8.31.99
One day we will present an All-Shatner Edition of
LystWorthy...but unfortunately, today is not that day.
Hey, we're mentioned on the world-famous
EatonWeb site! LystWorthy can now be found in
semi-alphabetical order on their most excellent listing
of
yummy tasty blogs...
And now we gotta show and prove, so throw your hands in
the air and wave them in a motion that would indicate a
certain apathy on your part, and prepare for an Incredible Journey ov Links!!!
or something.
More Fun With CapAlert
I see the Brunching Shuttlecocks have also discovered CapAlert's movie
reviews...
Not Counting What's In Theaters Now
Speaking of movie reviews, here's a subjective list of "The 100
Worst Movies of All Time"...
"Church of the Heavenly Wood"
Speaking of bad movies, here's a religious site dedicated to that
patron saint of eccentric directors, Edward D. Wood, Jr.
Whole Lotta Benny
Speaking of religion, here's a page with a buncha links dedicated to
debunking one of my favorite tv personalities, "Pastor Benny" Hinn.
Mind Control HOWTO
Speaking of Pastor Benny, have a look at Dick Sutphen's "The Battle
For Your Mind" and you too could have a lucrative televangelistic career!
McGyver: Fake TV Stuff, Or REAL?
Speaking of...anyway, this site answers the burning question: would
all that stuff McGyver made actually work in "real life"?
What Would Elvis Do?
Indeed. Coulda used this one a couple of weeks ago in our Special
Elvis Edition, but it's never too late for a hunka hunka Elvisian
soul searching...
8.30.99
I know: every day, along with these insightful and maiming-edge links, we'll have a song--no wait, an MP3--about all the stuff we learned today from
said links..just like
Fat Albert! Here we go:
You ask if Dayne's loved by the Lyst?
Was John Galt an Objectivist?
Does music by Orrin Hatch exist?
Is Lucas a Libertarian apologist?
Or something. Perhaps a bit less Seussian in its eventual
form, but, y'know, hey. Send money so I can quit my yob and
do this full time, whee!
Let the liiiinks...BEGIN.
The Bell Jar-Jar
Another in our Scholarly Discourse series, this time taking on the
economic 'n' political implications of "The Phantom Menace".
Music from Screaming Lord Sutch
Andrew from pitas.com found this one. Apart from the "this man is
a *real life* Austin Powers!" quote, it's a nice collection of sound
files from Screaming Lord Sutch, with an all star cast.
(and, if you're into music by politicians, this'll do ya
better than Orrin Hatch...)
Sapphic Soldier Sistahs
We have heard tales of the Lesbian Mafia here on the Lyst, and
now the TRVTH can finally be revealed, apparently. Pope?
Showdown at Galt's Gulch!
hahaha. "Atlas Shrugged--The Video Game". I'm still laughing.
"As the game begins, the player gets a job as a reporter trying to uncover
the facts behind the mysterious disappearances of famous industrialists,
Dagny Taggart, Hank Rearden and Ellis Wyatt. It is the
"story of the millennium." A quest to discover the answer to the biggest
question of the day--Who is John Galt? The player will be "on the
scene" and trying to figure out what happened to all the
industrialists and inventors of the world."
More from Dayniac Mansion
Awrite, quick don't think: what's Taylor Dayne's real name?
"PLAY SOME SKYNYRD! WOOO! Fray-BIRRD!"
"The Music of Senator Orrin Hatch." Duuuude.
Weekend Edition - 8.27-29.99
Should be a quiet weekend here. Still working on "Bonham
Street", my band's CD featuring the late Led Zep drummer John Bonham (we have the technology). Saw "Rushmore"; you
should too--it's wonderful. And locally I see that "The Iron Giant" has disappeared from the Movies 8, despite my
fevered evangelizing. Oh well.
Glad to be of help on Meg's cricket question...
Anybody watch the
Bristol
race Sat night? Awww, it was great...vintage Dale.
People are pissed, but whatdja expect? We're
talkin' about the Intimidator here...
OK, links are GO!
Add two more Roshambo throws? NOOO!
Somebody is trying to alter the Roshambo Holy Trinity again.
Dammit, these folks are as bad as the NHL! Just leave the
game alone, and let the rock/paper/scissors decide as they
have for thousands of years, mmmkay? (I kinda like the "Spock"
gambit, tho...)
Another Place For Your Schitt
20 megs free space, woo-hoo! Only caveats are banner ads on the pages
and 1 email spam per week, but you can live with that...
The Boxing Dude Was MUCH Cooler
Behind the sleazy scenes with crap-rockers Sugar Ray. Ahh,
the music biz.
More Apocalyptic Signage
"Behold the left tit, with Johnny Depp's autograph."
"Billy eats leaf, cries"
"Blair Witch" web parodies are starting to rival "Ate My Balls"
pages in their sheer ubiquity. Nevertheless, we present yet another one,
and we wouldn't have bothered if it sucked: "The Blair Family Circus
Project".
Prison, aka Crime School
"When They Get Out" explores recent US policy of locking everybody
up, and its consequences. Nice related links in the left column too.
Crush Grooves Redux
Related topic: the first victim of Crush Video Hysteria is
arrested! How many millions wasted? How many lives destroyed?
How many small animals squooshed?
Friday August 27
Recovering from last night's gig, in which my band played
the county fair and only managed to destroy
- one guitar strap
- one PA speaker
Oh well...there's always FallFest on 9/12. With our new
drummer, we're finally back to finding that groove again!
You know, that frozen moment where the instruments take over
and play themselves...
http://www.wheresgeorge.com/
I feel almost obligated to include this one, 'cause it's fun and also
'cause it's on every blog in the world. Enter serial numbers from US
cash and marvel at the stories they tell...
General Lee Speaking
Cooter from "The Dukes of Hazzard" retires from his political career
to open a museum dedicated to the late great TV show. Them Dukes, them
Dukes...
http://browsers.evolt.org/
Cool! A download archive of web browsers. *Lots* of 'em. Handy!
http://news.excite.com/news/r/990826/19/space-water
From the "Plankton From The Sea!" department: water is discovered
inside that meteorite those kids found recently here in Texas.

This woman needs to seek out the fry machines at the SAM.
I feel her pain. Nothing worse than bad fries...

"The insider's edge on job search and hiring." Great if you're
yearning for a new yob.
http://www.demonbuster.com/
Be careful when accessing this wonderfully hilarious fundie site:
"We have received almost daily reports that when someone wants to
open our web site or print our material, their printer or the computer malfunctions and will not print or download.
Two demons specifically assigned to cause malfunctions
in electronic equipment are BOYCE and BOICE.
Bind them up in the name of Jesus, and
tell them to leave your equipment."
(Little tech support tip for ya there...)
