Kenny
and I decided to go to Jack in the Box today
for some of their tasty burgers and tasty beverages,
but Kenny thought we should go to IHOP. When
we got there, we decided to go to Rafferty's
in the end. The wild thing about Rafferty's
is not the interesting crop of fine-assed (bingo
jeans, heh) women that serve your tasty beverages
and food, but the fact that we had a total of
seven waiters came to our table to serve us.
First was our hostess, then a chick gave us
our menus and asked what we wanted to drink,
then another chick gave us our drinks, then
another chick and a guy that was in training
came and took our order, then our hostess gave
us our food. After that, Kenny asked for some
honey mustard, but some girl that we had never
seen brought it to him. THEN another guy that
we had never seen tried to bring another thing
of honey mustard sauce. Impecible service obviously,
but kind of strange. While we were waiting for
our food, this weird guitar rendition of Beethoven's
fifth symphony came over the speakers in the
restaurant.
Then
we went to Target, and since everyone wants
to know what the staff of NOTD does on a daily
basis, so don't be a rectangle, listen in, have
a seat. Kenny contemplated on which DVD to get
for like 45 minutes, but finally settled on
Pulp Fiction, even though the American version
doesn't have the deleted scenes, but the Canadian
one does, well obviously!! Kenny found price
labels that had already been printed for DVDs
that hadn't been released yet, like Snatch and
the Dogma special edition. I just realized that
the waiter "Buddy" in Pulp Fiction is Steve
Buscemi. Anyway, SNOOTCHIE BOOTCHIES!
Well
after the seven most tense minutes of my entire
life, SMiLEY and I now officially have tickets
to the Radiohead concert on August 12th. The
presale began today at 10:00AM eastern and I
had tickets by about 10:07, it wasn't easy either...that
included a trip to MTV.com to get a new presale
password, as well at three phone calls from
SMiLEY at work. Yes it was truly an incredible
seven minutes. Seven minutes that I will never
get back, seven minutes...that I could have
been sleeping.
I
figure since i don't updated lots of reverb
that i would update notd. brad sent me a very
funny flash movie today, the best i'd seen since
"hatten ar din" it's called "Mario
Twins" Kenny thinks it's equally funny.
Finally got the Infinity's in my car Monday
(Perdue used Jedi Mind Tricks) and Kenny and
I broke them in Monday night, they're great
except something is in the rear deck that flies
around, probably a lost screw or something.
Tomorrow--
NEWSFLASH
Another Matt Taylor sighting today, UNCONFIRMED,
at the WKU Orientation Monday. Later this was
proven a hoax. Someone was only posing at the
other half of the Derek and Matt show to get
publicity. Another Matt Taylor sighting was
confirmed today, however, because Kenny and
I saw him with our own eyes. He was at his house,
what are the odds!?
--back
to my post, I got the Cast Away DVD yesterday.
Worth it for the most part, even though it doesn't
exactly create a "new standard in DVD" as the
commercials would suggest. There's a featurette
about the life and death of "Wilson" the volleyball
that Chuck (JACK!) Noland creates to keep from
losing his sanity.
I
borrowed Usual Suspects from Kenny, so I'm going
to watch that now. SNOOTCHIE BOOTCHIES!

was radiohead.... SMiLEY

I
decided it was about time I wrote a post, so
here it is. First off, please direct your attention
to the newly updated work journal. It contains
some fun insites on my day. After listening
to the entire Amnesiac CD I can say that it
is a very good album. Is it better than Kid
A? I don't know yet, its good, but Kid A is
hard to beat. My favorite album of theirs, The
Bends, still remains at the top. I hear their
next album is going to return to the "Guitar
& Voice" type sound, reserve your copy
now. Tickets for the show in DC go on sale June
16. There was a lottery for early tickets but
I didn't get picked, although I must collect
money from Kenny, and we now have an open slot
for someone to actually go with us to see radiohead.
The price of the ticket is $40, but sence you
would be going to the show with the entire NOTD.net
staff the bare min. cost of going with us would
be $500. NOTD.net will cover the entire road
trip and show, and maybe get a few recordings
of the consert itself (if i can sneek in a small
tape recorder). So if I do succeed at sneeking
in a recorder and getting a quality live recording,
NOTD.net might suddenly be THE source for getting
a live Radiohead show on the internet. That'll
get the traffic up, heh heh hehhhhh. Speaking
of getting traffic up the NOTD ad squad will
be hitting up Opry Mills soon. Mass production
of NOTD.NET propaganda will begin shortly.

INTERLUDE
TO A KILBORNISM If any of you take the time
and care of watching the Late Late Show with
Craig Kilborn, then you will notice that from
time to time in his news segment, he uses phrases,
or "Kilbornisms." These phrases are quite the
funny bone tickler. They are damn hilarious.
For instance, if I were referring to a very
eerie situation, I'd say, "Brendan Fraiser that
place is creepy!" Enjoy.
Willie
Nelson that thing's high!
Holy Viagra that hits hard!
Matthew Perry what a crash!
Tracy Lord that thing's got a lot of mileage!
Charlton Heston that's a great shot!
Born free that place is gorgeous!
Bill Buckner that's some bad fielding!
Barry Sanders look at that thing move!
Whitney Houston we have a problem!
Curious George that's odd!
Woody Allen she's young!
Brendan Fraiser that's creepy!
Sean Penn that's crack!
El Guapo that's a bad sign!
Derek Jeter those guys need power!
James Joyce that's a lot of Dubliners!
Holy Starbucks those things are taking over!
RuPaul that's a big change!
Tom Cruise those are small sweaters!
Mickey Rourke that thing is greasy!
Anne Heche that's some switch hitting!
Bob Vila that's a lot of hardware!
Joe Theismann that's a big break!
O'Henry that's a story with a twist!
Noah's ark it rains a lot over there doesn't
it!
Gordon Gecko that place is empty!
Another
fire. Yes, not quite as spectacular as the first
one, of course once the fire's done you have
to clean up the mess...aka shreded and torn
aluminum...aka shrapnel. I love that word, and
also debris. Good solid words. I try to use
them each at least once a day.
So
now I'm watching Craiggers, I don't know why
they put it on at midnight instead of 11:30,
it comes on right after Letterman in Louisville,
but here they stick Entertainment Tonite in
between the two..make me wait longer for craiggers,
I'll teach you.
I
saw ... on the tail end of Entertainment Tonite...
some apparently famous woman talking about being
a mother, and that she potty trained her son
by using cheerios, because little boys love
to aim, you just put some in the toilet and
let them have target practice. Hell, little
boys nothing, I'm going to get some cheerios
as soon as the store opens tomorrow, have a
shooting range rite in my bathroom. Yeah. You
know you're gonna try it too...ladies, don't
be shy...it may be a little harder, but with
practice...you never know.
Highfructose
finally decided to put up a layout...of sorts...I've
been told that there will eventually be content...Bob
Vila that a lot of hardware.
