Swouncing

I feel like I should be extra careful with my spelling and punctuation now. I can't use under-education as an excuse anymore... Idiocy still works though, right?

Snerk. Also, belated congratulations!

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I'm so pissed off that they're going to stop showing Arrested Development and Scrubs together three nights a week, despite all the good press both shows have been getting lately.

Well, they've already started screwing with the broadcast. AD is only scheduled for Tue 11pm and Thur 10:30pm and Scrubs for Thur 11pm. Of course, Ten isn't much better. They made a big fuss about their Sat night line up but that lasted a couple of weeks and then Monk, Hack and The Handler disappeared. At least they're still showing The Shield, NYPD Blue and Robbery Homicide Division.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Congrats, Jars!

Thanks to all for the congratulations!

Glad it all worked out in the end SA.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Has anyone seen a commercial for Cadbury Favourites, that has a lad standing in the middle of a salt pan, suddenly being confronted by hundreds of people wanting one of his lollies? It's been around for a couple of years at least and they've just started showing it again.

I've probably been sucking on the crack pipe too much but I'm convinced the lad is Thomas "Andrew" Lenk. At the very least, the actor resembles him.

To every idea a shelf...

I'm fairly sure it actually is Tom Lenk. So if you're smoking crack it is the Crack of Unexpected Correctness.

Salt pan? Lollies? You Brits.

Okay, I know what a lolly is, of course, but what's a salt pan?

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

Brits?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Heh. Emlah and jimi are Aussies, and I remember seeing that commercial when I was in Australia. It's definitely Tom Lenk.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

what's a salt pan?

wikipedia entry: [link]

"Salt pan" is the proper geological term, but Americans usually call them salt flats -- like the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, where they do the land speed records. Remember the first part of "Buckaroo Banzai"?
