This week on Survivor...
I pretty much agree with this guy's assessments. Boran was a bunch of MORONS for pouring out their water (Hello? You're in AFRICA!), and in general I don't think I like them. It was obnoxious of Jeff to ignore that Diane (also known as Big Bird, TM Joanna of MBTV) was passing out after the challenge. And yeah, Clarence, talking nice at Tribal Council really wasn't working for ya. He'll be out as soon as the strength becomes a liability.

Continuing on the Boran slice-and-dice train of thought, Clarence seems awfully dumb and naive even beyond his food kleptoness (Scary Hairett reminds you of your mother?). If he wasn't all Mr. Muscles he'd be out. He doesn't seem like he'll win on intelligence, and it's very bad to be naive. Glad to see Diane go, as you already figured out ;) I couldn't stand looking at her head for all those weeks! Tom is an utter asshole and vengeful to boot. I would NOT want to be around him at all. And Ethan's very paranoid, which is rather freaky. Don't want to hang around him either.

As for Samburu, Frank's a dick, as I expected (What was with that American branch answer? Rude much?). He's like Mike's evil twin. Brandon is a total walking stereotype so far, which bugs me. Linda is already preachy and that whole "How dare you disrespect Mother Africa" thing was annoying. Geez, if it really offends you, how about you fill in people as to what the tamponesque word really meant or something? Kim seems smart/nice. Other than that I don't feel too clear on impressions of everyone yet. It's hard to get into the first week of Survivor, I think, because you're trying to learn about 16 people altogether at once. A few weeks into it you know the score more and can tell the difference between all the blonde chicks.

This book teaches you how to have sex in an airplane toilet.
I'm tempted to at least pick it up and flip through it in a store, mainly because I've never been able to figure out how you do that. I mean, I can barely fit ME into those things, and I'm little! The only person I met who admitted to sex in the sky said she sat on her boyfriend's lap with him unzipped in their regular seats. I'm not sure which is more unbelieveable.

In which Michael Moore gets quite snarky.
Among other things, he comments on how "America Strikes Back" is an homage to George Lucas and wants Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and Orrin Hatch to enlist. (Note to Mr. Moore: Go buy "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot." Flip to the chapter called "Operation Chickenhawk" to get a sense of what this would er, be like. You'll wet your pants laughing.)

And I feel kinda weird commenting on this about Rush with the hearing thing going on, but since Chickenhawk was funny, I'll leave it in. It sort of makes the same point.

Yeah, the anthrax released in Florida was probably deliberate.

A British woman whose husband died in the WTC now no longer qualifies to be in the US (fucked up paperwork has slowed down the legality process for her, apparently) and they want to deport her, though her kids (born here) are allowed to stay. Boy, does that piss me off. I did think it was sweet that her town's police chief and fire brigade chief are wanting to barricade/guard the house if the INS tries to take her out.

Never mind, they're leaving her alone. Phew!

Comedy College: The Radio Show
A new series profiling comedians and showing off their best bits. Right now Bill Cosby's up, featuring bits of bathing in the toilet and the infamous "Chicken Heart" story. (For those of you who haven't heard the latter, it is HILARIOUS.)

Monday, October 8, 2001
This is such a sad, soul-sucking thing.
I mentioned the "Bully Broads" thing awhile back, where tough businesswomen were sent to seminars to make them more feminine so they wouldn't piss off men for well, acting like men. (Which, pardon me, is how I've heard women are supposed to act in order to succeed in business, since men don't like all that touchy-feely-girly stuff and they are the ones ususally in charge. I've heard stuff like that all my life.) However, I had no idea it was THIS BAD. Hell, my heart was breaking for these women reading this stuff.

The biyotch who teaches the class not only encourages the predictable things to make women conform to female stereotypes (smile, be softer), she tells them to rip on themselves, stammer and cry at work. (And they wonder why many women have self-esteem issues?!)

