    Been reading some old DVDVR's and DEAN had some good hunches.

    DVDVR Issue #5
    "Flex Kavana was in the Power Spotlight and he seems like he will be impressive after a while."

    Gonna get into that podcast momentarily. ❤️

    I saw that too.

  2. I went with Outland (along with The Man Who Would Be King). Doesn't get a lot of talk, but one of my favorite Connery performances is in Outland. The right combination of "had it with everyone's crap" and " not sure if he is really up for the job".

  3. Something I never clicked to until the past few years ... much as I love Silver Age comics, take any given line in an issue of JLA from the early days, and it could have been said by anyone on the team. (Green Lantern? Aquaman? Batman?) Meanwhile, over at Marvel , you certainly weren't going to hear Reed Richards say, "It's clobberin' time!" If he had made no other contribution to comic book history, the medium owes a substantial debt to Stan for his contributions to dialogue alone.

    David Byrne

    I maintain that, when is isn't making loony faces, Byrne is a legit handsome man. I've long joked that the reason Tina Weymouth always seemed so pissed off was that she married the third best looking guy in a band with three guys in it.

    Tony, I'm telling you this as a friend. 

    YOU DON'T EAT FRENCH FRIES WITH YOUR FUCKING FORK. 

    I have no clue how somebody can be 1. an American and 2. have lived/spent time in every single place in the world and 3. still do that. It's like eating pizza with a fork: you just don't do it, unless you're in Italy. And there is no Italy for French fries. 

    EDIT: If the French actually eat them with a fork I will take back my complaint, but that would just be too French of them so maybe not

    Or if you eat them as part of poutine.

  6. I've met lots of musicians, a few wrestlers and a smattering of other performers (mainly Canadian stand up comedian Lorne Elliott and Samantha Bee, who was in the same University theatre program as I was). Most of them were very nice, I cut a lot of slack for not being overly friendly given they were likely busy or tired and nobody was particularly obnoxious. Zia McCabe from the Dandy Warhols was a bit abrasive with the guy in front of me (fair play to her, he was staring at her tits the whole show), but she was friendly with me when I got her autograph (she dots her I with a heart). Nicest musicians I've met are Jacob Moon, John Wesley and Tony Levin (have met Tony 3 times, he autographed a setlist "Hi, Fiona!" for my then wife when I told him she couldn't make the show because of work.) Julianna Hatfield is extremely soft spoken and gentle, and Jewel is very sweet and spectacularly beautiful in person. Of the wrestlers I've met, the nicest have been Colt Cabana, Chris Hero, Low-Ki (surprisingly) and, of all people, Dasher Hatfield, who at two different shows went up to me to chat and ask if I was having a good time. Just met Keith Lee over the weekend, he is an absolute Teddy Bear, just a complete sweetheart. The one obnoxious celebrity story I have happened to a friend of mine, who was back stage before a music festival where Styx were performing and Lawrence Gowan freaked out at her for briefly resting her drink on the arm of his chair. The mid 80s were a long time ago, buddy, you just aren't that big a deal anymore.

    All the ones I've met from sports were great particularly Stuart McCall, Wayne Jacobs and Mick Foley. Mark Kermode was great as well.

    Dumb question, who is this particular Wayne Jacobs? I went to high school with a Wayne Jacobs who was QB at UTEP as well as playing in Europe and doing coaching clinics, just wondering if it is the same guy.

    And now at least two actresses have come out with tales of George W. Bush grabbing their asses during photo ops.  Creepy fuck even jokes, "my favorite magician is David Cop-a-feel!"  Rich white male privilege writ large: the guy is an invalid who probably can't even function sexually anymore, but still thinks it's his right to touch any woman any way he feels like.

    His spokesperson's response to the accusations is ridiculous.

    Some have seen it as innocent; others clearly view it as inappropriate.  "So get that stick out of your ass, you uptight bitches."

    Small correction, wouldn't that be George H. W. Bush, father of George W. Bush .

  9. At work, so no access to Youtube for links. Anyway, was in my living room getting ready for work, when I heard a car stereo from outside playing "Tuesday's Gone" by Lynyrd Skynyrd. At first I thought, "Cool". Then I thought, "It's 7:00 AM! How can Tuesday be gone already?" That's what is stuck in my head.
