40s on Nov 12?

I’ll be in Austin the weekend of Nov 11-12, so all I need to know is “Where’s 40s?” Having Casey and then Dirty move away has been a real blow, but I trust the torch has remained burning. Timequest?

Gymkata now available!

Just received note from Amazon.com that Gymkata will now be available on DVD as of 30 Jan 2007. For only $14.

Dust off the pommel horse.

slight delay in the Down Undah 40s Krewe

OK, so I found a place and move in on Thursday. I think that there is a DVD player. If not, I’ll find one for cheap. Then, I’ll have to initiate the 40(N)z krewe. Suggestions to deflower the kiwis — cinematically, of course.

Still looking for metric 40s.

Including Pics in Posts

A few people have asked how to include images in posts, so here’s how:

To include a pic that’s hosted somewhere else, just click the Insert Image button (looks like a tree) above the post box and paste in the URL.

To include a pic from your computer, use the Upload tab on the posting page to upload it, then on the Browse tab (which appears after you upload something), click on the image and select “Send to editor” from the pop-up menu. The pop-up menu also allows you to control stuff like whether to include a thumbnail or the original image, and whether the image should also be a link to the image or the page. You should select these options before you “Send to editor”.

SNAKES ON A PLANE!

So did anyone catch parts of the MTV Movie Awards last night, interlaced with the Mavs winning?

Well Samuel L. Jackson had the funniest little monologue. Upon announcing this year’s Best Movie award, he guaranteed that SNAKES ON A PLANE will win Best Movie next year. (Watch Samuel L. Jackson Clip Here.)

“The new James Bond…No snakes in that!
Ocean’s 13…Where my snakes at?!”

“No movie shall triumph over SNAKES ON A PLANE unless I happen to feel like making a movie called: More Mother Fuckin’ Snakes On More Mother Fuckin’ Planes!”

MMFSOMMFP!

SNAKES ON A PLANE is now synonymous with the phrase “sh!t happens!”
-Snakes on a Blog
-Urban Dictionary
-Wikipedia
-Museum of Hoaxes
-Village Voice

I have Tourette’s, and so I randomly shout out that phrase at work. SNAKES ON A PLANE! They’re finally getting used to it though…

The Evolving Look of This Blog

Due to some functional problems with the previous visual theme of the blog (and the fact that I couldn’t easily figure out how to change it since it was internally in German), I have changed to a new one. Eventually we’ll customize it to look more 40’s specific. Julian? ;-)
