Clearly I need to dress up a little for their concert tomorrow, because if I keep showing up in the official pictures and footage, I should at least look good. God.
'Out Of Gas'
Natter 60: Gone In 60 Seconds
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You will be "and anonymous woman" in pictures in later band bios.
One of the things I like about YouTube is that it's a constantly moving shell game where people post clips from their favorite shows and movies which have never been released on DVD, which are then removed and then come back looking like _Dar1a_ for Daria.
Cool shows like The Maxx can be seen, and you can watch all of Tom Waits Big Time in ten chunks on YouTube.
Honey West is coming out on DVD soon but you can keep yourself entertained waiting for it to arrive.
Supposedly the DVD release of Daria is being held up while they work out the rights for the music. I don't remember - what songs did they use?
I'm not sure what the music rights issue would be for Daria. They had Jane's brother's band doing weird songs, but those were written for the show. The title track was written by Janet Wygal (of The Wygals, and The Individuals).
ION, I want this painting by Jared Joslin.
Favorite Olympian/Olympian crush: Paul Wylie, 1992 Albertville Olympics. Believed to be washed up, named to the U.S. Olympic team under protest, that people thought that one of the younger guys should be named and not without reason-- he had a history of choking in the short program and then delivering the most exquisite long programs.
But somehow, he managed to do the impossible and do a great short program and then even better, perform a gorgeous long program when it counted.
I have fond memories of Alberto Tomba, the slalom racer from the '80s (?). His dear mama told him she was afraid for his safety if he raced downhill, so he promised her he would only do the slalom races--and proceeded to race the slalom faster and more recklessly than had been seen in ages. He also refused to get up for the early morning practices and slept in, then did a couple of runs down the mountains in midday then hit the beach.
Tomba!

Never fails, bad work things happen on Fridays and at 4:30 you are still waiting for a go-ahead/don't go-ahead/ohSHIT response.
This weekend
Floor sanding-- who is surprised?
The obama vp thing isn't gonna happen until tomorrow, is it?
Ion - I forgot lunch today. Grr
