The Secrets of Our Sweary Overlords [Gawker]

The always reliable Fred U. Dicker reports that "Gov. Eliot 'Steamroller' Spitzer was at it again yesterday, in a 15-minute, expletive-laden exchange with Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno that left top state officials aghast—and caused a secretary to flee the face-off in horror, insiders said yesterday." Since the "family-friendly" Post won't give you any of the good stuff, we've obtained a transcript of the call and itemized its profanities.

"Motherfucker." [13 times, including salutations.]
"Cocksucker." [7 times, six in reference to Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver]
"Asswipe." [Twice, both Spitzer]
"Asslicker." [Twice, one each]
"Cunting cocksucker sonofabitch." [Bruno administrative assistant transferring call]
"Taint-raping butt-buccaneer." [Spitzer, once, in reference to 1199 SEIU President Dennis Rivera]
"Bitch daughter of a thousand whores." [Bruno, once, in reference to former Lt. Governor Mary Donohue]
"Big-cocked child molester" [Spitzer, once, in reference to Bruno]
"Gigantic-cocked child molester" [Bruno, in reference to self]
"Village fucking idiot" [Spitzer, in re former governor Pataki, seventeen times]
"Dumbass retard Frankenstein" [Bruno, also in reference to Pataki, also seventeen times]
"Big meany." [Spitzer, once, during conciliatory period]
"Anal navigator dickface" [Spitzer, once, during goodbye]

Jean Baudrillard: 36

Scorcese fails in bid for Oscar obscurity

2007-02-26T05:54:00.000Z

Oscars, Martin Scorcese, film

It finally happened for Marty - a Best Director Oscar to call his very own. The legendary director of Taxi Driver, Goodfellas and Raging Bull (plus a number of films not starring Robert De Niro) won, after five previous nominations. (Let's take this opportunity to raise a glass to Kevin O'Connell who didn't win last night - on his 19th nom.) There's no disputing Scorcese's status as a cinema great and The Departed is a more than decent film, but it's some way short of his best. Could it be the Academy thought it best to lay on an honour before his career went all Coppola-shaped...

The Venue was, at points over the past ten or so years, one of Edinburgh's finest nightclubs. It was also the site of (I think) the Fourth Year Ball afterparty in high school, which holds uniquely horrific memories for me. It closed down last year and the site will probably be used for offices or apartments or some other edifice of glass walls and exposed steelwork.

The glitter of shiny things is fascinating small children and seasonal mixtapes are turning café staff suicidal (it should be noted that Cliff Richard singles are like alcohol - not having any the rest of the year doesn't mean that it's in any way safe to have lots all at once. And they destroy just as many lives) which means it must be Christmas.

"But it gets worse/better: Wal-Mart won’t allow you to form a line at the Lay Away window.

I think I've fallen out of love with my Playstation.

It's a lot like that point in a relationship when you realise that you don't feel as strongly about each other as you used to, but don't feel the gap is large enough to call it a day. My PS2 and I, we know there's something wrong. It could be all over.

We used to spend so much time together, racing cars, kicking a ball about, rescuing princesses. These days, I'll read a book, or listen to some music and the console will just sit there and stare at me with its one, good, red eye.

Games are boring at the moment. But, that said, there's this sexy little thing that wants to give me its number...

Tour 3

2005-08-01T20:32:00.000+01:00

Tour 3 can usually be seen as a defining point in the season. If Tour 1 is about making a statement, and Tour 2 is for ironing out glitches, then Tour 3 is when you lay a marker for the end of the season. It should be the first step on gearing up for Nationals.

It isn't, though. While the above may hold true for teams at the sharp end of the A Tour, it is not nearly as relevant to a predominantly student-based team whose most recent practices have consisted of two rounds of disc golf. And while dropping from 5th seed to 14th is less than ideal, there's little use in shaking our fists at the sky and muttering "we're better than this." The fact that it happened implies that we are not.

Perhaps it is the arrogance of youth to believe that a team that has not practiced together for nearly three months can suddenly come together by 9am on Saturday. Perhaps we - as a team - have underestimated the level of ability in the B Tour. After all, riding the coattails of genuinely talented and gifted players at the wrong end of the A Tour is one thing. Making it for ourselves at the top of the B Tour is another entirely. It is going to be difficult, perhaps too much so.

