Real French Maids tracking web buzz

Thu, 18 Jan 2007 09:04:21 -0600

Google translate sends us a visitor (see what we look like in French), awesome. Was it wii friend code, john elway dodge, beck, dr. oz?

Nope. I believe it was a real French Maid (I am only guessing, but I think it is a socialist French Maid union of some type) tracking internet buzz about 'French Maids'. It is possible that they have hired a new web savvy maid that doubles as a secret agent consultant to ensure that her fellow sisters around the globe are being treated well.

So, Tim, you better look out. Soon your maids are going to organize and might just want benefits beyond tight polyester outfits and internet fame. Good luck my friend.

Beck's Saturday Night Live performance video

Sun, 26 Nov 2006 09:14:13 -0600

I stumbled across an mpg version of Beck's Saturday Night Live gig right before the Thanksgiving. Before I could link up to it I thought that I would hit Beck's site . . . and sure enough the video from both performances was there for viewing. And . . . the mpg that I had seen was a screen capture from the site.

So instead of linking of to a lower quality version of an already low quality encoding of the video here are the directions:

a. go to www.beck.com
b. get your mouse to top left and drop down boom box and stop audio
c. go back left and get the menu to slide open
d. click the "video" button
d. click the "SNL Oct 2006" button
e. choose your speed

It's your birthday Kris . . . how about some home repairs
My osteoporosis kicks in and dust flies from my lungs
Listening to eat Bears is like listening to a one man band
He's not hot he's geriatric
Digging through saggy skin to find
Betsy, are you one to be talking about that
Fake beer night on the Croncast
Betsy is drinking Clausthauer and I have the Beck's N/A
You were late for your own party Kris!
What about your gifts? Shampoo is a winner
What is going to happen when Betsy reaches 31 in two months?
The wonderful thing is that you'll always be older Mr. B
Betsy is a vicious ageist Cycling through topics
A rehash of the making it to 300 and doing shows everyday
Filling our lives with craziness again for donations
Not like the NPR $1 million bounty for Morning Edition
Even the Germans are in on this one
Concerns about the donations
Slowsky at the dealership
She sits like the Sears tower in Nebraska
Betsy admits to being a conservative . . . in some cases
She may be a moderate now
Voting your conscience and not your tax dollars
The bathroom is falling apart today, see above photo
So happy birthday Mr. B now fix the house
The plan: we will be taking off the month of March 2007

Saturday Night Live and Beck

Fri, 03 Nov 2006 16:56:11 -0600

Nearly a week ago on Saturday Night Live Beck and his mates put on two great mini shows. A show in this case consists of singer, musicians, dinner table, puppets and a nylon string guitar. Now, the video of the performance was removed from YouTube but you can check out a version of it from a German television show sans puppets.
