Put the chile's in the chili please...

Made some chili tonight with a few tips I learned from my main man, Alton Brown. I love that guy, and it turns out that beer is good in chili...who knew?

Also watched NotLD in color, with H. It was laughably terrible. With the colorization everything looked not only like it was the middle of the afternoon (sensible--if you know anything about how it was filmed). I just think the problem with colorization technology is that it isn't put to good use. You could desaturate and add in color later to create an awesome, moody peice. But in this case, it just looks like the hosue is full of brand new furniture, everything looks clean and fresh and bright...not at all what George would have done if he'd had color at the time. It's really terrible to look at, but the DVD also has the B&W version, and some great vintage trailers. Woo Hoo!

Plus you know...that movie has a black guy in it...


Everybody in the USA
hates their stupid neighbor.
He's Flanders and he's really, really, lame!
Flanders tried to wreck my song,
his views on birth control are wrong.
I hate his guts and Flanders is his name.

F-L-A-N-R-D-S, he's the man that I hate best.
I'd like to see his house go up in flames!
F-L-A
His name is Ned!
E-R-S
That's a stupid name!
He's worse than Frankenstein or Dr. No!

You can't upset him even slightly,
he just smiles and nods politely,
then goes home and worships nightly.
His leftorium is an emporium of Whoa!

F-L-A
Don't yell at Ned!
D-E-R
His wife is dead.
Everybody hates that stupid jerk.

Springfield's caught with Homer's joyous loathing!
Filling clubs, with angry valentinos.
You don't have to move your feet,
just hate Flanders to the disco beat.
He's your perky, peppy, nightmare neighbourino!

If you like polite left-handers then I doubt you'll like Ned Flanders
or his creepy little offspring Rod and Tod.
That's us. Hooray!
F-L-A
His name is Ned!
E-R-S
He is so white bread.
The smiling mustache geek who walks with G-d!

your browser sucks!
You're Lunch Lady Doris!

Lunch lady moonlighting as nurse moonlighting at
1-800-LiveLinks. What more can I say?


Which Semi-Peripheral Simpsons Character Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

Has anyone else noticed the utter lack of nerds on the streets tonight?
They all seem to be home, watching Star Wars.
Nerdlingers.

Speaking of current events...I hate George Bush, and I hate that the Republican Party is afraid to stand up to his regime. I wasn't sure if you all knew that, so I thought I'd mention it. *wink*

Why is it I keep getting the same characters as you?!

Your SW comment makes no sense. These people weren't outside in the first place. Unless they are swordfighting of something.

I was proudly at home watching last night.. Neardling though I may be.

I love the Family Guy Icon. It was so funny to hear on the commentary how they had to clear thru censors just how many FRAMES they could have of her going down before it became indecent.

ughh

I took the quiz, and guess what? I wasn't even a Simpson character. I was the family guy. Huh? Is that really me?

I wanted to ask you about your chili how good was it?

You must be exceptionally cool!

I see them all the time, at the hobby shop, the internet cafe, the library...or in small groups speaking Kilingon to eachother in the diag.

I suppose I could have guessed that.

Ha. I adruously taped them all from FOX (and like, 3 from comedy Central) so I never bought the DVd's. I'd love to hear the commentary.

The chili was awesome, and this particular batch was loaded with meat...as we are all carnivorous around here! it was damn spicy too!

Ground beef, ground pork and chorizo.

Well, Its one of my all time favorite shows. I need to find some way to get you the hookup. Its great stuff if you are a fan.

I do have some freinds who bought it, I'm sure I could borrow it off someone around here.
