cursing the mega production that is being held right in front of my office. every walk out your work and find yourself instantly on set?


Its a remake of The Italian Job with Marky Mark, Edward Norton and Charlize Theron (where? where?).

I never saw the original but some close film buffs are pretty irate that Hollywood is so dumbed down as to have to remake classics.

i'vejustseenafaceican'tforgetthetimeorplacewherewejustmetshe'sjustagirlformeandiwantalltheworldtoseewe'vemet,mmm-mmm-mmm-m'mmm-mmm

I like Holly Cole's version of that song.


hugs are nice.

I love that song. It makes me very happy. Once it made me cry, however, for reasons that I will disclose at another time. I need a hug.

come over and I'll hug you!

having some synchronicity with patrick? we watches mothman on saturday night and ciderhouse rules (feat. charlize theron's asstastic bum) last night.

i wonder if he's gonna watch bxkm?,m F?GVm\';L,mzf?,v" ?> 't?: b';f ,'vg'"N:L.,m?FC ,bv:?N"f,mxV/.b ,? . . .er, julien, donkey-boy tonight.

patrick, i'm sorry my post sickened you. i was just trying to share a personal experience. i can't help the fact that that experience co-incided with mark's post. anyway, please explain to me how your post of 30 september at 3:38 pm was better. perhaps i can learn how to fit in.

pay me attention

paying attention to moonit. I think they'll like you.

why did it make you cry, kazoo? I can't get that song out of my head now. Falling, yes I am falling, and she keeps calling, me back again.

we desired to watch Todd Solanze's latest flic Storytelling, however a friend in grave crisis, going through a messy seperation and divorce needed us as her husband and our friend, who is a father as well, is being a complete dick and well mrs waffles, being the good friend she is decided to put the the movie off and be with her, as yesterday was to be her anniversary.

for some fucked up reason, i at the last third of a pot brownie like it was prom night and got considerably, and wastefully i might add, fucked up.

The weather has turned for the better, feeling like fall. Im wearing sweaters like mad and wanting nothing more than to hunker down in the house with soup and movies.

you guys pick on Joe too much. I can think of at least five other people who come here who are Way more annoying than he is.

Am I one of them?

I need a hug, too. I need a new me. I'm sick of this one.

hell no, Spider, you're not annoying. I betcha I'm one of them though.

oh please spider.




we all know i am all of 5

Get over yourself, Patrick.

And give me some sympathy.

sympathy for what?

sympathy for your self-pity?

sometimes you're too cold in your "coolness", Patrick. (please note the quotations.) were you not human once?

I also observe that you're often very hard on Rhiannon.

today is my day for observations. I notice this, I notice that, I notice I am not a cat. (look, I'm a poet!)


if you come over, I will hug you too, Rhiannon!

Let's trade Selves for a day.

posting a response to Dougie's question. It's on my What are you Afraid of Thread

just back from eating doritos and watching them blow up an armored car for this film.

i advised some british tourists not to be intimidated by the big security guards who tell them they can't take pictures. bullshit. its a public place, and they are behind the security zone, they can take all the damn pictures they want. advised them that production crews feign authority as 90% comply.

I said holey fuckamole for the first time in my life today and it was when I realised that I thought Elvis was tommorrow instead of today and Sarah I got that from you.Also ticketmaster has got to go and what piece of that pie does J.C. have his thumb in? Whatever happened to the days when you could buy direct from a venue without paying a middle man 8 fucking bucks a ticket? Bastards!!!

Thanks to Margret, I have "Alibi" in my head.

Maybe we can make the future better...

interviewing people for my position. Hell, my body's not even cold yet. 2 dudes who stand no chance, and one dude who's a possibility. It's amazing how much people (including me) lie on their resumes.

"Experience: Created the world in 6 days, and boy was I whipped, so I fucked around on the 7th."

responding to gee.

when i see rhiannon feigning insecurity when she knows damn well she is probably the sweetest, least confrontational and probably the most sweetly regarded flower in this shitshack it bothers me.

because i regard her as i do, (hell i had a dream of kissing her fer chrissakes!!) it almost angers me to see her put herself down.

