It started out as mayonnaise and, well, time makes fools of us all.

AY NARANJAS EN LA CABEZA!!!

I just happened to turn on TCM the other night, and what was on but The Fastest Guitar Alive, Roy Orbison's first and last attempt to move into the movie business. As an actor, he's a mighty fine singer.

It didn't work, 1980 David Bowie from the music video "Ashes to Ashes".

Robin Williams in Jumanji.
Tim Allen in The Santa Clause (although it grows back immediately afterwards).

The layout of the Cafe Americain is completely inconsistent! I hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Cannery Row, by John Steinbeck. I have read my original copy almost to pieces, and there is not a single line or passage that I would alter.

A self-enlightened douchebag
Remains a douchebag still.
And though he tries to halt our cries
We call him "douchebag" ceaselessly until
Our hearts are satisfied.

Wait a minute! Bowie was lying about that great time in Cincinnati!

Apropos of nothing, here is Will Self as Crocodile Dundee:

Sid Waddell?

He was making up for Clive Anderson, who has no neck at all.

Is that from the people who made Two Mules for Sister Sara?

What about the 10,000 Maniacs? Don't they get a say too?

Is "forbid" what the 17 year olds are calling it these days? And can God really be cast out in that manner?

So, an Oregon State man then?

What power?

Well, Malaysia and Australia have an on-off spat going back 20 years, starting when Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating described the then Malaysian leader as "recalcitrant". It went downhill from there.

Indeed there was; Love Thy Neighbour.

Harrumph!
