* Egypt is not Jordan (nor is it Saudi Arabia as one map showed) - I'm pretty sure Egypt wouldn't want clearly designated Jordan warplanes flying in its airspace
* You cannot walk from Petra in Jordan to the Pyramids in Geza (well you could, but it would take a while - and you'd need food and water...and several weeks...)
* There is no border between Jordan and Egypt (hence no border crossing) - Israel is in the way
* And didn't the ruins near the pyramids look a lot like the Iraqi town in the first movie (well all arabs are the same...)
yeah, and there's no mountains in frigging Qatar either...and when the USAF flies to Diego Garcia, they fly westward across the Pacific and don't go near Egypt...
I don't know anything about Middle Eastern geography, but if this is all true, then it makes this movie that much more hilarious.

9. Drive"Give me the keys."9. Drive by GoldenSama
"... I'd prefer to drive, actually."
"We don't have time for you to drive. Now give me the keys."
Beside an old, heavily run-down farmhouse was an old dirt road that stretched on for miles. The only thing in sight, besides the disused farm, were trees and open fields for as far as one could see. Parked in front of the rusted mailbox in front of the farm was a sparkling white Lamborghini that glimmered in the sun and badly conflicted with the rustic surroundings.
Two people stood beside the car as they argued over who would take the seat behind the wheel. The first was a young man in a fancy black suit and tie, with white hair and sunglasses to block the glare coming from overhead. He held a metal briefcase in his left hand and the keys to the expensive sports car in his right.
"It's just this is a rental so-"
"So then what do you even care? It has insurance and it's not even yours. Now give me the keys bef

Dec 2nd, 2014
I sit on the floor of my new bedroom typing on my old laptop in. Thanks to the moving guys putting my bed in the middle of the U-Haul behind rows of stuff, I slept on this floor.
And yet, I cannot find it in myself to complain about anything. This new house is a magical wonderland. It is enormous, first of all. I have never lived in a house this big and have only ever even been inside one when visited my cousins who are quite literally millionaires.
The house itself is old, but the interiors are all new. Apparently the last family who lived here left the house in quite a sorry state, so the Landlady replaced everything. New carpets in the bedrooms, hardwood floors throughout the rest of the house, new oven, refrigerator, microwave, sink, and dishwasher. New doors, new lighting, new heating/cooling system – heck there's even ceiling fans in every bedroom. It is like having a brand new house, but at the price of an old house.
I love this house. I don't know how I feel about living in Mountain Home yet; but good God do I love this house.
A few hours have passed since I wrote that first part. We unloaded the U-Haul. I now have my bed in my room, and the temptation to sleep on something softer than the floor is strong. However, I must remain awake because the internet people are coming at some point.
There is much to do. I need to move some boxes from the garage to other places in the house, so that we can all get our stuff once we're settled in. Plus they're on their way with a second load of our junk from the old house. Including my TV. I want my TV. This house is far too quiet.
In the daylight I can now see the backyard. I like it. It's small, and a large portion of the yard itself is taken up by the back porch and a paved in section, and also a basketball court. Plus there's a shed. All in all in means very little actual grass for mowing. That pleases me.
A few more hours have passed and now the Suddenlink guy is hooking up the internets. We left our router in Missouri, and it is being brought on the second load (that shall also bring the rest of my stuff.)
Still, with any luck I will be online (admittedly from a wired connection in the sun room) very shortly, and all will be well in the world.
… well, except that I still have a metric fuckton of stuff to do today; BUT I'm probably going to blow it off and goof around online because I've done that so seldom lately. ;_;
Of course, if you are reading this, then that means that the internet is online! Though if the only person reading this is me, in my kitchen, freezing my feet off on this cold floor without the capacity to get online – then I shall be sad.
At least I have pizza.
There's some sort of problem with the cable hookup in my room. I may not have TV in my room. I rarely actually watch TV anyway, and I will have Netflix and DVDs; but still. I like having TV. Hopefully this shall eventually be solved.
Oh well. I still have pizza, and I still really love this new house.
Since I first began to write this latest update, I have received unfortunate news. The cables that are in the walls right now are no good. We'll need to get new cables installed. It may be a few days before everything is up 100%, but he is trying to at least get one spot where the internet will be available.
If you're reading this, then he succeeded.
With each passing minute I grow ever more concerned. I don't even know what this guy is doing now. I'm beginning to fear the internet may not be connected tonight at all. I can't blame this on SuddenLink, but how they respond to a problem will go a big way in my first impression with them.
I pray SuddenLink will be the awesome internet I've always craved; and not a cold carbon copy of Mediacom. (Actually they're supposed to be giving us 75mb per second speed, so they'd actually be amazingly better than Mediacom even if things are a bumpy installation.)
I can hear him speaking on the phone outside, but can't make out what he's saying. I hope it's not "I can read minds and I shall kill this man who doubts us". That would be weird. SAVE ME COULSON!
… I don't have TV or internet and I'm stuck on my old laptop that has none of my unfinished stories or Steam. And all my books are packed away. I AM BORED.
Daring duck of mystery, champion of right,
Swings out of the shadows, a dark wing of the night,
Somewhere some villain plots, but he's out of luck
Here comes – Darkwing Duck!
(when there's trouble you call DW)
Darkwing Duck!
Let's Get Dangerous.
Darkwing Duck!
… I'm bored and I'm not going to sing 90's cartoon theme songs with a stranger in the house. So I'm typing them.
Sometimes, Some crimes, go slipping through the cracks,
But these two, Gumshoes, are picking up the slack
There's no case too big, no case too small,
Okay so he left. The situation is not good. Going to have to replace most of the cables. I have a modem I can connect to in a few minutes so hopefully I'll be online tonight.
online but I have to sit on the living room floor to use the computer so I may not be on much until this whole thing is resolved.