NB: It should be noted that I'm not actually going to make Tour 4. I never was, so please don't think I'm ducking the challenge. Also, I was going to post some photos from Tour 3 to my Flickr photostream, but I didn't take any.

2 many iPods

2005-07-27T16:21:00.000+01:00

I had, many years ago, an iPod. And wonderful though it was, one day it stopped working. You could turn it on but beyond that it steadfastly refused to even impersonate working. So, harbouring an irrational fear of getting things serviced when they're broken, I dodged another malfunction and bought a new one.

Today, I have been stuck in the house all day waiting for an electrician to come and fix the shower (ironic maybe, but only in the Alanis Morrissette sense of the word, which is to say not at all) and decided to pass the time by making his old, broken iPod work. Unfortunately, I got it working.

Bear in mind that this is a marvellous achievement because, frankly, my ability at breaking things far outweighs my ability at fixing them. This newly-functioning 2nd generation iPod is one of the few things I've actually fixed, possibly the first. In fact, I may have passed some kind of repair tipping point, because the long-malfunctioning screen on my eMac appears to be working which makes a change. This is in one regard a Good Thing: I may have gained the ability to unbreak things. In another, it's less than perfect: why would anyone need two iPods?

There is, I imagine, a difference between owning an iPod and, say, an iPod Shuffle given the differences in capacity and features. There's probably a case for having an iPod and an iPod mini, even if it is entirely spurious. All of this means that there cannot really be a case for owning two 'standard' iPods. What's the point? I can store all of my CDs on one and almost all of them on the other one, which would give me at least three copies of most of the music I own. I could gaffa-tape them together and pretend to have a 60Gb monstrosity, though that might limit the portability of the thing.

Or, I could get one of these...

You should cut down on your parklike, mate

2005-07-21T18:42:00.000+01:00

Yesterday, Scotland beat Brazil 5-3. At football. Unfortunately, it's unlikely that you'll find this fact trumpeted on the back page of whichever newspaper you read every day. This is because neither team was made up of millionaire professionals drawn from the best leagues in the world nor, in Scotland's case, Scottish footballers.

Both teams are competing in the Homeless World Cup which is taking place in Edinburgh until Sunday. The game differs slightly from 'normal' football in that there are four players from each side on pitch. Substitutions are rolling, in a similar fashion to basketball or ice hockey and the pitch, much smaller than a regular football pitch, is enclosed on four sides much like an ice hockey rink. Each half lasts 7 minutes, but besides that, it's more or less football as anyone on the planet would recognise it.

Except, possibly, that everyone seems to be enjoying themselves. Even when they're losing.

Edinburgh Hat

2005-07-20T21:28:00.000+01:00

I spent this weekend as I have spent so many others - chasing a frisbee around a field somewhere in Britain. This time, it was a hat tournament in Edinburgh (photos here) which, at least, meant there was no 12hr minibus ride to get there.

At hat tournaments, everyone registers individually and puts their name into a hat that corresponds to their professed level of ability - beginner, intermediate or advanced. I've always thought that these classifications never quite cover the full range of players who show up. There is, for example, no hat marked "thinks he's better than he is", nor is there ever one marked "been playing long enough to be good, but isn't". There's also a period of hanging around, chatting to the people you know about the people you don't, and thinking, "Y'know, I'm gonna be one of the better players here." That is, until some genuinely talented players - in this case, some members of the Fusion team that came 10th at Europeans the week before - turn up.

Then, there's the vagaries of team selection. As it's random, there's always a possibility that there will be a team that ends up without a single thrower on it. It's usually mine. After meeting up with your new teammates for the weekend, you're off and you don't have time to worry about much except how badly you're doing on the pitch.

Which, in our case, was particularly badly. Due to numbers, there were only five teams with the bottom-placed team after the group stage disbanded and distributed amongst the four remaining teams. All of this means that I managed to finish last. Twice.

But no-one goes to hat tournaments to bring home silverware. I went to have fun (check) and to see how much pain I would be in on Monday morning (big ol' check).

Next week: practice in St. Andrews, followed by Tour 3 in Birmingham in two weeks.

Edit: practice in St. Andrews? Five people turned, including only one person who actually lives in St. Andrews.
