1. Insomniac here

Gimme some booze.

[ZenLefty]

2. How about some red wine?

There was an article written by some quack that postulated red wine is good for your blood pressure. So it must be true. :D

[JohnKleeb]

5. Zen that would be fine man

after all I got good blood pressure :) not bad for a gluttonus pig :).

[ZenLefty]

9. I'm drinking Sangiovese made in Abruzzi

Abruzzi being the place my family is from. A strong taste, dry but a little salty. Salud! :toast:

[JohnKleeb]

10. unfortunely too young to buy legally but I had my sparkling cider earlier

[strategery blunder]

3. Checking in

I'll be up for another 2 or 3 hours...mmm...caffiene...

[Zomby Woof]

19. welcome!

And get out of the 700 Club tonight! :-)

[strategery blunder]

6. Go and see "Kill Bill Vol. 2"

"Kill Bill" is one of the greatest films ever made. I swear. And I'm hypercritical.

IMHO, of course.:D

[Zomby Woof]

8. maybe so

But I am even more hypercritical, and Tarantino is a pretentious bore. Derivative and overrated. Well-crafted crap is still crap.

Won't be seeing the movie.

[Fenris]

12. God you are hypercritical!

:D

[LDS Jock]

7. I'm still up

I will be for some time probably. Listening to Randi Rhodes on streaming audio.

[JohnKleeb]

11. song I am listening to

The morning is dead
And the day is too
There’s nothing left here to greet me
But the velevet moon
All my loneliness
I have felt today
It’s a little more than enough
To make a man throw himself away
And I continue
To burn the midnight lamp
Alone

Now the smiling portrait of you
Is stll hangin’ on my frowning wall
It really doesn’t really doesn’t bother me too much at all
It’s just the, uh, ever falling dust
That makes it so hard for me to see
That forgotten ear-ring laying on the floor
Facing coldly toward the door
And I continue
To burn the midnight lamp
All alone

Burn
Lonely lonely, yeah
Lonely lonely lonely
Loneliness is such a, drag

So here I sit to face
That same old fire place
Gettin’ ready for the sam old explosion
Goin’ through my mind
And soon enough time will tell
About the circus and the wishingwell
And someone who will buy and sell for me
Someone who will toll my bell
And I continue to burn the midnight lamp
Alone

Darlin’ do you here me callin’ you
So lonely
Lonely!

13. Total Insomniac---just finished watching "Dead Calm" and

now I'm watching "Desperate Measures"

[Fenris]

14. Doesn't she kill the dog in that movie with a speargun?

I can't remember quite how the dog dies, but that's saying a lot, because I barely remember that movie. Billy Zane, Sam Neill, Nicole Kidman. That's about it.

[slinkerwink]

24. yep, she did....

[Zomby Woof]

15. I haven't seen "Dead Calm" in years

Wasn't that an unknown Nicole Kidman? Or am I thinking of something else? I remember liking it. (Maybe I am not so hypercritical, but I love messin' with my buddy Fenris) :-)

[Fenris]

16. Ha!

:D

[Zomby Woof]

17. I probably (maybe) will see those Kill Bill movies

It's just that when the critics get TOO enamored, my defenses go up. :D

[Fenris]

20. This one is really good though

If you like kung fu movies, or just really exciting action films (with intelligence), you should like the movie. Definitely better than "Pulp Fiction" and "Jackie Brown". The violence isn't reality-based like in those films. It's almost absurd.

And I've hated a good many films that the critics fawned over! :D

[Zomby Woof]

21. Jackie Brown is his best

Not to be contrarian (who? me?), but I think that is his best by virtue of his fans liking it the least.

Plus, it had too high of expectations following Pulp Fiction.

[Zomby Woof]

18. refresh my memory

Who is in "Desperate Measures"? What is it about?

[slinkerwink]

23. Andy Garcia and I think that guy who used to be Batman is in it

and it's about how a sociopathic killer ends up being a bone marrow donor for this FBI guy's kid, and then the sociopathic killer changes his mind, etc.

[Zomby Woof]

25. Andy Garcia is pretty cool

Not the one I was thinking of... post a review afterwards if this is the first time you have seen it.

Never can have too many recommendations.

26. It's only 10:50 pm here - and I just got back from

driving up to Long Creek in my...............BRAND NEW JEEP LIBERTY RENEGADE................... I never thought I'd buy an SUV, but it's mileage is good, it's gorgeous, and it's the first new vehicle I've ever owned!!!!! (Not a lot to say for me, since I'm only 50...)

ZW - :loveya::hug::loveya:

And I'll use the 4-WD the way it's meant to be used! Way out in the middle of nowhere!!! Here 'tis:



Color is "Cactus green" but we call it "Tanana River Silt".........

[Zomby Woof]

27. NoD!

How goes it up in the Land Of The Near-Midnight Sun? :-)

Congrats on your new vehicle! Can I have your motorcycle now that you won't be riding it anymore? :evilgrin:

Always good to see you! :loveya: and :hug: right back atcha. Have some coffee! :hangover:

[northofdenali]

28. I will only drive the Jeep in winter, silly boy!!!!

But you can come ride with me any time! :*

Zomby Coffee with a little cognac, please.......it's been a crazy day! :loveya:

[Zomby Woof]

29. how about just the cognac?

:D

[strategery blunder]
