I had a pretty good Saturday. I slept in, had a bizarro dream, later when I was awake, re-filled my allergy prescription, had the free corn at Corn Fest, and a funnel cake and a lemon shakeup, watched horse racing on tv, went back to Corn Fest for frozen custard and a hummous pita sandwich and came home to watch dvds and phone my friends.
None of it means a damn thing.

What up, gangstas.
I can't remember how I found out about this place, but I've been lurking here a longish while. Just in case you were thinking about it, there's no need for everyone to waste a post saying hi or welcome or something.
One day I will have the skills to convey just how boring today was, but until then, I'll just say that I would have gladly watched the Jude Law Alfie had I the option.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hi JamesK!
Um... you're not my brother, are you?

Well, I actually checked your profile to make sure, but no.
The K is for Kimbell, by the way.

Nothing like calling the cops to report gunfire on your street and have them put you on hold for 4 minutes. By the time I got to report it all the kids (a big gang of them, like 30 or so) had all split.
That's the biggest thing I've ever seen on my street, after 5 years here. Yoiks.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yoiks indeed, Consuela. I'm glad you're okay.

You know, I wasn't scared at all. But it was a big gang of kids, most of them boys in those hugeass white t-shirts (which make them very easy to spot in the darkness!), all gathered about half a block down the street. Dunno what was going on. Still no cops that I can see.
Guess I'll go watch some Dr. Who.

JamesK you've rolled us over into the 1700s. (Not the century, just Buffista membership). Good job with the odomotering.
Also...Fuck the Yankees! fuckers scoring 5 in the ninth to stay even in the wild card fuckwads
In other news: I'm enjoying Slings and Arrows. I recommend it to all the theater folk hereabout.
More criticism: I've watched two eps of Undeclared. Entertaining but not Freaks and Geeks (so far). Also, S2 of Dead Like Me is not generating a lot of traction so far. What are they doing? Where are they going? I got nothing. (Or possibly, they got nothing. We'll see.)

Connie! Keep your head down. And keep your dog's head down there with you while you're at it. Did you see that they want to build the new A's stadium near Fruitvale?

Silence means security silence means approval
Fuck the Yankees!
I could not agree more, but they were playing the Royals....

I saw the initial renderings of the proposed stadium, and it looked like they took parts of a bunch of other stadiums (Fenway, Camden Yards, Arlington, Safeco) and did a mashup. It didn't look all that good.
Katrina is becoming a monster Cat. 4. And I'm torn between sympathy for everyone in the path (or people with relatives/friends in the path) and my Okie-boy weather geekness going, "COOL! MEGA-HURRICANE!"
