Raymond Burr is one of the thugs that makes Harpo smoke rope LiliLamont: How can they tell if you're a tourist or not, when you're not carrying paperwork at all?

LiliLamont: Another weird casting. stephnfosterkane: no, you have to get a package and be there 14 days, etc. Merlyn: It was originally supposed to be a Harpo solo movie, but chico needed money (as usual), and convincing Groucho to appear for a bit made it more commercial as a "marx bros" movie llanwydd: nite bub LiliLamont: Hell, they want me there for 6 weeks. stephnfosterkane: besides, they want to take away your lifes' breath: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/05/05/outsource_newzealand/ LiliLamont: Good night, Bubba.

I just read a news blip about a lady who was flying to New Zealand, on a commercial airline...and found a small frog in her salad. stephnfosterkane: oh yes, nothing like a nation whose national symbol is a flightless bird going extinct from all the stoats, cats and rats they somehow allowed to get loose there LiliLamont: I read that, too. Why the hell didn't they sautee it in butter, shallots, and white wine? stephnfosterkane: what's really fun is when you land in Auckland and they come on the plane and fog you silly with insecticide LiliLamont: Airline food just ain't what it used to be.

Have you seen walruses? llanwydd: human worms? stephnfosterkane: no, the birds, Lili stephnfosterkane: yeah, the sharks come out of the water and walk right into your house with their big white teeth... LiliLamont: Sounds like England and their quarantine on pets. Merlyn: he came in with bobby darin llanwydd: well, walruses probably eat a McDonalds LiliLamont: Sounds like an SNL skit: "Land shark!" "Oh, Walter." Merlyn: then ernie kovaks started doing skits stephnfosterkane: Laurie Anderson song. long ago LiliLamont: That explains why walruses are in such poor shape. I'm waiting to see the film "Supersize Me". stephnfosterkane: on Mister Heartbreak album, I think llanwydd: goo goo goo joob Merlyn: Walruses have Chester Conklin mustaches LiliLamont: Ah.

Merlyn: oops, celsius doctec: apparently moore knew disney did not want to distribute fahrenheit 911 a year ago, so it kinda looks a little like a publicity stunt that he should come out with the news now, as if it's a surprise
stephnfosterkane doesn't know Jack and never did... LiliLamont: Thanks, SFK. Michael Moore was interviewed yesterday on NPR (or maybe it was mMarketplace) and he said he would get it distributed if he had to drive around in a van, like he did with Roger and Me. Bunnyboy: It WILL be released, and it WILL make money, and I will LAUGH and LAUGH and LAUGH... doctec: on the other hand, maybe it was a case of them indicating but not deciding for sure that they didn't want to distribute it a year ago, and made the final decision just recently stephnfosterkane: he'll get Mel Gibson to release it... doctec: bb: nice rfo ref there LiliLamont: Only if Moore adds a lot of bloodshed. doctec: good to see someone still remembers that stuff stephnfosterkane: at least Gibson finally made a film that didn't blame the Brits for everything Bunnyboy: doc: Oz?

If you miss and hit Oz, you'll end up in a "resettlement camp" in Palu, but if your aim is true, the Kiwis will welcome you and give you house, car and spending money (probably a bit of a problem regarding a work visa though) Merlyn: jax and daxter, or whatever.

