"She was a whoo-ore"

Ok, so the idea behind this quiz thing is that you put an X next to the movies you've seen. If you're over 70, you're a "movie whore," whatever that means. Out of 200, I have seen 107.

Moxy Fruvous - King of Spain

Once I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
Oh... my unspeakable wife, Queen Lisa, now I eat humble pie
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
And now I work at the Pizza Pizza

1 2 3 4!

Royalty, lord it looked good on me
Buried in silk in the royal boudoir or going nuclear free
Or playing Crokinole with the Princess of Monaco
Telling my jokes to the OPEC leaders, getting it all on video

Once I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
A palatial palace, that was my home, now I eat humble pie
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
And now I vacuum the turf at SkyDome
Once he was the King of Spain

I can't wait, I'm lowering interest rates, my people say:
"King, how are you such a genius?
There's a roof overhead
and food on our plates!"

It's laissez-faire, I don't even give a care
Let's make Friday part of the weekend
And give every new baby a chocolate eclair

Once I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
Hey Clinton! Hey Yeltsin! Got problems?
You phone me, now I eat humble pie
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
Now the Leafs call me up to drive the Zamboni
Once he was the King of Spain

Ladies and Gentlemen, I introduce to you the international orchestra!

Now some of you might be wondering how I came to be living in Canada
after being royalty in Spain. Should I tell them, guys?
Tell us, King!

You see late one night when the palace was asleep
Out of my royal chambers and into the garden I creep
And I wait till the appointed time, when the moon is lighting the pitch
At which point my peasant friend, who looks just like me
Arrives and we make switch!
(gasp)

Prince and pauper, junior and whopper
World made up of silver and copper
Under my own volition, I took a change of position
So next time you drool in the pizza line
Remember, slower pizza's more luscious
The King of Spain never rushes!!!

Once I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
I was lookin' for off-handed ways to improve us, now I eat humble pie
I'm telling you I was the King of Spain, now I eat humble pie
And now I'm jamming with Moxy Fruvous!

Once he was the King of Spain

Random NIN News

Yeah, so, fall dates have been announced, including four in Florida, and one in Orlando (in the O-rena... I can hear the Jock Jams now). Don't know where all we're going to go, since it was rather tiring going to multiple shows last time, and arena shows are more impersonal(and Indio, CA won't be happening this time, sadly), but we'll see.

Also, there's a new NIN fan club titled, unimaginatively, The Spiral. Costs sixty bucks. Again, we'll see. But it's caused quite a bit of tension over at echoingthesound.org. 30some pages worth of tension, at last count.

There's also a few other mysteries around the board lately, the most pressing of which is, just who IS Batman? However, I have it on good authority that some of the most keen minds around are on the case...

Too Many Secrets

Am I the only person in the world who's seen the movie Sneakers? Even the people I converse with on the Internet are seemingly clueless. Since this is the only good hackerish movie EVAR (anyone seen Swordfish? My boyfriend just about died at the OMG SIX MONITORS bit), you'd think it would be a bit more popular today. Beyond that, I love the comedic aspect of it. So go rent it today. Sneakers, 1992, has everyone from Robert to Sidney to River to Dan.

"Left, right, right, left"

Hmm. Been an eventful few days. Firstly, I had my birthday, and that was much fun; it involved a bowling trip, video camera action, flying chairs, baked ravioli, and a homemade cake (and I wish I still had some).

A few days later, I went to the beach with Michelle and Anthony. That day, too, was much fun; it went something like: sun, wind, sand, water, waves, salt, tumbling, drift, warm, drift, drift....

Sun, heat, stinging, pain, red, hot, ow.

It's sufficient to say I got the worst sunburn of my life. I've always had a tendency to get lightly pink in certain areas (face, shoulders, back, back of the knees, etc), and tan everywhere else. So I put suntan lotion in those areas, and didn't worry about, say, my legs, stomach, arms, etc.

Now, the sunscreened bits are the only parts of me not fried to a crisp. It hurts my stomach to sit, or stand too much. It hurts my legs to bend them. A few times in the night I tried to sleep on my stomach; that woke me up immediately.

Since it's my own fault that I didn't completely lather up, I'm not met with much pity on the home front. To make up for it, I get a lot of ridicule. Because of my stiff toddling, I'm known as The Biggest Baby Evar, and because of the lovely rosy tone of my skin, I'm also The Big Hot Dog. Seriously, I'm practically glowing.

Every time I watch Doctor Who, with Captain Jack, I get the Captain Jack song stuck in my head. For the uninitiated, these are the lyrics:

goo... left, go right go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left

Forward march

Ejo Captain Jack
(Ejo Captain Jack)
bring me back to the railroad track
(bring me back to the railroad track)
give me a gun in my hand,
(give me a gun in my hand,)
I want to be a shooting man
(I want to be a shooting man)
left, right, left
(left, right, left)
the military step,
(the military step,)
the airforce rap,
(the airforce rap,)
the seventeen is the best
(the seventeen is the best)

goo... left, go right go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left
(goo... left, go right go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left)

We're running to the railroad track
Run along with Captain Jack
Badadadideido,
Run along with Captain Jack
Run into the peacecamp back
Run along with Captain Jack
Badadadideido, badideido, badideidideidideido
Badadadideido, left, right, right, left
Badadadideido, run along with Captain Jack

goo... left, go right go pick up the step, go left, go right, go left
