From Russia with Hairy Man Love
I made it back to Denver, folks, so call off the damn sled team search parties.
Whenst I arrived back here, I was meeted by Ali, who hugged the life out of me. Apparently a lot of bullshit high school drama was afoot. So aside from that, I think the Sara thing is a lost cause. Shes apparently lookin to get out of the dorms here. *tear* Lost another one to Ditech.
Pirate pictures. DAMN IT! We didnt do those! Fucking hell. Ill do them here with normal people i suppose.

Changes...
Well then. My year has started out interesting. I've been averaging about 10 hours of work per day since I've been back (even not including classes which started today). Which is fine, but makes me a bit tired. Theoretically it will leave me with money in a month though.
Still debating whether or not to return to Grinnell next semester. I could, and in some ways it seems beneficial. But at least at present financial doesn't fit on the list. We shall see. I need to plan out what I'm going to do both ways and figure out which one is more worth it.
Devin broke up with me. I expected it in some ways considering how the summer went. I think I'm mostly ok with it though. I understand her decision. Roughly speaking she didn't see us in the same place post graduation (which could be as early as next semester for both of us). I mostly saw us together, but had doubts so I understand where she was coming from. Anyway, I guess she figured it would be easier to just get it over with while we were still kinda distant and whatnot from 3 months apart. Kinda sucks, but understanding the decision I feel pretty reasonable about it. A bit sad still, and a bit unsure, but I'm pretty sure I'll be alright after a bit longer to get used to it.
Also, so you don't shit your respective breeches next time I see you. I got a bit of a hair cut. Maybe I'll steal a digicam and get a pic. Its interesting, and I'm not quite used to it either. Been thinking about it for a while, but I at least thought that Devin liked the long stuff so I was holding on to it. Sans that push I figured maybe it was time for a change.
Right, well good luck at the follies and whatnot. We should arrange a get together some weekend. Like I said, not too bummed about the whole thing. At the same time though I feel like it would be nice to just hang out with all you crazy bastards for a while. Plus I left some stuff at home I want. But arrangements can be made later, now for the sleeping so I can head in for more happy fun work at 8am.

The hot ninja chick from Crouching Tiger is fucking a hot ass'ed ninja!
Whoopedoo. In a few moments, Im goin back to Albia. In the middle of the night. Yep. Ill be ok. . . hopefully.
Dont watch Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon w/ the dubbing. It sounds like shit.
Oh. Bil and I discussed an issue about puttin lil icons for us on the blog. Do you all want sprites or lil portraits? Keep in mind that the portraits will look low res (read: sorta crappy) while the sprites could be from FOES (yes, everyone is in them) or from scratch. Up to you all.
Oh. Last things: Follies go well? And---Everyone is goin to have to pose for pirate poses for me when Im back. Im gone. Wish me luck.

Good luck!

Youre all employed by Herbert Hoover, and you KILLED Jesus, too!
Woah. Ok, Follies seems to be coming together. So I wanted to be a drunken Hobo King for one nite, and Ryan to be Hairy Kairry. Sadly, neither will be able to make it. But Im happy that its all come together with my slight influence and constant belittling of Deeks.
Lets see. I played guy friend for people last nite. I seem to find this problem a lot, but Im very happy to help. I think its cuz Im turning into an old bitter pervert with a chrome dome, white flowing beard, missing and teech and the occupation for the training of young warriors in return for lady magazines and panty shots ( Nyah heh heh heh! ) and this sorta ancient art of Shimhe shimhe-huh. I lost where I was goin with that. But yeah.
Ill be returning Thursday evening/friday morning. This will allow me to be back in the afternoon and allow me to sorta work on something instead of gettin on stage, droppin trough, and laying a Cleveland Steamer on the stage. oooooo. Sweet weet revenge.

