Barting to Judgment


We find out tonight if Transcendence has been accepted to the Sundance Film Festival. Four years of work for a dinner at Anchor Oyster Bar and the five of us huddled around Todd’s computer, waiting for what, we are not sure…a press release on the Sundance Institute website?? an email?? 10 PM PST. Are we stupid? Have they already let the submitted films know via email or are they really announcing the selections all at once? If they told the filmmakers before they announced to the public, everything would leak out so they keep it all under wraps. Right? That’s what we are telling ourselves anyway. I feel like I am on my way to take a final exam, actually worse because I have less control, more like waiting for the test results to come through when you aren’t really sure how well you did. Cruel and unusual punishment for the Monday night after a long weekend away from work!

polojones

polo--noun, sometimes verb: def. slang for water polo. in use: (n) I know him from polo; (v) I polo.
I actually do not polo right now, suffering from a bum shoulder, currently engaging in land sports, but that's really beside the point.

jones--noun, conjugates as a verb; proper name, or sometimes, both: 1) def. intense craving. in use: I had a jones/was jonesing to play polo. Or, 2) def. short for Mr. Jones. in use: Hey Jones. OR 3) def. intense craving for Mr. Jones.











Mr. Jones, my 'onsie bones
RIP April 13, 2005

Turkey Hunt

Priscilla and Bob came to SF for Thanksgiving and look what happened in the kitchen. Priscilla claims that this turkey is her 46th...but I think the time she forgot to remove the giblet bag really shouldn't count. Make that 45 and keep on roasting Priscilla.

Now where in the world, you might ask, did she find such a fine bird in the PETA capital of the world???

Well, as the fable goes, "a carnivorous dyke went a hunting"......











And when she found a turkey with just the right plumage, she called in the vegetarians who brandished their clubs and brought that turkey home!
