It has happened. I have become totally addicted to Harry Potter. I finished the movies and have been reading the books, one after another. I bought the sixth and seventh books Friday night and by Sunday afternoon I had finished the sixth and started on the seventh. I still maintain my position that JK Rowling isn't a particularly good writer, per se. But I will say this. Her character development is damn good, and she certainly is able to pack in a whoooooole lot of material into each book. In my stories I always struggle to have things, you know,...

For this, I blame everyone and thing but myself. Obviously I am not culpable. Also, I am sending out googledoc invites for my Pebbleman short story to interested parties. I have completely stalled on writing it, for which I blame my lack of computer at work where I did a lot of writing in my off moments. So I am sending out invites for two purposes. 1. it is the best thing I've ever written so I want people to see it. 2. I need people who's opinion I respect to...

A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says?

I would say that Blue is 10 times cooler in person but that just wouldn't be true. Blue's coolness factor, in fact, goes to 11. She goes to 11. I am simply not worthy. 2. Blue's husband must love Blue very, very, very......very much. He too, is more awesome than we can handle. 3. Larriken, in addition to totally looking like a professor I knew in graduate school, is a cool dude DESPITE THE FRICKEN PUNS. You punny maniac. 4. Taco and Coyote are terrible....terrible influences on me. I am a shy, quiet, reserved person, damnit! But Taco hands me his...

It is as follows: "You can put a tuxedo on a monkey but he won't play Moon River" I have no idea what it means, but I am dead certain that some time in my life I will encounter the perfect situation to use this euphamism. And when that happens, I will be ready. http://fett.blogdrive.com/comments?id=95 http://fett.blogdrive.com/archive/94.html Tue, 16 Oct 2007 18:47:13 GMT Not only is the song longingly haunting, but it has probably the best name of any song ever. Who cares it's from a mostly gospel artist, the song kicks ass. "When Leadbelly Walked the River Like Christ" by William Lee Ellis Today is an emo day. Feeling lonely today. Feeling...isolated. Ah well. So it goes. So it goes. So it goes. http://fett.blogdrive.com/comments?id=94 http://fett.blogdrive.com/archive/93.html Mon, 15 Oct 2007 20:17:43 GMT So, in the past week or so I have once again done something I swore I would never do. This is becoming a habit. First, I swore I'd never start drinking coffee. Then I went to a conference in New Orleans and, well, let's just say that the Starbucks at the convention center saved my butt a couple of times. Then I swore I'd never take my warrior PvP'ing in WoW. But lo and behold a month or so ago I got a Gorehowl, speced MS and went pwning horde. And you know what? I liked it. It was the only character I have ever PvP'd with that I actually stood a fighting chance against most people I...

Like, younger than me. But she handled herself very professionally so it was all good. Poor woman, she had to inspect my rectum, and frankly, I think she got the worse end of it (budum ching). Anyways, she's doing the basic checkup, listening to me breathe, asking me questions, etc. She asks, "ever feel your heart racing? Shortness or lack of breath?" Basically asking if I ever get panic attacks. My response? "Not since I graduated." Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week. Try the veal. If she...

I've only got two ideas so far. Honest Injun Tobacco-flavored Condoms (now with more caffeine!) The Smiling Jew Gold-plated Dildo I need more ideas. http://fett.blogdrive.com/comments?id=91
