Jewel-encrusted Mr. Potato Head

You LA folks can go visit with JEMPH in person (He's in the Beverly Hills Neiman Marcus). Maybe the appropriate response is to bow down and worship him....

From the Snakes on a Plane replica sale on eBay:

Q: Are these Snakes, as Samuel L. Jackson so elequently put it, truly motherf--cking?

A: I can't really directly comment on the nature of these snakes because of an on-going legal battle between the 'Snakes' and myself. What I can say is this 'These REPTILES appear to be bad a-- MO FO's, and they're ON THE PLANE!'... But then again, I can't comment.

JZ, isn't it way too early for you to be up?

(Also, I've been writing for an Israeli tv site something about MSCL (and "thirtysomething") and it's making me think about you.)

Hi Nilly! You don't go into Bitches much, so I should tell you too; I'm in luv! I think. And there are other Bitches finding people too. Significant others are the new black!

Spring, when a young man's fancy turns to significant others...

Oh, billytea! So happy for you! Details, please!

there are other Bitches finding people too

Oh, who? I mean, if it's OK to post about it here.

Significant others are the new black!

So you're saying that my lack of presence in Bitches is why I'm still single? Hmm, that would be really difficult to explain to my mom.

Later! For now I must go to bed. But she's very nice, and from Shanghai originally.

I fear so, he said, shaking his head sadly in that manner that suggests he always expected it would come to this.

G'night!

Night, billytea!

JZ, isn't it way too early for you to be up?

Well, it would be, except that I conked out early last night -- asleep by 9:30 -- so I have actually had my full 8 hours.

I'd love to read anything you write about MSCL and thirtysomething.

So you're saying that my lack of presence in Bitches is why I'm still single? Hmm, that would be really difficult to explain to my mom.

I personally attribute it to either (a) clearly all the men in your city are terminally stupid, because surely anyone with half a brain would see your amazing heart and fall in love with you, or (b) nobody has set you up on a blind date with a pirate.

I don't know that either of these would be any easier to explain to your mom, though.

I conked out early last night

So the place is all quiet because everybody else is still sleeping, and the world just starts waking up? I love being awake, on my own, for no reason (especially on the weekend) on such an hour.

I'd love to read anything you write about MSCL and thirtysomething.

Oh, thank you! Maybe once I'm finished with it, I'll translate it to English for you? It will be a good exercise in translation, right?

I loved each and every time I read something you had written about MSCL. You're completely connected, in my mind, with this show now. Not unlike erika and H:LotS.

[Edit:

(a) clearly all the men in your city are terminally stupid, because surely anyone with half a brain would see your amazing heart and fall in love with you, or (b) nobody has set you up on a blind date with a pirate.

Well, you're a sweetheart, but not only have I gone on blind dates with men from all over Israel (well, considering how small Israel is when compared to the USA, I guess you can call it USA-standards-city), none of them was a pirate. Also, considering the downloading of TV shows' episode off the internet, and my as-yet lack of submition to this sort of piracy, the whole blind-date-with-a-pirate thing doesn't seem as far off as it used to.

As for my mom, well, I think she's at the point she would accept even a pirate. Maybe even with the eyepatch, the wooden leg and the "arrrr"s. She would anyway prefer that to any explanation regarding singlehood, no matter how hard it may be to introduce him to family and friends.]