A woman who's working on a treatment for MS patients got forced to go to BB. People refused to work with her on this purely because they thought she came on too strong. Speaking as someone who has had 2 out of 3 aunts come down with MS, one of whom died of it before she hit 30, this really really pisses me off. Putting your own feelings ahead of the major goal of helping sick people? In the class, she was told to be so demure she felt sick.

Another woman who has rejected the program and seems to be doing well on her own said that the most common complaint against her was that she didn't say hi to coworkers in the hall. (What is this, middle school?) She pointed out that there were men there who didn't know half the names of the people on their floor, and that was perfectly okay.

Another woman said that if you don't offer people the chance to rip on you in public, it just leads to them being madder and madder at you. Um, yeah, because they can't just bully YOU down and pick on you, that's why. Otherwise they can feel smug and look down on you.

The most tragic story of all is the story of Helen, who still doesn't feel at all natural having to behave like Miss Demeanor. She clearly sounds miserable, AND has now lost 80 percent of her sales! But now people at the company actually like her, as opposed to when she used to actually make them money. Of course now she's slipped down the ladder of succession. I cannot believe that they'd rather have an employee who's a nice little girl who can't get much work done instead of someone who may not be that pleasant to deal with, but makes them a lot of money. That horrifies me. Was there no compromise between the two SOMEWHERE?

Stuck Tune Syndrome
Y'all know what this is, I'm sure. But why does it happen? The theories here are (a) some songs have a "cognitive itch" that kinda force you to keep replaying it in your head, (b) there's something unusual in the music, (c) the song repeats a lot, (d) the song is simple. How to cure it? Play something else, find something else to do, or pass the song along to others. (Reminds me of the ex saying that singing the Smurfs theme song or the Chili's baby back ribs commercial would get rid of a song... of course, then you're stuck with one of those in your head.

I'm amused to see the reference to a John Cage work, "As Slow as Possible," which is "currently" being performed. It consists of a 16 month silence, one chord played on January 5, 2003 (is someone going to actually do this, I wonder?), then more silence, another chord played on July 5, 2004, then silence again until the final chord is played- in 639 years. What can I say, Cage is strange.

Monday, October 8, 2001
Oh yeah. Be cool to go on this trip!
Stay in a castle for awhile, playact that you're from various times in history...oh yeah. The annoying thing, other than the fantastic cost, is that (a) it's couples only, and (b) there's a competition, apparently for guys only, as to who can be the most authentic. Whoever wins gets a title that they can pass down to their son. Well, that ruins the fun of the competition for the girls then, doesn't it?

Three tribes of three, not one tribe of nine on newest Survivor
I'm honestly not sure why they'd want to befoul the alliances so much by doing this. Not that I've seen this far or know anything, and I'm sure they had to find a way to liven the show up somehow, but how on earth can you win from here, I don't know. Baffled.

Surviiivor.com has compiled a boot sheet based on what rumors they've heard so far as to who lost weight/got new hairdos/etc. Diane, known to me as Scary Hairiet, is already giving off the bad vibes to others besides me, and apparently Kelly once refused to go on a camping trip in high school. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...

Lex's tattooes are way ugly. They're kinda freaking me out and I can't say I'm looking forward to seeing them for an hour per week. (Why couldn't he have auditioned for the Outback where it actually got cold?) Still beats Bunky's back hair, though.

Does anyone have any idea what these people are talking about? It sounds like some sort of Ellipsis Brain Trust conspiracy theory or something, but I'm lost.

Poor Rush.
He started losing his hearing at an amazing fast rate and will soon be deaf. Sounds like he's going to try to continue on anyway, don't know how though. I'm not his biggest fan or anything, but that's pretty crappy to have happen.

I think I know why Bush went deaf, incidentally. Apparently if you take way too much Vicodin you have the exact same symptoms/problem Rush is having right now, and it's irreversible/unstoppable. Not that I know for sure he was taking it or for what, but it does make you wonder, especially since he declined to state what his theory was.

Everyone was like oh, yeah, okay, and then went back to daily life.

