Sinatra song believed to be a karaoke curse in the Philippines

Lego steampunk "Voyage to the Moon" model
The 1902 French movie Le Voyage dans la lune provided one of most indelible science fiction images ever: the grimacing Man on the Moon with giant bullet-like space capsule in his eye. Guy Himber's excellent Lego steampunk adaptation evokes the same feel with panache. I love the barrel as the exhaust port! The sculpture won the award for 'Best Art' at the 2009 BrickCon Lego convention.
Did I hear it was -t's birthday? Happy birthday, -t! With cake and lots of love!
Crap. I don't think I can make my trip.
Which sucks since I used my own credit card to Hotwire my car which means that I had to pay the $200 bucks up front. I had planned to have my company reimburse me for the Dallas portion.
Love minus zero, minus t! Happy birthday!
Alexander McQueen, RIP
Bummage. He's so gloriously gothy. I bet Coilhouse has a big piece on him.
