Come, come, nuclear bomb
Was at the rehab unit where my folks live yesterday and I heard someone referring to a baby to someone else:
Has she seen Gregon? [pronounced Greggin]
Gregon!?
Missed opportunity
That girl from Twilight is playing Joan Jett in the Runaways biopic:
Which is okay, so far as it goes. But shouldn't be playing Tim from Brainiac in their movie?
It could be hot, just Tim being played by a chick as a male, thus capturing the Taylor mystique and sex appeal...or something!
It beats my first idea of having Peter Dinklage play Tim in my Terror in a Tiny Town-style extravaganzer L'il Dayton.
Bottega Calabria...
...take me away!
These crazy Italians make something called "Hot Pate," among other stuff - I also have a jar of the hot green pate in the pantry [sick!], made of chicory - and DLM has it. I first got some last year when it was in a remaindered cart for a buck. Oh, boy - it's hot, ground up peppers in oil. Smear it on anything. It also has some ancient Italian undertaste that sort of reminds me of the way our home movie screen smelled when I was a kid. You know?
No matter! Now the shit is 8.99 a jar, and here is where selfishness wins out (take heed, Ayn Rand fans). I budgeted a quantity of this shit into my Xmas spending allotment, because when I used up the last of the $1 jar, I had no memory of what it had been called and had no hope of ever seeing it again!
PLUS, they even have a website, put together by the management's eight grade son (apparently):
Ramona the Badass
Okay, overly precious to talk about as a 40 year old man, but just remember that Ramona Quimby had a doll named Bendix ("which Ramona thought was the most beautiful name in the world") that she eventually melted in the oven just to be a shithead, AND that in Henry and Ribsy she starts eating a pound of butter ("with grimy hands") just for the fuck of it.
I don't know about any of that sensitive later shit, however.
