brewerfan.com has become a fascinating search site. It is possibly the only site on the interwebs where you can one-click search for a Blower Fan.

I'm so pissed off at George Lucas for the new Indy movie, it's rediculous.

I'm so pissed off at George Lucas for the new Indy movie, it's rediculous.

i haven't seen the new movie yet, but Lucas and Spielberg have pretty much turned heel for me. they've fallen in love with themselves and what they can do and it seems to be entirely about the money now, not so much making movies for art's sake--not to mention they're the epitome of this trend of rehashing old stuff and not having original ideas.

 

especially Lucas, when he did Star Wars, sure it had great effects, but it was still about the storyline. i think their mistake now is they think we love Star Wars mostly for the effects and overall look of the movie, and so they duplicate that in the present. What they don't realize is that Star Wars and the like are lasting movies because behind it all, it's a great plot.

The Culver's on the south Beltline in Madison now features baseball decor, with signed Brewers and Braves jerseys and photos.

I ate too many brats at Bratfest today...4... I'm working the event as the event manager, so I have 3 more days of it. Also, there may have been a Hawing sighting at Bratfest, but I'm not sure.

I wish I had the willpower to stop at 4 brats.

I live in Wisconsin, hate brats, hate the Packers, and don't drink beer. But I do live on a farm so I think that saves me.

Your spelling is ridiculous. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Sorry, pet peeve, and I think this may be the only thread where I can get away with this.

I need a haircut. I don't know where I would rather be... in bad haircut land or need a haircut land. Probably bad haircut land, because at least you tried.

I liked this song better when it was both a song by Warren Zevon and Lynyrd Skynyrd, not both songs smashed into one:

I hope the original artists were compensated for that horrible sampling.

Another Pet Peeve...

 

When windows programs don't include an uninstall option in their start menu folder. Then I have to go into the control panel and click a handful more times.

 

Damn I'm lazy when it comes to computers sometimes.

Also, just wanted to brag.

 

I just won 5 black ink cartridges for my printer on Ebay for $9 shipped. Shipped. Yes.

 

I win.

I really liked the Kid Rock song, as I saw it live on Dave. Catchy. Did think it had a familiar ring to it.

a very similar thing happened to me when i helped out working at a bar for St. Patrick's Day once.

Someone needs to create an operating system where all you have to do is drag an application icon and an (possibly) an application support folder to the trash. Oh, wait... there is one.

D.L. Hughley is 45 years old. I had him pegged as at least 10 years younger.

I left home at about 5:15 to go to the post office and it was 84 degrees. I get back home at 6:00 at it is 59 degrees.

It's been humid in Platteville all day, and there was no rain in sight. Now a very very severe storm is lurking 15 miles away. Man I love summer...

[JumpinMacFlash]

Also, one of the eeriest sounds is the complete silence before a huge storm. It's insanely dark and all the birds just go silent. Creepy.

Madison hasn't been really walloped yet, but our cats have acted nervous all evening, like they're anticipating something. Also creepy.

I got a free Roland JX-1 synth/midi controller today w/ a road case. Woot.

That's why living in a state where you don't have a gigantic temperature swing like that is nice. Granted, you would have had to have put up with 90+ for almost 2 weeks straight, but it's the cross that I will bear.
