11232241.1Danged if he didn't do it again. See my Tue, Feb 5, 2008. I'm not going to beat up on him, The Curious Capitalist. After all, he's stuck with being one of about 11 million Jasons around the same age. His name is Justin. Huh? Justin Fox. Oh .. well, same difference. Anyway, he's gotten his mill-bill-trill confused again, and again in TIME magazine. Bad enough when I do it, or similar, in my little blog Which No One Ever Reads, Ever. He does do witty financial reportage though, with some of the headlines going all-onionesque when needed, which in Moneyworld is often. Rick Macherat
11232240.1Ladies with something something. Way back on Tuesday, March 4, 2003 I made a blog entry which happened to include "something-something-deleterd .. sorry" wordage in no context whatsoever. Since then, it has been the phrase which leads more people to this place than any other. Only fitting, don't you think, that we should provide something .. something for the searchers? I know, how about a picture ..
No? Well anyway, if you'd like to get this Demi look, try the Orbit Salon in Austin. Your hair will rock, or so they say. There wasn't that much deleted the last time I was in Austin, even on men. In fact, most of the guys in town at that particular time were there for the express purpose of evading ... err avoiding that particular look and wearing it to Southeast Asia.
Anyway, hope you fellows find just the right gal for you!Rick Macherat
11232239.1Clearing up a bit of confusion. There has been some discussion about Crank That Ironman. I've maintained that the performance of Ghostface Killah comes closest with the song Poisonous Darts. Others may disagree. Decide for yourself after reviewing the lyrics:
"Let's see you try the water technique! Hai! Ha, ha! [sounds of fists and a whoosh of air followed by a punch] The sky is high, the cloud is low But my water technique is hard to think that the earth, can absorb water, hai! Hai!"
Yeah... word up... gotta zip my coat Yeah...
"The sky is high, the cloud is low" (f*** him) "But my water technique is hard to think" (yeah, check the live s***) "that the earth, can absorb water, hai! Hai!" (uhh)
[Verse One: Ghostface]
What the f*** I got the moonshine, word to God let's get it on Clap your heels two times, grab the magic wand Nameless, these stonewashed cats leave him brainless Showin out of this world, stranded on Uranus With coke and a dollar bill stems and crack capsules Take a blast fool but we trap up crews it's natural like soybean, burn like a laser beam My vaccine I shoot it firm and it connects like sideburns The segment, rare fragment comes together like magnets, attract heads capture like Dragnet Goin through mad phases, of all ages Killa beez locked the f*** up behind cages The Genovese swallow this line and caught a freeze Press call ID for me to quote more degrees The fortune teller Tucker sleepin gas umbrella A war where they're gunnin in the back of Armanbella Now who, don't believe that cash must rule I don't eat beef, I slap blood out of Purdue Keep a Wallace mic, mics on strike the session It's over, I file this and glow like flourescent
[Raekwon sings some s*** over Water Technique samples]
[Verse Two: Ghostface]
Yo yo, methods of blow like snow constant cashflow Rockin a Shaft afro, Tony got mad glow with hoes, mega powder drippin from they nose F***in Jet magazine b****es with, wild p****pose Send em for the whole night, daily venom horror snake bites Only Built 4 Cuban Link kings who shoot dice Holdin money that's convertable, beds with feathered bags With the mongoose your man's got two seeds down in Bagdad You onionhead n****z spread out and parlay Yo Rae these itch days get crashed with ash trays I pull stings like, guitar strings down in Spain I'm so hyped Jakes label God "crack cocaine" Why Equality Self God, yeah yeah you know it kid Ricki f***ed up, and G-Pac, blow his wig he's rockin Wu Wear, the latest in fleece uniform He's a newborn, look at money swearin like he's on But anyway back to furry kangols Jamaican wallabees My back is on the wall, bombin devils with trick-knowledgy My heart is cold like Russia, got jerked at The Source awards Next year two hundred n****z comin with swords!
11232238.1Complete out-of-it-ness. You know you've arrived departed when you only recognize a couple of the performers in the I'm F—-ing Ben Affleck video.
But this was pretty funny,
.. brother and I were doing projects, and rather than clean up the room we put all the mess on the sofa and threw a blanket over it. Later, when sister-in-law just had to come over, she asked about it. I couldn't help but notice that the right side of the pile looked a lot like two feet heh-heh. Yeah, the whole story - about the burglar and how we kitchen-utensiled and bar-b-que skewered him to death in the fight and were waiting for dark to cut him up and get rid of the body - was a good piece of emotional storytelling if I do say so myself and she bought it all. Long enough for a good guffaw anyway. Bless her heart, she does make life worthwhile sometimes.Rick Macherat
11232237.1My annual ordeal. The doctor loves to do physicals, why I cannot imagine. Would you put your hands all over a really, really old person and up their butt even if you didn't have to? We've gone round and round about this, but I finally gave in because I figure his kids need new shoes or something. Besides, it has been about twelve years.
The only problem, as I discovered tonight as I took the first bath (of three,) my underwear is older than he is. I have to ask, how old is he anyway? He's 39. Oh my good lord. You don't have to tell everything in the blog, you know. Rick Macherat
