Wasn';t this ELO in Billy Madison where the psycho guy with the hit list crosses Billy off after he calls to apologize and the dud then sits there applying red lipstick to himself?


I'm proud to say I've never seen Billy Madison.


Me too.  Most proud.

BOS #2 Bee Gee's Andy Gibb. (oops!)

No Happy Gilmore or Water Boy!?


he goes back to school in which film? i've seen parts of that one.


I generally only watch Adam Sandler films when they're playing on airplanes. A friend here insisted I borrow her copy of 50 First Dates a few weeks back, and I got thru maybe 45 minutes of it before I had to turn it off. I've had people tell me Billy Madison is good, but just haven't felt compelled to find out for myself.


I actually paid to see 50FD just for Sean Astin (ah loves me some Seanie!). and I thought his "serious" one, Punch Drunk Love, was overrated.  But apparently he's quite good in another serious one, Reign O'er Me, a dealing-with-the-emotional-aftermath-of-9/11 drama, coming next year.

The one with the bellicose-sounding gospel preacher? Yeah, about three days ago.
Let's get right to it.

You were on the air, Ali?

I hate not getting to listen to anything in real-time.  (BTW, kids, I'm off next week, though I might be spending at least some of it in Boston, unless a last-minute fare compels me to go apartment-hunting in SF.)

I'm on vacay the following week (10/2-10/9) in the hopes of seeing a couple of A's first-round playoff games and a couple of shows: Tom Stoppard's Travesties, which I've never seen, is at A.C.T. and Roy Zimmerman (of the late lamented Foremen) is doing his one-man show at the Marsh. And then there's Elvis C for free in GGPark on Fri the 6th.  Anyone else besides Urth and myself going to that one?

TANC. I am streaming MAX FM and they just played Smoke from a Distant Fire. That was one of the bonus track choices offered and I considered it before choosing Isn't it Time. I totally wanted the flashback and now got it.

I'll be going home now!
I wish.

I had missed most of Dave Mason because of a phone call the first time around, so I'm glad to be here right now.

I waited until the 2nd song, so: VHM Dave Mason, proxy WOS for Gaz to Andrew Gold.


Proxy JINX!


So it's 1970 and our "Lonely Boy" has shown up at a shelter for teen runaways.

LB: Why are you here?
Runaway #1: My mother was a drug abuser and my father used to beat me.
Runaway #2: I was thrown out for dating a black man.  How about you?
LB: Um ... my folks had a second kid.
R1 and R2: Whoa.  Dude.
