ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space

So it's been awhile since I wrote in this thing. I wonder what percentage of LJ entries start off with that sentence? 40%? 50? At least

I've been more aware of Laid-Back Dan moreso than Has-Hydrocephalus Dan. In fact, the only time I was aware of the latter was when I was That Guy and said, "Whoa, dude, you have a huge pulsing neck vein!" and you had to explain that it was a shunt.

Thus, I never thought you were super-stressed all the time. In fact, the only time I can recall you getting worked up was when we were denied entry to the Brendan Benson show that required a long walk through rain and the bearing of Addison red line traffic due to a just-let-out Cubs game. That was pretty lame; nothing more lame than two guys who say they're on The List but apparently aren't, in which all they can do is look like idiots when they have to turn around and, you know, leave.

Ahahaha, oh man! I had totally forgotten about that Brendan Benson show! Being on The List and suddenly NOT on The List is thoroughly embarrassing.

We were like Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau in that scene in Swingers when they go to the high-stakes blackjack table and look like a bunch of fools.

uh...Cardiff Giant. C'mon. check the list. Cardiff...Giant.

I still use that when I assign someone a password.

P.S. You know that's Made, not Swingers, right? Doesn't matter, they're basically the same movie. The same chemistry and characters, at least.

That was me. I cleared my cache in a fit or paranoia or something

When I replied with the line, I was thinking, "I think that's made, anyhow." But like you said, it doesn't make any difference. Same movie. I need to own both, too.

They actually sell them as a single DVD set! They're not just packaged together, they're in the same physical case. I guess they realize that if people like one, they'll probably like the other, barring the fact that they're completely different movies.

But why bother to buy DVDs when there's this new fancy HD-DVD and Blue Rays stuff coming out that will make us re-buy our movie collection all over again? It's all pointless, since physical media won't exist in five years!