Axe: Anarchy Calculator
Axe helps you find the hottest clubs. In order to promote the new AXE ANARCHY line, we imagined an app called Anarchy Calculator. The app works as a tool that counts the number of Foursquare check-ins made into a nightclub and provides the "Anarchy Level", a number based on the proportion of the men and women partying there. In a quick search, the user discovers places with high levels of attraction and ensures that his night will be awesome.

I just can't like all the AXE campaigns. The reason is above!

"Mevagissey" Top 5 Page for this destination Mevagissey by kevin36
Mevagissey Travel Guide: 58 reviews and 113 photos
The Harbour,
I think it speaks for itself there is an inner Harbour and an outer Harbour
and is still a working fishing village,
I must admit it is a bit on the commercial side,but then where isn't these days in Cornwall, because it is popular its something you have to accept.
Prior to the original Mevagissey Harbour Act of 1774, a thriving fishing industry had been built up around the village of Mevagissey. At this time a medieval quay existed in the region of the present East Quay. However this did not offer much protection against the onslaught of easterly gales. With this in mind a group of businessmen, land owners and local clergy brought together the necessary requirements to set in motion the Act of Parliament to enable the construction of East and West Quays.
Thus, Mevagissey Harbour was set up as a Trust Harbour. Over the years subsequent Harbour Acts were passed in 1865,1888, and 1892. The construction of the harbour to its present state was taken in various stages, which culminated in the construction of the outer harbour walls in 1888. These were virtually destroyed in the great blizzard of 1891, and were rebuilt and completed by 1897.
The outer harbour ,we spent many an evening walking along the outer harbour enjoying the sights,and if its rough it can be fun dodging the waves at high tide,but be careful it can get slippery.
There are benches along the south side of the harbour to just sit and watch the world go by,but don't be tempted to feed the Seagulls or you might end up with an unpleasant mess on your head,if don't believe me take a look at the cars parked near by.
This is only a small part of Cornwall,and I could go for hours telling you the different places we have visited,so my advice is Hire a Camper Van and Explore the different places.
We hired a Camper on a couple of occasions and just toured around the area, there are some great campsites to be found, See the Wookeyhole Caves,Cheddar Gorge,
Goonhilly,Tintagel the home of King Arthur, The Tin Mines etc Just a few to wet your appetite.
Just remember my views are based on where we stayed (Treloen Apartments)which makes all the difference.
- Pros:"A nice little Fishing Village with a rugged coastline."
- Cons:"Can get busy with tourists/but thats what we are."
- In a nutshell:"Everytime I hear a seagull sing I think of here."

Finally someone who LIKES the Cornish seagulls too :)
Nice tips. We spent a few days in this special spot in the summer. A place to relax, with freindly people.
Great page, somewhere I haven't visited since childhood. Sure it will have many more tourists now. Not sure how accessible many of the villages would be in a 24 feet motorhome (ours), careful planning, I think!!

