Good stuff there. Thanks for working in a Lily von Shtupp reference!
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.

Check the record!  There's a Headley Lamarr reference in almost all my previews.

Aneury gets underlined in red whenever you type his name.  That’s ok.

Great job, Limey.
Don't think twice, it's alright.

I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

Why does Netflix annoy you?  I'm a Redbox guy, myself.

If the Astros played at the level of the previews, they'd be in the World Series by now - and it's only the end of May!

I suspect they are cutting back on the number of copies they order of new releases, and/or aren't increasing the number in line with increased subscriptions.  But they will continue to charge you for 3 movies at a time, while not sending you any of the dozen or so movies in your list.  There should be a credit when you have movies in your list but they don't have a copy.

So...I cut my subscription down to 1 movie at a time - fuck 'em!

Good stuff Limey!
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

Ok, so what have cats done to you?
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

They have laid claim to my whole bbackyard.  They lounge around the pool and on the patio furniture.  They come up to the house with impunity and stare through the windows with a "fuck you" look.  Little fuckers.  I chase them off, and the come straight back.  

I don't want a dog, but it's becoming a necessity.

The cats shit on my rock wall.  They're supposed to bury it, but they don't.  This is how much they disrespect me.

Must've been the raccoon that drinks from my pool.

It's like the whole animal kingdom got together one day and decided to fuck with me.

Looks like I missed quite the party.

And I thought it was funny, but HH has spoken.  I will find it funny nevermore.
