And I still have to pack, so we begin.
The Victory:
- There will be no chicken enchilada casserole at the SoCal gathering on Sept. 1. If the disappointment is just too much for you, may I suggest the way cooler Pac NW gathering being held on the same day?
- A few people stated the conditions under which they would vote for Grant, aka ToasterBoy, for Open Mic Host. ToasterBoy has yet to make a statement addressing the concerns of these constituents.
- This week’s Radio DJ is one of those not-quite-as-cool-as-us Rock Boat people named Lisa Coleman. I’m sure she’s still quite cool though, so you should listen to her music.
- scotswahay and wife were in New England. Now they’re in Old England again.
- Many of those UK folk, who rarely leave their own thread, are still deciding on flights and how long to stay in Florida before/after the cruise. It rained a lot in England this week, which you’d think I would have known, since I read the BBC news and have a sister who lives in London. But no, I learned about it from a message board…
If you only read this Review for important news, you might as well stop here. It’s only insanity from here on…
Caribbean Lounge:
- Oakhurst didn’t play in Cleveland. But they will, hopefully, be playing on the cruise. Any word on that yet?
- The Joe Self auction is still going on. People should go bid. I should go bid. But I’ll probably wait until the last minute and then only bid on the stuff with little interest.
- CayCay posted a link to Bathroom Bloopers. Perhaps it shouldn’t be so funny to watch mistakes. But it is.
- More people have BNL on their MP3 players. I’m still not surprised by this.
- A song called “Happy Hour” by a group called the Housemartins bears more than a passing resemblance to “Hello City.” And is just plain cool.
- Guster played in Orange County. Cats eat bugs. Guster often plays a similar setlist from show to show. They shouldn’t do this. Especially this weekend when I’m going to see them twice in three days. Why don’t they think of me when planning their concerts?
Still some activity in the Seven Seas Lobby from those who have not been scared off by the rest of us :
- teishao, rsine, gabmar, and Suzy are all looking for roommates. Hopefully they’ve found each other!
- CountAbby, Jackie Lynn, and andimarie finally have a cabin. MotownGuyinWI does too!
So maybe there was a bit of real news in the previous two sections, but now we’re on to the Buffet, where nothing of any real value resides:
- While I’m not sure what a giant fake penis inside white spandex pants was supposed to prove, it definitely did prove to me that I never need to see a giant fake penis inside white spandex pants ever again.
- We still feel disgust toward celebrities and their alleged misconduct.
- WeedMage accused Sixthman of separating Bare from Naked. But the real criminal was the internet. Allegedly.
- Many of us watch John from Cincinnati, although few of us claim to understand what the @$^*&! is going on. Also the kid might be a robot.
- Johnny Five from Short Circuit is for sale. Does anybody else ever think of this
whenever Johnny Five is referred to?- Only 16 million seconds to go! Garyrulez will not be spending those seconds enjoying the musical sensation that is Rent. He will instead be relating everything to the Simpsons.
- Weeds is a good show that is unfortunately shown on Showtime and is therefore inaccessible to me until Showtime gets around to putting out the DVDs of the season, usually about a year later.
- Forget weird Canadian spy coins – it’s the rodents that we have to watch out for!
- Hairspray was a movie. Then a play. And now a movie again. John Travolta was a star. Then a has-been. And now a woman who bears an unfortunate (for her) resemblance to the Snapple Lady.
- It is best, when using a pillow, to place the head on the cold and non-flattened side. Maybe after the good night’s sleep that should result from this, polyester_angel will be able to remember my name…
- Royalty fees are charged for everything. While this is completely legal and possibly even fair, it still sucks.
- Chloe Sevigny hates Canada. Stupid Elation Chloe Sevigny.
- Lauren offered a chance to win an autographed poster this week to anyone who could find the four land-based Sixthman events and somehow figure out that Andy got naked with us.
- You still can’t book excursions. I want to plan my dolphin time!
- Michelle in WI and 2kids5cats posted information that proves, once and for all, that cats are evil and out to get us.
- The use(!) of semi-colons, and other punctuation as well, in sentences is very important – without them, we might get lost; how disorganized would our thoughts be? I don’t know…
- Oh how the Girls Talked! We discussed a possible mixer (naked, tropical, awkward, etc.), desperation wristbands, T.B.A.’s crazy Scrubs dancing, PA’s pink hat and her friend’s future embarrassment, and animal ears as an identification tool.
- “Have you not been blessed by the c**k fairy?” Do you think this is anything like the tooth fairy?
- There is a lot of dancing on Scrubs.
- There was much good news. Any bad news can now officially be blamed on my roommate. So far, she is responsible for the failure of 2kids’ garage sale to make thousands of dollars, the cat that bit 2kids’ daughter, Michelle’s sprained ankle, and Hanson. I am totally blaming her for Hanson…
- Green Day has done a cover of the Simpsons theme. I kind of love Green Day.
- We had reviews of Collective Soul, Live, and Counting Crows. Mostly those last two. Whatever issues we may have with these bands, they are absolutely amazing when compared with anything that has resulted from that evil spawn of Satan known as American Idol.
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows came out. I considered spoiling the book here, but I figure everyone in the virtual universe has already done so. I hate to be redundant.
- Internet hotel reviews are not necessarily helpful, but they are often entertaining. Thanks to people’s posts on the subject, we still haven’t found a nice, cheap place to stay in Miami but do know where to get crack, lubricants, and hookers!
- There are more random questions. You should answer them.
- And if the questions are not random enough for you, there’s a whole thread to help.
- Finally, the ABCs. I would say that we should stop the game and move on to bigger and better things. But we still haven’t mastered the concept of “Y” yet, so let’s keep it going…
And now, I must go pack
