Kor Qel Droma

I'm playing a quiet, conservative game of online poker tonight. The first break just hit, and I managed to triple my chips to a whopping 4500 on the last hand before the stop. I've won all of three hands and seem to be cursed by low pairs, like 4s or 7s. And I lost with a pair of Kings Gimme a break already!

Blue Rodeo - Rose Colored Glasses

Catchy isn't it, DD? Todd Rundgren - Bang On The Drums All Day

On my way to the store I heard Long Cool Woman ( In A Black Dress) by the Hollies. Great song. Then on the back way the local radio station followed it with 'Self Esteem' by the Offspring.

I just crapped out of a poker tourney in 137th place. There were over 2000 people in the thing and I just blew 55 of my 60K in my second to last hand. But I did double my entry fee, plus change.

Veruca Salt - Volcano Girls

Billy Joel - sometimes brilliant, sometimes boring, that's Billy Joel

Nah, DD, you make your own luck most of the time, I believe. Karma on the other hand... I'm thinking that next time I go to the courthouse I should only have two hoots instead of four. That place is confusing! And there are cops everywhere!

I think I better go pay my speeding ticket today before a warrant is issued in my name tommorow.

After watching V For Vendetta I'm thinking of the time my buddy and I walked the streets of London.

I have no clue what Jags just said, but I enjoy the hockey games. And I have a vicous left hook in Fight Night Round 2. And Paul Phoenix is my favorite Tekken character. But sometimes I like Lei Wulong. Or Anna Williams as well. Sometimes Armor King is fun. King notsomuch. Jin's okay but boring. Yoshimitsu is a blast. Plus you can't forget Marshall Law and his somersault press.

V For Vendetta. I didn't really have any expectations going in to this one. I want to call it a great film, but I think really good is a better choice. I loved the Count Of Monte Cristo references. Revenge for teh win!

So I can bypass the PA system and have phone calls wired right..into..my..brain.

Ladies and genitals, ze hot plate:

Hell, we even had a thread dedicated to that video. Right now I'm debating whether or not to wait until big brother is over before I start watching V for Vendetta. Or should I watch it first and then catch the later showing of the tv show instead.

Is the girl on the right the bass player?

Bloc Party - Banquet I absolutely adore the drums and rythym guitar in this song.

'Hot Plate' is a better description than 'heated melon wrapping table'. There is an element covered by a thin piece of something with a large plate in front. The plastic is fed up from underneath. You set whatever melon on the plate, wrap the plastic, then pull it towards you and melt the plastic together on the element. I'll just take my phone to work and get a picture...

It's not herpes! It's a second degree burn! Honest! And Jules, there's no shame in being a member of the calorically enhanced group.

And how many of those girls did you sleep with Jules? You pretty boy you. The blister pic was from yesterday. After draining it last night and plenty of vitamin E its looking much better. My cell phone camera doesn't really capture how red it is though.

Seven Mary Three - Cumbersome

Wow. That was pretty cool. Was the flick any good Jules? Bolc Party - I came across a remix for banquet on youtube done by the Streets. I don't see what all the fuss is about that guy. Although he actually meets the singer from Bloc Party in the streets during the video. Weird.

Primal Scream - Come Together I love the little guitar riff they add in during the last thirty seconds or so of the song. edit: I see they also have a video from the 94' Reading Festival for Movin' On Up. I was in the crowd that night!

I'm not clumsy or anything, but that's actually the second one of those I've gotten in the past two months. You can't really do a good job of wrapping melons unless the little heat plate is really hot. Like 425 or so. Of course most of my co workers think it's some drug accident gone wrong. At least I'm not milking it for a workers comp claim or anything lame like that. I think it kind of reminds me of the album cover for Primal Screams' Screamadelica...

Here's that burn that blistered up on me.
