What?! I already ready have a set of Jack Mangan coffee cup coasters.
Wow, missed it by that much…
I wuz gonna….. zen got ze passy outty drunky.
I’m mailing the Paul Lynde Halloween Special back to Netflix tonight, so if you add it to the top of your queue, you can have it next!
I hope you get to sleep that off, Lo Pan.
JohnBoze: This episode has a lot of you in it. Most of us will miss out on your PBP from the previous episode.
Congrats, Kurt! You win a play of your Deadpan bumper in this episode!
Goodnight :Goon:
That will teach me to play Halo 3 till 4am…
Even forgot to the bin out…doh!
+put
As long as you aren’t soiling yourself in lieu of using the toilet, you’re still okay.
Friday we find out if Fray (my soon-to-be-released baby (3.0!)) will turn over or if we are going to have a C-section. My fingers are crossed.
It’s Thursday and you guys all came over here. I hate it when I forget that it’s Thursday.
Good luck on flipping that bun in the oven, Nomad.
Hey Pan.
It seems, if I’m going to sleep in, I’m going to do it on a Thursday. Don’t know why. Must just be one of those things.
good morning deadpan
There. Bed sheets changed, first load a laundry in and food in my tummy. Now I can listen to Deadpan.
NO, I will not put my hand upon my hip. I will not dip when you dip so we dip.
NOMAD! #3??????? omg youre a braver man than I. 2 kills me enough.
Wait until they are teenagers. They you’ll regret three.
Fray sounds a cool name for a villain.
Cough
Show notes are done. They’re a little late but Jack doesn’t put them up until after lunch anyway so I figured it’s all good.
The Fray is also the name of a terrible terrible band from my home state.
Early morning conference calls suck.
Or a certain Vampire slayer in the future.
I have a question: How do you say “Bitch” in workese so you don’t get into trouble?
“bitch”
I said so I don’t get into trouble, Lo.
Why?
itchbay?
That IS how I say “bitch” at work. You have a square job, man.
Today’s Dead Pan was pretty smurfy. I’m not sure what I more excited about, the new smurftastic version of “Closer” or the Deadpanized version of “Still Alive” that I think Amy is now obligated to sing all the way through.
Shit, theres a new Deadpan….
CW: the lost colony
It ha the highlander in it 😉
ZP takes a swing at Spider-man:Shattered Dimensions:
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/2213-Spider-Man-Shattered-Dimensions
Tonight I’m recording this
http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1512310/
I may have to do a play by play tomorrow
“Time for a little highlander in ye” or something.
You know, I alway fond Adrian Paul rather nummy looking
Fond = found
That’s the scottish pronounciation right?
No I think that would be “narmy” looking
I need water. Then a Gatorade. Then some more water.
“Nothing’s worse than Cardiff”
Have you been to Cardiff and would you agree, Van?
lmao.
Jack: You cracked me up reading that comment.
I’ve been to Cardiff. It wasn’t that bad. At least to visit.
Awww. I thought the mini-Van memory would have been about Van.
*cough*
Holy cow, those are some strange ass drugs those colonists must be taking
ditto Ill get your coat.
Well like all big cities it has it’s no go areas, but they have pumped a lot of money into the city in recent years and it’s a nice place to visit..especially if you are a fan of the new Dr Who.
Eeew. The trees tore his arms off
Limb….from…limb?
Nightmare on Elm Street?
Hubby has informed me he’s leaving me on Tuesday… At least for a few days
I guess that tree wasn’t all bark and no bite. *rimshot*
I wonder which of my many paramours I should have over while he’s gone :happy:
You leave your rimshots off this board, Rhett.
Good morning gang.
Howl.
Hey Wolf, it’s been a while
On another note, one of the better B horrors I’ve seen this week was Dorothy Mills
http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1034306/
I’ll get a towel.
Yes. Yes you will.
One of the best horror themed cereals Ive eaten this week was Count Chocula. Made by General Mills.
The yard guys ate here to clean the leaves. Unfortunatly most of them are still on the trees
There’s a necklace like that.
The rimshot, not Count Chocula.
I want to get a donair for lunch but I’m also expecting a delivery. I guess, if the delivery person doesn’t show up on the next hour, I’m stuck eating what ever’s in the house
Well after this weeks show notes…I’m wondering if Jack’s lost my stolen lyrics recording…
Frankenberry?
Sit! Neil sit!
After reading the show notes? I’m assuming you haven’t heard the episode yet
Heeeeeyyyyyyyyy!
Jerkin! Like butta!
Crap! Van, I believe your stolen lyrics file is still sitting in my 60L3 folder. Thanks for the reminder.
Been buried in stuff… Work is more than fun.
Family has been busy.
Life has been mostly good.
“The yard guys ate here to clean the leaves. Unfortunatly most of them are still on the trees”
????
You had to feed the yard guys first?
Why did they go into the trees? Was it something you fed them? Did the yard service hire monkeys?
I . am . so . confused.
CP: I’ll Believe In You (Or I’ll Be Leaving You Tonight) — The Tragically Hip
*taps J0e*
Pssst…. just go with her on this.
*makes crazy sign*
A crazy sign? Like one that reads “Palin 2012”?
Were the yard guys eaten by the tree that tore them limb from limb? Is that what I’m hearing?
I grow my help on trees. You wouldn’t believe what I have to use for fertilizer 😉
Jack, it’s good to see you back. I hope the busy stuff isn’t coming with too much stress.
Nope not too much stress… Wander Radio Productions
though is getting closer…
Bang Bang
“Bunnies are the kraziest peoplez”
*wiggles nose at Lo Pan*
No WNDR, I was talking to myself, but it’s good to see you too.
*blank stare at Bunny, then to Jack, then to Bunny, then slow back away*
Oh well then… ummm…
carry on…
But which Jack? How can you tell them apart??
WNDR, you will have to do a guest Deadpan spot to tell us all about WRP. when the time is right.
You just say the name….. say the name….
I will be more than happy too… Jack …
No candlesticks were lit in the making of this comment.
Hi, DP. I miss yous.