Make checks payable to "Tim's Rancho de la buttlove"
Follies, follies, follies.... What time will the practice be Wednesday night? I'm hoping to make it, but I wasn't sure about the time. It seems like we were always showing up around nine or ten the last couple of years. I would prefer this were the case agian this year.
For anyone who wasn't there last Sunday night, there's gonna be an ass-kickin' good time planned for Saturday night after the cutain closes on this year's show. I'm plannin on opening up my basement for the first time in ages so that we can play some linked-up Halo and maybe sip on a few cocktails.
So far as attending, there is an open invitation. However, get in touch with me ahead of time if you want to spend the night. There will likely be a lot of people and limited space.
Also, Johnny Buttsex (cricket) and Mrs. Buttsex might be coming. Which I find very exciting.
UPDATE: Holy sweet drunken ninja jesus! You guys have GOT to check out Sexual Moments in Video Game History

Next thing Ill tell you is that Im Hitler and your Head will explode.
TIM! I CAN MAKE IT TO THE FUCKING FOLLIES! Ugh. I thought Id say that so you all'd get it. So a robotic cross dressing Lincoln? We almost got put on stakes and burned for the last cross dressin reference we made. But yeah. In your little notes and all Ive heard it seems youve left out me and kelly. Why? And do you have anything written down yet? It just seems you all can tell but not show? I dont know. Im sure youre writing down a script or something. Could I get some details? Please? Im FREAKIN out here, man!
The school sent me a bill that says I owe them $10,003.43 . This punches my ass, but the BEST PART (besides the $3.43) is the fact that underneath the balance due, it says MAKE CHECK PAYABLE TO ART INSTITUTE OF COLORADO. Hah. Ill write a boot check and cahs it in their face bank. Bah. Stupid money issues.

Making Handicapped Faces
I've got a couple books from the Cedar Falls library that are approaching the two-week overdue mark. Both my brain and the library's computer patron account record failed, because neither one registered the books as being checked out until I saw them sitting on my floor yesterday and almost simultaneously opened a letter from the CFL telling me that, guess what, I owe them not just the books but also a shitload of quarters.
Thought about dropping them in the mailbox but the postage would probably cost more than this week's worth of fines. All this is a long way of asking Kelly if she'll take them back with her after this weekend and dump them, at her convenience, at the CFL.
Instead of reading those overdue books, I spent a good (see: disturbingly long) chunk of today reading this book--Zodiac--that Wes dropped off while I was gone. As Wes summed up for me, the main character works for an enivornmentalist group and goes around finding industrial plants that are illegally dumping toxic chemicals. He then plugs the pipes and tells the companies that if they don't shut down the plant their pipes are going to back up and something bad is consequently going to happen.
So it's obviously a great story.
The progression of Follies planning has once again skidded off the tracks and begun barrelling in a completely new direction. But it's the best direction yet, so I'm happy. We had to drop Caudill due to some orders from Paxton (through Ryan) to perform the prez debate . . . and, of course, unspoken but still appended to that was the fact that we'd damn well better do the police reports. For the prez debate so far we've got a cross-dressing, robotic Abe Lincoln and friends.
And now, finally, we also have enough people to perform. I didn't even think about it until just now, but maybe if something happens disabling you long-distance travelers from making it the world won't end. I don't slap that on here as an arrogant dismissal or a lightly-veiled critique at your (K or D's) ability or additions to our stuff, I just mean that if it's hard to make it back we might be able to limp along. Last week I was freaking out because I thought we'd have no one; now we have everyone.
Of course, if you both still can make it, we're even better off. And I can maybe get those books returned.

Unfinished Business
I'm not done with the redesign, but I do tire of typing and coding and bughunting and fixing.
So this will do for a while.

oddish...
So, THAT's how working for 16 hours straight feels... Good to know I guess, now off to bed. (I think that makes 26 hours in the last two days, insanity unlikely to abate before thursday. So I'll probably be quitely sobbing if you need me...)
(More) Follies
For Follies folk: this is Pax's email to me.
Tim:
As per usual, we will do your thing on the fly. I've got you a spot in the
first act and a spot in the second act. We'll be at the theater Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday night rehearsing. Pop in any time (late, late is fine,
I don't sleep during Follies week) and we'll get it spun up. Thanks for
coming back.
Dave
So we only have two acts. Police reports and Caudill? Easiest year yet, and both are promising. Let me know in comments (Dave, Ryan, Kel, Head)

I'm here...all by myself...but here
Well, I am up in Cedar Falls. Whether it is a good thing or not, the jury is still out.
I think it will be a good thing. I have my own room, and have my internet hooked up. Soon, if my cordless phone ever charges up, I'll have a working phone, other than the cell-o phone-o. Classes start Monday, so...yeah...
Follies!!!! I will be back on Friday afternoon after I get out of class that morning. So I shall be present if need be for the Friday and Saturday shows.
But, I think I'm headed out for now to see what I can get myself into.
To everyone a good night, good rest of the weekend, and I will see most of you on Friday.
Good night!