Luke Gillingham Named Louisville Slugger Second-Team All-American
Left-handed pitcher is one of three Mids in program history to earn second-team nod
Bobby Applegate joined the Navy baseball staff as the team's pitching coach in August of 2014. A veteran of the collegiate baseball ranks, Applegate comes to Annapolis after three seasons at UC Riverside.
Prior to joining Navy, Applegate served as an assistant coach, recruiting coordinator and, for a time following the retirement of Doug Smith, the interim head coach of the UC Riverside Highlander baseball program. A three-year member of the Highlanders, Applegate led a pitching staff that saw five hurlers join the professional ranks. In this past June, Jacob Smigelski (Miami Marlins, 13th) and Zach Varela (Los Angeles Angels, 23rd) and Dylan Stuart (Atlanta Braves, FA) all were drafted or signed as a free agent after three years of tutelage under Applegate. With the addition of Trevor Frank, a 2013 eighth round draftee of the Cleveland Indians, and Eddie Orozco, a 2012 22nd round pick of the Chicago Cubs, all five hurlers also were recognized on All-Big West teams during their careers at Riverside.
Besides his mentoring of the pitching staff, Applegate was also in charge of coordinating the recruiting, scheduling and alumni relation efforts of the Highlanders' program.
Before heading west to UC Riverside in 2011, Applegate was an assistant coach at Brigham Young University for eight years. During his time with the Cougars his pitchers found both individual and group success as 16 different pitchers signed professional contracts and his staffs posted the two lowest team earned run averages in BYU's history. In a conference known for explosive offensive numbers, the Cougars' 2007 earned run average mark of 3.93 stands fifth all-time in the Mountain West Conference's record book.
In addition to his work with pitchers, Applegate was responsible for the scheduling of all games, managing the travel budget, directing the program's alumni relations and assisting with all facets of recruiting. For his work with the team, he was honored as the Assistant Coach of the Year by BYU Athletic Department in 2010.
A two-year stint as an associate scout for the Kansas City Royals from 2002 through 2003 served as a buffer for Applegate between BYU and his previous stop at the United States Air Force Academy. From 1998 until 2002, he was the pitching coach for the Falcons and guided Matt Kaercher, who became the first pitcher from the academy to sign a professional baseball contract. Applegate and his Air Force squad left its mark on the school's record book with the most wins versus D1 opposition in 2002 and the second-lowest ERA since 1983 during the 2000 season. Six Falcons earned All-Conference accolades under his tutelage.
Applegate's first collegiate coaching opportunity came in 1995 at his alma mater, the University of Southern Colorado (now known as Colorado State University-Pueblo). Between 1995 and 1997, he served as the school's pitching coach and aided the 1996 team to a fourth place finish in the NCAA Division II College World Series.
Applegate began playing collegiately at Southwestern Community College in San Diego (1991-93) before transferring to the University of Southern Colorado. He completed a distinguished career in 1995 after earning accolades as the Colorado Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Year ('95) and on the All-Mile High Intercollegiate team ('95). In recognition of his success as a player and a coach, Applegate was inducted into the USC Diamond of Fame in 1999.
After playing professionally for the Pueblo Bighorns of the Texas-Louisiana League during the summer of 1995, he returned to CSU and finished his kinesiology degree in 1996.

She's hot. Right?
Thanks for helping us associate the correct Pornstars to this video!
Help Us: Do these Pornstars appear in this video?
Pornstar Name:
Lucky is that guy who has this great opportunity to shove his huge dick into her tight holes... Anjelica is dumb in her English studies, but I swear she is goddess in fucking! Look at this stunning teenage cutie giving her three holes for a deep penetration.

She's hot. Right?
i love this young stud! your cock is perfect!
who is the girl?
A russian chick getting way more cock than she is accustomed to.
I always knew taylor swiftt loved it in the butt
oh my.... I looooove that huge cock
You do realize he is gay and acting out his part? Not that I am complaining, I envy him in this role. But just watch his moves/ actions...Homosexual! Doesn't know how to make love to a woman. Nice try man...nice try.
damn! she is a cutie !!
Great vid! Reminds me of the first time I had anal w/ my ex-GF. she had same type of body but was petite height and she too was shy but really got into anal . This guy did a very nice job prepping her for his cock, gently stretching the asshole with your lubricated finger will help your partner get used to the sensation of having something in there before your cock goes in. Remember this people!
lovely girl
he's hot! what's is his name... i love watching him fuck someone...
She is Irina Snejana.
2:15 he noticed her pussy stank LoL
Oh yeah, I went through something very similar to this. I was tutoring the girl across the street from me. Her mom had to work that evening and I was helping her daughter get ready for some finals in a couple of courses. The only difference was she kept rubbing my leg while I was trying to explain some of the subject matter. She told me that she could probably concentrate better if we made out first because that was all she could think about. She was shy about a finger in her ass at first, like this one, but soon really liked it and was pushing her ass hard back on my finger. We fucked and then we went doggy and I put my finger in her ass and she cummed right them. She said she had no idea her ass was that sensitive. We fucked more and then she wanted me to ass fuck her, so again, very carefully getting her ass ready and she used her hand to control my dick. It wasn't long before she shoved hard back on my dick and she really worked her ass, wanting more. I spent that weekend working with her, and when her mom wasn't around, we fucked. She passed her classes with good enough grades to get into college, but she continued to want more tutoring sessions and of course I couldn't deny her.
Such a sweet looking girl for sucking cock
She is hot. And shy. And gets fucked up the ass. Good combo.

