporks to hand.
* God does not care to count this list too closely, and believers are wise not to criticise divine numeration policy.
** Some movies may not in fact be porn.

A failed attempt, as not one ticket nor one DVD/video has been sold in the 4 years since the release. The movie, sadly enough, is the reason Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise are "together".
88. Horny Potter F%%$#ing F$$%@$s the Sorcerer in the A#$$
(2001) The ineptly titled porn parody to "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". Suggestions originally started from Horny Potter and the Sorcerer's Bone, and Hairy Porter makes the Sorcerer Moan, then degrading into Hairy F$$%$ing Penis makes the Sorcerer F%^3ing Groan and so forth. Gradually, the focus of the filmmaking was drawn from the hardcore action to the title. The "crack team" (Ricky and Joey) spent a matter of minutes attempting to agree on a title. It ultimately was doomed to porn obscurity, but remains a testament to half-assed (heh-heh) work in the porn industry.

85. The Woman in Me

This is NOT Chandler Bang
76. Chandler's List
(USA, 1944) A spin-off from Friends, after the producers noted that Sex in the City scored rather better ratings. "Could it be any sadder?", Chandler Bang's frequent dialogue tries to keep it together, failing miserably. The only highlights are Courtney Cox's full-frontal nude scenes.

What Makes a bad Porn Movie?
Before we can begin to identify the worst 100 porn movies of all time, we need to first define what a bad porn movie is. Unlike regular movies, porn does not need to focus that much on plot or character development. No, the point of a porn movie is to get your rocks off. Thus, the issue probably boils down to this: would most connoisseurs of porn consider the film to be jackoffable or jackawful.
[edit]
The List
According to God's True Word, the following are the worst 100* porn movies ever made.** Readers are required to have their sporks to hand.
* God does not care to count this list too closely, and believers are wise not to criticise divine numeration policy.
** Some movies may not in fact be porn.
[edit]
100 to 91

99. Your Body and You - Part 2, Coitus and Reproduction

89. The President's Diaries
(USA, 2001) A 2.5 hour long glimpse into the supposed affairs of Bill Clinton. His fear of Hillary led to him not doing much for the film, and most of the movie focused on Monica (played by Katie Holmes), who tried to make the movie work. A failed attempt, as not one ticket nor one DVD/video has been sold in the 4 years since the release. The movie, sadly enough, is the reason Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise are "together".
88. Horny Potter F%%$#ing F$$%@$s the Sorcerer in the A#$$
(2001) The ineptly titled porn parody to "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". Suggestions originally started from Horny Potter and the Sorcerer's Bone, and Hairy Porter makes the Sorcerer Moan, then degrading into Hairy F$$%$ing Penis makes the Sorcerer F%^3ing Groan and so forth. Gradually, the focus of the filmmaking was drawn from the hardcore action to the title. The "crack team" (Ricky and Joey) spent a matter of minutes attempting to agree on a title. It ultimately was doomed to porn obscurity, but remains a testament to half-assed (heh-heh) work in the porn industry.
87. Rita Does Dallas
(2005) Low budget independently made pornographic flick. Universally panned by critics, but noted for the awesome blowjobs.
You DO NOT want to know what happens next..!

The movie consists of seven hours of crazy Vogon porn (blowjobs, hand-rubbing and sludging) and Marvin giving cunnilingus to Trillian (critics all over the world have agreed that the best part in the whole movie is where Marvin rubs his enormous head against Trillian's clit and mutters: "What's the point".
85. The Woman in Me

This is NOT Chandler Bang

(USA, 1984) Thought by many to be a product placement scam by the Star Wars Marital Aids Empire.
12. Star Wars - A New Ho'

