Alrighty then, my pretties! Well well well, I betcher all just postively dying to know what's up with ol' Q-boy tonight, aren'tcha? Aren'tcha aren'tcha! ;)

Well, I'm afraid that you shall have no salacious tidbits tonight! Mr. man was regretably forced to cancel our appointed hour, due to a work conflict. I received a voicemail though, where he could not apologize enough for the tragic happenstance. Actually, I have like, two or three, on my various methods of communication.

Ah well. Believe me, I'm just as disappointed as you that the intended spectacle could not proceed as planned. Not to worry though, we have rescheduled for this coming Tuesday instead.

Said exchange took place over a phone call this afternoon during work - a call that, though started merely to hammer out particulars, stretched into a conversation of maybe 25 minutes or more.

During this time though, I was able to ascertain at least one thing. He's really, really... *sighs*

Nice n' stuff.

*chuckles*

goddammit.

Goddammotherfuckingsonofabitch.

NO NO NO!!! Stop that! *slaps self* Get it together, mister! Creepy Serial Roomate Stalker, remember???

"You don't want this, sir! Look, see?? Scary furry video-game-playin' cartoon-watchin' sci fi and computers-liken' collar and tail-wearin' convention-goin' interior decoratin'-hatin' not-Ghey-World-bein' big ol' weirdo freaky guy!!!

Phear me! Grawrh! *pounce kill maime destroy!!!*"

*sigh* heheheh. *grumble grumble*

goddammit.

A short amusing side story, I forgot to mention the other day. Past couple of nights, I've been having dinner at the Shalamar Diner here, a couple of blocks away from me.

The first night, as I'm finishing up, there's this tiiiny little old guy wandering around, like probably 90 years old, with a cane and a limp. But, a jaunty fedora hat upon his head, and a twinkle in his sharp blue eyes. He'd been hanging out and chatting with a group of his friends, and as he goes to leave, imparts a kind word to everyone he passes. And I mean everyone.

In the entire diner.

To my surprise though, most of them immediately respond in kind with, "G'night Danny, have a good one!" or some such. I take it then, that Danny is apparently a staple figure of this culinary establishment. And instead of being perhaps a bit of an amusing old kook, it is instead I who have wandered into his territory, and I should probably thus think of him with the appropriate deference.

So, he passes my table, and I'm just sitting there eating my burger. But, he actually stops! He turns full up to me, does a double-take, gives me an ocular once over, and exclaims, "You look good! Good lookin' boy!" *smile*

It's practically all I can do not to spit out my mouthful of sirloin right in his face from laughing. But I somehow say thank you, or something like that.

Then, this second time the other day, I'm up at the counter paying my check, right? And suddenly, Danny comes up behind, stares up at me, double-take wide eyed thing again, and goes, "Are you an Actor?" I'm laughing again, as I tell him no. And he bursts out with, "You're beautiful!"

"Good lookin' boy!"

lol. *facepaws* Wow... oh, wow.

You can't make shit like this up, folks! ;-P

***

Oh yes! And speaking of all that, on that first day, so I'm back sitting with my burger, right? And I start overhearing the conversation in the booth next to me, between a middle-aged gentleman in a suit, and a young teenaged kid (probably a nephew, I gathered). And their talking about various television shows.

And at one, point, I hear the word, "CSI". And CSI this version, and CSI that version, and "oh yeah, we've got one for like every day of the week now." I figure they're merely discussing how the old guy spends his time passed out in front of the TV.

And then I hear him say, "Oh no, I'm not going back to CBS tomorrow." And my attention perks up! I listen in more. It slowly dawns on me... that this guy *works* on the fucking thing!! ;-P

I start laughing to myself, and I quickly run through possible ways of humorously trying to interject something to the effect of... "Oh yeah, you know, me and the other PAFCon-ers saw that, and we too were deeply saddened by the loss of poor Rocky Racoon!"

Unfortunatly, I couldn't quite get up the nerve / find a good opening.

Ah well. Maybe next time ;-P

***

So, furmeet was great again last night.

Boomer ([livejournal.com profile] mightyomnivore) brought over a couple of things. Firstly, there was Jesus Christ - Vampire Hunter! ("The Power of Christ impales you!!!") This was a movie about a hip and happnin' Jesus, fighting off a band of blood-thirsty vampires, bent on ruling the world.

With Kung Fu.

And a Mexican wrestler.

Oh yeah, and it was a musical.

I'm told he also has some sort of Jesus zombie movie, as well. Jesus is killed, and, you know... rises from the grave and such.