That man was guts deep in maggots.
I know nothing of this new zombie movie, but a google search turned up something called Undead from '03 that's supposed to be pretty good. And then something called Boy Eats Girl, but I have no idea about that . . . If anyone gets a lead on a new zombie flick, let us know.
We found Dune at Goodwill, and the saintly Mr. Beary shelled out the sixty-some cents for it. I'd never been interested in the book before, mostly because I assumed it was an overhyped piece of sci-fi with its own LOTR-ish fan addiction. But it's good in a 1960's-ish scifi way. Another of the messianical epics, but pretty fresh in a lot of its story elements and characters.
I intended this post to be longer but lunch has just been served. If Dave reads this: I'll try to be online sometime tonight and if I catch you, and you're not busy, maybe we could collaborate on that script.
NEW: Boy Eats Girl is probably what Andy was talking about. Or so I'm guessing, since it's an Irish movie.

...opens a beer, hands it to you and says with a wink, "Here, have some 'calm-down' juice."
Question: Where did we get the police reports from last year?
I'm going to be back in town this Wednesday evening. I'll probably be around most of Thursday as well. If we could get our hands on some police reports and look through them, that would be great.
I also think we need to really hammer out what we're going to do. I'll talk with Ryan tonight about his schedule, and hopefully he can get in touch with Caudill about the cellphone song. (we are definately not doing that now, right?)
It would be nice to know exactly what we need to do in the next couple weeks. I don't think I'm going to be in anything other than the police report, but I know Tim and maybe Dave(?) are going to be in the debate.
Tim, if we can get together either Wednesday night or Thursday I have a lot of stuff I would like to talk to you about. We could maybe even make a trip to visit Paxton if need be.
Question #2: Does anyone know anything about some awesome new zombie movie that just came out? I heard something on the radio about it, but I didn't catch much of the conversation. I was curious.

I'm freakin out here, man.
If I had a time machine, the first thing I'd do is go back two weeks and make a separate blog for Follies crap. Then we (primarily I) wouldn't have to spam this one up with the stuff. So sorry for all you who couldn't care less whether we dump mustard or relish on ourselves onstage.
Dave has put me slightly more at ease, and for anyone interested, the plan is this: Fri--Police reports; Sat & Sun--police reports, political debate (with pax, etc), Cellphone (with Caudill). I'm guessing Ryan is completely out since I've heard no reports to the contrary. Hopefully that statement is wrong.

Pizza Hut free is the way to be!
Its been a while since my last post, I've been a.w.o.l. (And internetless)
This last week has been just crazy, with me finishing up work, trying to pack up all my stuff, and me finishing up my last damned class. I have one more test, and that is tomorrow, I believe. Unless the instructor feels like being a whore and making us take it on Thursday. I would know, had I gone to class this morning, but I felt that sleep was more important. (Screwy priorities, I know) Plus, my entire family left on vacation, so I'm living like Macually Culkin on Home Alone. Riding sleds down the stairs, and calling people filthy animals, eating a well balanced diet of macaroni and cheese, while protecting my house against the neighborhood thieves. Not really, but it is nice to have my entire house to myself, though kind of creepy at night.
Follies...Yeah, I think that this year I will be on the viewing end of it, rather than the acting end of it. Whether this really matters to anyone or not, I don't know. Maybe next year I can join you all again in the skits, but this year looks a little shaky, with me not exactly knowing whats going on with my own schedule. I am going to have to probably devote most of next weekend to the job hunting in Cedar Falls/Waterloo, but will definitely be there for at least one viewing of the follies. I'd love to be in them, but I don't know if I will be able to.
I guess that wraps up my post. Tonight Garrett, Wes, Amish, Josh and Amanda and I are all supposed to go to the Skean Block and enjoy some dinner on Gert's employee discount. And, I believe that on Thursday we may be having a small fiesta to kind of wrap up the summer. I'm not entirely sure, but I will let everyone know for sure.
Question for Tim or Andy: What did you need to connect your computer to the internet at UNI? Either call me or comment I guess.
To everyone a lovely afternoon, I hope that everyone is doing all right, and that I'll see you all before I leave on Friday.
Ciao for now.

