burnin up with fever

I was boiling a couple of eggs just now and I leaned in too close to the burner. I caught the front of my hoodie on fire. So I started dancing all around the kitchen.

“Whoa-ho-ho.” Bruce Springsteen! I’m on fire.

After a few seconds it dawned on me that my clothing was, in fact, in flames and the song changed to Fugazi: “We gotta put it out. We gotta put it out. We gotta put it out. MY HOODIE’S BURNING.”

I thought about dousing myself with some of the water from the pot on the stove. Yeah sure, I could just dump boiling water all over myself. That would ruin brunch. In the end I just blew on it a lot.

I blew out the flames leaving behind the acrid smell of molten synthetics along with a hole in the front pocket of my hoodie. I guess I won’t be carrying Skittles around in this pocket any more. I suspect I could probably still fit a boiled egg in there. Subsequent testing shows this to be correct.

I spent this weekend alone in Gaspereau Forks and I barely left the house. Wind is howling like a bastard. I watched a movie. After the movie was over, I watched the credits. Hundreds of people worked on this movie. It’s hard to believe.

It’s hard to believe there could be dozens of people standing around on the film set, and not one of them has the minerals to tap the director on the shoulder and say, “Umm really, that’s a bit too cheesy. In fact you probably shouldn’t even film this scene at all.” People on film sets get paid tremendous amounts of money by mortal standards, but apparently it’s not enough to care.

~ I’d like to offer a warm welcome to all the German visitors to swordfight.org. I just want to make sure you know, there are no pictures of Hitler on this website.

I don’t normally post about search engine requests. Yes, we all know by now that the Internet is full of crazy crazy people. But I’ve been getting so much traffic from the German version of Google because of this post. It was one of those things that you write and it’s funny for five minutes then you forget about it, and the post itself doesn’t even have any pictures, just in the comments there’s a link to a picture of Ilsa She-Wolf Of The SS, and I’m not even hosting the image, it’s a link to a picture on amazon.com, so it makes no sense, but anyway I’m closing comments on that post because I’m tired of deleting comments from people with email addresses like meinkampf@aol.com. Thanks!

For a while there I was showing up on the front page of GIS for “Jim Morrison.” The killers awoke at dawn over that one. There must be some rule that says when you join the Doors fan club, your sense of humour has to be left scattered on dawn’s highway bleeding.

The thing is, nowhere did I say that Jim Morrison wasn’t a spiritual leader and a (cough) great poet. All I did was photoshop his head so his eyes were crossed. And I made his head slightly too big for his body. Big deal!

But it wound up with all these hippies in Paris throwing rocks at the Canadian embassy.

Jim morrison.

OLE CANDYMAN

“A mind once stretched by an idea, never again regains its original dimension ;)”

In My Own Words:
Welcome to Candyland. I will advise you that Ole Candy Man has the spontaneity of a child, coupled with high intensity, that enhances with age. The balance of my traits will be in direct relation to what you project and/or want to experience. To me life is a large sexual experience just begging to be explored. You are its director. Open minded and fueled by our chemistry, where will it take us?

  1. Re: youcouldbetheone … John Mazerolle just had a nice satirical piece two Here magazines ago talking about NBers on Lavalife. Link here.

    To take this excercise in delicious cruelty even further, I suppose you could start calling out folks who live right around the corner … tho maybe this would result in Phil Clark found in Gaspereau Forks, dead in a trunk, film at 11 …. Better yet, how about creating a similarly fucked-up profile on lavalife and posting any replies you get?