I think that Amy B (I think that should be her stage name) should get a contract with a recording company…

EssBee FTW!
Jack youve hit the yourselfpot! Its….. like finding out Santa really does exist.
Oh EssBee…. *kissywink*
Well, I gave in and got Fallout New Vegas. Currently going through the forever long install.
Long as its not Fallout Boy
“Look out Radioactive Man!”
Well done, Bunny. Thats well done.
What? Hubby called and said he was coming home early? What the heck is he doing that for? Doesn’t he know I have a new game to play?
And there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
What, What? You like your bunnies well done, Lo? I prefer mine alive and kicking 🙂
And there was much rejoicing.
OMG. I don’t know if i want to play this game now
http://kotaku.com/5669049/the-sexiest-fallout-new-vegas-collectors-edition-unboxing-youll-see-today
My God, the guy’s breathless just opening the box.
The guy’s pretty excited.
“My God, the guy’s breathless just opening the box.”
*blink. blink*
where’d I leave Van’s coat?
I’ll get my trenchcoat.
Can’t remember when I was that excited about a game.
Did you know you can have Felicia Day as a companion in Fallout New Vegas? I’ll be picking up a copy in the not to distant future.
wait … are we talking about the same game?
Wow. Thank you so much for the kind feedback, everyone. I will be sure to remember to record all of “Still Alive” for the Deadpan one of these days.

Oh look, that lesbian is back on the boards!

Amy, that would rock.

Avs in trouble.
Good bye good bye good bye bye. Leave it. Damn, now I have to fish out a cassette.
Amy, if you need a backing track for “Still Alive” I volunteer to make one for you, although with my limited skill it could take some time. 🙂 Perhaps my skill will be better after our smurfy upcoming project.
“CAts”?
Rhettro: That would be fantastic! I would absolutely love a backing track from you. Thank you so much! 🙂
Currently About to Smoke = CAtS
Bum dum bum dum dum bum ahhhhhhh LEAVE it
I FINALLY was able to see The Boondock Saints as well as its sequel. I fucking hate Troy Duffy. Hate him like genital warts. However these are great fucking films. The original still holds up 10 years later as a piece of magic and its much maligned sequel of last year (probably because no one wants to give Duffy credit for anything anymore) is right on par with the original, tho it is a few notches below. Love these films and love the soundtracks.
Try blasting The Skids “Here Come the Saints” while not thrashing about all giddy like. Delicious.
Goodnight MacManus.
Sorry, make that “The Saints are Coming”.
Goodnight errata.
They want EFX.
Boondock Saints is a good one, tho I’ve not yet seen the sequel.
When the saints go marching in?
Definitely watch out for the Boonpod Taints, however.
Goodnight :stretch:
Sylver is almost 14 and lives down south with her mom. Rom is almost 11 and has been living with me for about eight years. My 3.0 is coming only after many major iterations…

If you need to ask you don’t need to know…
Yeah I haven’ta clue.