Im hard on rhiannon because of the deliberate and unecessary hardness she puts on herself. I will not kowtow her self pity.

Now, whether thats the best approach, Im not sure. But its well established Im not the most prudent person around here.

Moreover, she could have been joking with her post, hoping she's not one of your 'dirty 5' but i really believe she meant it.

so for that, spider sorry if i hurt your feelings. im just mad you keep hurting them yourself (or so it seems to me).



so gee, with all due love i highly encourage you to kiss my growing white ass!

giving Spider the sympathy she asked for. Because I know how she feels, and I know that it only made things worse when people got angry at me.

Because then you just get insecure about being insecure. Then trying to live up to some ideal of having "emotional togetherness"...it just adds another standard to the already unattainable ideals that we've set for ourselves.

It's a vicious cycle.

I would say that keeping it in and letting it fester is worse than venting and whining. Yes, sometimes you make it worse when you keep saying it over and over. But sometimes you hear how ridiculous it sounds. And then you start feeling better.

Thank you, Nigel and Gee, for the sympathy, and thank you, Patrick, for the apology.

I was kidding -- I know Gee loves me :) -- but I was serious in that I find myself (my self) annoying at times. I'm really unhappy with my job (and my life's goals, which are...?).

I feel better today. Dave, sadly, was right on when he identified my PMS from across the nation. Stupid hormones.

PS. I've found that the crushing humiliation that comes after admitting something weak is actually good for me in the long run. Standing up under shame makes you stronger.

ohhhh its that sexy woman in the red shirt again.

spider, me too! we're synchronous!

telling spider - i love you, girl. i hope you have a great weekend.

Gosh, thanks, Sarah! I think you are one kick-ass woman. Agatha, too.

you're all kickass women. A bevy of beautiful, bodacious, kickass broads.

admiring Dougie's post. Both for its content and his eloquent use of alliteration, my favorite rhetorical device next to onomatopoeia and paronomasia.

Nigel, you might like this site:

thanks Nigel. I was thinking it could use one more "b" adjective, but my feeble brain had no more "b"'s to give.

I still think that anything that can bleed for 5-7 days and still live has to be bad ass

Dougie,
you should never be out of bs...

Snap, Agatha.

Fuck I'm in pain.

And I get to meet my grandad today. That reminds me I have to ring them - I'm not sure what time I'm supposed to be going over there.

I'm still making the ick-face at the prospect of Patrick's white bum.


you know I love you all. those of you who give me presents, I love more.

I feel dirty.

hey j, back in the 70's schaefer beer sponsored about 50 concerts in central park every summer. the tickets were $5 each and all you had to do was go to macy's and buy them. we used to save up our money and go buy tickets for 10-20 concerts right after school got out. so much for the days of no surcharges.

hey mark, why don't you go buy a pound of that "bologna" over at c-town. then bring it home and eat it while sitting naked in front of the tv watching "babylon 5" re-runs. man,...there's a culinery experience you won't forget.

Trying to recover from a miserable hangover brought on by watching the Diamondbacks get wiped out,glug..glug..glug. I perversley(?)couldn't bring myself to stop watching.And thinking how it's now possible that I can't stand Barbra Streisand even more than I already did,800 shares of halliburton,can we say hypocrite? There is no doubt in my mind that back when Marcus Welby was on t.v. she was fingering herself every time Dr. Kiley was on the screen and now she bought the has been,lucky lucky. Tonight I'm seeing Robert Schimmel,he is so cool,I'm taking some books that he donates to cancer patients.