THINK BEFORE THY SPEAK, ODIOUS WHORE!
EDIT: Ok. Ill make it for follies. EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD MAKE IT TOO!!! Well...minus Kelly who cant make it and what not. I might be able to make it to the Thursday show now...seeing how finals arent exactly the same.
TIM: Get on dialup some night and we'll hammer out stuff for the skits. Then, distribute said scripts like a dealer at a Dead show.
I talked to me daddy. He said that he's goin to try to get me to Florida for a family reunion and a chance to go to Disney. Why Disney?
1) Networking my skills. Yes, Disney is evil, but Hanna Barbara are also stationed in Orlando, as well as the outcasted disney animator's newly fledging company.
2) not a real second reason, but sarahs can get me into the palce for free..sorta.
3) Wauson. I fear confronting him, but Ill get a chance to see the fuck and brag how much better I am and listen to his retarded ideas on how a talking pie that travels thru time will be the next ET. Bah. That will be fun
Another thing: Sara. Bah. Her roomie, Allie, is now hated by everyone. And yet--IM FULFILLING THE BEST FRIEND STATUS. I need to write an Attic Leaches thing about that... But yeah. Sara is still up in the air as far as my pursuit. I like ponies.

Follies
So should we tell Paxton we can't make it? Ryan's probably a no go, and unless Dave finds a box of money he will be as well. Kelly will be gone at least the first night. Other people have possible work obligations. And we can't really wait until next week, when we'd know more certainly, to tell him. We need to now if we're dropping.
So everyone who reads this and has an interest in the Follies should comment by tomorrow afternoon (Monday). And then one of us will have to email him and tell him that due to varied circumstances we can't be in. Because we can't wait until the day before the show to realize that Rominger and I are the only ones able to be there.
New: just talked to Goathead, and he can be there for police reports. I think I'll email Paxton and tell him that we're doing police reports and nothing else (since it's the easiest, doesn't need much planning, and can have substitutable mimes). Still, leave comments.
Also, anyone ever heard of the Tunguska Event? I never had, although a google search brings up all sorts of stuff, and it seems genuinely interesting. If you visit the museumofhoaxes.com link, you'll see some new weird stuff concerning the Event, which is where I heard of it. But even without modern-day UFO investigators, it's an interesting historical case. Google it, bitch.
So everyone who reads this and has an interest in the Follies should comment by tomorrow afternoon (Monday). And then one of us will have to email him and tell him that due to varied circumstances we can't be in. Because we can't wait until the day before the show to realize that Rominger and I are the only ones able to be there.

People from the Netherlands rule the world
A homeless guy on the bus was preaching that. He claimed he had spinal meningitus, too.
Lets see. Shitty class today. Shitty weekend ahead. Shitty stuff to be shitty soon enough. But otherwize? Im fine. An old woman drove her car into a yard today when I was en route to school. Everyone on the bus saw it.
I want a voice box like Steven Hawkins has. It would make for an excellent supervillain voice.
Hmm what else. OH. NO MONEY TO COME BACK FOR THE FOLLIES AT THIS TIME. Im thinkin of offering sexual favors in parking lots like Jack Black did ("KYLE! YOU DONT HAVE ANY MONEY!") I need to call me dad to find out about this venture and NO im not puttin my guitar case out yet for donations. But i fear i will have to soon...

I dont want to say whiplash just yet but...ouch. My neck...
11 god damned. hous. ELEVEN GOD DAMNED HOURS I spent photoshopping this picture of Planet of the Apes w/ Robots. And it STILL looks like shit. I have an afternoon class...and the evening class...THEN ANOTHER PROJECT due at 1230 for Adobe Ill Ass Tator. Ugh. Art school is no different then other schools-- minus the fact I pay 15K a quarter to get ass punched whilst you all paid 90k total for said ass punching.
Saw Farenheit (sic) 9/11. Quite informative. I didnt see it as completely Anti-Bush. Just anti-Bush Administration. And any ass fuck who hates the movie and bitches about it not being true? They prolly were fucking people in the ass instead of actually seeing it. Fucking idiots. We deal with them EVERY WAKING MINUTE. Some of us have it worse cuz we are awak for most minutes of the day. Shit load of nickels, or something. Krill for EVERYONE!!!!!

