"CRANK": MY BRAIN IS GOING TO EXPLODE-YAAAAA!

So....this new movie "Crank" starring Jason Statham (from one of my favorites, "Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels".) Ted and I were talking about it, and he had the best description:

ME: What's it about again?

TED: He can't stop being extreme or he'll die. Literally. He MUST keep being extreme or he WILL die.

ME: Is it like "Speed"....

TED:...but it's a person not a bus? Yes. Exactly.

ME: That's crazy......good crazy!

Part of me is going to see this.

Why hello, Ponies. You caught me packing my suitcase. Where am I going? Los Angeles. What will I be doing?

Buckle in for what I have planned - a Night of Cool...

(In order of stops):

The Giddy Cobra - (An old haunt of William Holden and Audrey Hepburn. Pre-drink-drinks. Gil Potatoshoes still takes requests on the piano.)

God - (New restaurant – pronounced ‘Yode’. Dinner snacks. Try the strawberries, lobster and cocoa powder sorbet. It’s 7th chakra-worthy.)

Abject - (New bar - after dinner / pre-oxygen drinks…all the tables are invisible and the whole place is made to look like the inside of a mid century modern Butterfinger.)

Heir - (New oxygen bar – post oxygen-pre-pre-nightcap…the whole place is made to look like the inside of your mother’s womb if it were a rockabilly bar or a Chevron.)

1975 Rec Room - (New bar - pre nightcap...the whole place is made to look like a rec room circa 1975 Boise, Idaho Summertime. A real grandma (owner Sally Kirkland) interrupts your ping-pong game with a plate of cookies and all the couches smell like chlorine and popcicles.)

The Gifted Clam - (An old haunt of William Holden and Audrey Hepburn. Nightcap. Minsky Snuggle still takes requests on the piano.)

Sound like a plan?
Sounds like one to me.
AND HOW!

Who's a Secretary? (ME!)

Yep.

Not that it's really post-worthy...but I'm a real secretary having a real secretary lunch. Usually I can be found having some high falutin' meal such as a slice of pizza (ITALY!) or a burritto (MEXICO!), but today, I'm going back to my secretarial roots. I'm even eating it at my desk. And yes....I'm wearing an awfully sexy pair of glasses, Spanky. So....

What's For Lunch?:

1. Yogurt! - Secretaries live for yogurt. I'm having Albertsons Swiss Style Vanilla, but last week would've found me cuddled up to Blueberry. Secretaries need their calcium (it's true!) and yogurt provides everything to help prevent secretaries from bending over so their bones stick that way and they can't straighten up. I'm three spoonfuls away toward good bone health!

2. Banana! - Just like monkeys, secretaries love bananas and dipping it in yogurt is boss! Bananas provide potassium and if you eat one before bed, your dreams can get really weird. Like the one I had about you!

3. Cup-O'-Soup! - Cup-O-Soup and secretaries have had a love/hate relationship that goes back to the day this convenient snack was invented. Secretaries loved how they could make this soup in no time, and still have a few minutes to read "True Confessions". Bosses loved how the typing pool could keep a-tat-tat-tatting without a needless lunch interruption for their assistants. Who wins? Well...looks like me as I got the last Chicken Noodle!

4. Orange Juice Box With Tiny Straw - Vitamin C all the way! / A road to health we'll meet one day! (<----I wrote that! HAHA!)

Now I'm full....of a well balanced meal!

Like Lunch?
What did YOU have today?
Write and tell us!

Isn't That a Nun's Job?!

True story: On the train this morning I sat directly behind a nun. During the trip, I sneezed very loudly twice. She didn't bless me once. Nothing. She kept right on reading her nun book (which wasn't the bible, but something with a chapter called: "God Hears!"). I know she wasn't deaf because someone asked her how she was: ("Fine, thank you") and also - I wildly gesture when I sneeze.

What gives? Of course I wasn't going to challenge the nun (I just never, ever would challenge a nun like that - also I could see the scenario going the way of Larry David) - but isn't that kind of what they do?

I'm sorry....I guess even though I'm not religious, I expect a nun to bless someone when they sneeze.

Unless....she wanted the demons to stay inside me.

Boy, I must reek of asshole.
-J.

PS - But wouldn't Jesus (if he was real) help assholes?

Apologies to Geoff Haggerty: Baseball Star

Hi Geoff from Elephant Larry.

I stood you up on Horrible Photoshop Day and I feel like I let you down. I let Biz down. I let The Pony down. I let myself down and all those teenage girls who look up to us. Because I wasn't able to post my Horrible Photoshop Day pictures, some teens out there probably now have an eating disorder.

To all those teens with eating disorders and crushed dreams due to me standing up Geoff Haggerty Baseball Star from Elephant Larry: I'M SORRY.

Also...does anyone want to buy me some really expensive Who tickets?
