lions and 8-tracks and zombies oh my.

today i met the uncle of the man who directed the new Dawn of the Dead. he thought it was a comedy. we talked for a bit about the movie and such and ended with his detailing how to get around spending a fortune to tour through asia. he was a fan of indonesia. nice guy. his nephew made millions of dollars last year. which is about oh....a whole lot more than i did. he may have made more than me and all of my friends combined last year. bastard.

i also met a man who told me that the last piece of music he bought was on an 8-track tape. holy bejeezus! that's a long time to go without buying music.

also, once in a past life i used to tame lions. but i wasn't very good, which is why it was a past life.

here are some links to other tellings of the man from manville.

A guy who hasn't bought music in that long is obviously crazy. And from Manville.

You're the best. I knew you'd pull through with the lion-tamer story. There, at last, is peace.

The cheesecake and armadillo tactic is pretty creative. As we know, however, creativity is not always rewarded.

I'm telling on that Manville ass to my brother...now.

another day at the office

As I sat down and prepared to begin the long process of absorbing nutrients out of my 99 cent pot-pie, freshly bombarded with microwaves, I began to glean understanding of the inner workings of the 'office' mentality. I've long said that I feel out of place where I work, that I don't identify with the people around me. That beyond small talk, I have little or nothing to say to most everyone there. I don't possess the 'ambition'/'kiss ass ability' to excel in this environment. But I digress. As I dug my plastic utensil into the crust of my savory and delicious pot-pie one of my co-workers said to another, "What is that?" Pointing an inquistive yet mildly accusing finger at the mush lying in his tupper-ware. "Hamburger Helper," he responded. In fact, if you were to ask him that question on any given day his answer would always be "Hamburger Helper". "Beef stroganoff," he embellished a little more. "You alw
