Okay, I have about 20 - 30 minutes of pretty damn good COPS-style video of the Neil Finn performance at south by southwest. If anyone would like a copy burned to CD-R, sound off! Those of you who are unable or unwilling to meet me for beer to obtain your copy will need to provide me with a current snail mail address, and please email it to jporter3@houston.rr.com
Much lower quality snippets can currently be seen at my xanga thang, or if you just absolutely hate xanga, there will be a local version of the sxsw recap page, probably later tonight.
Okay now I gotta go back to looking busy at work.

That was SUCH a great write-up. I am SO THERE next year. But will NEIL FINN be there next year? That's the question!

Ahem, Miz Lara, I believe that Mr. Finn is with *me*.
This score was already settled between Witchy-poo and myself by a fierce wrestling competition in oil...don't tell me I'm going to have to wrestle *you* as well!?

Ah yes, a candle-lit dinner with Mr. Finn...and if you go to one of those really swanky places, they'll serve his Ensure in lead crystal champagne glasses.
But that's ok, I was JS humping a bit ago...just better not hear you girls complain about guys 'getting more handsome with age' or some nonsense like that when you're all thinking about just which end of Sean Connery to start on first and what color of crotchless thong Robert Redford likes best.

Er, you can fight over Mr. Finn...I'll take Mr. Sissop.
Robert Redford, ew...Jean Reno, yum
Mel Gibson, ew...Sam Waterston, yum
Conventional looks are boring, with some notable exceptions.
I'm in love with Berkely Breathed and I don't know what he looks like.

Neil Finn is only 43. I don't think he's on the all-Ensure diet quite yet.
You can see a number of pictures (old as they are) of Mr. Breathed at this site here

Okay...I'm a bad bad girl. I fibbed (that's a lie you believe when you're telling it). I actually have that site bookmarked. I hadn't seen that particular page, though, so I bow to your formidable linkescense.
I actually got Mr Breathed's permission to use his characters in my tatoo...I drew them myself. He said, "have at it." I'm never washing my inbox again, sigh.
I am truly a geek.

Ladies throwing themselves at me... that's the story of my life, man. I dunno what it is... maybe it's the white Miami Vice sport coat, maybe it's the dapper-looking comb-over, maybe it's my boyish dimples and acne, maybe it's the pronounced buttocks and beer belly. Whatever it is, it's not always easy being this desirable.

See? Isn't he just ADORABLE!?!?!?! (Lara, I'll be polite and share Sissop with you. You only have to say "please".)
The only old dude I like is probably Patrick Stewart. I want to smear whipped cream on that guy's bald head and lick it off.
Did I just say that OUT LOUD?!?!

My husband had a pilonidal cyst removed in November.
(Gowan insert relevent webpage link here)
And for three months he had to wear Depends (for the wound seepage) and drink Ensure (for extra nutrition to aid in healing)...so needless to say, I teased him mercilessly about it.
So if Neil drinks Ensure, it won't bother me a bit.

My sweet friend is having to change the dressing on her hub's intestinal inscision. She is doing amazingly well at something that would freak me the hell out (but, yes, I'd do it too).

I'm not clicking any link that could possibly show an open wound. Ick.
Harrison Ford is old and hot, as well. And Sean Connery.

all of gowan's links are non-graphic and informative. anyways, the cyst doesn't sound so bad. it's like a pimple you get from riding bumpy things.
though actually, that sounds like your generic STD...

SoS: Oh no, my dear boy, the cyst *is* very bad and very evil. Quite painful when it gets infected. This is the third surgery my husband's had to have on it; they removed an insane amount of tissue this time. (You could actually see his tailbone) *shudder*
Gowan: Thanks for the links. I had them myself, but I wanted you to feel useful. *smoochies*

i hate to ask, but,
what is a colostomy bag?
Response #26

It's a pouch that lives on the outside of your body and, via a tube, collects fecal matter. This is used in patients who are unable, for whatever reason, to pass waste normally.
I think these are covered in the marriage under "in sickness and in health."

i hope that's equipped with some sort of vacuum, because otherwise that would have to be a reeeeeally wide tube.
either way, i don't think i want one. i would rather wear depends and have my nurse or stewardess sprinkle talcum on my behind every hour.

Such a one-sided view of things is one of the things I like about you SOS..it's all about a powerded bare ass as far as you're concerned.
I admire that kind of purity...it warms my heart.

No one WANTS a colostomy bag. Sometimes you gotta have one, though, lest you explode.... like, if your intestines are out of order.
