Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The Aristocrats isn't until 4:30! That so jiggers my plans.

I have music on my hands. A grenade was thrown into the CD storage at krav. This counts as mildly weird, but at least it was an un-juiced grenade, that only clipped one CD. But the metallic-optic covering is all over my hands like glitter on steroids from the cleanup.

Pink bike.

Here you can see the martini motif

There's a bike like that in The Wedding Crashers.

Which means she totally needs it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I meant to see Wedding Crashers today, but now I'm too droopy! Darn it.

How technologically ridiculous am I that I just used Google Earth to find out where, exactly, the track is in the park I was at earlier because I forgot to look for it in person?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Did someone post a link to a picture of the cute bike basket (complete with plastic flowers) that David Letterman gave to Lance Armstrong? [link]

That alphabet. It’s been around a long time, and I, for one, have some complaints. Don’t you think it’s time for a redesign? I mean, the thing’s not exactly “fresh” anymore, is it?

I totally want the pink martini bike.

Up with the sun

(unplayed songs alpha by title, so it's all Guy/Nellie McKay/Journey/Kanye West).

Springboarding from that, what is with the Journey rediscovery lately? "Don't Stop Believing" was at #9 on iTunes last time I looked. Did someone use it in an ad or something?

And I love JZ's potential bike, though I'd worry about the no-gears thing for ridng it in such a hilly city.

I dunno. That is weird -- I just downloaded that very song from someplace (maybe audiography on livejournal?) recently myself.

OK, so how do you get hot pepper juice off your hands? Soap and water is a no go.

Edit: And after googling, I tried the thing that was least scary and most readily available, which was vegetable oil, and it totally helped. Huh.
