Nighthawk

I've been listening to a lot of oldies lately. I listened to my Joe Meek box set and just kind of kept with that feel. It's interesting that a lot of songs about love feature a girl who is 16. Like, specifically mentioned as being 16. I've always said that should be the universal age of consent, and this supports it. It's also interesting that in this climate of 16 year old love, you get Gary Puckett's "Young Girl", which is about a girl who is much too young. If 16 isn't too young, much too young is probably south of 14. Sick!

I disagree. James Taylor is an artist who I never liked until maybe a year or so ago, then he started to kind of grow on me. This came, I think, at least partially from the muzak where I was working at the time. They played 8 Elton John songs, the record, but James Taylor was in second place with 6.

Jaws is my third favorite movie. That's interesting about him being offered the lead in Deer Hunter. I wonder how that would have turned out...

You don't have to defend yourself. It's a nice thing to do.

Black people are actually brown.

Stop saying "internet wrestling board" or variations thereof! You don't need to specify that it's on the internet. That actually makes it much more effective and important than a non internet message board, ie a bulletin board. Like, with pins. But anyway, I can understand why he'd post the thread. If you believe prayer does something, it's beneficial to get the message out any way you can. Sadly, prayer does nothing. God is dead and we're alone.

But you know, I spent a large part of my childhood in rural Illinois, and lived in backwoods Kentucky for a while too, and I never saw some fucking hot dog gravy. Fried bolonga, sure. Hamburger Helper, Little Debby, Spaghetti-O's on spaghetti, syrup sandwiches, stirring the Kool Aid with your arm... real tomato ketchup, Eddie? Sure, I've experienced all of that. And that's what I liked. Even the aforementioned ketchup on spaghetti... and on potato chips. I developed a reputation as a picky eater when I was a kid, but it was only because everything was so terrible. Man, I have to get back in touch with my roots. I could write a book. There's pictures of me when I was like four taking a bath in the sink.

I actually like Monkeybone.

You're thinking of "The Pusher"? "Pusherman" is by Curtis Mayfield. One of my absolute favorite songs, that is.

Joe Dirt is just some middle of the road crap in my opinion, I don't find it particularly horrible. The one part I appreciated was him having Jaime Pressley say that she was his sister while they were having sex. I've tried that with girls. It's dirty!

We're soulmates, buddy.

Men be all acting like zombies at the mall.

Others are probably as big an asshole as you, but they also have redeeming qualities. You're just pure evil. Like me. Except I balance it out by being gay.

You know, I haven't seen the Zilla movie since it was in theaters. I might want to revisit that. I do remember a couple of nice scenes amid the suck. Mostly stuff where he was underwater and you couldn't really see him. I might like it now. After all, Independence Day ended up being one of my favorite movies to watch. Oh, and regarding luke-o's question: most of the schlocky Godzilla pictures are cheap as shit on dvd. Just snap them up, it's not even really a loss if they eventually put out something better. The original Gojira has a nice dvd release that you definitely want, although I'm not sure how you being in a different region affects that.

I had an desire to respond to that thread with *unzips pants*, but when I saw that you, Jon, probably the biggest asshole here, didn't make a joke, I decided it would just be too far. I was pleased to see that Leena actually did post that, though, only for it to be deleted. Seeing that was the first benefit of my new modship.

DIY taken to the extreme. You just completely go off the grid as far as possible. No taxes, no income, you subsist on found objects and communal living. Sort of nomadic, but music is a bigger part of it. Some are straight edge, but drugs and booze often play a big role. These are the guys always giving me free drugs because of my GG Allin tattoo. He's kind of a patron saint of the ideology.

It's not uncommon at all. I've met a few beggars who make not quite that much, but more than me. Here in San Francisco, the line is often blurred between beggars and street performers, cause there's lots of both. Squatters, crust punks, junkies, what have you... basically anyone who you might see on the street and ask for money, there's tons of them here. And some of them make a lot. I've seen some outright liars, too. Like this one woman who dressed in rags and brought her young kids out with her and said they were starving. She actually had a decent home and was provided for by her working husband. But the scheme worked.

Anything by Steppenwolf.

A 12oz can of Sprite will win you a belching contest.

Give her my number, though. I thrive on girls like this.

From where we stand now, Cloverfield could pretty much fuck Godzilla up. (Is that really the monster's permanent name? ... Cloverfield?) He's way more agile, and he's got the reach. The X factor is magical powers, like Godzilla's radiation breath. Cloverfield basically has huge arms, and that's it. That really gives Godzilla the huge advantage over anything. He'll breath on you, and even if you win, you'll die of cancer while Godzilla rests up at the bottom of the ocean. I'd like to see them address that: Godzilla's mere presence gives you a fatal illness. The Cloverfield parasites approach that, that whole "kill you just by existing" thing.

I'm disappointed with Twix. They remain my favorite candy bar, but I don't like what they've done with the "new" peanut butter Twix. It's the same as the old one, but now with a chocolate cookie. Not as good as the original peanut butter Twix. Change not needed.

I make it a point to buy porn at the airport, but I wouldn't at a convenience store.

Yes, while the dual ending story is very popular, I've heard it debunked from numerous sources. I think if such a version existed, it would be readily available by now. Basically, the Japanese version is slightly more ambiguous, as it's speculated that Godzilla might still be alive (shades of Cloverfield again).
