hello, Ghostbusters. yes, of course they’re serious
I’m sitting on the floor in my bare apartment. mooching internet service off someone’s wireless network. watching “Ghostbusters.” I love this fucking movie.
“you guys’ve been running your ass off, meeting and greeting every schizo in the five boroughs who says he’s had a paranormal experience. and what’ve you seen?”
“of course you forget, Peter, I was present at an undersea, unexplained mass sponge migration.”
“ehh … Ray, the sponges migrated about a foot and a half.”
tonight was my first A1 shift. I still don’t know the styles yet, or the billion little Quark shortcuts. motherfuckers trip me up.
consequentially, we were real fucking late. really late. no joke.
I feel bad about it, and I don’t. I mean, fuck, it’s my first A1 shift, and I started on Saturday. I didn’t pull an A1 shift in El Centro until a solid two months after I got there. and this is, you know, harder.
Bill Murray: you’re never gonna regret this, Ray.
Dan Aykroyd: my parents left me that house. I was born there.
Murray: you’re not gonna lose the house. everybody has three mortgages nowadays.
Aykroyd: but at 19%? you didn’t even bargain with the guy!
Harold Ramis: Ray, for your information, the interest rate alone for the first five years comes to $95,000.
my apartment is bare. mom is coming out with furniture in a few weeks, and she suggests I wait. we’ll see if I hold out that long.
until then, it’s me, a couple of boxes, and this big-ass TV I bought at Best Buy. I don’t have a fucking bed, but I have a stunning television with great picture quality. good thing I have my priorities in order.
Charlottesville seems alright. this job keeps you tired; you eat like shit, you’re tense and you’re in front of a computer all day. but my day off yesterday, Spencer’s homegirl, Catherine, humored me, and we went out for a beer. really good stuff. not far from here. she’s really cool, by the way; glad I met her.
Janine: you’re very good with your hands.I bet you like to read a lot, too.
Egon: print is dead.
Janine: that’s very fascinating; I read a lot myself. some people think I’m too intellectual, but I think it’s a fabulous way to spend your spare time. I also play racquetball. do you have any hobbies?
Egon: I collect spores, molds and fungus.
so yeah, I’m settling in a little. soon as I get some god damned furniture, I’ll feel this place a little more. also, I need to contact the electric company in Bloomington. cause, apparently, you need to show a letter of credit with Charlottesville Utility, otherwise they charge you $250 on your initially get your gas turned on. what the fuck?!
oh, and Mike. lawn care in northwest Indiana! only a week late.

Marge: I saved this newspaper from the day Lisa was born.
Lisa: “Mondale to Hart: [confused] Where’s the beef?”
Bart: “Where’s the beef?” What the hell that’s supposed to mean?
Homer: Heh heh heh heh heh. “Where’s the beef”…No wonder he won Minnesota.
“If you think the United States has stood still, who built the largest shopping center in the world?”
Richard Nixon
“Gozer the Traveler. He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!”
Cat’s the shit. Glad you’re settling in.
Jerry Ford is so dumb he can’t fart and chew gum at the same time.

Politics is my hobby. Smut is my vocation.