It's A Monday
Ranger Tom, Zombie Lama - I’m sorry! I know that I have been off the blog recently. All I can say is that being understaffed makes for an exciting time and I really and truly hate it. Mostly because it leaves me exhausted and wide open to those delightful flu bugs. Fortunately, drugs are available at the local Wal-Mart. Unfortunately, especially since I fully intended to bake this weekend, I did nothing beyond sleep and pretend to function at work.
This has been 1 of the few times I have been grateful that this job is so mindless. I have been tanked up on NyQuil & DayQuil & a true zombie.
I am beyond brain dead right now. I just want to sleep yet if I do not show up, it throws an already bad staffing situation into the sort of chaos that I will feel guilty about. I hate feeling guilty and being catholic, I feel guilt remarkably easily.
I wish that I could say something about the past week or so, but well, it is all a blur. I know that I watched Jet Li’s “Unleashed,” and enjoyed it. I know that I read several dozen books and enjoyed them all, but it would take more brain cells than I currently have to tell you what I read. I know that several projects have been completed here at work. I can name those because I am looking right at them.
We have decorated for Thanksgiving. The inventory process has been completed and the equipment sent on. The nonfiction has been shifted and sometime this week I will finish the biographies, reference, mysteries & inspirational sections. What is scary about that is the fact that while there are more sections, they still only equal out to ½ the adult nonfiction. I have plans to weed the collection soon and that is the highlights of my work. Excitement.
It amazes me how incredibly busy this place can be when 1 or more staff members are gone. When I have a full staff, I can get everything on my plate accomplished, come up with make work for volunteers, assign jobs to my staff, and we can all have plenty of time to still read a book or 2 a day. Yet 1 person takes off, and all bets are off.
Last night I watched 1 of the few shows I make a point of watching – Extreme Home Make Over on ABC. I know it is a bunch of sentimental crap and there are numerous flaws, but I still like the show. I know that questions like how are they going to pay for the new & improved power bill are floating about in these new home owners heads, but still! These are incredible houses geared specifically towards these families. There are millions of families just like these who need help just as badly, but it does not change the fact that these specific families now have better, safer homes. Every single bit helps.
After that, I watched the anime “Gantz.” Let me say that is 1 of the more interesting animes I have seen in a long time and exmi’s brother is obviously sadistic because he only gave exmi vol.’s 1 through 3! I appreciate how exmi shared the animes despite being tortured with Extreme Home Make Overs. However, I want to know what happens next! I refuse to be patient!
Zombie Lama tagged me with this & I have been sitting on it for a while.
Seven things I want to do before I die:
1. Go to the San Diego Zoo

2. Be social

7. ????
And I know that I am supposed to tag 7 others, but everyone has already done this, so why bother?
For the record, I am ready to go home. It is 6:50 pm & I get off at 8 pm, but I was ready at 2 pm to go home to bed. It does not help that I still need to run by WalMart & the bank & take care of all those "little" 5 minute chores. I might skip them all & just get up ridiculously early tomorrow & take care of everything then.
This has been 1 of the few times I have been grateful that this job is so mindless. I have been tanked up on NyQuil & DayQuil & a true zombie.

When I have a full staff, I can get everything on my plate accomplished, come up with make work for volunteers, assign jobs to my staff, and we can all have plenty of time to still read a book or 2 a day. Yet 1 person takes off, and all bets are off.
Last night I watched 1 of the few shows I make a point of watching – Extreme Home Make Over on ABC. I know it is a bunch of sentimental crap and there are numerous flaws, but I still like the show. I know that questions like how are they going to pay for the new & improved power bill are floating about in these new home owners heads, but still! These are incredible houses geared specifically towards these families. There are millions of families just like these who need help just as badly, but it does not change the fact that these specific families now have better, safer homes. Every single bit helps.
After that, I watched the anime “Gantz.” Let me say that is 1 of the more interesting animes I have seen in a long time and exmi’s brother is obviously sadistic because he only gave exmi vol.’s 1 through 3! I appreciate how exmi shared the animes despite being tortured with Extreme Home Make Overs. However, I want to know what happens next! I refuse to be patient!

I might skip them all & just get up ridiculously early tomorrow & take care of everything then.