Hey Pan!
I play about two hours of FNV last night. According to the stats I played about 2% of the game. If I extrapolate that, it means I have 100 hours of game time. I wonder how accurate that is.
I’ve forgotten what FNV stands for..
Twice I tried to tell Van. But Stupid WP kept eating my answer
Lets see what it thinks of this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallout:_New_Vegas
Ha! Eat that :ftb:
It occured to me this morning … given the time of year, we should help Ed with some home buying tips.
If the Realtor showing the home has an eye-patch and a hook for a hand you should move along.
If there is an old cemetery/grave/Indian burial mound on the property … despite the stainless steel appliances, you should look for another house.
If it is a multi-story house and there is an upper room for which the Realtor can’t seem to find a key … yeh, next house please.
Finally, if the walls bleed … at the very least you are going to need to negotiate an exorcism into the closing costs. Paint is NOT going to cover that up!
If there’s a room in the basement that’s painted blood red and has a pentagram drawn in the middle – forget it.
If there’s a crazy seeming old man in front warning you to stay away…
If there is a giant stone table in the basement covered in dark stains, you might want to rethink your purchase
Keeping in mind “location location location” –
Actually stop by the local schools. An unsettling sense of fear and despair surrounding the school is normal, the slight smell of rotting flesh is not.
Also, a preponderance of twins in the school yard could be not so good.
Take the time to check out th zoning in your neighborhood. Avoid any area’s that allow “light industry”, “mobile homes” or “Inter-dimensional portals”.
Stay away from pet cemeteries as well
Make sure the owner didn’t leave behind any books that seem to be covered in a strange leather like material but is definitely not cowhide.
Meet the neighbors before you make an offer and pay attention to their homes.
An excessive amount of chainsaws, extensive collections of puppets, well equipped surgery rooms and the presence of Bruce Campbell are all things that might lead to “buyer’s remorse” in the future.
Also, if there is an abandoned hospital or asylum anywhere within ten klicks, try another area.
Watch for strange weather conditions like really think fog.
When going through the house, if your starts talking to the static in the owner’s tv or even seems to talk to someone you can’t see. Pay attention
If you starts = if your kid starts
On a different note, I wanted to record something but hubby seems to have taken all the microphones. May have to improvise.
If the upper floors bend at right angles to reality..run away.
Hah! A Robert Heinlein short story reference…
It turns out my netbook has a built in mic. Go me!
Now I must start supper. Going to throw stuff for chili in the slow cooker.
Aha, CatS.
TEB: I bet the 100 hours isn’t that far off. I played about 70 hours of Fallout 3 and didn’t finish all the quests.
That’s true ditto. I did about the same.
OK Panites! Grab your popcorn and your security blanket, it’s movie time.
FNV is in the future for me. I’m working on Bioshock 2.
Yea! Movie time!!
Today’s movie is Goblin. The DVR Says:
Halloween spawns a goblin that is bent on taking a baby form an unsuspecting family, and it’s up to their teenage daughter to save her little brother from becoming the creature’s meal.
I couldn’t get into the Bioshocks. I tend to avoid FPS games. Motion sickness is not my friend
Pressing play now.
October 31 1831
The DVR seems to have cut the first minute or so, so I don’t know if it has the trifecta of horror movies
“all that is unclean we give up to the flame”
As I recall, they weren’t big into baths back then. They should all burn
Curses

This baby never sleeps.
He shaved. I like him better with the beard
strange things are afoot
Twenty minutes into the movie the body count is one from olden tyme and two modern
Wait, what?
It’s always about the baby isn’t it?
Whiny bitch
Don’t forget. This is a SyFy movie.
sheriff investigates
Boy that goblin can move
Crazy old ladies
Leave before it’s too late

Could never get into the Falliut games..even the isometric ones.
Willow Road? No Way!
I always liked your coffee, Bea
There’s a way to end the curse

You smell of baby.
Oh oh. Dropped the spear
This is just silly
I have to find my baby brother
What is this, Labyrinth?

Hello?

I want the truth
Why on earth would Huey Lewis & The News put out a new album?

Naw.
I just don’t understand this movie

And we all live happily ever after.
What a terrible movie
If your cell phone doesn’t get any reception in the pantry. . . .
“Crazy old man” “Charlie the Beer Guy”
This still seems to describe the same person.
Cause, ditto, they want a new drug.
One that won’t make me sick.
One that wont make you crash your car?
Aw, too late.
Caught up.
Maybe Huey Lewis is going to do an album of songs inspired by movies. Oh no wait, he claims he doesn’t do those. . . that fucking liar.
Or one that will leave me Stuck with you…
wait – what?
ditto – I saw that on the Daily dose feed this morning and said Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
Oh I forgot Huey was a fucking liar!
Huey was sort of throwaway fun back in the day. About as relavent as pet rock now. Hey were talking about music, you know what that means. I have to talk about Nevermore. 🙂 Jeff Loomis and Warrel Dane will be releasing more solo albums in the near future, the new Sanctuary album already has three tracks written. Nevermore is still a priority so the wait should be less than five years. 🙂
Quote the Rhettro…
Ironically I don’t listen to much Poe.
Thats IS irony! Shes hot tho. Member she had that one song? With the singing and music and chorus n stuff? Yeah what was the name of that one?
You know the one. With the stuff and the lyrics n drums n more stuff.
Seems like I remember some song like that.
Yeah I cant put my finger on it….. WOAH!!!!!! Theres a mirror in the bathroom. Please dont freak.
CP: The Raven – Alan Parsons Project

