Linktopia

MNSpeak links to an annual list of banned words/phrases by Lake Superior State. #1 on their list - "perfect storm". I am vindicated.

Luke Francl at Just Looking, who hopefully got his Code Freeze '08 registration figured out, links to a flow chart on bacon. This correlates very strongly with my life. I believe it may govern my friend Dan'l's life. Certain robots can also use this flow chart effectively.

Eryn asked that Cinderella be added to our Netflix list for her. I wasn't sure if she meant the Disney verison, or this version - Cinderella 2000: "Fast-forward to the year 2047, where the Fornication Police have forbidden any risqué rendezvous among earthlings. But laws were meant to be broken, reasons sexy Cindy, who'll stop at nothing to snag a hunky prince. Fighting for their frisky rights, Cindy (Catherine Erhardt) and her lover must combat the wicked ruler responsible for the sexual oppression in this erotically charged sci-fi fairy tale from master of exploitation cinema Al Adamson."

I explained this to Tall Brad today, but Ming and Mean Mr. Mustard missed it as they didn't go to lunch. I told Pooteewheet I have poker on Friday at Brad's. She asked how often I played, because I often miss it. I said, about once a month. Although I thought it might be just a little more often, because I was pretty sure there were two days during one month. Maybe it was every 28 days. To which she responded, now that Brad's married, does he have to play poker on his wife's cycle? Ouch...burn.

As I explained to Scooter, I could play once every couple of weeks. I know that most of the other guys wives wouldn't allow them, so really we are playing around their cycles.

I was disappointed to see "it is what it is." Why? Because when I run into an unsolvable issue, I make myself feel better by saying it.

Can't figure out how to get your car brakes back on? "It is what it is."

Trouble with a finance question? "It is what it is."

Hehe, you guys have a poker cycle, and apparently you've been playing together enough that you're now all on the same cycle. I suppose that's to be expected....

By the way kudos to your wife on a kickass burn :)

I forgot to ask, why is Cinderella 2000 named Cinderella 2000? Shouldn't it have been named Cinderella 2047? That's just sloppy movie titling if you ask me....