Savory chicken . . . tasty greens
Has anyone talked to Ryan within the past week? I think the Great Whites finally got him. We're getting to that point where we need to know if he's in the Follies. Jeff Caudill has spoken with him a couple times, but says that they haven't really gotten anything accomplished.
There's a pretty good story about a flying carpet discovery hoax on Museum of Hoaxes (link under my name to the right . . . bitch).
Dave, ever email Paxton?

Marbles...Tons and tons of marbles..
So, I am the internet-less wonder.
My computer at home (actually its my dad's computer, mine is fine and dandy) has decided to be all wonky, and not let me on the internet. Now, the only place I can get on is school, which is all weird in itself. The only saving grace of this situation is that they have really nice, new computers.
Not much has really been happening, but I thought I would post to let you guys know that I do live. I have 5 days left of work, and my family is going on vacation on Friday, so I get my house to myself, work free for an entire week. *yay* Makes me happy. I leave on the 20th for UNI, and right now, I'm doing the whole moving thing solo. I'm sure I can cram all my stuff into the damned van, which should be an interesting endeavor.
Anyways, I need to head back to Albia to get ready for work (blah) and the person sitting behind me is feeling the need to say every word that they are typing for their paper, which is getting irritating.
Tonight, Amish declared a Kill Bill movie fest, as vol 2 came out yesterday, and a few of us (okay it may just be me) haven't seen the first. I think that's going to take place at 5 pm at Gertonia. So, come one, come all!
As always, to everyone a wonderful day, hope everything is going well for the DSM sect of the group, and the Colorado crew.

Grilled cheese? You have chosen . . . wisely.
Did someone say "getting called by a newspaper editor mere hours after applying"? You bet they did, beyatch! I wrapped my resume around a brick, rubber banded on some writing samples, and threw it threw the windows of a few more small-town papers. The Creston editor called me this morning to request more of such bricks. Another paper I applied to is at least fun to think about, because they want someone to write for three small papers under the same company, and possibly to be the editor in a few months.
Since you, Goathead, have expressed interest in being a copy editor: Journalismjobs.com has a pretty good handle on open positions in Iowa. Everything I've seen in newspaper classifieds is there, except not mired down in a bog of 'wanted: sewage swimmer' and 'needed: high-quality male prostitute.'
I never spell prostitute right the first time. Something about the Ts.

Glutton for Punishment
As always, I am a glutton for punishment.
I have offically applied for a delivery job at the Chariton Pizza Hut.
I constantly ask myself why I continue to get myself into these kinds of part-time jobs, and I have come to the realization that I must secertly want to go on a homicidal rampage and kill everybody. I suppose I could use the money, but is it worth it?
In other news...

Damn, I got nothing. My life is soo pathetic... :(

Watch those paws!
No one posts anymore?! How sad.
I saw the corporation last nite. Very wacky. If you get the chance to see it, see it. Youll hate Fox News 100 times over.

...and 30 cheeseburgers later, he was DEAD!
Woooooha ha ha! I had a SHITTY day at school today. I hate Adobe Illustrator. Its good for you Graphic Designers...but for character drawers like meself I HATE IT like no other. Today we had to trace a bicycle with the Pen tool. Easy sounding, yes, but FUCKING INTERFACE!!! Ugh. I wont get into it. If you get a chance to mess with it sometime, do it. Try to make art with it WITHOUT graphic design premise. Yeah. Mother Bitch.
I got some ca'hones and talked to that Sarah girl. Very good. I have my foot and most of my upper leg in there. We shall see what this weekend doth hold on that level. Yays.
Talked to Mel today too. Nice to hear from her again. Seein how she was the first real female in our group who didnt date any or cocktease anyone.
And what else.....umm....nothing. Nothing at all. I thought I had something. What's Paxton's email addy? I want to shoot the Ozzy/Hairy Kairrey/Cowell thing at him. And mebbe the Cell Song. Cocks.

