Guess Who's Not in NB?

Me.

With freezing rain on this end and a big snow storm on the eastern end, my father was stressed right out at the thought of me traveling. So here I am, still in Ontario.

I've been working on cancelling all my cancellations. I think I'm back on for my performance on Thursday. I'm back on for teaching today and tomorrow. The workshop is still a go.

Now, here's hoping the surgery goes well.

I must say, it's a huge guilty relief not to have to fly there and sit around playing the waiting game in a hospital. Now I can play the waiting game from the relative comfort of my own home.

And now for a couple of links:

But is it Art?: Sometimes a meatball isn't a meatball.

Windows 386 Promo Video: Back when Windows 386 was shiny new technology, the powers that be at Microsoft put out a promo video. It's pretty boring for the first six minutes or so, but if you skip to about 6:30, you'll see how the writers/directors handed the reins over to a team of cracked-out monkeys (thanks, gha5t). This made me yell, "What the FUCK?!?!?" And yes, I used the extraneous punctuation in my exclamation....

The Lego Suicides: Just what it says.

Some day, my teeth will stop hurting. Right?

"Someday my prince will come/some day Shan's teeth will stop hurting..."

I hope your dad feels better soon. Let me know if there's anything I can do to make the waiting game more fun.

If I understand correctly, in Canada you can buy Tylenol/Codeine #1 over the counter, with 8 mg of codeine per tab. As a true child of the '60's may I recommend that you google in 'codeine cold water extraction' and get stoned to the gills. Alternatively, you could put your dentist in a reverse armlock and complain bitterly about socialized medicine while casually explaining the osteopathic results of ulnear olecrannon hyperextension.

I've got pieces...

Why the heck did she have a graphic of the space
shuttle on every page?!

Oh, and that meatball guy is the same fuckwad who dyed
the iceberg red, and put fish in a blender.

And one more time...

The Soul of the New Machines?!

Shan, I think you were the one who linked to this, so I am hoping you'll remember where it was...

It was a theatrical presentation of the reasons behind the war in Iraq, on Google Video, presented by a stand-up comic. One of the neat things was that the theatre was being powered by bicycles. Any clue what I'm talking about?
