Indie
5.5.2k8

Hi pals. Some words of caution if visiting Venice, CA: Try not to crash into out-of-control skateboarders.

The hell, you may ask. It's very simple. If a skateboarder is recklessly careening down the sidewalk, having botched a simple maneuver or some such, and he's about to crash, be careful not to complicate things by being on the sidewalk too. You may make contact. You may be in the wrong place at the right time.

And it would be your fault.

Just sayin'.

Tonight - Homestead.

Honorable Mention
4.5.2k8

I'm in the wrong industry. Why I made a list of things I need to ship and the people I need to ship them to and I have a note card frikkin' FILLED. It's too much to do in one try so I'm going about it piecemeal. I got the big thing I needed to ship out of the way (a Mac to a die-hard Microsoft user -- should be a fun bunch of reports from that one), and even with all 40 pounds of it gone, I still have a lot to do. I should go into the shipping biz.

Of course, once I thought of changing gigs, I began to pay attention to those companies that are already doing it and became discouraged. FedEx, UPS and that bastard third-stringer DHL all have a ton of gear necessary to ship commercially. Trucks, vans, boxes, stickers, barcodes, planes, tracking numbers ... it's all too much to compete with.

Got to come up with another get-out scheme.

Tonight - Lucky 13.

The Black Oven
5.3.2k8

Don't take the following post the wrong way: I'm not about to turn the TNSC Venue Announcement into a food blog. That being said, I will now share with you a recipe essential to all Lovely List Members: Frito™ Pie.

Here we go.

Get you these ingredients: A sac of Fritos™ (original flavor); an onion (and chop it); two cans of chili; cheddar cheese (shred it); and some toppings for adding after cooking (pictured here: Tabasco™, sliced jalapenos and sour cream).


Grease and line a square baking dish (preferably glass). Put down a layer of Fritos™. Use 2/3 of the bag.


Layer on shredded cheddar to cover.


Gently layer on the chili so as not to disturb the Frito™ layer. Then add chopped onions.


Add the last 1/3 of the bag of Fritos™ and bake at 350ยบ F for 25 - 30 minutes or until the Fritos™ brown and the chili is bubbly.


Remove from oven and top with more shredded cheese. Bake this or broil just to melt the cheese.


Dish out, top with goodness and eat the whole goddamn thing. It reheats well if ya can't eat it all at once.



Tonight - The Orbit Room.

Enjoy the former TNSC HQ on the hottest day of the year so far, says AC. Get some pics of the cocktails and send 'em in, ok?

Great Tits
5.2.2k8

If I watch "Dancing with the Stars" and "Big Brother" and really like McCain and really love KFC and Subway and think George W. is cool and don't know what it's like to feel and act and think like a person that's not a fucking jerk, then I might drive a truck that has a giant tank on it along with a vacuum and go around clearin' sewerpipes and port-o-lets and people's clogged septic tanks.

And I might drive this truck down a residential street at top speed so I can catch up to the lone bicyclist on that street, only to apply the brakes when I'm just ahead of him or her and thoroughly but THOROUGHLY gas him or her the fuck OUT with the sewage stench from the tank and tubes and truck and parts.

If I'm not that guy, I might be the other guy. The guy on the bike.

Tonight - Club Deluxe.

Says Linkey Loo Robot:
"it's Little Minsky's 3rd Anniversary show where there will be 2x as many pasties as there are performers"