The door is locked, just you and me
Can I take you to a studio that has glass laptops
You can watch yourself, while you are casting.
So the other day I was at Fry’s electronics and the girl at the counter had the most awesome breasts. It didn’t help that she had ample cleavage showing. It took all my will power to keep eye contact with her.
(homer) Mmmm boobs (/homer)
Send her my way, please.
I think you’d like her. LOL
Must… focus…
Cant…..focus…..
And by liking her, Rhettro means you’ll like her boobs.
Ford…..Focus…
And by boobs he means personality.
They had a nice personality.
oh snap

Hang on…

Well yeah, but it wasn’t pee.
It was people! Soylent Green is people!!
I had a friend named Gene whose email address was soylentgene .
He was a people person?
Just finished making cookies. Hopefully hubby will be please.
finished lunch.
Now it’s time for FNV. Woo Hoo.
CP: I’ll Wait — Van Halen
It’s people! Bunny’s cookies are people!!
Or… They’re chocolate chip and pecan
Pecans are people too.
From the land of Pecan. On the base of Bakery Mountain
Just off the Macadamia Belt Parkway
But still north of Nathan Lane.
A bit south of Diane.
I’m a people
you’re a people
wouldn’t you like to be a people too
Going south on Diane Lane?
Too much traffic
If we’re not supposed to eat people, then why are the made of meat?
Ed asks appropriate questions.
If you dont eat your people, you cant have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you dont eat your people?
You know, J0e, I think it’d be pretty cool living next door to Bruce Campbell.
Well, it is done. We’ve signed the papers and wrote a rather large check to get us on the road to building the new house.
Congrats Ed!
Sounds cool Ed.
In keeping with the last meme, be sure that the previous owners take any sealed urns out of the basement. Those ashen footprints are a bitch to get off the ceiling.
And if the house whispers “Get out!” then DO IT!
Well, there was some sign about “Love Canal”. That won’t be a problem, will it?
No thats a good area. Its similar to the wonderful 3 Mile Island subdivision.
Doesn’t Nathan Lane lead to the Love Canal? Maybe if you dropped the letter “C”?
From C to shining C

You killed Yogi!
Smarter than the average rimshot.
He’s not called Boo Boo Bear for nothing.
So what does that say about Pooh???
Well, Eyore is obviously depressed about something.
Fun fake fact: Eyore’s real name was “Eyesore”. Which now make much more sense and makes Pooh even more of a jerk.
http://jezebel.com/5670708/
Thats good to see. Lets hope “It Gets Better” is worth a damn and not just more political diarrhea of the mouth.
I had diarrhea once, but it got better.
That stinks.

Ed – re: next door to Bruce Campbell
Sure.
If you have a moat.
and maybe a chainsaw sharpener.
… and don’t mind large breasted, “B” actresses coming and going all the time.
… did I mention “Check to see if dimensional doorways are allowed”?
I do hav hole.

Wadda wadda bing bang
Hello boys and Bunny. We just got a new HD TV, and are kinda enamored already, but are kinda disgusted with the costs associated with “free HDTV for life”.
I posted Obama’s “It Gets Better” video on either my blog or FB and said “Nice message, as long as you don’t ask or don’t tell” which I realize is . . . well, judgey. To that I say SUE ME.
Oh youll be served
Did you plug the PS3 into the HDTV yet EssBee? I think you’ll really enjoy it.
J0e,
You had me at “large breasted, “B” actresses”
The only Free HD comes from plugging in an antenna.
And the antennas (antenni?) still cost money.
I did, Rhettro!! I’m watching Legion right now, which is total meh, but big and nice. The first bluray discs we’ll check out will be Firefly, maybe tonight.
Also, Lo Pan, why did you order snow?
Cool EssBee!
My favorite part is going to be that the video above Jon Stewart’s right shoulder during TDS will no longer be cut off!
A couple of freebies on the app store today:
http://toucharcade.com/2010/10/22/freebie-friday-cubed-rally-racer-and-giant-moto/
Cubed Rally is well worth checking out (I bought that one).
Still enjoying “Soloman’s Boneyard” which was a freebie you brought to our attention some time back.
Legion = bad, bad, bad
For a moment I thought that said Lejon instead of Legion. LOL All he did was talk about his colonoscopy on FB.
That was bad too! But we like Lejon. And his colon.
Some pretty amazing work being done in Zbrush these days.

Yep, Lejon rocks and so does his “:”
So, does that mean Lejon is now one of the five people on Earth who knows how to properly use a :

So Ed … I take it you’re building?
Remind me to give you my “must have” building tips.
… but not tonight *yawn*
Goodnight Lanes
Tonight’s video theme is questionable sanity. Started with Firefly Ep 14, now watching The Dark Knight, and if I’m still awake Fight Club
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, A ClockWork Orange, Twelve Monkeys, crazy/beautiful, The Island of Dr. Moreau, Silence of the Lambs?

