So, yeah, you thought I was going to shut up about swimming? I thought I was too, and then I saw the following photoshoot.

Scorsese needs to make a movie about Fred's manslaughtering misadventures.

Also, I love it when you post things that I have to scroll quickly through so I don't give Kinick-Knack Grandma a heart attack as she attempts to read over my shoulder.

I swear, I keep writing to him, but he ignores me. I may have to move on and ask Quentin Tarrantino to greenlight putting Fred on film.

Hooray! I am spoiled by the fact I've been working from home lately, so I don't have to worry if the army is spying on me and waiting for me to break Don't Ask Don't Tell. Although you never know about those type of grandma ladies. They could turn out to have hidden depths.

I'm not sure Tarrantino could capture the Essence of Fred. Though anyone's better than Lucas.

Although you never know about those type of grandma ladies.

Funny you should say that, because we just drove by an older gentleman getting the mail from his box this afternoon and grandma said, "Well, he had nice legs." Interesting, seeing as my grandfather was a toothpick. She must have had unrequited calf-lust.

I still love Lucas, even though he is very obviously cuckoo-bananas. Ah well, he is like my crazy old uncle. Michael Bay would do it if I told him there would be explosions.

Watching the Olympic trials with my mom has been a new experience; when we are ogling the same people, it is odd to say the least. My grandmother did have a thing for Walker, Texas Ranger, but I chalk that up to Chunk Norris' undeniable powers.

"Basically, if you hear of any unsolved murders involving ice cream men or vendors of Italian ice, I'd advise staying well out of it. Some enemies are just not worth having, and once the ice cream men are against you, you might as well just pack it in and give up."

That sounds like an awesome premise for a ultraserious crime novel.

I will write to Warren Ellis and ask him to take this project on. Maybe he'll let me pay him in cigarettes, or something.

Failing that, I'll beg Brubaker, and if he says no, I'll take a baseball bat to Bendis. He needs beating until he promises to stop writing shitty superhero stories and goes back to crime.

Then we are decided! Savage beatings for all. And a jolly good time was had, indeed.

This one comes off like, "We ran out of ways for them to pose, so we just told them to stare meaningfully at each other."
LOL. :D

Wow. That is DEFINITELY some GAAAAAAAAAAAAY going on there. Jesus. I'm not a swim-slasher myself, but I can totally see what your slash-goggles are looking at. Hahahahah.

I had to go back and read all your posts about Fred the Homicidal Ice Cream man, and WOW. What the fuck, dude, your life. I cannot compete!

I've missed your posts, dude. I'm glad to see you around a bit more again. Oh, and in case you missed it (because I know you totally did) I finished the Dark Tower and rambled about it at great and epic length. And now I am writing gunslinger fic. Lots of it. Argh, SOMEONE SPARE ME.

Dude, seriously! Band-slashers and swim-slashers all nod in sage agreement ( ... )

Awesome, 'cos I'm about to dump more of it on my livejournal in a day or so.
