Laughter and music make me tick. Stupidity and ignorance tick me off.
I miss Christopher Harley's Guess What I Am? posts. Need more. Please?

Yeah! I'll have to do another one. Methinks tomorrow night. Tonight I'll be offline, out earning some meatspace ducats. I hope you had a fun 4th. Talk to ya soon.

Maybe it's just me, but Federer's "condolences" to Roddick were sore winner-ish. Even my 6 yo said, "Wow, that's rude."

It did come out weird, but maybe it's a language issue.

There was a match after the Williams' final?...huh... imagine that...
- Barry Wynn
It was amazing - they both played out-of-their-mind tennis. I'm hoping it was a combo of Federer being exhausted and language issues....
- Abby Martin
I was tripping out on the outfit he put on after the match. It was almost like an Elvis suit. He's now the king and all the legends came out to recognize it.

Aw, baby girl officially has a black eye from her tangle with the brick wall last night. At least there's no more blood tears.

I told her last night she was the winner of the super light bantamweight class against that brick wall. Now I'm trying to convince her that maybe she'll have a cool scar to make her more interesting. *shrug* Parenting seems to be 90% making stuff up.

What is 'defamatory' in Palin's eyes. Remember this is the same woman who said people asking questions about her were being 'sexist'.

Her own actions and words?
- Michael W. May
Apparently. I remember how stupid she sounded when she accused media outlets of "digging dirt" on her when she was first announced. Come on. Sorry, but when you're a no name who had a chance to be the number 2 of a country, they have every right to dig. And then she called "sexism" when they fact-checked her. Pffft.
- Anika Malone
yeah really, how can you defame a woman who makes a fool of herself in a VP debate

Anika - your comment reminded me of one of my favorite Onion pieces on Palin: http://www.theonion.com/content...

LOL Is 'removerage' a word? I can totally use that in everyday life.

Honestly though... you deserved the boo. You chose Dogma over Chasing Amy. The only thing Dogma had over CA was Salma Hayek.

Oh, okay, thanks Bryan. I see that that's the chick from Chasing Amy. Yes, she'd be much better as a mute.
- Anika Malone
raspy baby voice Lauren. "oh I'm gay but not if you're a straight guy into me" wtf?? OK I seriously liked the comic book angle but hated the twee-ness of Affleck's-Joey's relationship. I have a super crush on Jason Lee (yes, despite the rom-coms he's been in). So I was hoping it was going to be great. only a male screenwriter would end a movie with a proposed threesome.

*would answer Anika, 'cept he's holding his breath*

You're still holding your breath? Duuude! LOL

Not having Salma Hayek in the movie is a serious defect, though.

Why did Amidala have a faux-British accent while as Padme her accent was American?
Rodfather, /Users/mjc, Alex Scoble and 3 other people liked this
She was taking her place in a long line of politicians (an elected! fourteen year old! senator-queen! Lucas, seriously, WTF?) who put on one accent for the rubes and another in private?
- Andrew C
Cause it was directed by George Lucas and therefore must not be logical or make any kind of sense?
- Derrick
It'll give him yet another thing to fix in future blu-ray releases. "Now with all-British accent Padme/Amidala".
- Andrew C
ROFL @Andrew. I can just see the first rerelease of this with fixed accent and no Jar-Jar.
- Anika Malone
via fftogo
a 14 year old elected ruler isn't without precident - Check out William Pitt in British history, tho he was 24 at the time, this is still quite young when it comes to elected rulers (In fact, Pittsburg is named after the elder Pitt!).
- alphaxion
But this bugs me. Even with a decoy as her public face, you'd assume her trusted advisors wouldn't hold a convo w/with her knowing she's a decoy. And surely when she speaks as Padme at the end of the movie the Naboonese noted the change.
- Anika Malone

alphaxion, 24 and 14 are really quite different...

I love the tradition in some parts of LA of having the low riders in parades. The cars are always so fun. Today, most of them even had the hydraulics going. Bounce!

And in that first photo, I like how Americana it looks. Considering my neighborhood is mostly Latino, people are quick to assume things about people. Fact is, most people I meet here have lived in this neighborhood their whole lives. Their parents were raised here. They're raising their kids here. The principal of my kid's school went to the same school when she was a kid. Her almost 30...

"This beach is pretty secluded and uncrowded most of the time, they have fire pits there so we can have a bonfire. Ample parking without a long haul to the coastline. And since we haven't had a Westide meetup yet, hopefully this will allow us the chance to meet those who live on that side of town."

If you're on the east side & want to see a parade, it starts at 2:45pm on Huntington Dr. North in El Sereno. Fireworks at the park later.

This kid is half white (I think Polish) and half Guatemalan. He looks like my son and his name is Loic. The first thing Alton said when he saw the kid was, "His hair is like mine!" Yes, but then Alton's baffled by the French, so he's teaching Loic English which is pure comedy.
- Anika Malone
Ha! Be careful! My aunt's step children only speak a Hatian creole version of French (they are 7 and 9). I was amazed, after only one weekend, how much English they picked up. So much faster than I picked up their French. Your 11 year-old is probably picking up your worst words ,-)
- Jess
You're right. He did pick up some words in just the day they were here. They just left, so he'll be back to French. Maybe when we see them on Sunday he'll have forgotten them.

We forgot to put the corn on the grill yesterday, so I'll do that for my mid-morning snack. The kids are not happy about cheeseburgers for breakfast. They want waffles. Seriously?
- Anika Malone
Your children are so conformed... wtf? :P
- Michael W. May
That's what I'm saying. Who are these people? Actually everyone is looking at me weird and now they're eating cereal. They said it's "too early for burgers". That does *not* compute. So, I guess I'll make my burger on the stove.
- Anika Malone
aww, don't let them drive you indoors.
- Dead Silence
Contrary to popular belief, you can indeed make a fine burger on the stove. But the real deal always comes off a grill. Also, your kids are nuts. I want a burger.
- mike fabio
Oh, I know. Most of my burgers are made on the stove, even sometimes on the stove attached to my grill. But I think I wanted to grill more than I wanted the burger. No matter. I'm enjoying my burger with sharp cheddar and mozzarella and sauteed mushrooms and onions. Let them have their stinkin' cereal.
- Anika Malone
:D
- Dead Silence
And the French kid my sis' family brought with them is just astounded. He asked them if it was normal for Americans to eat burgers for breakfast. I would have had a some omelets, but when I told my sister to bring breakfast food, she brought cereal. I was like, "For grown folk?"

If I had beef, that would be my exact "lunch". Sounds divine.

Fine, I'm gonna take my family to Keller's for some big ole greasy burgers and fries. Of course, we could go to the Burger House, too. Burger House has a menu like In-N-Out. Either way, there will be burgers.

"Trying to make the most of his location, Bob had been raising thousands of desert lobsters -- actually Australian red claw crayfish, which can weigh more than a pound -- mainly in a greenhouse just south of Mina. His 10 tanks (8 feet wide, 22 feet long, 3 feet deep) were partly buried to keep the water from dipping below 80 degrees. "You can feed them peas; you can feed them alfalfa hay," he says. "They eat just about anything. You can even feed them cow manure." Each day, Bob sold a handful of live blue-and-red crayfish, for $14 a pound, to pit-stopping truckers and tourists. The crayfish gained a following. Fans included Bob Beers, an accountant and former Republican state senator, who in 2007 championed the creatures on the state Senate floor. "We picked up 5 pounds of this desert lobster and cooked them later in the RV," he told lawmakers. "If you shut your eyes and considered how far you were from a big city, they kind of tasted like lobster.""