These transcripts of bin Laden's speech are confusing.
My heart sank when I read the line you'll find in the above link about how every Muslim shall support his religion. This transcript says every Muslim must rush to make his religion victorious. Man, all the Muslims in this country are going to get treated like crap even more after this.

Sunday, October 7, 2001
This is a first for me.
I'm actually (gasp!) approving of something Bush did. Dropping food and supplies in Afghanistan too. That is really nice. And while I didn't see this speech live (being a Sunday in California, I was sleeping), I'm approving of what I read about how we're friends of Muslims, just not this certain bunch.

Emmys canceled for the first time ever.
I'm betting that someone somewhere said "I can't believe Bush picked TODAY to start bombing! Crap on a caviar platter!" (Or something like that, anyway.)

According to this above link, they're canceled, but the stuff I've found today indicates that there'd be a huge financial loss if they didn't do it. You know what that means, folks...attempt #3. Though I really wish they wouldn't do it. I don't know anyone who really cares or wants to see the Emmys anyway, and it's not like we don't know who's going to win (same people as always).

New articles on the subject: I enjoyed this one saying that the Emmys were canceponed. It also asked why they didn't just film the Emmy ceremonies and rerun them later- not high enough ratings doing that, apparently. But then again, we could have gotten that crap over with instead of debating whether or not to try to do it all over again.

Others in the industry are wanting to not bother with the Emmys- that's including nominees- because with the way things are changing by the minute, it's getting pretty futile. Some suggest doing an "Emmy luncheon" or a "mini-Emmy's". A decision is supposed to happen in the next 72 hours.

Boondocks rocks the house
I haven't been reading the comics section for a good long while (98% of strips just are not interesting to me any more), but The Boondocks has been putting out some funny shit, like the above-linked one about how America is all about blind unquestioning faith in our almost-elected leaders. I like how Huey is still resisting the bandwagon mentality- not that I ever thought he'd jump on one, really, but it's nice to see those who don't cave to "Bush is great! Bush is great! Polly wanna cracker!" behavior. Let's keep some level of judgement going, folks, so we don't lose the ability to have it.

And I'm totally amused by the strips that start here when Huey calls the FBI's "anonymous" terrorist tip line. Keep reading the days after it too, he's making good points.

On the same comic theme, Doonesbury has been asking what kind of God allows this. I realize that yeah, Trudeau basically got to wrap up that big question in three panels or less, but I don't think saying God doesn't condone or cause suffering and loss is answering the question at all. The question was, if God is supposedly all powerful and can do whatever he wants, then why does he allow this to happen? He may not agree with it happening, but why doesn't he do anything about it? Doesn't exist? Lack of powers? Lack of caring? Who knows?

The most amusing part of this to me is the end part about how the diet industry is suffering because nobody's interested in eating salad and measuring portions at a time like this.

On a similar life's too short theme, Lisa Marie Presley and Nicolas Cage now want to get married. What amuses me in this is the Cage has a record of quickie romantic notions section, where it goes on about how he got J.D Salinger's autograph for his soon-to-be-ex-wife just so he could ask her out, then they break up two weeks later, etc.

(My god, this is my second sports-related post ever. What's wrong with me?)

This is the only article I've seen around that even addresses an issue that we've had at work for awhile: on the one hand, cool record setting. On the other hand...it's done by a snothead who's rude most of the time. (One of our sportswriters has been known to yell at Barry's fans for adoring him when he disses them. They don't care.) I'm just not "Yay Barry Bonds!" about it. I like McGuire, he's at least nice, ditto Sosa. However, this article pretty much winds up with "You gotta love Barry now" anyway. *sigh*

