Questions 67 and 68

I dare anyone to tell me where that title comes from. Anyone?

Well, I’ve decided that working every weekend just plain sucks. You know, in case you were wondering. I plan to boycott it this coming weekend – Caps get killed by, er uh, I mean play the Flyers this weekend and we are taking Goddaughter ‘O Lurve and Nephew ‘O Lurve (aka Justin) to see it. I’m sure we will be a sight – the two chicks in Caps sweaters and the two boyz in Flyers regalia. I can hear the cheering now: (Flyers fans) “Let’s go Flyers” followed by the Caps Fan rejoinder “Flyers suck” – ah yes. Fun stuff, that.

New slogan from the message boards:

So, I TIVO’d “Annie Hall”, watched it this weekend and had an ephiphany. All of my humor is rooted in two movies – the aforementioned Woody Allen piece and “When Harry Met Sally” – I’ve picked up ways of saying things that clearly were shaped by those two movies. Anyone who wants to truly understand my humor would be well served to view those two movies. It’s almost uncanny. (oh, and add a huge dose of Izzardisms to that and there you have me, in a box).

I also watched some of “Breakfast at Tiffanys’ and ummm, don’t get it. I spent about an hour trying to figure out WTF was going on in it and just gave up. This movie is supposed to be a classic, yet I was completely unmoved by it. Much like I couldn’t care less about Elvis. What was all the fuss? I might finish watching it but most likely not. I mean, why waste time in front of the tv when there’s Cubis to play, right?

I got some free I-Tune songs from my Diet Pepsi caps and I have to say I am right impressed at that whole deal. Not enough to give up WinMx, mind you, but pretty darn impressed. I dowloaded three songs (do ya wanna know what they were? I’m embarassed to say, actually):

1. Milkshake – Kelis
Yes, intellectual fare at its best: My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and their life is better than yours / damn right it’s better than yours/ I’d teach you but I’d have to charge.
It’s catchy in a really retarded way.

2. To Wish Impossible Things – The Cure – this just fits – don’t ask why. You might even know the answer.

3. Beginnings – Chicago. I heard this in the car tonight and it brought back my sophmore year in high school sooo clearly. I used to listen to “Chicago’s Greatest hits” album over and over and frigging OVER. This one has nice memories attached to it. Purely for old times’ sake, you know.

See? Gay. I told you. I mean, “I could teach you, but I’d have to charge … la la la la la.”
