I kind of like the Spring clothes this year, lots of flowy skirts and blouses in cuts that look good on me.

And so want Bravo to bump the QE spinoff for The Jilli Show. (ding dong) "I'm your Fairy Gothmother."
This would be cool, and I also want a goth makeover. I already have the extra pale skin.
Teppy makes a foamy goth.
I'm thinking 1950s sexpot red.
Plei, do you have a good suggestion of who makes this color? Preferably one that doesn't wipe off or smudge too easily.
Aww, Teppy, look what's happening at the Super Deco Egyptian Theater in LA tomorrow. That's right. Gendy Tartakovsky tribute with Samurai Jack on the big big screen.
Tep, I'm so with you only substitute "Connecticut" for "Ohio". Maaaaaaan....
Ohio SUCKS.
Wait, I thought that was
you.
Or maybe Lee. I forget.
Okay, actually it's a two-night thing, on Friday and Saturday. In other words - so much time for you to fly in and attend!
Oooh, and Jilli on this coming Sunday:

Roland West Tribute
Director Roland West (1887 – 1952) remains one of the most mysterious of the early 20th century filmmakers, a brilliantly original visual stylist given to fits of Gothic splendor, Germanic-influenced expressionism and, at times, downright avant-garde mise-en-scene. His career was all-too-brief, beginning in the mid-teens and ending in the early Thirties – but he created a number of dark, glittering jewels during that short period. We’re pleased to be able to present this one night tribute to an underrated, pioneering movie master, with two of his finest:
Double Feature:
THE BAT WHISPERS, 1930, Milestone Films, 82 min. Director Roland West’s sound remake of his earlier success, THE BAT, this time starring Una Merkel and Chester Morris, in the creepy story of a masked killer terrorizing an old mansion. West shot two versions of the film simultaneously, one in standard 1:33 aspect ratio and one in an experimental wide-screen format. The UCLA Film & Television Archive lovingly restored both versions and we'll be showing the more rarely-screened wide-screen print!
ALIBI, 1929, Douris Corp., 90 min. Director Roland West's crime film about unredeemed gangster Chester Morris illustrates his innovative use of the then-new medium of sound, plus his baroque visuals that were as much influenced by German expressionism as avant-garde experimentation. With art direction by William Cameron Menzies (GONE WITH THE WIND). An Egyptian Theatre Exclusive!
Followed by a film noir series
Susan, strength and health to you're family.
askye, I'm glad your dad got help so quickly and I hope he recovers well. I'm a bad, bad person, though. I felt bad because you've been trying so hard to connect with your father and do things with him. At the same time, a tiny little part of my brain thought, "At least it wasn't when he was watching Muppet bondage."
Not to be a downer, but I am a goth, and the son of a mortician (the father I don't talk to) and a psych nurse (a lesbian I do speak to) [...]
You're no downer. You might just be the most buffista Buffista, ever.
I think I've absorbed all the ookiness of That Age for a lot of people, so the PTB can just leave off, m'kay? They can just put down the age-related syndromes and step away from peoples' loved-ones.
We've been threatening the universe for a couple of years, now. The last time we gave it fair warning, it didn't even bother to cover its mouth, as it yawned at us.

Yes, frankly, threatening to kick the universe's ass is a bit of fluffed up feathers considering our foot does not reach The Ass Universale.
IBM announces assistive mouse that cancels out hand tremors
WTF? It only comes with PS/2 connectors. [link]
So IBM forgot that we've been USB for several years now? Not sure why they wouldn't have a USB connector already, rather than "under development." Weird.