Spoilers for the book Narcissus in Chains
Here are also major spoilers for the Hamilton books to come too. Just keep clicking the "next page" links for more and more info. (I have no idea if any of y'all read this series or not, but I'm going to go on about it for a bit. Feel free to look somewhere else if this isn't your teabag or whatever.) So being the Laurell K. Hamilton fan I am, I recently signed up for a discussion list, mainly because her newest book is coming out. And man. It is harsh there. Some people with advance copies are badmouthing it to hell and back and saying everything has been trashed, etc. (Kind of annoying to hear before I can even get the book on Tuesday!) I'm going to stay fairly neutral on the issues until I actually read the book and see if I like how she handled things and see if they got to that point in a reasonable manner (as opposed to just "oh, we're going to bring Darla back from the dead as a human" kinda crap). So far there's one thing I am confused about, one thing that um, doesn't sound good, and one thing that sounds great to me. The last one of those I'm going to SPOILER in order to go on about it, as there's just no way to vague it up for innocent eyes. If you read the books, you'll know who I mean. I'll try not to drop the name in the next few lines, but that's the best I can do. So here we go. If you don't want to know, STOP READING NOW!

Okay. I've never been all that thrilled with a certain fellow who can't seem to handle his monster issues. Yes, I understand he very much did not want to become a were. I wouldn't want to either. I can understand the confusion between is he human/is he animal/or what. I can understand not wanting to kill someone even though as a werewolf you pretty much have to at some point, especially in his case where the only way to depose the bad guys running his pack was to kill them off and take over (and presumably, Richard was the only one strong enough to do it). But in all honesty, at some point, especially given the aforementioned bad-leader situation, you do have to get some kind of acceptance of your beast, resign yourself to killing, and for the love of God get over yourself. People are going to get tortured/raped/forced to be in pornos/etc. until you do. When your personal shit is starting to interfere with everyone else- people are going to continue to suffer because you can't off someone you know is bad- you can end up with a Hamlet situation, you dig?
I will say that to his credit, he seems to have been working towards some level of acceptance of the situation. And I've read the first six chapters of the new book, which indicated that things were improving. However, I have heard that in this book, things with Richard and Anita go kaput, he gets suicidal, she finds another were to boink, etc. Which in all honesty surprises me given the progress made in earlier books. I was figuring at this point that the triumvirate would be learning to work together in this one, not fracture (especially given that those marks holding them together aren't real breakable). It surprises me in a plot sense that now would be the time for the author to decide "okay, Richard's not going to get over his crap and accept himself and Anita, she'll stay with Jean-Claude because he does accept her and ditch Richard." Realistically, the time for that was a few books ago. But then again, I've never been a Richard fan. Like I said, I get the point of his character, but at some point the dude has to get over himself, and he sucks ass at it. So I'm not hugely crying in my beer to hear their relationship is ending. (I'm a Jean-Claude fan, what can I say? Bring on the French vampire hunka hunka luv god.) I would have been delighted to have heard this earlier, but oh well, I'll take what I can get.
But what brought this on, you ask? I found here some interesting insights into the author's personal life that er, shed some major light on this decision to er, character assassinate Richard (as people on that list were saying). Originally she had set Richard up as "the guy Anita was going to marry" and kill off Jean-Claude, and she's always said in the past that Richard was her favorite (she just can't seem to get rid of JC). While she claimed earlier that she doesn't really base characters off people, I got the sense that Richard was based on her husband. And...she is now divorced with a fiance! She said that Richard was planned to be the perfect man for her (Laurell), and she later realized that she herself had changed, then makes some comments that her ex had wanted a Betty Crocker wife and Laurell isn't one. Hmmmmmm.... real life influence much?

Puffy won't learn to shut up about it already!
Puffy, I've said this before, I'm gonna say it again: I understand you're not over J.Ho. I can relate that it's hard to get over someone, especially when they find someone new a week later and then drag them across the tabloids. I'm not gonna demand that you get over it right this second, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SHE JUST MARRIED SOMEBODY ELSE! You have got to keep your trap shut in public about your J.Ho issues, especially now! Don't throw hissy fits in interviews and DO NOT admit that you wrote a song about her!

Okay, in his defense if you read the article, he is trying to er, vague it up some so he doesn't sound quite so pathetic. But still, if I were him, I wouldn't have admitted it had anything to do with her in the first place.
