Stuff and Nonsense
dsch made this. I think it's the coolest thing ever. I've asked him to make me one with Rachmaninov's name on it. 'Cuz old Rocky is my boyfriend, yes he is.

"The most remarkable thing about this phenomenal story of $10.2 million of siphoned bank funds, staggering levels of embezzlement, and millions upon millions of dollars funnelled through the gambling networks, is that the central character is unphenomenal. He doesn't gamble for material wealth. He isn't interested in the glamorous perks casinos offer big spenders. It never occurs to him to save any of his winnings. He lives for the thrill of the bet. And that thrill drives him to incredible lengths of ingenuity and stamina. He is, in the purest sense imaginable, an addict."
Also at Helen's house was Michael Jackson Number Ones on DVD, which I promptly went out and bought. There's no such thing as having too many Michael Jackson videos to watch. I've gotta get my own copies of Bad and Dangerous so I can listen to them and dance like a freakin' idiot, and get skinny. Michael Jackson makes me want to dance 'til I'm skinny.
Go here to witness the staggering progression of Michael Jackson's cosmetic surgery addiction. Only in the U.S.A. can one be born a black boy and grow up to be a white woman.
