cheap red? why didn't you say so? i'll take the first delayed ferry sailing down there!

the butter-on-the-paws thing works on the premise that cats will only clean themselves if they're comfortable/not threatened ['cause it leaves them vulnerable to attack]. so the butter sorta...induces them to wash earlier. doesn't necessarily make the cat feel any more settled - that's an old wives' tale.

just make sure he has plenty of drinking water under there, try to restrain the dog to another part of the house, and don't subject its hypersensitive wee ears to frightful hippy jams!

useful conversation starters for you, duane:

"what are you wearing?"

"really? i'm a hottt 17 year old cheerleader too"

"grunt...shit, got a tissue?"

― petra jane, Wednesday, 3 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

man my computer has so many annoying dialogue boxes that pop up all the time. i've seen about seven. but it's fast and the keyboard feels nice.

― maryann, Wednesday, 3 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I'm reading 'How to be popular" by Marcia Brady. Is it really true that guys prefer that your eyes never wander away from their face?

PLEASE, no comparing or associating dan brady with my lovely jan.
(the jan in the brady bunch movies, with braces, is MINE...i'm only willing to share her with george glass).

What are you mad people doing down there? You freaks, you oddballs. This is the type of thing I'm going to have to get used to when I visit, isn't it!

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

down here...we have our feet where other people have their head, you know.

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I thought you only had one foot and you raised it above your head to act as an umbrella.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I've only been following Marcia Brady's advice for 1 hour and already I have ten boyfriends. Don't try it, it's like what happened to King Midas!

― maryann, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

A line from a Lotion song keeps playing in my head "We've been begging for a while, come and live in our square mile"....

Hey! I just noticed a bunch of filing cabinets outside, I'm going to take a look!

― jel --, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Hey Duane, Maryann--you like Steve McDonald, right? Go to the Redd Kross website, there's a really funny film of him preparing for the debut show of the Steven McDonald Group next week. "'Frosted Flake', you devil!"

It's just reddkross.com, you probably know that...

― Arthur, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

hey duane, i'm bored too, but i have just about finished work and we have a show tonight, but we will probably suck, 'cos everyone's personal life is complete pooh, breakin' up an' stuff, drug-fucked etc. etc., but maybe that will make us good, y'know, it might prove "carthartically triumphant" or something....

― c., Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

arthur - thanks! OK I will!
cam - wish i was there...well sort of...it'd be too much hassle geting home tho.

― , Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

arthur i watched that thing - it was cool - it's probably supposed to have sound tho' right? - are ou going to that show, is that in yr town?
Cam who broke up? you & jayne? i hope not but hey if you did do you want to go out with me? you know 'cause i'm mature enough now to handle a long-range relationship & stuff...

― , Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

jel how were the filing cabinets, worth salvaging? finding furniture on the st. is a very satisfying thing.

― , Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Duane, I got your email. I'm going to the "rugby" tonight. I'm scared that I am going find out the real reason they call it "the house of pain" and I feel sickened at the thought of so many people in one place. luckily I am going to be sitting somewhere swanky and there is going to be snacks and things.

maybe I will have thought of something interesting to say when I get back, we'll just have to wait and see though.

― rainy, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

you're going to the RUGBY? like WHY?

― , Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

to see what its like, and for the snacks. Don't worry I didn't pay for the ticket or anything.

― rainy, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Duane if you're reading this write to me

― maryann, Thursday, 4 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

following marcia brady's lovelife/scoring advice, doesn't that mean like the ultimate is to pash it up and get down with your brother. i hate marcia. jan's coming to visit (look she's grown up a bit now, blah blah pedophile disclaimer that i can just joke about 'cause i'm not a man) and she's bringing george and i shall attempt to get them both to root me AND my boyfriend (probably separately, we're not creepos). sorry hamish. there's something wrong with me today. actually i just like to keep any threads vaguely to do with dunedin going, with any flimsy blah i can think of. who the hell sed pot was easy to get here anyway, and then how come everyone is claiming/complaining they ccan't get it. when will that beneficient alien fungi burst forth in the town belt (or wherever else in this town; i wouldn't know)?

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Friday, 5 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Duane, yeah, the show's at Spaceland in Silverlake the weekend after next. I'll let you know how it goes. I just found out Arthur Lee played there this week. Nobody told me! And, yeah, there is sound with that Steve McDonald clip, it's just a bunch of pre-concert audience noise and some rock intro-type music.

i don't think so but i am bad at remembering ppl's names & also there is probably lotsa peops that i kind of vaguely know in dunedin but i have only lived here a year & i met them before i lived here & havent seen them for ages & stuff. i'd prob'ly remember someone called seth tho, it's a quite a unusual name .

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

rainy i hate it when ppl shoot me down "politely" goddam it to fuckin hell & shit!

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

seth is friends with my friend folina. he stayed at her house when 99 came here earlier this year.

hey lindsay is the geeky brown-haired girl innit she? the mammas/pappas daughter girl was blond n badass. i liked her way better. i don't remember the intersex girl. not surprising though, i remember numbers, not people and events.

― di, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

so did you see that movie duane?

― di, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

oh rilly? what was her number then?

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

do ya think i'm telling you? she's MINE, dammit.

― di, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

― unknown or illegal user, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

doesn't matter anyway cuz lindsay and blond badass ran away into the sunset toghther - well to a gratefull dead tour but my version is nicer.

― ducklingmonster, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

yeah that was great duckling (err...except for the grateful dead bit - at the risk of inciting the wrath of duane deadhead faigan).
was it really the last episode or just the last episode before the show got pulled in NZ?

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

re: BRITNEY MOVIE
i would go if:
1. had the assistence of pot, or something to help our
2. i like to sit in the front row. close to centre as poss (often the theatres stupidly have aisles right down the centre where the best fuckin seats would be) 3. ummm...some other reason/coping mechanism. (any ideas or enticements?)

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

i'm not going to the movies with you liz. sitting in the front row could ruin my reputation. ps i'm not a sleaze, but yr a tease. oh umm anyhow duckling whens yr party again?

― di, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

britney movie = "dude, where's my car" + car?

― geeta, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

sitting in the very front row is RIGHT and PROPER. it is the only way. isn't there anyon else in bloody dunedin who UNDERSTANDS this??? i used to go to at least a movie a week the whole ten billion miserable years i lived in auckland, now down here it's a problem 'cause i don't have my beloved movie buddy who understand the front row centre thing, and likes kurt russell, and james woods (okay well everyone likes him right although that vampire movie he was in even he couldn't save it from extreme suckoness) and blah blah blah

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Sunday, 7 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

yeah liz if you come to that flick w/ me we can sit RIGHT THE HELL UP THE FRONT & smoke a J right there in the place, way to stick it 2 tha man!!!

― unknown or illegal deadhead, Monday, 8 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

but last time i "smoked a j" [actually = months old leftovers from a completely crappy ass pipe] i got a real sore throat, an then i got sick. so basically you should bake it for me* (good in biscuits or doughey damper type stuff with vanilla...who's hogging all the weed in these parts anyway)

*i am delicate. and smoking is bad for your health.

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Monday, 8 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

DON'T DO IT.

it's a truly abominable film. and not in the good way. it has three of the most unlikable personalities ever put to film on screen at the same time. and it doesn't even have very sexy whores in it's videos (c. 2001 kodanshi.)

― jess, Monday, 8 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

yeah the whores

― maryann, Monday, 8 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link
