I am really tired of the blinky eyes of Amy Sedaris and her stupid rabbits.
Really.
Really.
A few moments ago, something occurred to me. I took a brief internal inventory and discovered something had changed. For months I've been feeling various combinations of sick, achey, stressed, worried, feverish, headachey, and a bunch of other symptoms that made me think I was dying of some weird illness.
While I am still stressed out (a normal state for me), for the first time in a long, long time, I can honestly say I feel OK.

Another note to be added to the Persecution Files: http://theonebob.livejournal.com/tag/per secution

"I wear a yellow shirt anywhere I go, and several of the Rolling Stones albums are yellow. And the Rolling Stones use the color yellow to persecute me"
I am trying to recall which Stones albums had yellow covers. Anyway this note came at a much shorter interval than the others. I wonder what's up.

By reading this review, I get the feeling Lisa Schwarzbaum was embittered by a childhood where her bigger brothers wouldn't let her watch Care Bears. http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20198408,0 0.html The giveaway is when she refers to the Speed Racer cartoons as "forgettable." Obviously they aren't forgettable, sweetie, otherwise there would be no movie.
I took Josie to http://www.pamperedpets.us (Rafe has dubbed the place Dogwarts).for her boarding/daycare admission interview yesterday. It's one of those places where someone is there 24/7 as opposed to the Vet's boarding place where no one is there on Sundays or holidays. It's also "Free Range" where the dogs are able to run around and play together.
During the interview, Josie was uncomfortable with free ranging and she spent the time we were there sitting on my lap and shaking. I am going to let her try it anyway. The woman who runs the place says dogs usually act all nervous and clingy when their owner is there, but loosen up after they leave. She also said if Josie just can't handle it, they can give her her own room away from the rest of the dogs. I hope the former is the case with Josie because I will be travelling over the next few weekends.
Next weekend I am going to NJ for my godson's first communion. So this will be Josie's test because...
Memorial day weekend, I will be taking a road trip to Cleveland and she will be at Dogwarts for 6 days, so I hope she likes it there because I like the thought of her not being caged up and being supervised.
So she was accepted anyway having passed the non-aggressive test. (I think she was just being smart because the other dogs were bigger than her. Except for the dachshunds, who were longer.)

I own the song but this is the first time I've seen the video.
T-Shirt Idea: Simple Line Drawing of a Shark Fin, sticking out of the Water with C14 Ybor City tattooed on it.
The first person who comes back with a decent design will get a free pass to the wake brunch and a free t-shirt with your winning logo on it (two t-shirts if you are not attending C14.)
If this is meaningless to you, go to http://www.c14ybor.com and find out more about Convergence.
Email the design to me at theonebob@gmail.com
Pass it on....

There is somebody on AIM or Gmail Chat who has been IMing me at random times. It's always different names ending in Salmon (i.e. ExpectantSalmon, InsanitySalmon, FuriousSalmon, etc.).
This time it's: AndorianS almon: I don't like the cut of your jib!
Somehow, I have managed to upset the Salmon family.

It seems that there's a little bidding war on facebook for people to own (not pwn) me. :-)
I'm a bargain right now.
All I have to say is caveat emptor. Apparently my warranty has expired.

Freakonomics!
No, it's not a summer reading assignment, it's our humble suggestion for what you, yes you, can do with your Economic Stimulus Tax Rebate. Fiddle while Rome burns! Drink while Wall Street crashes!
Or, you know, see a whole bunch of your friends for a few days of fun. That just doesn't sound nearly as fraught with dramatic, epic consequences. Except for that one person you hooked up with, totally by accident, after the Absinthe Incident, like five years ago, who keeps emailing you every once in a while.
*awkward silence descends*
Hey, look, a flamingo!
No, seriously, you'll be able to see flamingos - Rafe's contribution to the Host Tours is "Mutual of Woe-maha's Wild Kingdom" - an excursion to Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo.
Wildlife not your thing? TheOneBob will be hosting an outing to the Salvador Dali Museum. (Yes, the museum store sells souvenir melting timepieces.)
These are in addition to AngelSil's Cigar & Pub Tour, three official nights of great music (and one unofficial one), the Wake Brunch, and the piece d' resistance, the Jumping of the Shark.
Tickets are still on sale at the C14 website (http://www.c14ybor.com
), along with plenty of great info, or check out the C14 MySpace Page (http://www.myspace.com/c14ybor
).
One final note: ticket prices will be going up to their final tier of pricing on June 1st, so the sooner you get 'em, the more you can stimulate the alcohol industry, not to mention the great bunch of vendors we've got lined up!

Up Till Now: The Autobiography (Hardcover) by William Shatner will be released on May 13, 2008
This is why William Shatner is worth the time I spend amazed by him.
This is why William Shatner is worth the time I spend amazed by him.
"William Shatner has always been willing to take risks for his art. What other actor would star in history’s first---and probably only---all-Esperanto-language film? Who else would share the screen with thousands of tarantulas, release an album called Has Been, or film a racially incendiary film in the Deep South during the height of the civil rights era? And who else would willingly paramotor into a field of waiting fans armed with paintball guns, all waiting for a chance to stun Captain…er, Shatner?"

Thanks to everyone who came to my get together this past Thursday. We had a great time and Moose was consumed. To those who couldn't make it, we should arrange a make-up date. There is no reason that you shouldn't be able to celebrate as well.
Thanks also to Kim, who helped me do some much much needed cleaning in the kitchen, especially the fridge. It was way, way overdue And now the kitchen is ready to be shown. As a reward, she and Rafe got a great amount of weird-ass (to me) liquors I would never drink.
We found some thing in the fridge that obviously needed to go bye-bye and would have on their own if only they had evolved opposable thumbs.