….and it’s bye bye to the Sony Walkman:
http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/22/sony-pulls-the-plug-on-cassette-walkmans-in-japan-makes-epic-mi/
Wow, I’m pretty surprised that Sony was still making cassette Walkmans at all. Didn’t VHS tape stop getting manufactured a few years back?
The whole “I can order the assassination of American citizens and I don’t have to explain it because that’s a security secret” kind of spoiled my appreciation for the POTUS.
Ooops, I got some politics on my shirt.
I was all a twitter over the 30th anniversary box set from Bad Religion collecting every album they’ve put out … until I got to the part about it costing $200.
Then I found out it’s all on vinyl. I haven’t had a record player in 15 years.

She wasn’t impressed, neither was my nephew, gives me hope some people won’t buy into this bullshit.

Dre sez: we enjoyed round 1 or the 9″ smurfs
smurfette’s honey sounds like a good name for a blueberry mead
and if you’re looking for volunteers … *raises hand*
From the list of smurf characters
Hugh is:
Painter Smurf is a brilliant artist and is active in most visual arts. He often wears a red jacket with a black tie, and is often seen either making a painting or a sculpture. In the cartoon, he speaks with a French accent and refers to his paintings as masterpizzas.
wait.. there is another girl smurf:
Sassette was created by the Smurflings to serve as a sister for Smurfette. Like Smurfette, Sassette was evil at first, as she was created using Gargamel’s original spell, but with a smurf-sized lump of magical blue clay. Papa Smurf used the same potion on her that he had used on Smurfette to make her a real Smurf. Sassette is a little freckled redhead girl with pigtails, and pink overalls. She calls Papa Smurf “Pappy” and Grandpa Smurf “Grandpy”. She has somewhat of a warm place in her heart for Gargamel since she was made by his spell, calls him “Pappy Gargamel,” and even goes to visit him despite Papa Smurf’s orders.
do it LostRalph
and anohter one:
Clockwork Smurfette Schtroumpfette Robot/Mecanique Cartoon
Like Clockwork Smurf, Clockwork Smurfette is a wooden robot who was built by Handy Smurf. She was made to be the female companion of Clockwork Smurf. Like her male counterpart, Clockwork Smurfette is capable of feelings and morality.
ooooo.. papa smurf had him a hottie!
Nanny Smurf (a.k.a. Granny Smurf) Mémé Schtroumpf Comics + Cartoon Susan Blu
An old flame of Grandpa Smurf’s, Nanny enters the cartoon series after being trapped inside a cursed castle for centuries. It is unclear if she is a naturally occurring female Smurf or if she was somehow created via sorcery like Smurfette and Sassette. She’s introduced in Season 8 of the series, and she owns a pet rabbit named Smoogle.
smurf her like an animal?
a naturally occurring smurf?
Do I want to know what that means?
Smurfette and Sassette were created by sorcery, because of COURSE women can’t come from anything natural or good.
*fumes*
Hugh sez: its only a cartoon babe. Give the computer back to me. BACK AWAY from the smurf wikipedia. NOW!
there is a “feral” smurf
Wild Smurf wears clothing made of leaves and he`s barefoot. He is feral and isn’t understood by the other Smurfs. He can communicate with animals and ask for their assistance. In the cartoon Christmas special, Papa Smurf says that it is Wild’s first Christmas, therefore he doesn’t understand it. He appears to be the same age as the rest of the Smurfs, which would be quite old compared to humans. It is presumed this must be the first time he’s been at the village during Christmas.
ok. wait. Hold on. Everyone stop.
Gutsy is a new Smurf character for the 2011 movie. He is described as ‘brave to a fault’ in the synopsis.
the 2011 Smurf movie?
Are you fucking kidding me? A smurf movie?
Goodnight smurfs,
I’m disappointed that there isn’t a brewer smurf or since it’s originally belgian, at least a monk smurf.
oh and Mango Smurf sounds like a perfect name for a Jack Mangan coverband.
goodnight TSH
I thought the smurf movie was Avatar?
ah, and now it’s just me and the tumbleweeds.

1) yes, and I wouldn’t have canceled my subscription for that. 2) is much more nefarious.
Completed Halo 3…yah! Halo 2 next…
You can go back to talking about the serious stuff now.
cough
BTW: You get the last laugh Essbee, local newspapers are on their final legs. For better or worse, their relevance to society has become almost non-existent.
I suspect that you will continue to be gay looong after the guy who made that endorsement has had to look for an entirely new career.
Halo Van.
Didn’t mean to ignore y….. oh look ! A shiny thing!
I know JOe, it’s a sad fact (the newspaper thing, not the me being “gay” thing). I love to hold and read a newspaper. I’m moving my paper $$ to a Denver Post subscription. I don’t know how I’ll be able to scan the police blotter now, though, to find out what the neighbors have been up to . . .
Everybody else is just Greeeeeeeen
Does this work EssBee?
http://denver.yourhub.com/Denver/stories/news/police-blotter
It does!
I have seriously been reading the Longmont police notes, though, to get the dirt on why the cops knocked on our door at 3 a.m. last Tuesday to interview us about an incident next door.
If not, here are some lovely desk blotters.

