Whose that girl?

No I really mean it. Whose that girl reading the paper that asks the question "Who's that Girl?"

I don't know. Maybe blake knows that position.

So Blake was 100% right.....again

No not when he posted those naked photo's of Darcy. That was uncalled for dude.

No he was right about Leah Remini and her dispute with Scientology. It seems that she filed a missing persons report with the LAPD about the wife of the leader of the religion. The cops shut it down and said that they had talked to the "missing person" in the last two days and this was all a publicity stunt. It looks like Leah is just drumming up interest for her upcoming book and nothing much more.

It's a shame. It was a cunning stunt when she should concentrate on being a stunning cunt. Or something.

I just wanted to say that Blake was 100% right. I should never dispute him in Hollywood stuff. I mean I didn't believe him when he told me that Sophia Vergara was a chick with a dick but hey...he knows his stuff.

Blake knows that position....but now it is on a milk carton

It looks like Leah Remini is raising the stakes on her fight with the Scientologists. She filed a missing persons report on the wife of the leader of the religion. That is pretty serious. They cops will now have to investigate. This is real world shit not play acting.

Speaking of play acting did you ever watch the "Mentalist." They have a subsidiary character played by Malcolm McDowell who is the head of a religion sort of like Scientology. The whole premise of the show is that Simon Baker is a phony psychic who turns his abilities over to the cops when his family is murdered by this serial killer called Red John. The last six years have been a big tease and they have chased this Red John guy. Well they announced that Red John will be one of seven different characters we have met in the last six years and one of them is this McDowell character. If he is the serial killer who heads a cult it will be a definite dis on Scientology.

I just hope they don't ask Leah Remini to get involved.

When they throw you out why do they have to keep talking about you?

No I am not talking about the Evil Blogger Lady doing post after post about her commenters.

I am talking about Leah Remini and her getting the boot from Scientology.

It seems that they are threatening to reveal her secrets that she revealed in her "auditing" sessions which were kind of like confession for these new age assholes. They have done this before with other apostates.

It's a lot like what Meade did when they threw everybody out of TOP and they all congregated at Lem's joint. He couldn't leave it alone. If they really felt the way they said they felt they would have kept their distance and let it go. But Needy Meady had to jump right in and start duking it out with everyone which caused problems with people who might not have been all that pissed off to begin with. He definitely showed who he really is and I think that was a revelation for a lot of people. Most of youse guys already knew he was a dick.

If the Scientologist start this shit they might lose more adherents and more stuff might come out. I understand why they are pushing Leah out. I mean she is not hot stuff anymore and they want to go with more high profile people. Sometimes you just need to let people go and not worry about it. It is best for everyone.

But some people never learn.

Blake shows his stuff....

DURING the whole of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of the year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, I had been passing alone, on Firefox, through a singularly dreary tract of the Internet, and at length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the melancholy House of Althouse. I know not how it was—but, with the first glimpse of the blog, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit. I say insufferable; for the feeling was unrelieved by any of that half-pleasurable, because poetic, sentiment, with which the mind usually receives even the sternest natural images of the desolate or terrible. I looked upon the scene before me—upon the mere blog, and the simple Amazon portal features of the domain—upon the bleak links—upon the vacant eye-like vlogs—upon a few rank commenters—and upon a few desultory "Let's take a closer look at" posts—with an utter depression of soul which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly than to the after-dream of the reveller upon opium—the bitter lapse into every-day life—the hideous dropping off of the veil. There was an iciness, a sinking, a sickening of the heart—an unredeemed dreariness of thought which no goading of the imagination could torture into aught of the sublime. What was it—I paused to think—what was it that so unnerved me in the contemplation of the House of Althouse? It was a mystery all insoluble; nor could I grapple with the shadowy fancies that crowded upon me as I pondered. I was forced to fall back upon the unsatisfactory conclusion, that while, beyond doubt, there are combinations of very simple natural objects which have the power of thus affecting us, still the analysis of this power lies among considerations beyond our depth. It was possible, I reflected, that a mere different arrangement of the particulars of the scene, of the details of the picture, would be sufficient to modify, or perhaps to annihilate its capacity for sorrowful impression; and, acting upon this idea, I reined my horse to the precipitous brink of a black and lurid tarn that lay in unruffled lustre by the dwelling, and gazed down—but with a shudder even more thrilling than before—upon the remodelled and inverted images of the gray sedge, and the ghastly tree-stems, and the vacant and eye-like windows.

