Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday, debgeisler and davidschroth.

Cinema Lounge at BBL

The Cinema Lounge was great last night at Bryant Lake Bowl. It was packed. The four short films were good, and you get to question the makers. It was a fun crowd, even if it is hard to get to the place -- the street seems to be missing as is the sidewalk. The first hour I was there, the building shook from the heavy equipment. Third Wednesdays.

Happy the GOP said "fuck the troops."

The FoxNews All-stars are high-fiving all around. They're happy the GOP said "fuck the troops." They don't make the rules. Chickenhawks do. You'll stay in Iraq and you'll like it. The Empty Codpiece needs to save face.

Da General:

Dear Mr. Keyes,

Until now, I haven't seen a presidential candidate I can fully support. Sure, they're all good on values issues like finding new, more painful ways to torture people, but by God, as far as I know not a single one of them have blamed 911 on abortion or spoken out against the abomination of allowing people to elect their senators. You're the only one.

And by God, no candidate, not even Sam Brownback or Mike Huckabee, has stood up for family values by disowning one of their own children for being a homosexual. I thank you for it. A candidate can't get any more family values than that.

It caused me to re-evaluate my relationship with a homosexual in my own family, my dog, Brutus. I followed your example and banished him from my house for his homosexuality. I've also considered banishing his partner in crime, but I am too spiritually weak to ask a doctor to amputate my leg. I'm very ashamed that I can't be stronger. I know you'd do it. More

Left work

To warm air and black clouds with lightening striking straight down. The sirens started to scream as I drove north on France. The radio babbled about Lebanon or Syria, until they started on the rain hail winds and tornado oh my. The pelting rains came and I drove to the Edina Theater and parked in the ramp out of the rain . No hail yet. I'm at another sneak, The Wild? something Sean Penn's mixed up in. Boy/wilderness, but probably no nekkid men. I need gas and I hope the storm is over by the end. The Q/A guy is missing at the end.

Wilson' performing Friday and Saturday at Patrick's Cabaret. Avec squeezebox et tutu. I suspect Patrick will neither be there nor be nekkid there.

Klobuchar is an idiot again...

Voting "To express the sense of the Senate that General David H. Petraeus, Commanding General, Multi-National Force-Iraq, deserves the full support of the Senate and strongly condemn personal attacks on the honor and integrity of General Petraeus and all members of the United States Armed Forces." What an idiot. I guess she likes getting fucked in the ass by Commander Codpiece.