Nope, this is the one.

I do enjoy blotters of all kinds.
Currently, I’m playing Bioshock 2. The more I play, the more I realize that it is a gigantic anti-Ayn Rand screed. Which is pretty interesting. I think quite a few gamers weren’t aware of that.
What about blotto?
I’ve been known to be fond of that also.
Please tell me Tancredo…
Wait for senate tho…please tell me the other Tea Party psycho
Trancredo!!
and Ken Buck. Is he Tea Party?
Tom Tancredo….loving the crusades since 1291
http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/t/tom_tancredo.html
Oh, no Buck is strait up right wing
“You can choose who your partner is. I think birth has an influence over it, like alcoholism and some other things, but I think that basically you have a choice,” Buck said.
He also defended his handling of an alleged rape in 2005 that he declined to prosecute because he believed some of the details appeared to show the woman in question consented to the sexual encounter. Months later, he told the Greeley Tribune that “a jury could very well conclude that this is a case of buyer’s remorse.”
“buyers remorse”
Please let that sink in a bit
BUYERS REMORSE
ALCOHOLISM
… special . place . in . Hell
Between the two, Tancredo is by far the craziest.

Lo Pan – could you “hack one to pieces with a large knife” to save your life?
Every time someone posts “Dreamsnake”, a 3-second snippet of “Here I Go Again” plays in my head.
J0e – I think thats a Chinese hell…
Dreamsnake it dont dreambreak it, baby.
Sounds like the #4 band from 1988.
Well, could you at least out run it (or out run the slowest person in your group)?
… I mean the pumpkin. Not Chinese hell (the #4 band from 1988)
It depends on if the slowest person in my group is getting off the Short Bus.
Chinese Hell is an outstanding band name.

Live bands tonight Tonight!!!

We must make this happen. Can we have special guests, “Envelope of Afterbirth”?
I shall be staying indoors on halloween and ignoring the doorbell..which is easy as I don’t have a doorbell.
I do that, Van, unless Sly B is home.
Bah Humbug.
Van – I would think that would be MUCH harder to ignore a ringing doorbell when you don’t actually have one!
Especially on Halloween.
Another tip – if you unplug your land-line phone on Halloween and it rings anyway … DO NOT ANSWER IT!
Now I have that horrid song stuck in my head.

I am still alive. Been wholly unproductive these last few days thanks to a nasty bought of the crud. Finally made it to the doctor yesterday. Still have that “run over by a truck” feeling, but at least my other symptoms are finally abating.
Just got caught up scanning through the last few days. Carry on.
Innuendo aside, I’m enjoying Dreamsnake, will have to check out some more VM’s work.
I have a Star Trek novelisation done by her and not being impressed at the time.

Speaking of dreaming . . .
I’m CP: yesterday’s Fresh Air, which is an interview with Keith Richards. LOVE HIM. He just described how “I Can’t Get No Satisfaction” came to him in a dream. Terry asks, “like a sleepwalking incident?” Keith answers, “no, darling, I wasn’t walking, I was lying down.”
EssBee: lmao
Its true, Van. Americas “first come first serve” or “how hard do iI need to punch you in the face before you move” way of movie seating is indeed more better….
Dreamsicle?
I love Dreamsicles.
Dexter IS intense!!!!
Also, Soul Coughing was teh_shit.
Good morning, Doughty.
I watched yesterday’s The Event this morning. I’m so “meh” about this show. If I didn’t swoon so much for Blair Underwood, I’d stop watching.
I have to say I’m glad I live in a society where a young lesbian couple feel free to snuggle upto each other at the cinema…especially with an old hit like me sitting next to them.