Auburn's fiscal surplus to more than double initial forecast
The City of Auburn's surplus for the current fiscal year is expected to be more than double what was originally forecasted.
With a surplus of $315,650 for 2012-13, the city's general fund balance is on its way to breaking the $3 million mark for the first time since 2008-09. That's nearly 5 1/2 times the surplus experienced the past fiscal year, which was the city's first since before the recession.
This year's surplus had originally been forecast to be $123,000.
The financial status report given by Auburn Administrative Services Director Andy Heath showed the year's revenues to be $963,629 more than originally forecasted along with $771,534 more in expenditures.
Some of the surplus can be attributed to property tax and sales tax revenues coming in higher than expected with respective increases of $182,324 and $175,000.
A majority of the added costs are one-time expenses, Heath said, and some are funded by grants such as the five new firefighters added in October 2012 through the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grant.
The total general fund reserves are expected to be $3,042,156 – or 33 percent of the following year's expenses – on June 30, the end of the fiscal year. In 2005-06, the last year the city experienced a surplus before the recession, Auburn had just more than $5 million in reserves, or 51 percent of the next year's expenses.
Heath said keeping reserves above 30 percent of the next year's expenses is a comfortable level, given that the fund balance is not currently declining.
The report was met with guarded optimism by the City Council at its most recent meeting.
"It doesn't seem like we're paying enough attention to expanding our reserves in a still very uncertain climate both federally and state, so while it's nice to say we're preserving our 33 percent, to me it's inadequate," Councilman Dr. Bill Kirby said.
Mayor Kevin Hanley said the city's prudence is starting to pay off. Councilman Mike Holmes said he's pleased with the direction Auburn's fiscal status is headed.

Important Tip for Young Comrade Lovers
When your girlfriend sends you a bosom shot in her new steampunk dress she bought at ComiCon twenty minutes before a meeting, do NOT, repeat, do NOT wait until after the meeting to respond.
She'd probably still be ripshiznit, but, fortunately for me, another crisis has presented itself and my "inconsiderate smug asshol"ishness is no longer the topic of contention.
Off to Brooklyn, huzzah!, with copies of Jane Gaskell's The Dragon and Irish Fairy and Folk Tales by Yeats, which I scored off Comrade Curtin, for the bus ride. Huzzah, huzzah!
(Even more huzzah-worthy, La Principessa shyly informed me that, at thirty-eight years old, she has now purchased her SECOND outfit of skimpy, see-through, bedtime wear. Will we be watching the second season of Game of Thrones this weekend? I know not, but, HUZZAH!!!!)

It was the demise of Khal Drogo, that did it, actually. La Principessa really, um, gets into it when we do the KD/Dany scenes, so, you know, I started to identify with the barbaric, rapacious, horselord. I think I'm going to start putting bells in my hair.
"Indeed the same dark question often rose into her mind, with reference to the whole race of womanhood. Was existence worth accepting, even to the happiest among them? As concerned her own individual existence, she had long ago decided in the negative, and dismissed the point as settled. A tendency to speculation, though it may keep woman quiet, as it does man, yet makes her sad. She discerns, it may be, such a hopeless task before her. As a first step, the whole system of society is to be torn down, and built up anew. Then, the very nature of the opposite sex, or its long hereditary habit, which has become like nature, is to be essentially modified, before woman can be allowed to assume what seems a fair and suitable position. Finally, all other difficulties being obviated, woman cannot take advantage of these preliminary reforms, until she herself shall have undergone a still mightier change;..."

"...in which, perhaps, the ethereal essence, wherein she has her truest life, will be found to have evaporated. A woman never overcomes these problems by any exercise of thought. They are not to be solved, or only in one way. If her heart chance to come uppermost, they vanish. Thus, Hester Prynne, whose heart had lost its regular and healthy throb, wandered without a clew in the dark labyrinth of mind; now turned aside by an insurmountable precipice; now starting back from a deep chasm. There was wild and ghastly scenery all around her, and a home and comfort nowhere. At times, a fearful doubt strove to possess her soul, whether it were not better to send Pearl at once to heaven, and go herself to such futurity as Eternal Justice should provide."
Had an interesting conversation with the Nigerian Princess awhile ago that I have forgotten to write up until now:
I have no idea how it came up, but we were talking about catcalling, or street harassment if you prefer, and she said she was quite ambivalent about it. On the one hand, she said, when guys whistle at her or whatever, she gives them her "biznitchface." But, she added, as soon as they were gone she would smile because "You know, I must be looking good."
I told her that she had to stop sending mixed signals like that. "What do you mean?" she protested, "I don't send mixed signals, I glare at them."
"Yeah," I said, "but then you come back here and tell me and [Mr. Comrade] about it and then we go on the internet and tell everybody what you said. Stop perpetuating your own oppression, [Nigerian Princess]!"
Meanwhile, apparently, Mr. Comrade has been catcalled three times by black and/or brown girls since he has moved to Lowell.

