    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I have not been to India. But one of my employees was traveling through Mumbai and was probably dosed with something while eating from a food vendor (probably scopolamine). He was found by a Hindu family and they took care of him until he was back to being himself. He lost a few bucks from his...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I am seriously rustled over that fuckwad... So, of course, I am telling a bunch of people. The last person I told said to me that she was in a grocery store yesterday behind a woman with 2 bags of groceries who was trying to pay with a debit card. The machine kept beeping that there were...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I written about Costco before; because where I live probably 150 Arabs all use 1 card and nothing can (or is) being done about it. But, I have been a long term stockholder and I love it's dividend and return. But after today, I am thinking about selling it. Here's why: I am fortunate enough to...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    One of my pet leaves; having “read” it— it’s not a novel or even a collective of stories. It is a collection of interconnected tales structured like a pre-modern “bible.” It requires work to read it and decipher the interconnected individual narratives and their relationships. It seriously is...

    You've taken the merciful shortcut to embarrassing and disappointing your parents. They're thanking you for not going to college just to drop out and play Evanescence all day long smoking black and milds and dropping E and maybe pretending you have either a penis or a vagina.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Episode #3 was tolerable. Too many storylines for me to see where they are going. And yes, they are compressing time (it seems) a lot. But what's the alternative? Take 10 years to tell a portion of the story? I wish they would improve the dialogue. The cinematography and the music are good. I...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I get it-- and, it is very likely that I will join the hate squad at some time. I am just likely too anesthetized by a generation or two of significantly low standards of entertainment and writing... And I wasn't really comparing Trek to Tolkien as art. Tolkien took 17 years to construct...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I am still ambivalent and hopeful. I loved the Fellowship of the Ring. Loved it. I do qualify as a Tolkien nerd. Each successive movie seemed to become more of a chore. Yes, the battle scenes in Return of the King were pretty extraordinary, but, like the movie series, a little too much and a...

    I will never comprehend that people think there is a "dog vs cat controversy..." It's like debating apples vs cherries when they are both fruits and you can eat them both. I have lived with three dogs (who all died of old age) and seven cats (5 of which died of old age), the other two go on...

    The Wilds

    Holy shit is this show captivating. Yeah, not what I thought I would find myself watching or enjoying. But it is intense, has unique, well-developed characters portrayed by some impressive young actors and the dialogue is sumptuous. Think Lord of the Flies with only X chromosomes. Only half...

    They totally blur out the porn stuff in the background! Did they blur out or edit the tons of gore too?

    House of the Dragon

    This episode was more tolerable. They ditched any original opening score for certain now and are sticking with full GoT style opening. At least it had a story that could be followed. I still don't quite get all the porno tapestries in the background. They trying to make certain that no main...

    Someone is going to have to explain what happens to all the black harfoots and elves and dwarves between the second and third age? Maybe this?

    I'm okay with dwarves (and dwarf women) being black. They're like coal-miners and they don't like to shower: It would be seen as racist to have them in blackface, right?

    Audiobooks

    I recommend all of the Dresden Files audio books. James Marsters is a very good narrator. They are great listening for runs and cycle rides and long drives. Very entertaining candy for the brain. All of them are good. Some of them are very good.

    I'm not sure on that yet. True enough that elves existed in the second age in the Lord of the Rings. Elrond was present when Sauron was defeated. But, as everyone's favorite meme can remind us, a lot can change in 3000 years... I don't think there are wizards yet, however. We'll see- they...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I feel like I have to chime in here. I saw the Fellowship of the Ring at a midnight showing on opening night. I have read the source material more times than almost any other text. So, I watched the first 2 episodes on Prime. I think I get what they are trying to do (which is EXACTLY what Game...
