Momentarily Amish

People look upon me with the same disdain usually reserved for Vegans, the DMV and Canadians when I tell them I don't watch TV. Don't get me wrong. I love television. The only reason I do not watch televison is out fo a stubborn battle of wills with Comcast. Oh, they try to sweet talk me back with thier multi-colored glossy flyers. I will have none of it. They done me wrong and that ain't right. I refuse the services of this evil empire and becasue of that I must live the live of the Amish. Life without television. Okay so it's not exactly like the Amish. I still drive and shop and use the internet to blog about the Amish and Melanie Griffith has never done a movie about my community, but other than that, It is exactly the same, well I have a cell phone too, and I wear colors, and make-up. Okay so I am nothing like the Amish. I am more like...a girl who lives in a place that can't get any channels without cable.

It was fun being Amish there for a minute...I'm gonna miss it.

Sippy Cup Theatre

Did you know that at the Intiman you can bring your wine right into the house? Smitty at the bar will even put it in a paper sippy cup for you. Intiman recently won the Tony award for regional theatre excellence....I love the Intiman and I'm not saying there was anything fishy going on but... the whole wine thing couldn't have hurt.
I saw an interesting show there last night. "Heartbreak House" was rather enjoyable. My heart fell a little when we reserved our wine for intermission and Smitty asked which one? Two intermissions. Three acts. I like theatre but, I have that attention span issue. The first two acts were engaging. The actors were good. It is a clever script with witty dialogue. The third act, might have been entertaining as well. I'm not sure, I was distracted. Act Three (or one act too many) took place outdoors. They played a cricket sound effect loop throughout the entire act. It was pretty much all I could hear. Crickets...chirping crickets...chirp...chirp...chirp. It was a good thing I had my sippy cup.

Her Dog Ate Her Face- Part 2

You may remember an earlier post about the first human face transplant.
http://discoderbysmackdown.blogspot.com/2006/01/her-dog-ate-her-face.html
It's okay if you don't remember or are too lazy to click on the link. I'll re-cap
  1. Lady is asleep
  2. Dog eats her face
  3. Lady gets new face.

Here is an update:
  1. Lady is asleep
  2. Dog eats her face
  3. Lady gets a new face
  4. Lady gets a new dog.
Okay I am a pretty forgiving person (Shut up all of you) but WHAT? a dog gnawed off your face while you were sleeping and you are going to get another one!!? Granted, the woman is French, but still! My face has never been eaten by dog, and I'm still afraid to get one. I already stopped using my bacon scented face cream just in case of neighbor dogs.

There is a man in China who had a face transplant (apparently everyone's doing it) He had his face eaten by a bear. I will bet you my life savings that this dude isn't looking to have a new pet bear.

FYI
My life savings consists of about eight dollars and some 1962 World's Fair memorabilia