Well, it's a little early to categorize La Principessa as a "mate," but:
At a comrade's house the night before Thanksgiving. Heavy flirtation occurred over a weekend full of Black Friday protests in front of the Wal-Mart and Ferguson solidarity rallies. Two weeks later, me and Mr. Comrade made a video at a victory rally for striking UE machinists, I catcalled La Principessa and put it on her Facebook page.
She's been mine ever since.
Went out to lunch with La Principessa, La Principessa's Single Mother Comrade and La Principessa's Single Mother Comrade's 7-Year-Old ADHD-Diagnosed Son and the latter, for no apparent reason whatsoever, called La Principessa "Big Bra."
Out of the mouths of babes, etc.
He also referred to me as "Big Belly" (shut up, brat!) and, much more worrisome, "Daddy."
Objectification of women is a terrible, terrible thing, as is societal pressure put upon them to make them conform to some Cosmo-approved standard of beauty.
La Principessa was telling me that she's been putting on weight and that it's all been going to her breasts and buttocks. In fact, she had to stop wearing her 32 DD brassieres and buy 32 DDD brassieres.
I told her it was okay.
Also, I've noticed that more women have been flirting with me ever since I met La Principessa. I'm sure there's a scientific explanation.
For example, beautiful mixed-race South African fashion designer who came to the Let the Fire Burn screening and with whom the Nigerian Princess instantly bonded over being hawt African chicks and having sexy accents.
Turns out her name is Antoinette. Dare I call her the Coloured Princess?
More Fun with Love and Stuff
So, essentially, La Principessa has been depressed since she lost her election. She was okay for the five days I was down there, but as soon as I left, she just kept running into crisis after crisis, and fell apart at each of them. But I thought she was making progress, because, you know, at least she wasn't being mean to me. Woo hoo!
That changed last night, though.
She was going on about every detail of her problems at work (she filed a grievance when her principal told her she had to teach a different grade next year even though she's the most senior eighth grade teacher in the department; he responded by writing her up on three different discipline charges, one which included eating a yogurt during the graduation practice ["professional misconduct"] and another was telling one of the other administrators that her principal was a sadist in the teacher's lounge ["insubordination"]). She kept jumping around, stream-of-consciousness-wise, and it was confusing to follow, so I asked a few questions and she got exasperated. So I stopped asking questions and just listened. She went on for another couple of minutes, then started talking to her dog, then trailed off. "Are you still there?" she asked and, apparently, didn't hear me when I said "Yes." She then got mad and started accusing me of not listening to her.
Well, there's only so much of this a goblin--even one in love--can take, you know? I've come to terms with the fact that depressives are, by nature, self-absorbed narcissists, and she only remembers to ask about how my life is going once or twice a week, while I have to listen to the minutiae of every step in the United Federation of Teachers grievance procedures, and then she accuses me of not listening?
So, I flared up a bit. She flared up even more. "Oh, well, maybe I'll talk to you when you're less pissy." "Oh, I'm the one who's pissy?" Etc., etc., etc. until I hung up on her.
Which started the dreaded barrage of La Principessa texts.
Now, I know I'm supposed to not engage and reassure and not return tit for tat, but, you know me, and the urge to bait is strong and sometimes I have to give in or else I'll go crazy. For your delectation, the texts:
LP: Just so you know, if i wanted to talk to myself, I could do it without calling you.
DJdD: What, you want to fight?
LP: No, but could you maybe make the tiniest effort to interact with me? Maybe signal me you're listening at all?
DJdD: Like when I asked what 310 was? Or who Laurie was? Or after you jumped from this morning to laurie as a witness to angela's letter and i asked a question and you got exasperated?
LP: More like when you forgot I'm spending my days around people who all think I'm a horrible psycho.
DJdD: I don't know what that means
LP: Whatever, I got to group [therapy] and was locked out and no one would come to the door so I left. Just leave me alone.
DJdD: You started this. You leave me alone.
[I think she composed the next one underground before she saw my response]
LP: Hope is completely pointless, as is trust. The world is ugly and I really don't see the point anymore. Just let me have some peace. I'm never going to get better and it will eventually just drive you insane. And make you cold. That's what I do.
LP: Fine. No problem at all.
DJdD: What are you talking about? Oh, that's right you want me to leave you alone, that's why you keep texting me.
LP: Wow. See, you're already a heartless bastard. That didn't take long.
DJdD: Yup, you really want to be left alone.
LP: Yeah, I f$~&ing do. But I'm glad you're enjoying ridiculing me.
DJdD: I'm a heartless bastard, remember?
DJdD: You did this.
LP: Blocking you on my phone. F%*# you. I hope everyone I know does [sic] in a massive fire, including you.
DJdD: Well, i know how important getting the last word is to you. Block away.
I conferred a bit with Mr. Comrade and the Nigerian Princess, who were over for the second half of it, trying to get me to come out and do fun stuff with them. I told them I wouldn't be good company and was just going to sit in the dark and seethe until she came around. Mr. Comrade smoked me up and then I felt better and then they left and then I watched American Hustle, which wasn't very good, I thought, but some aspects of Jennifer Lawrence's character kept reminding me of La Principessa, and then I went to bed.
Woke up this morning to find that she had sent me an e-mail at midnight saying she was sorry and that blocking me was her sick way of protecting me from her and that she was never going to get better and I deserved someone better than her. So I wrote back asking if that meant she didn't want me to die in a massive fire after all and then she called me and then I made her laugh by telling her that the reason there was an ASPCA vehicle in her usual parking spot was that her Lab had ratted her out because she wasn't getting taken to the park often enough, further extrapolated a tale about an Underground Railroad of neglected dogs throughout Brooklyn and, run, baby, run, they're coming for you!
"Ha ha ha! Oh, baby, I love you...."
I know it's probably stereotypically narcissistically male, but I think she needs to have sex with me more often. Thankfully, today's the last day of school and she's got two months off.
Got another vacation coming up which will consist of a trip to Brooklyn, so I better finish A Game of Thrones before I get down there. Hence, I'm putting aside Brackett for a while and focusing exclusively on Hardy.
There's a really nice grassy hill outside of work that I've started frequenting. Get to work an hour or two early, smoke a bowl, sit on the hill, wait for La Principessa to call and then read a book. Yesterday, since La Principessa never called, I read chapters XXVIII-XXX and they made me cry over and over. My love and Tess are very different people and have very different problems, but it was kinda like Hardy had peered through a telescope into the future and was writing a description of La Principessa. I bet she would've made a great milkmaid.
Anyway, I was totally rooting for Angel Claire, then I finished "Part the Fourth" and peeked a couple of pages ahead and I am no longer and now I say f%** that douchebag! but my opinion might change as I keep reading.
Nigerian Princess as she and Mr. Comrade get ready to go see the Anglo-Ibo singer Nneka:
"I haven't met a white American male who dresses well yet."
Mr. Comrade as he puts on a dress shirt and a pair of shoes that don't have holes:
"What about me?"
Nigerian Princess:
"Oh, it doesn't matter, I love you, baby."
How could I possibly resist an article entitled
The details escape me at the moment, but, recently, a female acquaintance complained that she thought her partner was going to be a better lover because he had read Castaneda. Yeah, I told her, I don't think that's what Don Juan is about. Haven't read the Acid Test since high school. Should probably re-read it.
Anyway, I'm a little terrified of the red inscription across the messageboards home page and worried that, come next Tuesday, I will no longer be able to post on these boards due to computer illiteracy. In case that is true, I love all of you and will miss you dearly and I have started reading Tess.
Love Among the Commie Nerds
I could give a detailed account of my adventures with Game of Thrones but I'll just leave it at she has started calling me "My sun and stars" and I have taken to calling her "Moon of my life" even though I haven't seen/heard either of those epithets yet.
When I (thought I) was too exhausted to keep doing it, I would insist that we stop watching Game of Thrones. She would then put on Buffy the Vampire Slayer which didn't help at all, just led to me calling her "My wicked black plum" and her demanding that I bite her harder.
Anyway, across town, (well, three states away) Mr. Comrade and the Nigerian Princess were fooling around in his mother's trailer, watching Panther. She was fiddling about with his genitalia, when Huey P. Newton started giving a speech. Mr. Comrade was thrilled to watch as she got less and less interested in sex and more and more interested in Huey's rhetoric, and stopped touching him until the scene was over.
"It was pretty exciting," he commented later, "Almost as exiciting as sex."