My task for today: completing my Vote-By-Mail Ballot.
Like the rest of the U.S., I get to vote for Congresspeople. I don’t get to vote regarding gay rights this time. None of the nine ballot initiatives we get to vote on here in California are related to that.
We didn’t have gay rights initiatives on our ballot in Colorado this time either, Amy, but I got mine by voting against the guy who likened homosexuality to alcoholism, and against the guy who would close the Colorado borders ala 1960s Brown Scare Denver shit.
“Money shot”
Its true. We really should shut our borders to gay people. Two birds one stone!! Vote Buckredo!
I don’t even want to know what one would have to do to prove heterosexuality.
Oh, I see. I haven’t gotten to the voting-for-people section of the ballot yet; I started with the voting-for-propositions part. I’m not particularly fond of either of our candidates for governor this year.
Cool Jack I think you’ll enjoy it. 🙂
Speaking of cool music and halloween, “And the Maiden Spoke” was based on a real ghost story.
TMR: My personal favorite track on “The Obsidian Conspiracy” is “And the Maiden Spoke” I was wondering what is the meaning behind this track lyrically and was there any inspiration for that or anything?
Warrel: Yeah, actually. We recorded “This Godless Endeavor” at Andy Sneed, our producer’s place. He owns a farm in Derbyshire, which is out of London in the middle of nowhere, and it’s this huge farm and it was built in 1617 and we were staying in a guest room and Andy’s mom and Andy’s girlfriend told us stories and said don’t be surprised if you hear women talking if you hear strange things going on, because they’re okay ghosts. Ri-ight. Sure chicks, you’re all trying to make me scared and shit. But one night, sitting right in my bedroom above the kitchen downstairs, Andy’s girlfriend Tabitha told me sometimes these particular ghosts move the chairs around in the kitchen downstairs and I’m like, “Okay, whatever you say.” So I wake up one night, like, two in the morning. And I hear this creek, like a slow scratching of one of the chairs moving downstairs in the kitchen. I fucking jumped out of bed, bolted and ran down there ’cause I thought it was her fucking with me. The door was locked, I searched every room down stairs and I’m like, “Okay, somebody is fucking with me” so I went back upstairs and of course I couldn’t get back to sleep. Twenty minutes later, same goddamn thing happened, but in a different place. It was a different chair. I ran down there, and the first time, the chair was pushed in, and now, it was almost by the door and I’m like, “Okay, I think I might believe these people.” And I don’t know if there are ghosts and to this day I don’t know if they were fucking with me, they could’ve been. But that’s where the inspiration for that song came from.

All alone 🙁
Had a bubble bath. Now laying in bed (sans clothing I might add), watching the news. Have my reader beside me and my phone in my hand.
Might watch the beginning of the Calgary/Edmonton game in an hour.
According to the news Calgary has the 4th highest murder rate in Calgary. We’re actually doing well this year. And we are doing better than Edmonton which has popped up to third
They are now showing a Crimestoppers re-enactment of a guy who’s been exposing himself to young girls here in Calgary. It’s very strange watching them trying to act it out without showing anything
I really dislike the Fountain Tire commercials. They actually have the opposite effect on me in that the last place I want to take my car is there

I never understand the Score n Win. The idea is if a single player scores five times in a single game then some random Safeway shopper will get a million dollars. What do you thing the chances are they ever have, or ever will have to pay?

Bunny youre not really selling Calgary…
How about if I just give you this city instead, Lo?
The thing Calgary has going for it (besides me :happy: ) is the Falmes are,so far, doing better than the Avs :tongue:
Yea! The Leafs won one.
Bunny bazinga
What a shock. They’re fighting.
What city you give me?
Yeah I know. Avs be slidy sliding. Maybe Ill adopt the Leafs 😉
Too bad I can’t spell Flames. (Who the he’ll is the Falmes?)
GO FALMES!
GO CALRAGY FALMES!!!!
2 – 1 for the Flames, end of the first by the way
FALMES FALMES FALEMS FALMES! FALMES SOCRE A GAOL!
::P:
WHOOPS! Too fast…typing…smiley…no worky…must…reverse…thrusters..
Lo: don’t adopt the Leafs. That way dissapointment lies
The Falmes, on the other hand, are so far ahead I can’t even see them :ninja:
Lo Pan makes me simle 🙂
I hate new makidyup words. Just saw a commercial for an herbicide that protected against scalaritinia (sp?). That never existed before. Where did it come from? Why now? Silly new plant diseases.
(already googled it so don’t need to give me a link. Just grumping for the sake is it)
Grumpity grump
The commercial told me I’m supposed to tell the world I’ll never give up joy for practicality. I figured telling Deadpan is close enough
Yeah, but I’m cute when I’m grumpy so it’s ok, ditto

Overheard at a hockey game, “difficult to do on the back end with that much power.”
Is this a hockey game or a Porno I’m watching?
Calgary scores again
Leafs and smiles!!!!!! My work is done….
Woosh
With the way they’re playing, I’m having a lot of trouble believing Edmonton is on the power play
Calgary made three shots on goal, edmonton made one on that last Edmonton power play
When someone “draws a penalty” do you think they use watercolours or acrylics?
Flames just scored their second short handed goal in the game. Really Edmonton?
Well deadpan, I’m calling it a night. At 4 – 1, if the Flames lose now than they deserve the loss
Night Panites

I was reading something earlier that said our eyes start to glow in the dark as we age. Some sort of buildup that accumulates in our eyes. But now I can’t seem to find any mention of this, so I’m left wondering if I misunderstood or if the information was just misleading.
That would be new to me NS. And as someone who has loked after an elderly relative, can’t say I noticed anything like that.

Lipofuscin – seems to build up in the body as we age, including in age spots and in our retinas. It apparently fluoresces, rather than “glows-in-the-dark.”
Well, that wasn’t as exciting as I’d hoped.
And, another fine morning Deadpan land.
Back in the 80’s I thought we were all supposed to get ready to glow in the dark.
“Lipofuscin” ??
I thought it was the metaclorins.
“Back in the 80’s I thought we were all supposed to get ready to glow in the dark.”
I seem to vaguely remember glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.
… of course, it was long ago and it was far away
and it was so much better than it is today
Yes.

