The Basin Complex Fire has torched one of my favorite backbacking areas in the Ventana Wilderness.
Thank goodness the California National Guard has so much of their equipment and people in Iraq. No more forest fires in Baghdad!

Was having a discussion with the cat about marketable skills, what was she thinking about for her college major, just a general career planning discussion. I told her she should focus on something she likes to do, and then practice at it. So far this is what she has come up with.
and speaking of raging debates, we are having one as to whether at least one of the geico cavemen are gay or metrosexual? anyone want to share their perspective. its not considered gay to share your feelings on this subject.
"On a rather ironic note, though her primary occupation is costume and wardrobe, her feature film debut was completely naked and on a motorcycle in the cult classic, Vanishing Point"
Which by the way I watched last night and despite the surplus of bad acting (you know I'm not talking about Cleavon Little and Dean Jagger) I very much enjoyed. No, and not because of Gilda Texter's nude motorcycle role, I mean all that objectifying of women in movies, the gratuitous nudity and all, it just makes me sick. If you feel the same way don't watch the clip because there's a bit of her in it.

i still cant believe i was hanging out with richard leacock once upon a time and i had no idea who he was. just seemed like an old self possessed documentary filmmaker who happened to be dating my girlfriends cousin. he was making a film about his love of eating eggs at the time for french tv. what the fuck was i supposed to think, that he was in part responsible for some of the most reknown documenaries in history?
then again maybe i was better off not knowing. i might have professed my appreciation for scalawags.

“I happen not to like the things that everybody else loves about it,” he says. While he shot some of the footage of Hendrix setting fire to his Stratocaster, Leacock found it “disgusting,” he said. “I don’t appreciate that kind of bullshit.” And he didn’t care much for Janis Joplin, either. “She was always just full of drugs and alcohol. I remember her coming to look at the film afterwards at our place in New York. She was lying there stone drunk, sucking on a bottle of Southern Comfort.”