Lengthy Backstory That's Just a (Possibly Boring) Summation of Stuff I've Already Posted Before
About 2002, 2003, somewhere around then, in Boston, The Black Goblin's Wicked Hawt Parsi girlfriend was going on and on about these great books she was reading, A Song of Ice and Fire, but how the author was taking way too much time in between each book. She was quite frustrated and the subject came up, time and time again, about this writer, George R.R. Martin, and how he was "being a wicked dick" to his readers. I was intrigued, because she was so emotionally attached, but wary, because, you know, I don't need that kind of hassle in my life. I decided that I wouldn't read them until the series was done or Mr. Martin shuffled off this mortal coil, which, of course, I hope never happens.
Fast forward a bunch of years and me and The Black Goblin find our way back from Boston to New Hampshire. The HBO show comes out and I maintain my vow. The Black Goblin buys the first season on DVD. He watches the whole thing; I refuse to watch even a minute. He finishes and promptly starts watching it again with a roommate (my Tattoo Artist Former Player-Turned-Dungeon Master). I refuse to watch even one minute. He finishes and promptly starts watching it again with a different roommate (Buddhist Monk Former Player Whom I Haven't Seen in a While). I break down and watch the first episode. Am blown away.
(Parenthetically, watching the first season of Game of Thrones three times in a row had a deleterious effect on The Black Goblin. He bought a Westeros cookbook and started drinking a lot of mulled wine. Speaking of winters, that one around the D&D table was terrible.)
Anyway, I run home, dig my copy of A Game of Thrones that I had bought for a quarter at the East Boston Public Library donations bin out of a box and read the first half in 24 or so hours before I finally get a hold of myself, throw the book across the room, and maintained my vow. I did, however, watch the first half of the season up to where I stopped reading.
Fast forward a bit more and I start going out with La Principessa. She keeps going on and on about how I have to read A Song of Ice and Fire. I tell her about my vow. She doesn't care. She keeps telling me about this article* my Independent Maoist-Inclined Red Historian Rival for Her Affections (Since Vanquished) has written, and if I won't read them and talk to her about them, I guess she'll have to talk to somebody about them... (She really, really relishes this game of trying to drive me insane with jealousy, but doesn't respond at all well when I tell her about how I bought a copy of The Land of Oz for a female comrade in Boston a couple of months before I met her, and how happy that female comrade was, how she brightened up when I handed it to her and...Baby, put that down! Why are you so angry? She doesn't mean anything to me, I love you, baby!)
Spoilered for Disgusting Goblin Sexiness
Anyway, I was trying to figure out what to read after The Whispering Swarm and realized that I was going down to Brooklyn this coming weekend, so I call up La Principessa:
"Hey, baby, I was thinking, you want me to read A Song of Ice and Fire so we can watch the tv show together, right?"
"Okay, well, I'm thinking that I'll start reading them now and we can start watching the first season this weekend."
"You will? Yay!!!!"
"Yeah, and I was thinking...you know, I was thinking we could play a, kind of like, a drinking game while we watched the show..."
"A drinking game? Hmm, well, I'm sure there must be all kinds of Game of Thrones drinking games on the internet..."
"Well, not really a drinking game, just kind of like a drinking game..."
"What do you mean?"
"I was thinking that we could watch the show and, you know, stop everytime they have sex and, uh, have sex."
After a 20-second pause, "I like this idea."
"Yeah? I was thinking that, you know, we could stop when they were having sex and do whatever they're doing on the screen."
She involuntarily makes a sound that is half-moan/half-gasp and says "Baby, I really like this idea."
"Yeah?" "Yeah." "Where are we going to get a little person?"
She laughs. "Well, his sex scenes are mostly just him in bed with giggling prostitutes..."
"Baby, I can't wait!"
Worth breaking my vow for, I think.
Anyway, I made a joke about posting about it on the FB page of My Independent Maoist-Inclined Red Historian Rival for La Principessa's Affections (Since Vanquished) and she said "What have I told you? Facebook is public. You can't talk about our private lives in public." She must have heard my frown through the phone because she then added, "But I don't care if you want to tell all your little friends on Paizo."
Have been watching all of 30 Rock on and off with La Principessa over the past few months. Came to the realization that Liz Lemon is a scrubbed-up, made-for-TV version of La Principessa with all of her problems made cuter.
In fact, had a dream the other night that I was in the middle of a messy break-up with Liz Lemon. Told La Principessa about it and she was delighted. "I like Liz Lemon!" Hope that doesn't make me Dennis Duffy...
We're working on it.
After I took back being adamant about not moving to New York, she agreed to consider thinking about not being adamant above not leaving New York.
