I just showed a 35mm print of The Empire Strikes Back (97 SE) to a crowd of 600+ in a beer theater for charity, accompanied by the 501st Legion, Cloud City Garrison.
Anecdote: Back when the SE of The Empire Strikes Back was in cinemas, the German dub had a faulty audio track and Darth Vader had quite the lisp.
It was funny and sad at the same time.
Herro! I've been distracted. House hunting, mostly. Soon, I will be rid of the three hour work commute...
I've developed a 30 year old friend named Kat; she's all about "mother earth" and being green, but she's also really cool and a kickass dancer. And has a sister my age who is really hot.

America has too many cool presidents though. Most countries have like one badass, two if they are lucky. Finland had this guy:
and this guy
America, on the other hand, had this guy
and this guy
this crazy bastard too
and this dude freed the slaves

puttin' the "Cool" in "Coolidge"
Kicking dictator ass from wheelchair
Getting more tail then any other president evar
This fella
Can't forget the newest either:
Shit, your monopoly on badass world leaders is too much, there has to be like fifteen guys I forgot to name out there. I mean, take England, they have a thousand years on you but how many absolute badass kings and queens or whatever you could name just like that?
Not complaining, just, you know...share a bit.

One of my favorite presidential anecdotes: apparently, Coolidge was nicknamed "Silent Cal." He had a reputation for being very quiet and introspective. So one night some drunk woman comes up to him at party and says "Mister President, I have a bet going with my lady friends that I can get you to say more than two words to me." He looks at her for a second and then says "You lose."
Coolidge was both the most negative and remote of Presidents, and the most accessible. He once explained to Bernard Baruch why he often sat silently through interviews: "Well, Baruch, many times I say only 'yes' or 'no' to people. Even that is too much. It winds them up for twenty minutes more."

Seeing as how this is the first July 4th with a non-white president, could we maybe blow something up for reals?
Like, just one of the uninhabited islands in the Pacific?

Also, Declan looks rather.... feminine.
but I reserve the right to hate them on a historical basis.
awesome.
That's freedom fighter to you, jerkface.
They didn't spread terror.
They spread love.
I hail from a country founded by loverists.
Laurelhurst?
Germany watches with binoculars.
It was funny and sad at the same time.
Yamamba? Gangurou? Not really much to do with anything western - just crazy tanning and weird make-up.
And it's so very 1999.
This man knows his geopolitics.
I haven't been seeing you around.

There hasn't been much to pique my interest here lately, and some of the new regs freak me out.

Mitchell and Webb isn't available for instant viewing!
I guess I'll settle for Red Dwarf or the Office or something
That's what she said!
Yeah, but she's not as hot as me!
Did all the rain finally reach you?
It did yesterday*. Today we're 30°C and upwards. Humidity, ahoy!
*so bad, two people died.
You and me... brothers in sweat.

Just like, bomb the hell out of it?
I would like that, lots.
Thanks America,

Didn't you guys rename foodstuffs just to get at them? Freedom Fries wasn't it?
I don't remember no Freedom Breakfast Tea, Freedom Crumpets or renaming your most spoken language Freedom...
In other news, I just started reading the Palin thread and I am utterly baffled as to why KingLampshade even exists at this point.
Toby Keith's bar and grill still has the fries labeled 'freedom fries'.
Which made me giggle.
