[Zuni]

7. Tell them I said "what is up"

and happy birthday to the Dolospawn

[sui generis]

5. well friday there's usually a lounge war

feral baby pandas versus fried chicken or something equally stupid.

Somebody will say something silly, and the somebody else will come careening in on behalf of all feral deep fried baby pandas everywhere and take it seriously and throw some nasty 'tude, upon which some shade is thrown back, upon which the plushy little stuffing is pulled out of all the lounge teddy bears, little plastic eyeballs are flying, people start crying, some more people commit DUicide, and those asian extras from godzilla start running down the street with grandfather clocks in wheelbarrows again, and then (stomp, crash)

THUNDER!!!

LIGHTNING!!! (it gets a little bit frightening)

You gotta lock, lock, lock. The moderators come sailing in on their golden chariots wearing togas and diapers dispensing thunderbolts and kleenex, making solemn pronouncements about fried panda recipes, and then scolding the lounge and scowling at the wreckage.

It's actually pretty entertaining if you want to stick around . . .

23. Do you know if a Lounge War is scheduled for today?

[sui generis]

24. so far it looks like the Friday lounge war has been postponed

I am at a complete loss. I miss all the grueling sincere sturm und drang over nothing.

:cry:

Plus I usually get to be evil to evil people on Friday. I miss being evil. :evilgrin:

It's just too damn nice in here today. I may actually have to work or something.

sigh.

21. going to a museum

if we ever get out of here. Got to stuff as much fun and culture into the kid as possible before school starts and reality intrudes.

22. Crush lists, music threads, pet threads, polls..

I do a lot of fun things here. :-)

Speaking of my celeb crush list, I decided not to have a firm number in my list - but no more than 30, and no honorable mentions.

Here's the latest list:

Katie Holmes
Colleen Haskell
Alyssa Milano
Scarlett Johansson
Natalie Portman
Reese Witherspoon
Anna Faris
Claire Danes
Thandie Newton
Salma Hayek
Eliza Dushku
Cobie Smulders
Alicia Silverstone
Jennifer Connelly
Kaley Cuoco
Morgan Webb
Marisa Tomei
Kristen Bell
Amanda Peet
Zooey Deschanel
Amber Tamblyn
Sharon Case (plays Sharon on Young And The Restless)
Lauren Woodland (plays Brittany on Y&R)
Ashley Jones (plays Bridget on B&B)
Adrienne Frantz (plays Amber on B&B)
Stephanie Gatschet (plays Tammy on GL)
Lindsey McKeon
Anna Nalick
Michelle Branch
Andrea Corr

I'm thinking about adding Rachel Kimsey (Mac on Y&R) - she seemed plain at first, but she seems really cute now. And she has a full figure. I have Stephanie Gatschet in for now, because she said she'd send certain politicians into space - and you wouldn't think we have enough power for her to mean Democrats.

I keep no DU crush list, but I've mentioned some names before.

[mvd]

25. Important correction

Ali Larter goes in the list, and Lindsey McKeon will have to be taken out.

Again, I like Lindsey, but I'm not listing any honorable mentions.