Hope Mulholland drive is good to you. c ease: ig desk c ease: me too, but parents are in fading mode Phil Austin: My oldest dog, Waddel the dog, is now sixteen and really addled. But alive. And as gorgwous as ever. c ease: will do all i can to make the transition painless Phil Austin: Sorry about parents. My mom's in an altzheimer's ward and dosn't even have altzheimers. c ease: i really hope Icy the frridge size dog doesnt devour my little kittens while i['m in la doctec: anyway yeah i've been very busy too lately - lots of shooting pool, also lots of music projects. glad to hear waddel is hanging in there - i've seen the picture of him on your weblog, truly a beautiful creature. Phil Austin: She does have a pump implanted in her that feeds morphine into her spine. How bad can life be! She's remarkably happy. I wonder why doctec: i haven't been to the blog of the unknown in a while, i ought to pop in and add an entry or two doctec: sorry for being so scarce Phil Austin: Waddel, Doc, is taking something called Remadil - prescribed by our vet - and it seems to work. He's writin a column for the Washington Post and playing a little golf. Amazing at his age. c ease: The Mullhulands are 86 (ma) 87(pa) so by that time, you would have to expect the body to begin to give way, eh? doctec: puttin' on the dog, eh? Phil Austin: doc/lil Would be great if you blogged a little. It's such a nice group of people, I feel guilty that I don't contribute more doctec: (sorry, couldn't resist) c ease: b?? Phil Austin: cat: Yeah, my mom's 91 c ease: c/ c ease: good for her, phil doctec: wow, 91 - quite an achievement rbfrys: Phil, a half-asleep idea I had last night: George Papoon's idiot son, George W. Papoon, has been president for over three years. But nobody realizes it. Go from there. c ease: 2 of my dad's bro's llived into their 90s. his sister in northridge is 90 now doctec: lili's b'day is saturday a week from now c ease: any ideas for air america, phil? doctec: or more to the point, any indication that any firesign guys will make an appearance on AA? Phil Austin: Lil, happy birthday too early. c ease: bergboy for sure, eh? c ease: he's so political Phil Austin: Cat: what's the general opinion among the concerned, intelligent left about air america. I've been gone for a month and know nothing c ease: seems to have a good audience Phil Austin: bergboy has tried repeatedly to get on and so far, as far as I know, has been rejected c ease: 2 million or so on line c ease: that's fucked, phil c ease: cuz janeane has quoted firesing Phil Austin: Peter isn't well thought of in that world doctec: re air america: the take is that the ride is bumpy and the personalities are a little green, but it does fill a niche that up to now has been absent from the media LiliLamont: Thank you, Phil. At least I'm still older than Doc. c ease: department of redunacy, so she knows who you are Phil Austin: doc: I've got to listen rbfrys: I am a regular listener. Love many parts. Many ideas for improvement. c ease: hey lili. all my love to you c ease: yeah phil, i've never not listened Phil Austin: Lil: what's the news? Kid? Job? doctec: i think the best show (in that it's the most consistently engaging and there are fewer technical gaffes) is randi rhodes' afternoon show LiliLamont: Thanks, Cat. Just think, my daughter will be 34 this year. doctec: she's a good talker LiliLamont: Phil: I'm thinking about changing careers very seriously. Phil Austin: who's rbfrys? c ease: problem is, it makes me so angry at bush, its like wattching bit blown up all day every day doctec: i'm surprised they have that attitude for bergman, i'd think his style of delivery and the topics he'd cover would be right up air america's alley - and they need more people who actually know how to deal with a live radio situation c ease: fuick LiliLamont: I had a call about a gig for my former company in New Zealand, but the rate could be better and for a 24 hour flight one way, they are being remarkably stingy on business class. They really have no room to negotiate. c ease: i agree doc doctec: the 'celebrities' they've got headlining some of the shows are clearly new to the medium and a little thrown by things as a result c ease: he's a natrural rbfrys: Randi is VERY passionate, very to the point. Also a bit of an ego problem rbfrys: Moi Phil Austin: lil: Would you have to relocate? c ease: lili, i wish the kiwis could realize how much they would benefite from your appearance LiliLamont: To NZ? No. It's a short term project. However, doc has a couple of friends in NYC who spoke to me about getting into wine distribution, because I actually know a fair amount about it, just by stint of age and paying attention for years. Most people are really clueless in that regard. Phil Austin: Is Franken being funny? c ease: my dog is bigger than my desk doctec: she'd be relocating to a hotel for the duration of the assignment c ease: and its a big desk c ease: not so much funny, phil, as... to the point Phil Austin: Maybe she could live inside Icy. He's reputed big enough LiliLamont: Cat, I know they would. But Openwave has been so poorly managed, that their mantra is cut costs at all cost. doctec: franken's ok and has had some good moments, problem is it's just moments - he's not comfortable with the technical aspects of the medium which is why he has a co-host there to help him out rbfrys: FST could add more than just entertainment value to the shows. A lot of great humor but they haven't found their "satire voice" just yet. doctec: rbfrys: yes, that's a good way of putting it Phil Austin: Well, goodnight all. I'm heading for Oooooonaville. She's in the hottub and that's where I'm going. We have to get up at five thirty in the morning. I'll be answering emails as soon as we get through this job. Nite c ease: ok, the best thing about franken is his guests. same with janeane. problem with randi is it's just her LiliLamont: Icy? Okay, I missed that part of the conversation. I was trying to let you guys have your privacy while I tended to other things. c ease: by phil. best to oona doctec: they're throwing fastballs but not hitting the strike zone all that often ||||||||| Phil Austin leaves at 12:24 AM, singing "Oh, I'm just a little fishy, floating in the sea, and there ain't no hook that's smart enough to catch the likes of me..." c ease: icy is my fridge size dog LiliLamont: Rats, I was going to ask him a question. Oh, well. doctec: a question about rats? LiliLamont: No, about other work options. I've spoken to you about it before. doctec: i know
doctec ) doctec: ... :-) rbfrys: One of the best things - ALL they hosts are very intelligent, well-read, mostly well-prepared. Only a few, like Randi, know what it is to be in a studio for 3-4 hours. Some are still just getting their radio-legs. doctec: well you could email him about it LiliLamont: You, of course, understand what I've been interested in. LiliLamont: Send me his address and I will. doctec: so, rb - this your first time on this here chat thing? LiliLamont: Doc: Is this your Jeb Clampett mode? LiliLamont: Hey, guys. I think I'm signing off for real, this time. Talk to you next week, I hope. rbfrys: Actually, there's a link to this chat posted on the Majority Report blog. Just checkin' it out. ||||||||| LiliLamont leaves at 12:30 AM, singing "Oh, I'm just a little fishy, floating in the sea, and there ain't no hook that's smart enough to catch the likes of me..." doctec: glad you could drop by doctec: unfortunately, it's very late where i am and i have to call it a night rbfrys: I gotta go too.