Secondly, we watched Decampitated - a Troma spoof on all those slasher/horor kids-get-attacked-in-the-woods-on-a-camping-trip movie ever made. This one was actually really really funny (JCVH, though it sounds like it should be, was unfortunately mostly boring.), and it was of a vastly higher production quality than what Troma tends to produce. It was kind of a cross between a live action Scooby Doo, and Parker Lewis Can't Lose. Well, er... plus, you know, with mad crazy forest people trying to kill you. That was great. I really need to get a copy of that :)

Finally, I pulled out my DVD of Meet The Feebles. After watching the whole thing, Watcher ([livejournal.com profile] tigerman) still tried to deny that Sebastian the fox is gay. *facepaws* (Oh yeah, by the way, click on his fucking face in that above link, motherfucker! ;-P )

Damn, that Peter Jackson directed some really great stuff, before that whole Lord of the Rings thing! ;)

Next week, we may have to round up Dead Alive. "I kick ass for the Lord!!!" :)

***

Tomorrow morning, I am taking off of work to go to that protest rally in front of city hall, where again, Mayor Bloomber is purported to be introducing legislation for a city-wide ordinance banning the issuance of marriage licenses to gay people! In order to stave of anything similar to what is happening in San Francisco :-/

I know that Jess K, Turrent, and maybe a few others from Jersey will be coming, along with probably Peri, Justin, and [livejournal.com profile] city_of_dis. Anyone else want to join us, go down to city hall by 10 am, and/or give me a call on my cell: 917-596-7329.

***

That is all. (Though I'm sure it was plenty.) G'night for now, and catch yas on da flip side!

lol. Which, the Feebles? Hehehe, well... it's basically an extremely raunchy parody of The Muppet Show. (with sex, drugs, murder, etc. etc) It's very funny, and should be a staple of anyone's cult classic collection! :)

Okay, I'll comment on this one since I got bored about halfway through your exhaustively long and rambling LJ post.

You'd be amazed at how geeky 'regular people' can be. And I know plenty of furs who date mundanes, and even draft them into fandom on occasion. *nod*

Isn't it cool to like.. be brave vicariously through someone else? ;)

Yeah, but we already know you have ADD. Just take yer pills, bitch! ;-P

True enough. I'll try to be open to the possibility, and we'll see.

Yesh, deffinantly souds like youse is trying to atract someone with the "You don't want this" description. Most guys i'd know go for it. Hell i would, but is aleady mated :P.


I think i May have seen the Feebels on sundance once........but it may have been something else. The one i saw was basicaly a porn with animal puppents. I think the protagonist was a hedgehog or something. But yeah Peter Jackso is the man!!!


What yopu MUST MUST do,. is find his first movie. "BAd "Taste"

He fillemd it at home with his firneds and used his own money and camera, took him 4 years, quite a classic piece of Cinema and very limited to find. If you canm go for it!!!!

lol. Well, nice to be reminded that our world does exist out there, at least ;)

Yup, that sounds like that would have to be the one. Never get's old ;)

Yeah, I've heard of that one, still got to find a copy. I finally got around to seeing Dead Alive (which was hilarious). With Bad Taste, I should just about have my Jackson collection complete.

Bad taste is bloody awesome, he made it with his own money, his own friends and his home cam. He is a genious, i hope to be like him in the movie biz someday.

Not forgetting his Whollyweird debut, The Frighteners! I finally got around to watching that a few weeks ago, and was quite pleased I took the time to do so. It doesn't quite flow as well as it might, and I can imagine why it just didn't fly at the box office - it's not really a Hollywood film, with too much of Jackson's quirkiness. Thus, I thought it nifty. ^_^

Hm. I need to finish watching Divine Intervention sometime.. brilliant understated Palestinian/Israeli comedy, almost silent, with a good deal of Jacques Tati inspiration.

From: [identity profile] quentincoyote.livejournal.com

The Frighterns was a decent film, I though. In my opinion, that was Jackson basically testing out his new special effects and production facilities, in preparation for Lord of the Rings ;)

Another really good one by him you might want to check out is Heavenly Creatures (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110005/). That was the first one for which I really became aware of Jackson as a directing name. Which really made me laugh, wehn I subsequently saw Meet the Feebles and Dead Alive! ;-P

In any case, definitely give it a spin. Back before LOTR ever came out, I always used to tell people to go watch HC. It was the movie that would make you believe that Jackson was definitely the right man for the job :)

Date: 2004-04-27 05:33 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] quentincoyote.livejournal.com

Oh yeah, and Divine Intervention - Hmm, very very interesting! I'd never heard of it before, and never even though of the concept! May just definitely have to check that out.

Date: 2004-04-27 05:54 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] porsupah.livejournal.com
Speaking of which, maybe I should finish watching it now. ^_^ I was caught midway through.

It's definitely very much not a Hollywood film, which I suspect threw some people on their IMDb reviews - it's very gently paced indeed, with very little camera motion, either of the camera's location, or its viewpoint. So, the scenes are left to speak for themselves - it's character driven, yet not dialogue driven, if that makes much sense. Despite the setting, it offers up some beautifully hilarious moments.

Anyway - yes, a good one. It's one which turned up in the local library, and the jacket synopsis drew me in. (Same library which also offered up Tarkovsky's Solaris, Stalker, and Nostalghia - and the DVD of Mr. Nice..)
