Welcome back sexy people!

Wow, it’s been a while, sorry. The site was down for while due to the ineptitude of SBC. Then we switched everything over to this new sexy format, which I must say is quite sexy. It will become even sexier I assure you.

I’m sitting in my living room right now watching the Red Sox game. John Olerud just hit a 3 run homer in the bottom of the fifth. Woo hoo! Rodrigo Lopez was looking pretty fucking un-hittable until this inning.

Part of my problem with updating the site comes form my not knowing precisely how to update it. I’m slowly learning how to use this new software and I plan on making up for my incompetence ten times over.

Mannequins freak me out. I’m not sure what it is, but I find them entirely unsettling. Especially when they have no heads, it doesn’t really seem right. Yesterday however I found a new and even more frightening mannequin manifestation: Heads but no faces! They totally unnerved me. I feel like maybe they were once human but have been mystically transformed into faceless soulless pushers of fashion; incredibly disturbing. One more thing, why do mannequins have nipples? That just seems unnecessary. They don’t have to feed any small children, so the nipples only serve to arouse innocent passersby who may or may not have a penchant for the ever alluring stimulated nipple. The whole thing can be explained by my aforementioned theory of human/mannequin slavery, of course if they can rid the mannequin of its face then why can’t they do the same for the nipples? These are the kinds of things that keep me up at night.

Today I watched Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Hedwig is a super high quality movie. It’s based on a musical about a cross-dressing glam rocker from East Berlin; fucking brilliant. The music is pretty goddamned great, one of the songs “The Origin of Love??? is quite possibly the coolest song ever written. I’m actually contemplating covering it, it’s so freaking hip.

Fall has to be my favorite time of year in Connecticut, College Football season starts, MLB post-season is right around the corner, and Samuel Adams releases their Octoberfest brew. Octoberfest is probably my favorite of the Sam Adams line-up, plus right now it’s obscenely fresh and tasty. That’s the beauty of the seasonal brew. The only thing that fall has against it is that it’s immediately followed by winter, which I hate. This is why I should have a second home in California or perhaps the Caribbean. That would be swell.

Last night I finished watching Buffy season six, which leaves me with only one more season of vampire slaying goodness to enjoy. After that I may have to move from Sunnydale to Los Angeles and start watching Angel. I’m going to try and give myself a small break though before I start season seven, I kind of want to savor what time with Buffy I have left. She’s a real special lass that slayer. I like how in every episode she has a different hair style, I think that’s neat. She’s pretty alluring for a chick that died twice.

Ok enough gushing over the slayer, I’m going to watch the last inning of the Sox game.

Hooray! The Sox win it 5-1. David Wells put on a fucking clinic today. It was a beautiful thing to watch. 114 pitches and 82 strikes, pretty sweet.

Well I think I’ve spewed enough nonsense for one day, I’m going to go concentrate on making dinner. I’ll be back soon, we have much to discuss.

Peace,
Rold

um, Dave, I mean, Captain Squiggle, you are a jerk. Nobody should nuke whales. That is moronic. I know that is supposed to be a funny joke, but why not just revert to your poo jokes? anyway, all this is besides the point of this post, which is: Aren't mannequins just vehicles for nipple-exposing blouses? And secondly, why would you WANT to do away with the mannequin nipple? What could be less threatening than a nipple attached to a body that can't get pissed at you for drooling over it, not only because it's a mannequin, but because it's a mannequin with no HEAD, and therefore doesn't even have IMPLIED eyes? Personally, I think mannequins are alright, I find them non-threatening. For example, if you were to ask them to explain the significance of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle to certain conceptions of the structure and reality of the afterlife, I think you'd probably be very disappointed with their response. Anyway, time to go to bed.