Hey.
Dave recommended that I make my existance known, as I have not done such in some time. I have no real good excuses for this...
I've been being uber-freakish in that I'm working on a couple costumes for that convention thing I go to in Georgia.
Last year's mess can be viewed here. Though you might want to avoid the wretched artwork that also plagues that vicinity.
It's actually pretty cool of a thing, though. The convention, I mean. Especially if your into any brand of sci-fi/fantasy media at all...'cause it's all there.
Last year's grooviness consisted of Ray Parks, David Carradine, Ray Bradbury, Lou Ferrigno, and a few other people like that. A bunch of comic book people...video game people...people from FarScape... some Playboy centerfold chick.. James Marsters...This year looks to be quite similar, minus Ray Bradbury and plus....
Dr. Demento.
Yeah. Weep.
But D-Con also comes with it's sadness. Last year, Gil Gerard was there. He'll be there again this year as well. For those of you not into old-skool sci-fi, Gil Gerard was the One and Only Buck Rogers.
Nice enough chap. Certainly getting on in years...
The man was peddling bootlegged DVD's of the old Buck Rogers series...
I wept.
But not really. David Carradine was sitting not too far from him announcing when his Tai Chi class would take place. Tai Chi with the Grasshopper. Yeah baby. Y'all gonna die.
Then...as if it couldn't rock anymore...I found out Shannon Weaver was indeed the progeny of my interesting friend Debbie.
"Okay....whothefuck is that?"
Yeah...he's only the voice actor who is Kenshin from the Samurai X movies. Yeah, you're jealous. I went boozing with Kenshin.
So, yeah. That's what I'm up to. Plotting another fabulous four days of hob-nobbing with Geek Elite.
Only to return to mundane existance for another year....
You guys should come.
Seriously.
It would blow your fucking minds.
Or should I put it in more simple terms?
Oriental goth-school-girl chicks.
And other stuff.
You know you want it.

SHARKS!
Ryan and Tim should go to see _Open Water_. Its that new shark movie where the two divers are left out in the middle of the ocean with a shakey cameraman. It looks pretty boring to me, but you sharklovers might enjoy it. Another movie that I won't be seeing this weekend is _Collateral_ with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx. The only thing that movie has going for it is the very likely death of Cruise's character at the conclusion.
I might go to the new mall's theatre to see _Maria Full of Grace_, which is about a Columbian drug mule. The Century 20 at the Jordan Creek 'Town Center' is the only place playing it though, and I'm not sure if I want to fight the crowds of shopping zombies. I might just have to settle for _Harold and Kumar go to White Castle_ or _De-Lovely_.
So it sounds like things might be taken care of with Paxton? Maybe you should give me his e-mail address just in case I need to get ahold of him. I might need to beg him for a job or something.
Yesterday I called the Register about a Copy Editor job they have available. When the woman answered I said, "I hear you're looking for a Copy Editor." "Yes, I am." "Well look no further a Copy Editor has found you." (much laughter) "No, seriously bitch, gimme the damn job!"
Okay...everything's true except that last "bitch" part.

Robots arent supposed to be latenly homosexual.
Booja booja kittens. Had a nice long talk w/ Allie (Sarah's roomie) last nite. I am back in the fuggin like/like drama again. Isnt that GREAT?! *thud*
Kelly? If you could talk to Paxton, that'd be good. Im not too sure about the photo shoot idea guys. It just sounds like an unmentionable incident's idea for a wrestling skit--good over a couple brews but bad played out. The cell song though has potential, seeing how the poeple that go to the Phollies are the richy, SUV driving scum of the earth. That means they have cell phones. The photo thing just sounds like:
Dave: Oh poo! Must flail and be mad!
Tim: Im a woman! Ooops!
Dave: Flail flail flail!
Tim: Im a bass woman! Ooops!
I dont know. Im not knocking Heather's idea. Just well....sight gags are ok, but a whole skit of them boarders on dancing in front of a gazeebo with an asian and a wrestling fanatic, if you catch my drift. More refining would be good. I just dont want to have a horrible skit of me flailing around the whole time. I mean, we almost got crucified for implying dressing in drag (it mighta been the protestant gag too) so....yeah. Id like to do the cell phone thing.
What else...hmmm. News Reports, Presidental Debate, and the Phone Song / Dave Flail Tim Drag. Thats what we got. Besides two turn tables and a microphone. And the clap. I can prolly write a script for the presidental debate and anyone who wants to refine it, then it can be done... Ill either email it or post it on Leaches.
Yeah. Ill be back in town the Friday of the Follies either by midnight flight or by midnight drive. So we should burn a big fucking wooden man in the style of Pagans and worship our gods of summer lust...and ...stuff. Still working on that Sarah girl. Tomarra we are goin to Two Fisted Marios and possibly a movie or some sorta outing. Hyuck.

