“Say my name now, baby…”

This video (and the song) has mesmerized me since the first time I saw it. I was drunk off my non-British arse. All I remember was what happened in the video. Do you know how hard it is to search for a video that contains an event? But I found it, as I’m known to do with my powers of Googledom.

To this day when I hear this beat I still mentally conjure up this video in my head.


“Hear My Name” by Armand Van Helden.

The whole video is great, but my favorite part occurs around the 2:00 mark. Watch it! You’ll thank me. Or possibly curse me. I’m okay with that as well.

Which leads me to this awesome movie quote: “Yes, you must give us all a good spanking. And after the spanking, the oral sex.”

Happy 40th Monty Python!

Until next time...

Who needs “Yard Crashers”?

Although it would be nice to have the “Yard Crashers” crew come do something with our yard.

Anyway…

This is what I spend Monday doing. Or building, actually.

This is the pergola over the side door. It’s the first of four large pergolas that will be built. The other three will over the back porch at different heights.

When completed, they will all be covered with clear (or smoked) corrugated plastic roof panels so we can use the outdoor space during rainy weather, and we collect rainwater runoff for the ponds and flowerbeds in the yard.

I’m wore out.

Until next time...

That’s Mr. Hotness to you, bub.

I was watching normal television for a change. I say “normal” because I usually only watch stuff online or that I’ve made “backups” of on my computer from DVDs that I’ve, uh, purchased.

Anyway, back to my train of thought. A commercial came on for the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G with Jesse James in it.

Youtube video of the commercial here. And there’s a “better” video of just him here on the T-Mobile website.]

He’s looking better with that gray hair that’s starting to sprout. Hot. Mister Hot.

Jesse reminds me of this guy, or visa versa:

lick to embiggen

Not sure why I posted this, other than they both catch my eye.

And now you know.

You’re welcome.

Until next time...

Bath Time

I was taking my shower this morning and had a thought: What’s in your shower?


Our upstairs shower

I’m probably going to lose whatever points I had left with this admission: All I have is a bar of Dove soap and a bottle of Pert shampoo.

The Husbear HATES that I refuse to use something other than the Pert shampoo. Especially since we own a salon together. He actually covers up the shampoo bottle in the shopping cart in case we run into clients.

So, from the ingredients I mentioned, I obviously don’t have any meticulous shower habits. What about you?

Until next time...