Leah Remini is even hotter now that she is not a fruitcake!

This story takes us back to the murky origins of the Trooper York blog where blake and I had many discussion about how hot Leah Remini was and his adventures in meeting her at his favorite coffee shop.

Now Leah has dropped out of Scientology and decided to become normal. Or they pushed her out because she wasn't making the big bucks anymore.

You very seldom see an actress star in more than one successful sitcom. I mean Mary Tyler Moore, Barbara Eden and Elizabeth Montgomery couldn't do it so you don't think Leah could. The Scientologist assholes proably figured the same thing so they are going on to the next big thing. Maybe one of the Two Not So Broke Girls or something.

It's funny how we go back in a circle.

Blake knows that position.

He is also knows that Lea Remini is hot.

Backing in to it .....so to speak.

I guess it is no secret that I always wanted to be a writer. These little vignettes and stories on the blog are just a way to let off some steam from the creative juices that are bubbling in my noggin. Recently I have been reading about Edgar Rice Burroughs and how he became one of the most read pulp writers at the beginning of the last century.

Looking at a blank page and trying to come up with a story is a pretty tough thing to do. Writers like blake can attest. So I thought I might fool around a little on the blog and start a couple of series that would be practice for a real attempt. I am cheating by using real well know characters form other works. But that is what they call fan fiction and these days this is big business. Eric Flint and SM Stirling both really encourage fan fiction and even print the best of the submissions.

So am going to give it a go. Starting with a Western. With the Sacketts. Wyatt  Earp. Doc Holiday. Katie Elder. Lucas McCain. And maybe some other well know characters from the time. I guess you can call it creative writing of a sort.

We are just trying to do it through the back door.

So to speak.

Unforgiven Part 2

Blake asked for my opinion of the Clint Eastwood movie "Unforgiven" and as with most things it is a mixed bag.

It is a far cry from the traditional John Wayne Western that we all know and love. All of the romance and symbolism is leached out. Or at least the optimistic symbolism. It is a gritty, dirty and realistic Western and one of the movies that best depicts real violence that I have ever seen. I am sure AllenS or RogerJ can give a much better description of what it means to be in a violent situation as they were soldiers and real first hand experience. In my somewhat limited but intense experience with the same a lot of what happens in this movie rings true. It is not a great thing to be a witness or to be involved in violence. You can get sick to your stomach. People bleed and they die crying out for their mother as they void their bowels and whimper as they pass. It is not beautiful and noble and painless like a shootout on "Gunsmoke." It is real meat as it were. Unforgiven shows that in all it's realistic pain and shit and piss and lack of glory. So it does have that to say for it.

Will Munny is a sociopath. He kills and shrugs it off because people are not real to him.That was what a lot of the famous Western hero's were really like. They never show that in the movies even the ones they today. For instance the Earps were pimps and gamblers. They wore a badge to protect their business interests. Wyatt Earp mainly lived off the monies he made from the whores he lived with. The last one was an "actress" who cleaned up his image with her biography of him in the 1920's that has been made in many a movie even to this day. But Wyatt had more in common with Iceberg Slim than he did with John Wayne. So the character of the Sheriff was right on the money.

The ultimate in realistic Western film making was in view "Deadwood" on HBO. It had all the gritty and realistic takes on violence and frontier life but still had poetry and optimism. You see we can forget the actual tenor of the times. The educated types would much more be likely to quote Homer or the Bible or Shakespeare and there was the glimmer of a Victorian sensibility. I mean they did the dirty deeds but they tried to cover it up a little better than you see in "Unforgiven."

I think "Unforgiven" is the best of all of Clint Eastwood's films but it still lacks poetry in my view. But it is well worth a viewing if you have the time.

Happy Paddy's Day Blake call back!

Blake said.....

I don' t drink so I don't have a lot funny stories about St Paddy's Day. The only one I have was when I was living in the valley and I would go to that coffee shop where Leah Remini would always come in. One St Paddy's day I was there and she rolled in really drunk with her girl friends and went to the counter and pushed in front of everyone. This one English dood got all upset and she turned and beat the shit out him with her heavy breasts.

That man was Ricky Gervaise.

But it was ok. You see she thought it was Sharon Osbourne.

Blake is a slut.

Amanada Blake that is. Well she played one in Gunsmoke. The earlier ones in black and white.

I have about the first two seasons on DVD which I bought from the Gunsmoke film of the month club. It is really pretty great. It has great guest stars like Charles Bronson and Bette Davis and Bruce Dern and Steve Forest.