Black eyes...Black as dolls eyes...
That one is for Tim.
Anyways, I haven't posted for a while because my isp at home is being a vindictive whore, and won't let me get on the internet, and when I do get on, I can't post or comment or anything. So, here we go.
In recent news, I've got at most 10 days left of work, and 10 days left of class. Does this make me happy? Quite so. I just got done taking (and probably failing) my probability test, and I don't really care so much. I find statistics much easier, and that's what we're doing now in class anyways. Not that anyone probably cares...
For the follies: I won't be making it back until Friday, so I am most definitely out for the Thursday night show, as people have previously mentioned. (As is Dave, when by the way are you going to be here? ) As I still reside in Albia, and have probably the least wacky schedule of all folks on here, maybe I could go talk to Packy? Just a thought...It would be a step in the right direction anyways. I will try to get a hold of him tomorrow morning/afternoon, and if anyone is back in Albia, and would like to tag along, I suppose just call me, or comment, hopefully I can get on the internet by this evening. (Though calling me would be the best bet)
Do we even know for sure what is going to be in the follies? Police reports I'm assuming are a given, as is the presidential debate (though probably needing some work?) and the third is swinging between the cell phone song and dance, and the photo thing, dressing Tim in goofy costumes.
The photo thing could always be altered so that it could be a family photo, dressing even more people in goofy costumes for the public's enjoyment...Its an idea.
Well, I'm on a computer in the lab at school, and had better jet so I can get back to Albia, so I can get my little redheaded self to work.
To all a fine afternoon, it's really nice outside right now. Bye for now.

The 28th of August
I just left a monstrous comment, but decided to post anyway. The info in that comment (on Goat's message) is in this post. It mostly concerns the Follies.
I called Paxton last night but got no answer, and left a message on his machine. Today I emailed Dien Judge (as his is the only email addy up on the Albia news site) requesting Pax's addy and asking what's up for the Follies.
We're doing 1) police reports, 2)prez. debate, and the number three slot is split between the photo skit and the Caudill cell phone song. I haven't decided what I personally prefer, and I'm curious about what you guys think. I'm especially interested in Ryan's opinion as he's our best link to Caudill. The photo skit could be really good because it wouldn't need much dialogue or memorization . . . and I don't even have to point out the benefits in that.
About Thursday night: we're missing K and D. If I get hired in Des Moines or Cedar Falls in the next few weeks, it's likely I'd be working weekday nights, and I don't even want to think about asking for two nights in a row off during the first week or two of employment. So maybe we should scrap Thursday all together. I'm gonna mention our Thursday difficulties to Paxton and see what he thinks.
NEW STUFF: I just emailed Paxton, mostly telling him our skeletal structure of ideas and asking what sort of plans he had, wanted us to do, etc. If anyone wants the addy, let me know. I should be back online around seven. And by online, I unfortunately mean on a pc without chat capabilities...I think.

I give message
My mom inquired the other day about the follies. She mentioned that the paper was advertising try-outs for last Sunday. Which means the roster is likely filling as we speak. So put on your Apollo sandals Timmy.
Also--and I don't think I've mentioned this to anyone but Tim--Heather had a really cool idea for a skit that could run in three parts, mostly featuring Tim and Dave. It would also probably include filler from someone(s) else for the in-between time. The basic point of this skit is to get Tim to dress in drag. What simpler way could we get laughs? Dave would be playing an eccentric photographer who flails about trying to get Tim into different outfits for a photo shoot. Tim is a buisiness man who would like to get some head-shots for to get some o' dat gainful employment he's been looking for. Dave (being an eccentric photographer) ends up sticking him in a dress and then in a tub. The tub may be difficult to find, but I bet we can pull 'er off. While Tim is in the tub he will be wearing a pair of tights with cottonballs glued/stapled/duct taped to them, so as to appear like he has soap covering his crotch.
Aside from a couple of rather lengthy costume changes this would be a short, simple skit that would be guarenteed to get some serious laughs.
I will leave the decision up to the tribuneral. May their wisdom prevail.

Define Boredom
Boredom is wanting to do something, but having no interest in doing anything.
Whats up peeps? I got a new stereo yesterday. It kicks ass!! I got it sitting on my very rickety unbalanced plastic shelving unit. You guys have probably seen it. Anyways I can still hook it up to my computer and tape myself on the drums and making fun of audio chat rooms and shit like that. Yes I know that sounds sad, but I am bored. If you would like a copy of one of my tapes just let me know. I saw "The Village" in Ottumwa. It was ok. The movie was slow at times and not very scary. I won't ruin it for anybody though. I highly recommend Spidey 2 and rent Hellboy that movie rocks. Go Abe!!! Thats all I've got to say for now.

Home
Leaving for home soon. Should be home Friday night/Saturday morning. Feel free to let me know if things are to occur. Back to packing...
Following this post. I went to get food, it was strange. Taco bell had an ambulance parked outside, with its lights on. I braved it anyway. The grilt stufft thing seemed smaller than a remembered, at least physically. Though I find myself incredibly full somehow, probably due in no small part to its likely enourmous calorie count and fat content. Ah well. Also, what the hell is this new blue-green mountain dew shit? Tropical something or other. It was strange, and only vaguely different from actual dew. Somehow its as though dew has become its own company and it wants to have the full variety, wonder how long before we have dew cola? That'll be fucked.
Additionally, for Tim and anybody thats interested. A link to online copies of last years Hugo nominated fiction (its THE scifi writing award, if you are under-rockalicious). Tim was asking a "can they do that sort of question?" ie legality. To which I responded, well it seemed pretty legit. After further investigation I think I actually have an answer. It appears that the hugos are at least partly decided by votes. So, for the authors to collect votes they put their stuff online so lots of people could see them. Anyway, theres a lot of scifi here that I haven't even really tried to get through:
Hugo-Nominated Fiction for 2004
In the same vein, you might want to check out the writing of Cory Doctorow, a frequent poster on boingboingblog. He writes scifi and has released almost everything he's gotten published for free online. I've only read the short stories so far, but found them to be amusing. Think I might have to pick up the novels. Anyway, he roosts at craphound.com. Which is by the way also a rather amusing short story that he has up on the site. Anyway, back to packing for real this time (at least for a bit. Then I think maybe a movie or games).

Ill go back in time and wire hanger you out of existance!
Hootninanny. My old friend, Bleeding Ingrown Toenail, has come back after a damn 6 month vacation. Im sure none of you wanted to hear that, but I had to say it. Totally unrelated, I have a plausable female prospect. Allie, the Better Michelle, is trying and somewhat succeeding at gettin me to know her roomie, Sarah. *do the happy dance* Lets hope it works out, no? Sarah is...well...quiet and never leaves her room. And shes short. With dark hair. And those thick rimmed glasses. The best way to say it is she looks like Thelma off Scooby Doo but A LOT less goofier and freckled and not closet case lesbian dyke.
Okay. Follies. TIM ANDY OR RYAN! One or all of you need to go into the Albia Typo and TALK TO DAVE PAXTON!!! Sorry for yelling but Im serious. This is what you should tell him: As I see it, we are doing the police reports, the Presidental Debate involving Lincoln and the celebrity board/ placed questions, and the Cadell song. Thursday nite, I (daveO for you slow folks) wont be around, so Rommy will sit in for me. We are ditching the 3rd party candidacy debate because it would run on into the debate. In the Presidental Debate, Bush (paxton), Kerry (dean), and Lincoln (deeks) are debating. Asking questions are Ozzy (me), Harry Kairy (mcD) and Simon Cowell (Rommy). In the audience, we have Kelly in suit asking Amish, Andy, and etc "placed" questions, all them in wacky outfits. For Jeff's thing, I thought mebbe Jeff, Andy, and Ryan could sing the lyrics. Me, Tim, Kelly, Rommy, and Amish act out the lyrics, and we involve the robots somehow. Police reports would take place at the end of our bits. For my absence, Rommy could possibly fill in for me but he HAS to be in super tight black clothes. Think Amish's Kum&Go shirt tight. For the presidental debate that night, Andy or Amish could sit in the celebrity panel respectively and not have Q's in the audience. They will have to act like a celebrity, so if Amish could be Jennifer Lopez, thatd be wonderful. But yeah. Thats what I think should be done. THis all can be spouted at Paxton. Heck, print this puppy out and tell him off the sheet! Otherwize, this will be like Ragbrai and we will all look like fucking shit cocks purated with piss-ice. Lets NOT have this happen!!!!
