highway robbery

deadwood was robbed!

the writer's guild published their list of 101 BEST WRITTEN TELEVISION SHOWS OF ALL TIME. deadwood came in at #32 which didn't really rankle me too much until i saw some of the shows that were ranked higher. to say that mad men or any of those fucking sitcoms with obnoxious laugh tracks were better written than deadwood, aka shakespeare of the west, is nothing short of blasphemy. if i was a big shot muslim leader i'd put a fatwa out on those fucking guild writers.

the sopranos was ranked number 1 and coincidentally i happen to be watching the sopranos for my 15 minutes of bliss before retiring for the evening. season 1 was great but season 2 is definitely inferior and the slide continues in the following seasons. this is the 3rd time i've watched the series and after season 2 i'll be taking a long break. in my educated opinion, uncle junior and livia are the stars of the series and their dialogue is certainly worthy of the praise but i find myself fast forwarding through a lot of carmella's bullshit. father phil made me want to puke. so it goes.

donald and the tomatoes are doing very well in the warm weather.

i love you sons of bitches.

Nobody had a chance to make a P.Frump joke about my cucumber link, nor point it out to the real BBC to explain the reason for his balding pussy.

you didn't leave a link, just some stuff to copy and paste.

if it was a link i might have looked.

I bet Frasier was higher than 32 too. How long does it take for fruit to appear on a tomato plant?

Where the fuck is St. Elsewhere? The Carol Burnett show at 37? Pfft!!

They're all a bunch of c**k suckers!

san francisco cocksuckers!

the tomatoes are usually ready to eat at the end of august. those goddamn bees are spending all their time in the front yard rather than at the tomatoes.

st elsewhere? never watched it. must have been scared off by the word saint.

Bob Harrison said...

I'm gonna hafta to look at that list. Deadwood should be in for sure the top ten.

Leslie said...

Scared off by the word "Saint"?

What?

Figgers!

Wicked good football team AND part of my name!

billy pilgrim said...

93.8% of saints are out and out frauds.

Is there no justice in the world?

Your tomatoes are looking great.

Hey, is Donald a grape vine?

I think there was an obscure rock group from the sixties named
"Donald and the Tomatoes"

Where's the gnome mounting the turtle?
Replaced by a brick?
And a "Standard Modular" one at that?
I should have thought, you know, with that Norse heritage you keep blathering on about, you'd at least have displayed a "Norwegian" or perhaps the cool "6" Norwegian" brick variant?
Sheesh!



All and all, you're just-a 'nother brick in the wall

And I don't see "Brideshead Revisited" in that list. Then again, I didn't actually look for it.

And I could not help but notice, you've yet to inundate your bucolic idyll with manure - you know, to decrease the probability of an imminent infestation of the homeless?
Best you get on that, tout suite.

A dear friend of The Tutor's is soon off to Iraq. Ostensibly she is on a humanitarian mission - she works for the CIA, actually.
Anyway, she is very concerned that she might be captured by "Insurgents" and forced to perform, on video, pretend "sex acts" with her captors. After viewing the various videos that came out of Abu Gharib in the early 2000s, where Iraqis were forced to perform various sex acts with each other and their Yankee and/or Brit captors, she was shocked and perplexed.
Those Iraqis were not very good at it.
How embarrassing it would be to be caught on video giving sub-standard head? She has asked The Tutor to give her some pointers on how to simulate fellatio, accurately.
He declined.
Any takers?
She's desperate.

billy pilgrim said...

nope, donald isn't a grape vine.

yeah, the area around abbotsford is often called the bible belt. it seems their version of the bible holds chicken shit in higher esteem than the homeless.

The Tutor was "Second Homeless" for a period of time. How would he fare within the BC Bible Belt?

Did y'all know Leslie has three homes? She's catching up to Senator John McCain and his ten, plus or minus, homes.

Leslie said...

I would like to be rid of the cicada party palace with the expensive chimneys.
Interested?

Anonymous said...

The Tutor does not like cicadas. Filthy, noisome creepy-crawly beasts even if they only come out every 17 years or so.

Leslie said...

I bet he'd like them in Sears brand nylon control-top granny panties.

Leslie tushie-taunted,

".......I bet he'd like them in Sears brand nylon control-top granny panties......"

Hold on, I'll ask him.....










Nope.
He wouldn't mind the following though:

Scorpion Thong - how quaint.

Leslie said...

Sadly those are no longer available.

Anonymous said...

Then the Sears brand nylon control-top granny panties will have to do.
Any port in a storm as the sailors say.
The Tutor is aged now, he can't afford to be too picky.

billy pilgrim said...

frump won't listen to me or publish my comments so i may have to do a post for him.

he either considers me a childish nuisance or he's scared silly of my intellect.

I can't stop laughing long enough to comment succinctly. Certainly better than that shite you posted above at 11:58 this morning.
What was up with that?
Ya gave me nothing off on which to play.

Are you thinking of mimicking a Frumpy Professor post?
For that I would pay money!
Big money!
In fact I would pay with this old coffee tin filled with Canadian pennies a friend of mine found in one of her out-buildings - the one that once housed Jack Kerouac, or maybe it was Jack Kavorkian on an 8 week Canadian Club bender.
