The Ten Rules - A Lesbian Survival Guide Tuesday, August 29, 2006 musical chimes
I found the following a few weeks ago on YouTube. It's rather hilarious. Plot outline: Ten Rules takes a look at the pitfalls and pratfalls that happen when your friends aren't just your friends - they're also your dating pool.
There are a few rules that are so dead on accurate. Here are the other parts.

The Following is One More Reason Why I Should Move out West Monday, August 28, 2006 musical chimes
Did you spot Kate Moennig in the crowd?
my life is like a soundtrack Friday, August 25, 2006 musical chimes
Someone sent the question below a few weeks ago and I thought I might as well post it here since Men-in-Skirts has been traumatic for some of you.
You may have notices that I haven't posted a new SJR on Wednesday. I'm really busy at the moment and am spending most of my time being a nerd learning how to code this and that. I think the best part out of all of this coding business is when I finally figure this stuff out; I'll have a celebratory drink (I'm having one now). New SJR will be in the next two weeks. I'm also planning a spectacular party to take place in September. I get to wear a fancy dress. Last time I wore a fancy dress I was at a friends wedding many years ago.
Question: If you had to craft a soundtrack for your life, what would be your opening track, your revelation track, your first love track, and finally your end song?
My opening track: Time After Time – Cindy Lauper
My life changing track: Ain't Got No/I Got Life – Nina Simone
My first love track: Pain in My Heart – Otis Redding
My end song: End Game – John Barry
The Dolly Backpack Wednesday, August 23, 2006 musical chimes
Fashion Trend Alert: Dolly BackpackThese backpacks come in all different styles and colors. The above model is wearing a Lolly Dolly Backpack which is for the more carefree, pinkie in the air metrosexual male. The Dolly Backpack is manufactured by the makers of Skirt-n-Strut and has been making an impact in the fashion world with their Men in Skirts line since it's inception. Sarongs, Pareus and Kaftans have been worn by men in other parts of the world. Skirt-n-Strut's goal is to bring forth non-bifurcated garments for men to Western Society.
A representative of Skirt-n-Strut had this to say about the Dolly Backpack and their new marketing campaign:
"No man is ever complete without owning a Dolly Backpack and wearing one of our Braveheart skirts. We are pleased to announce that 50 cent will be the face of the Ms. Lulu Dolly Backpack this fall. We are very excited to have him on board. We have signed an exclusive contract with Mr. Cent and he will be wearing them on his upcoming tour. We feel that Mr. Cent will reach out to a new audience of men who are not ashamed to show off their gams. These men have a flair for the breezy life."
(Model: not 50 cent)Keeping You Posted: My Chucks Monday, August 21, 2006 musical chimes
Green & Slo started a Wear Your Chucks Day a few months ago.I wore my high tops today.

SJR #6 - They Cover Us Thursday, August 17, 2006 musical chimes
Sizzurp
The original formula:
Promethazine w/Codeine syrup
Any fruit flavored soda
A jolly rancher
Put it all in a Styrofoam cup and enjoy. The codeine is mainly responsible for the euphoria felt after drinking sizzurp. Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, and extreme drowsiness. If it doesn't have promethazine, it ain't real sizzurp.
DXM is not a component of sizzurp, although it may produce vaguely similar effects to the above recipe in doses ranging from 150 - 250 mg.
You may ask yourself why the above has to do with the (late - apologies) radio show for this week. Well, I included a cover of Through The Wire in this show and needed a Kanye West image but for some strange reason I decided to look up 'sizzurp' instead. I had no idea they made this stuff. I proceeded to educated myself at Urban Dictionary. Anyway stay away from sizzurp or else you will enter the vortex.

Tupac Lives Monday, August 14, 2006 musical chimes
I always knew of that possibility but now we have evidence. He wrote this song a long time ago. It was the doppest song he ever wrote in 1994. What do you think?

So sorry for putting this out so late. I had minor technical difficulties. Permit me to bring you a short reference in literature using the word neighborhood:
The whole neighborhood abounds with local tales, haunted spots, and twilight superstitions; stars shoot and meteors glare oftener across the valley than in any other part of the country, and the nightmare, with her whole ninefold, seems to make it the favorite scene of her gambols. - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving
