albadger | I am required by contract to express my disjointed thinking as I recover from California Extreme (Reply)

I am bouncy, wired and witless as I recover from California Extreme, attended today with progbear. A wonderful event, even if the stench of 1980s fashion can never be completely concealed.
Also met there, e_ticket. I got a hug. Remember the episode of Beavis & Butthead where Beavis & Butthead get crushes on Todd? That's how I feel about e_ticket.
I am channel surfing and stumble on "the Marriage Ref" and think, is that Kathy Griffin or a Kathy Griffin-like senitent being? and the other sentient beings are professional show-business persons in the Industry? and this show is deliberately produced and doesn't just happen accidentally-like? and a lot of television does seems like somebody just dropped other TV shows down the stairs and was too lazy to clean up so they just called the broken pieces a TV show the way they laid?
Maybe it's just me, but if you're writing a commercial for a law firm that offers to sue on behalf of parents of children with birth defects, you might want to get an editor to go through the text and make sure it doesn't contain accidental rhyming couplets. It destroys the mood.
I stopped at WalMart on the way home and solved the age-old problem of not knowing which length of shoelace to buy with the simple gambit of buying one pair of each possible correct length. If you need shoelaces, I will have extras.