BUSH HAS IT BOTH WAYS REGARDING HIS FAILURE TO END THE WEST COAST DOCK WORKERS LOCKOUT

By the way, the president could step in and invoke Taft-Hartley.
But he won't because since it's a lockOut it's an action designed by the employers to push down the wages of the shipping clerks by showing them that starving is worse that working for shit wages.
Even though they call it a "strike" in most of the media. . . since it is a lock-out it is an action initiated by the employers .
The prez won't step in because his inaction gives him the best of both worlds . . . for three reasons:

1- Keeping this dispute alive furthers the wage-depressing interest of his pals that employ the unionized shipping clerks.

2- Since the media characterize this as a "strike" the onus for this job action is on the unions and God knows bush and his republican predecessors have been union busters from the get-go. (remember one of Reagan's first actions was to fire the striking air-traffic controllers and replace them with non-union people and management)
(Here's a laugh, the Washington punditocracy has it that bush is hesitant to use his powers to end this lock-out by immediately imposing an 80 day "cooling-off period" because he is afraid of offending labor interests this close to the election!)

(If he ended it - it would really be against the interests of the people who actually instituted this lock-out, the employers)
. . . . The employers said that they imposed the lock-out because the workers were staging a slow-down . . .
In reality, according to a seldom quoted spokesman for the unions. . ."in the run up to this lock-out the workers were assigned 2 - 3 times their normal workload so it was impossible for them to keep up with the frenetic pace"
so obviously this whole job action is a very successfully staged ploy by the business interests and the bush people..

3- It diverts the blame for the shitty economy away from the deflationary policies of the central government, including bush, the fed, etc.

still feeling dirty.

i have new brakes.

there is no produce.

"w",...what a guy. a few days ago, he was completely incapable of reciting "fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me." he stumbled, started over, tried real hard but, in the end, he never recited the entire phrase correctly. it really frosts my ass that this fucking stupid idiot, who thinks that he "gets" to be president because of his father, finds himself in a situation where almost anyone could have a high approval rating as president as long as they talk tough. fucking ralph cramden could have a high approval rating right now with the right staff behind him. what the fuck? i would just like to have someone in that job who is capable of making the decisions on his/her own. unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anyone out there who fits the bill.

whoops! i forgot abot president bartlet!

[about]

I saw Robert Shimmel tonight,he was great,too bad I had to see him with my husband,I'm taller than him,but I would still do him.

TARIK AZIZ, Foreign Minister of Iraq, proposed that This Whole Thing be settled with a duel between Bush and President Hussein.

As Andy Rooney noted in his commentary last night, "For Bush, it's a personal thing."
He showed a video clip of Bush concluding a list of reasons why we should invade Iraq. He showed Bush saying, "after all, the guy tried to kill my dad". . . .
And Rooney's comment was: "So a lot of Americans' dads are going to end up being killed to settle this blood feud."

desparately killing time.

space shuttle missions and sex.

space station crews and wanton lust.


they have to. they just have to. you know they have. you know its a little known inside joke amongst the astronauts and cosmonauts. its not like they fiddle with space gadgets 24/7 up there. they have downtime. they need entertainment. they are human.

i just wish someone would talk about it and tell us what its like to do it in space. unfortunately there is this idea that it is somehow disgraceful or inappropriate. why? its cool to openly wonder and talk about what they eat and how they go to the bathroom.

I wanna know if they are fucking in space!!

anybody know how those mantles work on those Coleman lanterns? I mean, they're cloth, and then they burn into this solid skeleton. Why don't they just burn up outright?

well, patrick, here we go. i know that you don't like me and probably don't believe anything i post, but this is the absolute truth. one of my colleagues at the church where i am director of music is the aunt of one of the astronauts that just went up in atlantis. should i ask her to ask her niece about sex in space?

I wondered what would happen if I bought that sign and put "SORABJI.COM" on it. Who would come to this web site? Who would even remember how to spell the word? Probably not a lot of people.

that's right, mark,...not a lot of people, just all of us who are here right now!! all the people who post,...all the people who comprise your inner circle,...all the people who wander in and are ignored. it's just what you want.

can't believe it's my last day here. Looking forward to 2 weeks off then starting the new job. On a completely unrelated note, I just went to take a piss, pulled down my zipper, and took a big chunk of flesh out of my finger from a staple that they use at the dry cleaners for those little tags. What's up with that? I don't want my pants stapled, and especially not so close to my little hombre down there.

ouch!