My vet always writes me a novel whenever my cat sees her. After reading her multi-page write up, it turns out I’m going to have to give my cat weekly vitamin b shots. Added to the other meds I give her, at some point she’s not going to want to get near me.
On a side note, her eyes glow in the dark :happy:
We have two cats, one very old. We SHOULD take her to the vet and figure out what to do to med-wise for her, but she absolutely freaks when she has to go.
EssBee, my cat hates going to the vet too. We have to sedate her before she goes (the vet supplies sedatives) and even then, it’s not good.
Really? That’s interesting. We’ll have to look into that next time.
Sometimes work is so hard.
Morning, Pan.
Mom is cleaning the oven today. Getting out of the house and camping out at Starbucks so I don’t have to breathe the ash smell while I’m trying to study.
J0e is doubly blessed.
It was interesting to carve pumpkins last night, one day after re-watching Inglourious Basterds.
I’m nit carving a pumpkin. Not decorating the house. The only reason we do the candy thing is because I buy a whole bunch, knowing we only get about a half dozen kids. Then we eat the rest it I bake with it (Smartie cookies are teh yum)
“I’m nit carving a pumpkin. Not”
Most people don’t know how hard this really is.

Is the “It Gets Better” thing open to people like us? Maybe we should make something.
I think so, Jack. There are some str8 folks who’ve done videos (Sara Silverman, and Jewel – but she might be bisexual). Sly B and I are going to do one soon, I think, or at least I am, and would be happy to post it as a Deadpan video if the community decides to do something.
I’m struggling with something in my work life re: this. My company is at the forefront of bully-prevention and I want to ask them to get into this, but for some reason hesitate. hmm . . .

CP: Bela Lugosi’s Dead — Bauhaus
*sigh*
As I Christian, I want to state that I FEAR the likes of Odonnell and these other extremists who are trying to support a government take over of Religious worship.
One only has to look at what happened to religious worship in NAZI Germany to see an example of NO separation of church and state. Yes, everyone knows what they did to the Jews … but few know about the murders and persecution that CHRISTIAN church goers underwent if they didn’t agree to tow the line for the Nazis. They were actually given OFFICIAL prayers and hymns, direct from the Government.
This is where this anti-separation bunch is trying to take us. I can only assume that the majority of Christians remain silent about this because they are either already AFRAID of this bunch of bullies … or they foolishly believe that it is THEIR own personal beliefs that will become the official legal doctrine of the land.
The horror.
I’m not exactly sure what O’Donnell and her ilk’s motivation are. What is it that they are trying to accomplish? Separation of church and state allows us many benefits, primary among them to independently choose our religious path based on our own judgment and not have it dictated to us via law. It allows us to participate in a pluralistic society regardless of our own personal points of view. Do they not understand that the government not having an opinion on their religion actually helps it flourish?
Here are some of the words in your post that might be offensive to O’Donnel and ilk:
independently
choose
judgment
not have it dictated
pluralistic
society
opinion
That’s extremely funny and sad at the sametime EssBee.
You’re so right, JOe.
Your first mistake is in believing there to be any logical thought system to the O’Donnell lunatic agenda.
Well, motivation could be logical, illogical or thoughtlessly observed. I suspect the the third category for her, which there is no defence against.
I’ll pay a $1000 to the person that shows me where in the Constitution, lunatics are barred from office.
The scary thing for me is that the Colorado guy who also thinks separation of church & state is a bad idea IS WINNING in most polls. This is the same guy Lo Pan talked about earlier in the week who 1) refused to prosecute a rape case because to him it sounded like “buyers remorse” and 2) compared homosexuality to alcoholism on Meet The Press recently.
That is scary.

Why is it assumed all priests have Irish accents? Although, in this case, Ron Pearlman has sort of an Irish accent…occasionally
I’ve actually watched that one TEB.

I played it again earlier this year and couldn’t get back to the end.

Laugh for today: more ducks died (approx 350) on a tailings pond (that’s not the funny part). The local news asked for people to write in their comments on the deaths. They broadcast two. One asked about a net covering over the ponds. The other…
“come on, they’re just ducks. You’re putting too much value on their lives. It’s not like they’re people”
That made me laugh, in a sad kind of way
Hubby texted me saying he’s “tipsy”, doing wine tastings on an empty stomach. I told him he didn’t have to try everything they had. I dint thing he understood.
He says they are now here

No wonder he’s drunk
And how is wine tasting relevant to the education of high school students? Things must really be different in Canada. . .
I think the relationship is, once you finish a day teaching middle school kids you need alcohol 😉
Actually, I think the conference doesn’t actually start until tomorrow. They did tour a school this morning and are now doing the touristy stuff set up by the organizers for the rest of the day