The characters are very different. Later in the show run Miss Kitty (Amanda Blake) gets a lot more respectable but in these early episodes it is pretty clear that she is a whore. She is free and easy with her attentions and Matt Dillon is leery of her because she is so slutty. After a while she gets more respectable and at the end of her run it was like she was a nun or something instead a saloon whore like Trixie from "Deadwood."

But I like it better when Blake was a slut. Just sayn.

What about things that I did for you that no money can buy!

Rupert Pupkin:What about things that I did for you that no money can buy, no money can buy? What about the time I gave you my spot! You came over there, I gave you my spot! You stood there and I let you get right next to Jerry. I waited for 8 hours for him and you went right next to him cause you were crying to me cause you wanted to get next to Jerry and you got next to him. And what about the time I gave you my last album of the Best of Jerry, what about that? It wasn't anybody else it was me and I didn't even ask you for money and I can't even pay my rent! What are talking about? I live in a hovel! And you live in a townhouse! I can't believe this girl!


Jerry Lewis is a dick. He slammed American Idol and other reality shows. No wonder they love him in France.

Whose that girl?

Hey I feel pretty good that no one got the last "Whose that Girl", even blake who almost always gets. I mean I gave a great clue that the woman hangs out in the Meadowlands which as we all know is the actual land that the Giants play on.

Here's a new one. A sitcom mom in her starlet days. Whose that girl?

Whose that girl?

Can you name either one? Just one hint. Neither of them are Madonna but one of them is just about the only singer in the 1980's who was as big a whore. Just sayn'

Mike and Molly- just the way we roll....so to speak

The Mike and Molly controvesy just keeps building. Over 3000 comments on it and Maura Kelly and Marie Claire have taken a well deserved beating.

I saw the actor who plays Mike who is named Billy Gardel on this new program called "The Talk" which is CBS's answer to "TheView." Now blake might accuse me of turning in just because Leah Remni (call back from the oh so distant past) is on it but I only taped it because Billy was on it.

He was very reasonable. He said that everyone said something stupid once in a while and you should accept the apology and move on. He took the guys response. Which is he didn't really give a shit what some stupid twat said. But I wonder how Melissa McCarthy felt being ridiculed like that. I bet she is a lot more sensitive. Did Marie Clarie even think about how the real people who play the characters would feel when someone said "they would be grossed out just watching them cross the room?"

I think it is a good thing that the pressure got Ponds to drop their advertising in Marie Claire.

You shouldn't support someone with you money when they finance someone who hates you.

Hey who's mom is this?

Wait a minute. Who's mom is this. I bet blake knows. I gave a big hint. Well two hints. I just won't point out what they are so you are on your own.

Flashback: Gratuitous bathtub photo, more obscure edition

Since reader-i-am thought my Jayne Mansfield post was too obvious, here is a more obscure gratuitous bathtub photo. A promising starlet of the 1960's this young lady starred in a very famous English movie with a young would be Barack Obama. Or at least that's the movie that played in the head of addle brained blonde's who voted for him. Can you guess who it is?

Flashback: Gratuitous Bathtub Photo If I am still your baby, why don't I fit in the sink edition

Now even though this lovely lady is flirting with the milkman, she is still dipping her toe in the sink to wash up. Every little inch of her body at a time. Can you guess who she is?

Hint, it's grapefruit she is washing off.

Are you pointing those things at me or are you just happy to see me?

Hey blake has a very interesting discussion on his great blog the Bit Maelstrom. Oh the post is about some stupid movie bullshit but he digress into Trooper York territory when he talks about a woman wearing bra's to bed.

Our other good friend Theo Boehm also has a great post on his super blog "A Quiet Evening" post something about that famous pointy bra wearing Madonna skank, but misses his chance to post his favorite photo of Madonna and her two childs.

You guys have to realize the eternal blogger equation:

Point Breasts= hits.

Oy my little yiddisher pickel

"Molly, Molly what have you done with yourself?"

"What you pop in now and then as you go back and forth in time and think I have to wait for you? You nudnick. Who are you the King of Queens.?"

"Well you do have a Leah Remini thing going on here."

"Bite me shemdrake. Talk to Blake about that drek. He says he knows her! Me I am prime kosher stuff!"

"Oh I was afraid of that!"

"What?"

"That means the rabbi inspected you."

"Don't worry it was a dry hump. He kept the meat away from the milk."

What's a Mara with you?

What you never saw a dress that fits properly?