I miss my friend.

taking the day off. it's my birthday. i'm going hiking and to ross dress for less to buy my self something fun.

first thing i did this morning was bake myself a birthday cake. it took me an hour and half.

Death By Chocolate.

yeah!

a conversation with a pilot someone not me had.


air marshals work in 3s you know.

thinking some more.


writing.


what about bad writing i says.

a friend stopped by angry sams yesterday, while were on the porch talking.

angry sam spent the last 4 weeks in Seattle filming that horrible horrible tv show of his. we caught up.

the friend reads sam her work often. its bad. really really bad. it reaks of desperate, lonely woman late 30s just short of reaching for the Fabio novels to keep her warm. Shes smarter than that, i hope.

what do you do when someone imposes writing on you? They read. You are pursing your lips and stretching your neck, possible even wondering if popping your knuckles would be rude. I let my wife and sam do the responding. I asked if anyone needed anything while i was up. I had gurgled an 11oz can of Peter's Brand Pilsner during that "lovely", miserable, drivel you call "Bath Tub".

I love you, I just wish you didnt write.


we tried our new sleeper/sofa the other night when L and her our godson H stayed over. ( its not Ikea...its a steal of a couch she got at a thriftstore right off the truck, practically brand new for $40). Super comfy. I made my super bolognese sauce and we had halloween cookies and put up the spooky cobweb stuff nico had got.

In the middle of a divorce, L was just too exhausted to walk home. Further H was so excited to sleep over at "patrick & mikos".

Its a sloppy, messy, childish divorce. Unfortunately its my friend C, the husband, who is being an emotional neanderthal. Making weapons of the absurd and inevitable and things that are indeed his own doing. You don't use your child's existance as a threat and weapon.

What to do.

The preggers wife is becoming more short-fused and volatile. Though she won't admit it. She's also more absent minded. I tread carefully. She blows up easily at me...making me the worst but is resigned after hearing the daily update of neanderthal divorce case. I'm looking good when its that bad for others. Not exactly comfy ground, but damned if I dont try.

We're stressed. We're worried,We're even a bit depressed sometimes...but we try.

Thats what we are doing. Trying.

Milkdud is on the way.

a conversation with a pilot someone not me had.


air marshals work in 3s you know.

Went to Costco yesterday and I just had to share this with y'all. There is a little Indian resturant that we go to some time and I never know what I'm supposed to put all those sauces and condiments on. So I saw a Indian(with the dot)woman with a slice of pizza that she got at the snack bar,then take it to the relish bar that they have for the hot dogs that the snack bar sells and put some pickle relish and raw chopped onions all over her slice. She looked kind of funny as she was eating it,but she ate the whole thing.

thank you for sharing, J

belated happy birthday, sarah

remembering bad poetry that was forced onto me.

It used to make me laugh, and now it just makes me sad.

"I love you I just wish you didnt write."

That's perfect, though I didn't realize it at the time. I just wanted him to shut-up and let me finish my spaghetti in peace.

pretending to work...

Last night Ryan called us collect from jail as soon as he mentioned Becky's name my s/o hung up on him. Even he has finally had it with him. He never learns,so this morning the girl he lives with, Kristy called and asked if he was here,and I told her he was in jail and asked her what happened.Becky and a girlfriend went over to Kristy's apartment and tried to beat her up so she called the cops,Ryan tried to take off and he was stopped,I know they were drinking so he's going to be there for quite a while. Maybe he can reflect on why he's such a creep.Yesterday I thought I locked myself out of my room and went to where I hid the spare and it was gone,I duct taped it to the bottom of my china cabinet,who would ever look there I thought at the time,he must have,luckily I found my key,but now we have to get the locks rekeyed,that shit gets old.

