oh, and hon, ian listened to one of the cds you gave him. he liked it and wants volume 4.

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

Liz-- You might get this a lot but I have NEVER seen you without that Beatles shirt EVER. Ive assumed, in the past, that its either soddered to yr body or you have three dresser drawers filled with like eighty of those things...are either of my guesses correct?

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

hahaha! well, i don't have many shirts that i like, so i wear the same few shirts over and over again. but since i do that, i am now getting holes in the armpits of some, so i'm going to have to break down and buy some new shirts. what i want to do is buy some generic t-shirts and put iron-on transfer images on them. or letters. i want one that says "reggae hairstyle rock and roll" and one that says "grippy," and then ones with the isley brothers, sam cooke (a new one), and a roxy music one. or i'll just but the for your pleasure shirt i see on ebay all the time.

Richard said...

Ok, ok...the super liberal just went on a tirade against how she hates all east indians. yes...and im the bad guy. I "censored" her by joining in and saying I hated all left handed people from nebraska. hmmm. comedy is FUNNY.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

so what's wrong with east indians?

Richard said...

theyre violent and hateful and arrogant, greedy and an east indian killed some family members once in canada.

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

yeah!--put me down for a roxy music tshirt, man! Ill cover the cost (and pay double if its an image of Eno in his feather/shoulder pads costume {triple if he's straddling something! I have the same trouble with shirts, in fact all summer people in my neighborhood have been stopping me saying, "excuse me, excuse me, do you know that there are huge holes in your arm pits?" you dumb piece of shit--what the hell do YOU think?!

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

haha... yeah, like you can't feel the draft under your arms! anyway, tim, i found a really cool eno shirt on ebay (a non auction sale), that i will probably buy whether or not it fits (cuz if it doesn't fit i'll fashiona bag or something else out of it). http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200020138391
i just e-mailed the seller to ask the size. if you want it, i'll buy it and you can pay me back. i'm going to get a fyp shirt and one of the pink debut album shirts.

Deanna said...

My shirts don't get holes in the armpits--they just get those huge, stiff yellow spots from the Toxin on a Stick I put on like four times a day.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

that's like rich's socks, except he's not putting anything on his feet. i know this because i'm the one who has to unfurl them everytime i do his laundry, even though i think it's gross and have asked him to not leave them bunched up (hint hint!!).

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

ok tim, here's what the guy said in the email back to me about the eno shirt:

it comes in a bunch of sizes and colors. what size do you want? colors available are yellow, white, tan, pale yellow, light blue, or light pink. i have more choices if i just buy it off their site. alamontrecords.com they have a few syd barrett shirts, too, hon.

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

oh shit I cant believe that exists--its perfect. If you end up getting yrself something--I could definitely go for an ENO in light blue, Large and I'll pay you back. i never wouldve imagined something like that exists! thanks for finding something so cool liz

Richard said...

Check below for the revised and FINAL track list of Disc Two. This is (finally) the equal of Disc One. I've listened to it twice since last night and all I can say is have your tissue ready.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

rich isn't making that up, either.

Richard said...

thanks, Liz.

I guy a work with demanded I make him 4 mroe copies of Falling Deep so he can give them to family members. Neat, huh?

Richard said...

Falling Deep Vol. 4 just to clarify

Richard said...

He told me its the only thing he's been listening to all week.

The funny thing is the music totally won him over cuz when I said it was songs for lovers songs for broken hearted he laughed at said IM NEITHER. And now he's begging for copies...YES!

Thats the power if this music, it breaks your defenses.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

FUCK!!!! you know, i look forward to the fall all fucking year and... god damn it! the two apple orchards i actually have been to and like have been sold to be turned into housing developments. FUCK YOU ALL!!!

so, who wants to go on a road trip sometime this fall? not a big one... just to see the pretty outdoors (because chicago and the suburbs just don't have the best foliage) and pick some fine fruit and not be locked in our housing developments.

Richard said...

I'll go with you, maybe you'll let me hold your hand!

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

of course, hon. i love holding your hand. :)

Richard said...

awwww shucks, start playing the songs for lovers!

Richard said...

Ok, lovey dovey aside, EVERYONE GO TO MARK PRINDLES WEBSITE AND READ THE TOM TROCCOLI INTERVIEW. Fucking fascinating, Tom rules. When Anton and Charlie and Ringo and I form the New Wilburys, Tom's gonna have to be in on that.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

honnn, you should check out the shirts on altamontrecords.com. they have five johnny thunders designs, and the shangri-las! if you want anything let me know. i will buy it for you and you can pay me back. but let me know soon because i'm going to be buying mine and tim's shirts before i babysit today.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

hey tim, you don't mind if megha joins us on saturday, do you? you and kate will like her. rich does. i think d does too. since i won't see her until december and she's free this weekend--and has never been to the vegetarian mecca that is blind faith--i thought i'd bring her along.

and hon, i thought you'd get a kick out of this: that annoying bitch from american idol (michaela, i can't spell) was robbed at gun point. ha!

D said...

Megha is cool as a cucumber in a freezer in Siberia.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

hehe. :) yeah, lindsay's nervousness around new people tends to make her... say stupid things.

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

"that annoying bitch from american idol"

that might be the most general statement Ive ever heard in my life. it means yr referring to the conntestants, the audience in the arena, the judges, the HOST, the janitors backstage...

yeah liz you can bring anybody. I honestly dont even know if WE'RE going yet but I'll let you guys know by tomorrow morning.

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

hahaha... i suppose it was pretty general. but i think she was the most annoying to rich.

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

no no, atually it wasnt general---I was just using it to pass my own judgement on "The Idol"

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

ok we're good for saturday but Im just gonna run in and pick up the cd, say around 7ish?

Mr Bigpants Cock (of the) Walk said...

no no just kidding. seriously, around 7pm

Richard said...

Awesome, its on

que ferions-nous sans vous pour nous guider? said...

yay! but this means, hon, that i will have to go to old orchard for my glasses and computer prior to going to evanston.
