I've got my turkey Lunchable and a bottle of water... it's bloggin' time! First things first, does anybody else think its weird that John McCain looks like he's got the driest skin but that it may be melting? I think it is weird. There's just no way that old so and so can possibly win this election. I don't think the red staters can mate, go 18 years into the future, find their future children (while avoiding their future selves for fear of undoing God's existence), and return to the present with their future children, amend the Contitution specifically allowing future citizens the right to vote in current elections, and then all vote for John McCain. Inconceivable! I really hope that Sarah Palin manages to stay in the media view though. It stands to give NBC audiences a couple more minutes of Tina Fey every week and the only thing better than that folks... is another couple more minutes of Tina Fey ever day.
I've recently come back around to the wonderful world of Lunchables lunch snacks; specifically, the original line-up of crackers, meat, cheese, and cookies. My favorite of these combinations is Cracker, Turkey, Cheddar, OREO Cookies! The Ham combo comes with Vanilla cookies, which are also pretty good. This brings me to wonder why the cocky bastards at OREO only bring out the vanilla cookies on occassion!?! Is chocolate sooooooo much better that you've decided, despite a hungry public, to latch onto and only promote the dark side!?! I have to rely on subpar cookie companies to provide me with a vanilla option and that truly a shame. Open your eyes OREO! There's so many more possibilities out there! What if you took one vanilla cookie with one chocolate cookie and put a strawberry cream in the middle... NEOREOPOLITANS®!!!
Oh, btw, one of five WTF Reports has been accepted. This led to further internet investigation (facebook search) and ultimately huge disappointment (the new facebook?) when I stumbled upon some unflattering pictures. Sorry, lady. Unfortunately, beggars can be choosers when it comes to love (I think Lars Ulrich said that back in '95ish). This is why I'm pretty sure evolution wants my blood line gone. I'm programmed to believe that any girl I'm attracted to has no interest in me; however, I lack 'what if scenario' programming that defaults to just settling for whatever I can get. That's buncombe! Somewhere along the line, my DNA dropped the ball.
Wouldn't it be nice if our news organizations took their jobs seriously? I really enjoyed watching John McCain spew robot answers underfire by this no-name Maine newsguy. It's not specific to John McCain though. I wish that all serious political candidates had to face honest questioning. It'd be nice to get these figures off of their platforms and get a feel for his or her own knowledge, experience, and/or agenda. How odd is it that the only place to consistently see this type of news is on Comedy Central? I trust Jon Stewart more than my local newsteam... If those pudwacks were any good they wouldn't be in Des Moines, IA. What a mess.
Dillinger Four's new album Civil War leaked yesterday (whatever that means...) and somehow (I DON'T KNOW HOW!!!), I've listened to it (or have I!?!). It's effing gnarly! The recording is super clean (even cleaner than Situational Comedy), which I appreciate. I really dislike when "punk" bands produce "punk" recordings... LoFi doesn't hide that you're not very talented. I haven't really paid attention to the lyrics in these songs yet, but I suspect they're just as good as always. The vocal melodies are perfect though. Between D4 and the Lawrence Arms, I can't decide who I enjoy more. They both layer great dual vocals over aggressive tunes in a way that makes Billy full of happy. Anyhow, I'd be content for the above-mentioned two bands, along with Bad Religion and Pulley, to be the only punk bands whose music finds my earholes.
Burn After Reading tonight. I may even try to watch The Women at some point this weekend... Eva Mendes... grrrrrrrrrr. Definitely a Billy Certified Babe.
I had some pleasantly odd dreams last night... it's moderately exhilarating to hook up with an ex-girlfriend while running from the owner of a hotel you used to work at. It turned out, he just needed me to sign some termination papers... not kill me. It also turned out that although I've been sexually dormant for a few years now, I've gotten much better at the game of getting busy (granted it was my dream... Weird, wild shtuff.
I have not watched or read any part of John McCain's speech from last night. I have no desire to... I don't give a shit about his time at the Hanoi Hilton. I don't care to be mocked by a Republican crowd saying 'Country First.' I'll pigeon-hole the GOP as a bunch of rich, homophobic, red-neck dumbasses... until I meet one to the contrary. I consider myself to be a moderate... there are 'Republican views' that I can get behind. Unfortunately, there isn't a single Republican politician that I could do the same for (with the exception of some of what Ron Paul says). The ideas have been buried beneath so much negativity and corruption. Acceptance of the status quo when 'the status is not... quo.' There's nothing to be excited about with McCain's campaign... just mortified. If Daddy Mac circa 2000 were here, before he was a neo-con-android, I could at least be happy that whoever wins this election, it will be an improvement over GW. I'm on board with the notion John McCain's presidency would just bring 'more of the same.' That's a pretty terrifying idea given the volatile world climate he'd be inheriting. I would really like to see a sound defeat of McCain in this election. One that would perhaps send the GOP back to the drawing board on what they represent and how they should go about doing so... turn them into a bunch of Ron Pauls? At least they'd be adorable.
Time for a shout-out to Mikey C. and AK. These two dudes can be heard in Des Moines, every Thursday night from 8:00 - 10:00pm on KDPS 88.1FM. Last night was their first show. I listened to the last half hour and counted two lols and one giggle. I'm going to be a guest on the show at some point... that'll be neat.
A lot of work for me the next few days... which means a lot of getting paid very little to do very little, which sounds fair. The Fleur is opening War, Inc. and Tell No One. I haven't heard anything about the latter, but the former stars John Cusack, Dan Ackroyd, and Marissa Tomei (did you see Before the Devil Knows You're Dead? You should if only for this sexy lady's nude scenes... not to be a perv... she just looks great naked). It's a political satire, which means it's right up that alley where I may be walking past, thinking "eh, can't be too bad." Of course, hobos live in alleys and sometimes they mug people for liquor-money. So it goes with alleys. Next weekend, the new Coen Bros. movie 'Burn After Reading' opens. Count me as excited. You put George Clooney, Brad Pitt, or John Malkovich in any movie and I will see it. Also coming out next weekend is Righteous Kill, starring Al Pacino and Robert Deniro. Can't be bad right? I have my doubts.
Welp, that does it for this one... have a good weekend!