Crap,he's home,I guess he wasn't driving.

cold me down on the panty sty.

i would love to ask my colleague about her niece, but it wouldn't work. this woman is the "church lady" x10. she dresses so much like a nun that people who don't know her routinely ask her to what order she belongs. funny thing is, her niece is on atlantis, the shuttle that performs all the "classified" missions. perhaps sex in space is one of the things they study.

Wondering if I should help some psych student research trauma.

in the early 60's, i really wanted my parents to build an underground shelter in our back yard. i had some pamphlets that described how to do it and i thought it would be so fucking cool to be able to survive the big attack. i had no clue.

remembering Sorabjifest in New Orleans, one year ago today.

leaving sorabji, or ny?

every great culture in the history of this planet has "self-destructed". it looks like we are about to do the same. i hope that we, as a society, can muster the strength to prevent this. right now, i don't think we can. i worry most about my daughter, who is going to have to deal with more of this than i ever will in my lifetime. i have tried to impress upon her the importance of education and knowledge in a world where jay fucking leno celebrates the stupidity of the average person on the street in his "jay-walking" segments. it's not funny that some of us don't know in what month we celebrate the 4th of july.

wondering whatever happened to good old 2.5 hour, 2-1 ballgames, where the runs were scored by a single, a sac bunt or a steal to 2nd, then a double. The ball and the playters are definitely juiced.

i ketp imagining harrison in the hans solo get up with a phaser instead of a mock 9mm.

I had my first "special" brownie last night about 6p. I then proceeded to get lit up like a Christmas tree by drinking untold #'s of Imperial beer. I eventually made it home and passed out until about 2:30a when I woke up for no reason that I could tell except that I was too high to sleep. I read 100 pages of Lord of the Flies for I can't remember what reason and then settled back into bed after I took both my pillows into a different room because I thought that they had some sort of spore shooting fungi on them that was messing with my breathing ability.

I dont think I like the steady drone of that particular narcotic in a brownie.

Just got home from Goldmember.

I won $250 to spend at a mall, and another set of movie pasess (that makes six sitting in my wallet that I don't know what to use on...) plus a workmate gave me a $25 book voucher.

Vouchers vouchers vouchers... what do I buy?

Wondering how blind people when they wipe their butt can tell if they got it all?

the same way the rest of us can tell.

gone fishin'

Just to give you an idea about how Amee's mind works,she calls me last night and is telling me about this gal she works with and how she can't stand her,then she asks me if I thought she could get in any trouble if she invited her camping and then left her.This is how sick and twisted she is. I told her that yes she could get in trouble,what if she got bit by a rattle snake or tried to hitch-hike back to town and somebody raped or killed her? Then I told her if she ever gets another tatoo that 666 would be perfect for her.

getting anxious...not freaking out........yet...can't deal with this paper proposal that is due wednesday....plenty of ideas....plenty of sources......can't seem to get everything to come together in my head....can't seem to accept that it is only a preliminary proposal....plus 600 pages of reading for the next 5 days..........

back from fishin'. Took my neighbor -- he caught a 10 lb bluefish. Me, nada.

back from the emerald triangle. i love october.

i read that as '10 lb bluegill', dougie. holy mother of crap that would be scary.

I at first thought you had someone fished and come up with your neighbor.

Have I ever mentioned that trying to organize anarchists is like trying to fuck a greased pig?

hell yes, a 10# bluegill would be a sight to see. Shit, I haven't thought of bluegills in years -- reminds of when I was a kid and my dad would take us fishing and we'd catch a whole stringer-full and we'd fry them up. Bobbers and a coffee can full of backyard-dug nightcrawlers. Well, I'm off again this afternoon to go fishing. My last day weekday of vacation until the new job starts on Monday. Did a hell of a lot of work on the house these last 2 weeks, and I'm going to enjoy my last day of freedom. Today's pretty overcast and chilly -- good conditions.

hoping for the people in the theater in Moscow.

