The Idiot

we found it in our local Hollywood videos... so i figure they might have it in blockbuster network

it's worth watching. not my #1 movie ever (i'd hesitate to give out that title and if i did it would be something cheesy like Pride and Prejudice with Lawrence Olivier and Greer Garson (1940) - not an Amigo flick I hazard to say).

I'll give it more thought though.

Not true.

I like all kinds of movies.

Cinema Paradiso????

Women of the dunes????

Ooooh. I loooooved Cinema Paradiso. Loved loved loved. Gotta see it again. Kinda like the Central Station...which I haven't seen for a few years either.

Hey, there's some good Czech ones to check out, too. Like United We Fall or the Dark Blue World... both are about the WWII, and are full of the typical Czech dark, cynical humor...

I'll check'em out. I'll see if they have them in the BB library.

they will, they will. and you'll see a bit of the country that i'm from. Sigh.

It is done then.

Good night, Elvis. (still thinking about that move you promised on the previous page). I'm off to bed 'early' today. Sooo tired after a weekend, why is it always so?

Because you were feeding the weasel all weekend.

i was... what? my foreign brain is overheating from imagining all sorts of possible things that could mean.

That means you were out feeding your vice.

drinking and having fun....filling the void,etc,etc.

that's ok, the brain does that often anyway. it's a cheap foreign model.

When I say "you" I don't mean you, I mean anybody, me, you, The pope, Santa clause, that feeds their weasel.

Here is a picture of a weasel.

how did he come to have such a bad rep? what did he do to represent the Vice?

We needed a cute face for vice. But at the same time Mischievous.

"I don't deserve this award, but I have arthritis and I don't deserve that either."

-Jack Benny (1894 - 1974)

hear hear.

Last three (3!) times that I used an ATM, I forgot my card in it. Every single time. Each time some good soul (with body attached to it) races after me and hands me my card. I don't deserve it. I think I am being rewarded for absent mindedness and stupidity. That's just not fair.

I lik e living inn Xanadu i take3 quarters aday. Weeeeeee

Xanadu By RUSH


To seek the sacred river alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honey dew
And drink the milk of paradise....

I had heard the whispered tales
Of immortality
The deepest mystery
From an ancient book. I took a clue (whole ladder and scaled it to Xanadu, XANADU!)
I scaled the frozen mountain tops
Of eastern lands unknown
Time and man alone
Searching for the lost ---- xanadu (searching for my frigginn xanex in the sofa while eating ice cream)

Xanadu ---- to stand within the pleasure dome
Decreed by kubla khan
To taste anew the fruits of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honey dew
And drink the milk of paradise

A thousand years have come and gone
But time has passed me by (because i'm loaded on Xanex)

Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in an everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end
Weary of the night
Praying for the light
Prison of the lost ---- xanadu

Xanadu ---- held within the pleasure dome
Decreed by kubla khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honey dew
And drunk the milk of paradise (white russian)
More than paradise

Boobahs are trying to steal my Xanex

What rolls down stairs alone or in pairs
Rolls over your neighbor's dog?
What's great for a snack and fits on your back?
It's Log, Log, Log!

It's Log, Log, it's big, it's heavy, it's wood.
It's Log, Log, it's better than bad, it's good!
Everyone wants a log! You're gonna love it, Log!
Come on and get your log! Everyone needs a Log!

And one more, for good measure:


The Hangin' Song

C'mon everbody! Let's have a hoedown!

Oh, Lord loves a hangin'.
That's why He gave us necks.
It tightens up our vocal cords
And loosens up our pecs.

So if you are a horse theif
And guilty to the bone,
Go ahead and blame a friend
And you won't hang alone.

It may be hard to swaller,
But you'll be three feet taller.
It's a dandy way to entertain your friends.

You say you are a villain,
But can't abide by killin';
Go ahead a steal yourself a horse.

Oh, Lord loves a hangin'.
And so do we, by heck;
So get yerself a lasso
And decorate your neck.

Oh, we is awful ignorant
And uglier 'n sin;
So go ahead 'n cut us down
And hang us all again,

Hangin' that is. Swing a spell...

I just misstook Ireland for Australia in another thread. I don't think anybody saw.