Anyway, she went back to her expensive, non-insurance covered behavioral therapy to learn how to deal with her anger management and other emotional outbursts, so, you know, she's trying.
Love Among the Commie Nerds
Had a pretty bad fight with La Principessa. She got some text messages from the increasingly spiraling out-of-control, manipulative, conniving and desperate Mrs. Comrade ("I know we haven't been close lately" yeah, after you drove her away back in January, you crazy psychopath! "but I thought I should tell you I don't like the way [Doodlebug] and [Mr. Comrade] talk about you, etc.") which led to her writing an e-mail letter which wasn't very nice to which I responded with an e-mail letter that wasn't very nice and in which I told her I didn't want to move to New York. We break up.
Full fury of La Principessa is unleashed, on-and-off, for the next 48 hours. Anyway, at one point she starts going on about "You shouldn't tell people you'll always be there, you shouldn't tell them you'll love them forever, you shouldn't lie to people like that!!!! [Cries]"
It was pretty terrible, lemme tell you. Anyway, I go to go play D&D to get my mind off of shiznit and the Druids Council tells me that there is a bear cub at the local zoo who sounds like a good candidate for animal companionship.
So, The Mad Hermit goes down to the zoo, scopes it out and concocts a plan. It was a great plan. I cast charm animal, got into the bear cage, made friends with the cub, we dug a hole and I hid in the bear cage all night nuzzling with the cub. Next morning, the zookeeper comes into the monkey cage next door. The Mad Hermit from his hidden vantage point, casts entangle on the zookeeper. He makes his saving throw. "Wtf?!?" I cast charm animal on one of the monkeys to get him to steal the zookeeper's keys. The monkey makes his saving throw and flings poo at me.
My beautiful plan foiled, I decide to give up on the bear cub and release her from animal companionship. The DM, not having any idea what's going on in my personal life, says "Really, you spent all that time bonding with the cub, becoming companions for life, and now you're just going to walk away?" I start sobbing. The Black Goblin, who does know what's going on, puts his hand on my shoulder. The Mad Hermit keeps walking and the DM decides to twist the knife. "As you pass a couple of zookeepers, you can see on their clipboards that the bear cub is scheduled to be put down later in the day." I flip out, attack the zookeepers, the zookeepers tase me and throw me in an offal ditch.
I come to hours later, make my way to the meeting place where I am supposed to meet the rest of the party, covered in poo, and make a grand entrance, flinging feces all over the place as I gesticulate wildly and tell the party members that they have to follow me to the zoo. They demur. I seethe. The DM lays out the whole exposition and backstory for the adventure, but I can't listen, I am obsessed with this bear cub who, my THC-addled mind is now convinced, is a metaphor for my relationship with La Principessa.
I bide my time impatiently, until the DM starts talking about some symbols that might provide a clue to the plot. The Mad Hermit pipes up, "I've seen that symbol!" "Where?" ask the PCs and the exposition-giving NPCs. "At the zoo in the bear cage! Let's go!"
Eventually, we get down there and the Mad Hermit surprises the rest of the party by suckerpunching the first zookeeper we run into and stealing his keys. More zookeepers assemble and I push the dwarven fighter at them and yell "Look out, he's got a knife!" The zookeepers pull out their tasers.
A ridiculous combat breaks out where the party, all good, agents of the church, whatever, are trying to prevent the zookeepers from tasing them, but refuse to strike back. Meanwhile, The Mad Hermit is ignoring the melee and trying to break into the bear cage. I get in. The older bears don't like what's going on, so the dwarven cleric of nature has to intervene to prevent me from getting mauled. I free the bear. I try getting it to flee the zoo with me, but the DM points out that I had already released it from animal companionship and it no longer wants to be my friend!
The Mad Hermit starts sobbing, falls on his knees before the bear cub and cries out "Francesca!" The Black Goblin says, "Ohmygod, do you want me to punch you in the face?" which I guess is New England Teamsterspeak for "I am sorry you are in pain and will do my best to support you." The Mad Hermit is pleading with the bear cub, crying, "Please come with me Francesca, please come with me." The bear cub bites the Mad Hermit and drops him to -3 hp. I start crying. "Let the Mad Hermit die! He doesn't deserve Francesca's love!" The dwarven cleric heals him anyway.
Later, I have to explain my behavior to the DM and apologize for ruining the session, tell him what's going on with La Principessa; the DM is aghast.
Next day, more terrible back-and-forth on the phone with La Principessa which leaves me wailing on the kitchen floor like a wounded animal before she repents and starts sending apologetic text messages which leads to reconciliation. She calls after I get out of work, I'm feeling better, tell her the story about The Mad Hermit and the bear cub. I'm laughing a little as I tell the story, but she starts crying and says "I'm so sorry, baby, I don't want to hurt you anymore! [Sobs] I love you! [Sobs]"
I think we're back together.
F&*$in' D&D.

