Thank you. If you get a chance, watch Gates of Heaven, a doc by Errol Morris, about a pet cemetery being moved from Los Altos to Napa valley (might have been Sonoma, forget now). One of Roger Ebert's favorite movies. The owner at one point says "you can say something to my face, but if I turn my back to you, I can't…

My dog got his throat ripped out by another dog, a German Shepherd down the street who got loose. No humans were near. My aunt and uncle were the owners, who never taught their dog to be aggressive. I don't expect this will get any likes but it explains my ambivalence to statements like this.

"you have cancer WHAT???"

The Onion is from the great city of Chicago, which just happens to have a certain sports team we call…Da Bears. Mini-Hannitys vs. Mini-Ditkas? Mini-Ditkas, 83-zip.

This is the guy who said we don't have to worry about global warming, because in millions of years the sun will engulf the earth. So, most likely not. On second thought, I see where you're going there…

Eh B'y, I'm not hearing any accent, you know. (I love hearing that being spoken, my favorite Canadian accent by far)

Winnipeg has Guy Maddin. Lifetime pass. They also have the Manitoba Legislative Building, one of the weirdest buildings ever built.

DeSoto Cab was a huge business, had been around since the 30s. It cost $250,000 to get a taxi medallion and it had a 10 year waiting list. That business just evaporated seemingly overnight, and now there is a waiting list to sell them. Blue DeSoto Cabs were everywhere.

But enough about my wife…where's everyone going?

My wife bought a nightstand for 40 yuan, which is about six dollars. Then she saw the quality of it and took the money back.

As a motorcyclist, their full-wave bridged rectifiers were top notch and about one-third the price of buying it at a motorcycle shop.

I was in Northeast China this winter. My wife's family were looking for a dresser for her mom. Next to a regular furniture store was the saddest store I've ever seen in my life. It was off a small alley, was about 30 x 40 feet, and had a tiny attached living space. We went in there and it had the worst quality…

Treasure Island is such an awesome book for kids. It's got buried treasure, an alkie suffering from the DTs, murder, pirates, sailing and adventure. I still re-read it from time to time.

The lead-in to Dark Star is one of my favorite lead-ins of all music.

Yeah they should do that ad the opposite way: take the badges off the Beemer, and most people would say "Toyota".

Duff Man… Can't… Breathe!

3-record scratch. 4-dog covers eyes. 5-bouncy ska music.

You mean the ones fighting for Assad? They've been a bit gassy lately.

With the letta opena of death in his lifeless hand. Accounts Payabo finally got to him.

Enough money and resources to plan to crash two full passenger planes into a skyscraper, leaving 3,000 dead…I hardly think that an entire family can be blamed for a single slip-up.