Maybe ive seen too many Bond flics but dont they have some kind of non-lethal agent they can introduce into the air system that knocks everyone out? then they storm the bldg when everyone is good and passed out.

in 1968, richard harris' recording of "mac arthur park" was the first single longer than 2.5 minutes that was ever played on top 40 am radio. it was almost 8 minutes long. the disc jockeys made jokes about it. the people loved it. i was in the 8th grade. a classmate of mine lived close enough to school to be able to go home for lunch. i would go with him and we'd listen to the radio while we ate and wait for them to play "mac arthur park". it was great. we'd smoke cigarettes and groove on the song. god bless richard harris.

Trying to find the biscuit recipe from the joy of cooking. Damn, damn, damn. That was a great recipe.

outraged at our so-called ally.

why aren't russians filling the streets?

wtf was that shit? why didnt they coordinate with doctors? its the same ole cold war, soviet heritage of secrecy that allowed 100+ sailors to die in a sub, now a 100+ innocents to die in a hostage situation.

why is nobody outraged?

Don't people realize that Russia is essentially committing genocide in Chechnya? Is it not painfully obvious by the actions of the "terrorists" how desperate, fucked and desolate their situation is?

We sit back, idle, pour money into Russia, Israel and other tyrranical, brutal governments and its no wonder people fly planes into our buildings, take 700 hostages in Moscow and blow themselves up in Israel.

Is it that hard to understand?

when will we wake the fuck up and realize what is happening?

sucking of looking at patrick's previous post.


suck it patrick.

sucking at waffle's looking post.


fuck it waffles.

good lord.

well, patrick is right. when the fuck are we (and i mean "we" as in the fucking world) going to figure out how to get along? i pose this question in the wake of hearing this born again christian talking to terry gross on npr today. he said that world unity is one of the bad things that will lead to armageddon(?). it's hard for me to believe that learning to live with one another is what the anti-christ wants us to do. the "born-agains" don't want world unity because we're not supposed to accept other religions. we're supposed to convert them to fundamental christianity. this is so fucked up. if there is a god who created us is it not logical that he would want us to get along?

pondering developments.

curious about the toyota camry.

*nursing a headache.

*irritated that her car will not be ready until Thursday or Friday

*overwhelmed into inertia

thanking Mark for the tip on Coliseum Books, i was wondering why they havent been answering the phone there for months.

in Milpitas for orientation for the new job. The flight out here sucks ass, especially when you watch the World Series game the night before and then have to get up at 4:00 am for a cab to the airport and then can't sleep on planes like I can't. The Sushi King out here sucked, and In & Out burger was more like In, Wait 20 Minutes, & Out burger. Oh well, too tired to worry about food. Must sleep.

damn I'm tired.

if you want someone to come down and take you to good sushi, just let me know, buddy.

god damnit, i can't believe the russian tea room is no more. i was a patron there only once. when i was in college i saved up the money to take my girlfriend there for dinner. i remember sticking my fork into the chicken kiev and watching the butter splatter all over my plate. after dinner, we heard casals in carnegie hall. it was one of his last performances. i will always cherish that memory. the thing about the tea room was that as long as you had a few bucks and were wearing a jacket and tie, you could get in and enjoy it just like any of the rich bastards that ate there all the time. that was a lot of fun for a college kid.

where are are of the ghouls. ?

diggin that cutie/redhead with her coffee on the subway on the way in today.

listening to the oldies.



as in Cure, Jesus & Mary Chain, Lush, and Dinosaur Jr.


You think they'll have a an "oldies" station 20 years from now cranking out the hits from such groups?













no? me neither.

trying to figure out why there were NINE police cars in front of my house at 3:30 this morning. You know when sirens wake you up, but then they fade in the distance and it's okay. These didn't fade. I watched three people get arrested...and now I want to know why.

advising kazoo that she DOES live in a reformed ghetto.

10 years ago, you would ONLY be caught dead in that area.

so what? I'm still curious. And it seems the on-line police logs are two days behind.

Man, if I worried about a little thing like nine police cars, I would never get any sleep. Let alone the police helicopters...
