Went to the Colorado Ren Fair today and was actually disappointed. I remember much more improv and "street characters". K-Bug did get the heckling jester with a tomato to the head (yeah softball skills). But overall, just wasn't as fun as I remember it being in the past.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How failed, beth? Unless the rice is hard or is extra mooshey, failed rice pudding probably still tastes okay.
Ryan Reynolds to play Green Lantern. Somehow, I can't quite see that. I've never seen Reynolds do anything non-flip, and GL's not overly flip.
Then again, the other project it lists for him in that article sounds straight.

ita, I think he'll be able to do it. I saw his movie with Sandra Bullock, The Proposal and he was very much the straight man with none of the smart alecky humor that I might have expected. He was far more dry and sarcastic if anything.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I only had nonfat milk -- so it isn't very pudding like -- tasty however.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Clearly, someone has seen Semi-Homemade and taken it to its logical and horrifying conclusion.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just got back from Chinatown. Ate at a Chinese restaurant (duh) that had one of those menus with pictures of the various dishes. One that caught my eye was the deep-fried pigeon. It was a whole fucking pigeon, with the head and everything! OK, they removed the feathers and feet and presumably the innards, but still....
You know, I think I'd have to be drunk and have lost a bet in order to eat deep-fried pigeon. Or perhaps drunk and trying to impress a girl.
Oh, and the worst t-shirt I saw on the train: It was a cartoon guy smiling and holding up a sign that said, "Free Gas!" The cartoon guy was farting. Somehow this guy had a girlfriend.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm watching a televised production of Camelot from last year, which I've had on tape since before we moved. It's...not very good. Gabriel Byrne can't sing, Mordred is a gay goth, and I am forewarned that Fran Drescher appears as Morgan LeFay.

To be fair, Richard Harris couldn't really sing, either. But the rest of it sounds pretty appalling.

Lancelot is fantastic, and Marin Mazzie is playing Guinevere. But. Why do they cast people who can't sing, especially in a concert version?
