11.1.99
Fun weekend. Travel, music, blah blah blah.

Tomorrow's events may change the face of LW as we know it! (Rest assured that this would be a...positive thing, if so.)

Developing...

10.28-31.99
Gotta get 'em in before another lost weekend...

Woo-hoo! Hawks win! Hawks win! The requisite much rejoicing ensues at LW.

We share our Hoyt Axton Memorial Haiku with you:

    hoyt sang that he had
    never been to heaven, but
    he can't say that now.
With that, we give you a week's worth of discussion, distilled into URL form under the noses of those pesky revenooers:

Hunka Hunka Burnin' Linx
Wow! Seems like everything's been on the Lyst this week rather than LystWorthy; however, we aim to rectify this with a rainbow burst of URL yumminess. So whatcha want? more mp3 sites, brainwashing, Hands on a Hard Body (rent it!), Hitler and the Thule Society, Gnip Gnop and the Milgram experiments, Beatle George's "My Sweet Lord" lawsuit, the late great Hoyt Axton, the Elvis/Jesus connection and impending religious Presley paradigm shift, Godwin's Law, and the trVth of funk. IOW, another week on the Lyst...

In any case, that oughta provide you some mighty fine readin', whatever your skewed tastes might lean toward. Hurry before the archives claim 'em!

10.22-26.99
Holidays observed during this period: "October Bank Holiday" in Ireland (10.25) and "National Day" in Austria (10.26). To our hordes of LW'ers in both nations: hope yours is a festive one, as we always do.

Got the Tretiak jersey from eBay today, whee! He's like Obi-Wan to Eddie, and we all play the hardest position in all of sports...just ask my drummer, who tried it this weekend. heh.

Ward, I'm worried about these links:

Heraclitus: The Dude Rocks, Man.
"Everything is fire, baby...and don't you forget it."

Star Wars As Religion
Well, duh...'specially if you're familiar with, say, Joseph Campbell or Taoism. Still, ya gotta cover all sides, and we already explored Star Wars as Evil, so...

10.21.99
Have you said howdy ho to your Plastic Govt Pals Who Are Fun To Be With today? This is about all we can bring ourselves to indulge in today at LW, after yesterday's draining events.

Or, as the inimitable MC Hammer once wrote, "We got to pray just to make it today." Or something.

10.20.99
Gray Kitty has moved on. LW is in mourning today. Thanks for everything, GK. We won't ever forget.

10.19.99
Ok, forget I even mentioned that game yesterday. Argh! Although that last play was fun for a few seconds...

Hey, it could be worse. At least The Boys have won a game or two this year, unlike my beloved Blackhawks.

No, we haven't gone to the one-daily-entry format just yet. The true explanation: we are lazy at LystWorthy...but only temporarily so. (Yeah, right.)

10.15-18.99
Been on the turntables all weekend, in one place or another. Not that I'm complaining.

The Boys play on MNF tonight. IMHO, MNF is suffering with one less person in the booth; prime time football is better with three commentators, especially if their styles work together like Cosell and Dandyroo's used to. C'mon ABC, put Berman in the booth with 'em or something.

10.14.99
Oooh, N'Sync sued for $150 million! Karmic retribution from yesterday's LW? Oh well, we repeat: do it yourself...just save some $ for when you get sued.

Breaker one-nine! Y'all got your ears on? We got the stop foot up and the go foot down, 10-4. (Slang--not just for breakfast anymore--takes many forms...)

10.13.99
Stuff that was here, but now isn't, still Is; the true seeker of the Path is encouraged to consult the mystic Archives for further "enlightenment".

"Hey, we have some b-boy moves, you guys!"

Hot link-link action:

Burt Reynolds: True or False?
I remember how huuuge Burt was in my childhood; people lined up around the block for his movies. This is a nice breakdown of the filmic exploits of the inimitable Gator McCluskey. And Burt's influence on today's culture? Noted.

Music: Does it have to suck?
No, it most certainly does not. The wise man once said there are no problems, but only solutions. Want to be a pop star anyway? This classic text shows you how! Read it, know it, live it.

LystWorthy is an email based weblog that we repost here at Pitas, on a time schedule that varies between pseudo-daily and semi-diurnally...
* * *
We get stuff from all over--things we find, news, other blogs, etc. to amuse a small group of malcontents. If you feel like something here was ripped off from you, relax; it's just a blog...otherwise, feel free to just come down here and kill us.

I'm your host, the Doctor; I'm your Doctor, the host. If you have any questions, perhaps you will find answers from the Lyst, or you can always give me a holler; I have been known to reply on occasion.

And stuff.