Been a while since I listened to This Year's Model. Damn, that's a fine album.
Have spoken with her all of twenty minutes since Wednesday night. It's weird. Usually I have to recharge my phone every day, but not since Wednesday. Hmmm.
A couple of Facebook messages, including one of her saying "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" is the co-dependent's anthem.
I don't know what she's talking about. "To die by your side, well the pleasure, the privilege is mine."
Maintained radio silence for 35 hours before breaking down and sending her a quick message about how sad I was and how I hoped she was doing well.
Got this back in return:
I'm okay, but it changes nearly hourly. The only thing that makes me feel slightly better is not dragging you into this.
I know it's making you sad, and I'm sorry. But sometimes we have to do things that hurt to get to better things. I need to stop hurting, and I finally feel like I can make some progress without the crushing guilt of bringing you into the pain and watching you slowly unravel.
We will talk soon. I just need this time. I love you.
My resolve is already crumbling, comrades. I knew stat-dumping my Wisdom (6) would come back to bite me in the ass...

Factory Bikes of 2011
For many involved in motocross a factory bike is almost like a mythical creature with magical powers. Even though today's factory machines are far closer to production bikes than the legendary factory bikes of the 80's that were dripping with hand made one off parts, todays factory machines are still bikes that many of us can only dream about riding. Any motocross fan who attended a GP in 2011 would have undoubtedly spend a fair bit of time staring in wonderment into the factory awnings. For those who were not lucky enough to be there to take a look here is a glimpse of what you missed.
