Strike that rebuttal from the records. It's misleading plus it's too cute. Crowfan, you must have had one heck of a workday. < I'm not sure what that smiley stands for so I used it. I guess it means "I feel like Lee Van Cleef today.'

Or something to do with bondage issues. But stare at it for a few moments too long and it starts looking like Tweety Bird being kidnapped. "Whatever shall I use that 'Tweety being kidnapped' smiley for?"

oh man, that just cracked me up. i actually laughed out loud. i will forever see it as tweety being kidnapped now. we need a new term for 'laugh out loud.' i despise using the "lol" that has taken over the universe. think up something new, chicken. that's yer mission, should you choose to accept it.

I guess it means "I feel like Lee Van Cleef today.' Heh, heh, you guys says "butt". The first hour or two of work wasn't bad as we were slow. Then people started arriving for the Rolling Meadows 4th of July parade, and they were rude. Then as the parade finished up, they invaded en mass and it was horrible. I was scheduled for 7-3, but didn't leave until after 3:30. Then when I get home, fireworks are going off and they continued all night long.

You know, it sounds like the fun has been taken out of July 4th. It's only fun for those who like loud booms and the smell of sulfur. And parades that showcase our smiling, lying politicians about 50% of the time. But we do get to eat Hot Dogs. Putting my aspiring grumpy old man aside I found something cool today. It's this. Cool eh? It's a yellow this. From grumpy old man to silly man. That yellow this connects to a wonderful sight that puts you in the middle of the Apollo 11 Lunar Module moon descent. I have only one word for it: Awesome! But we all know this was fake. After all, it was so easy to fake all this dialogue, that close horizon shot and that flying dust just under the lander. And we all know that wind can be selective and move only one thing in it's environment, so it blew only at the flag and ignored all that wonderful dust on the 'studio' floor. And look at those shadows. Only 87 light sources which would cause innumerable shadows could cause that sharp edged one shadow per object. And where are the stars? We all know you can see stars when there's daylight. And my GOD that walk. Slow motion photography can cause center-of-balance issues.

And did I see Jimmy Hoffa in the corner? That was him alright. Stanley Kubrick had Jimmy Hoffa in the studio and he wandered into the cameras line-of-sight. You can hear Stanley giving directions in the audio. Next up, the fairies pictures from 100 years ago are real fairies. I have the facts. Honest! That is very cool! I'll have to send it on to my spacey friends. Cool is the word. I've gone through it three times already. I think I figured out one of the blank lines that Buzz speaks after the landing as being 'that's next.' EDIT: Make it 'That's it.' I could have just corrected my mistake but there's no fun in that.

I see you kidnapped Tweety again. "Calling all cars! Calling all cars!"
Rog is Stanley Kubrick's cousin. But I kid. I believe it's just short for roger.
