Hi, I'm Ian's oldest brother Kent. Some of you may have met me, at Ian's Wedding, or Sean's Wedding. Some of you haven't. Yer loss.
I could tell embarrassing stories about Ian's childhood, but as near as I can tell he's already done way better than I could ever do. Or, I could go off on one of the patented Williams Family political rants, but it would be preaching to the choir, and the few right-wing nutjobs who got here by mistake. I could teach you how to make an attractive bookend out of a shoebox and a brick. But I won't.
Instead, since most of you probably don't read my live journal I'm just going to recycle some of my Amazing Discoveries from the World Wide Interbahn.
Before the InterWebbe, there was Usenet News. Usenet was (and is still) a completely free, chaotic sort of international rugby scrum made entirely of ASCII text. The easiest way these days to see most of it -- minus the pirated software and pornography is through Google Groups
That's where I found this exchange: Suddenly and without warning, John Kerry comes into your bed !
What do you call a cold refreshing carbonated beverage?
Ever wonder what a goth guy from Des Moines who writes songs of gloom and dispair looks like? PS he isn't kidding.
And who hasn't wondered what famous actors and musicians would look like if they were achondroplastic dwarfs?
Crazy People run for seats on the Michigan State Bench.
From there to here, from here to there. Funny things are everywhere.
"ANNOUNCEMENT
The Cheeky Girls record label, Telstar have gone into administration because of financial problems."Wow. "Administration" is a much cooler term than bankruptcy. "Don Johnson is going into administration" makes it sound like he's getting a boring job. At least in relation to being Don Johnson.
Outstanding work, Kent! That's one of the all-time best entries on Xtcian.
Happy Anniversary, Ian & Tessa!
i bet melody light is one of those ladies who makes sure to put her makeup on before her husband wakes up in the morning. and then she is mean to him throughout the day. okay, maybe not.
The wacky thing about Melody Light is I know people who know her. I was handed that flyer on Woodward in Detroit, and the opposite side is blank. Her whole platform is the names of the books of the bible.
You can google her. She doesn't sound as crazy as that flyer makes her out to be.
