OT: Bullshitting at the Barbershop

[dash]

Tough day at the Athletic as they lay off 8% of their staff (46 people).

So I’m driving across the country next week and I figure once I burn through my Hits of the 70s boxset it’s going to get pretty desperate for entertainment (not to mention places to eat or pee etc. but not much I can do about that).

Anyone have any audio suggestions? Books, podcasts, HR seminars...

driving across the country can only mean listening to Holland's best rock band on repeat
(at least for the prairies portion of your journey)

I’ll love a radar over a DEW line any day.

At the meeting last night, in a surprise move, I was promoted to the rank of staff sergeant in the antifa army!

ICE T has been mentioned here recently and I have a decent 2nd hand account Ice T story. When I was in college I was a work-study in the AV department. I primarily did darkroom stuff. One semester there was another work-study there named Owen who always seemed to know where celebrities were going to be and would often be there to get pictures and autographs. How he knew pre-internet I do not know. Nice guy, terrible worker. He would just disappear when he got a tip.
Owen went to see Body Count in DC and got there early and had a connection that let him in early. Ice T sees him, signs a few things and sits and talks to him for a while. As he leaves to get ready Ice T asks if Owen is going to see him in Philly in a few days. Owen says no as that is a 21+ show. Ice T says to get to Philly early and he'll get him in. Owen got there early, Ice T did look for him s and tried to get him in. Security said no. Ice T Owen was not going to drink and if you don't let him in I won't go on. They let him in.

Years later my future wife and I went to see one of her favorite bands at the time. Owen was there and after the show told us to follow him. He knew right where to go to see the band before they got on their bus and took a pretty cool picture of my wife with the band.

Something I'm working on....
Title Card- “Paramount Pictures

Presents”

Exterior – International Space Station

Text Overlay – “International Space Station

(Outer Space)”

Interior – International Space Station Russian Wing

Three cosmonauts are busy looking into separate screens. A photo of Putin punching a bear looks down. Cosmonaut 1 chuckles as he watches US election results change confusing the pundits.

Cosmonaut 1 – “Silly Americans, from space we can easily hack your elections!”

Cosmonaut 2 laughs at screen as he pushes button that has thousands of bots on various social media sites claim that Weird Al Yankovic is a communist. The screen shows Weird Al and his accordion being hauled away by Homeland Security.

Cosmonaut 2 – “Ha ha, who is fat now Weird Al?”

Cosmonaut 3 wipes his eyes as he watches Jon Snow stab Daenerys.

Cosmonaut 3 – “She will always be my queen too”

Cosmonaut 3 sensing Cosmonaut 2 getting closer quickly turns off TV and types in command shutting **** Hub down.

Cosmonaut 3 - “Enjoy going back to **** magazines America!”

Exterior – A space capsule is docking on the Space Station. On its side are the words: “Undercover Space Pizza – 30 Days or Less or Its Free!”

Interior

There is a knock on the Space Station door, all three cosmonauts look confused. Putin and the bear look confused too.

Cosmonaut 1 – “Who is it?”

Pizza Delivery Man through hatch – “Pizza!”

Cosmonaut 3 – “We didn’t order pizza!”

Pizza Delivery Man – “Compliments of Kim Jong Un, death to America!”

The cosmonauts excitedly open the hatch – when they do a fist knocks one back. A fight ensues. At one point a cosmonaut sprays vodka onto the helmet of Pizza Delivery Man blinding him. Tiny windshield wipers extend from helmet and intermittently wipe the helmet clean. Cosmonaut 3 gets punched into the light switch, the lights go out. When the lights turn back on the three cosmonauts are tied together floating in the middle of the room. Pizza Delivery Man is heading back to his capsule.

Cosmonaut 2 – “Wait, who are you?”

Pizza Delivery Man turns, open his helmet exposing his face.

Pizza Delivery Man – “I'm lieutenant Frank Drebin, Space Force!”

Vodka bubble floats into Drebin’s nose making him wildly cough.



Title Sequence.

The Lagina's should hire this guy who found the treasure. Oh wait this one is real.

Seriously Fenn himself stated he went back to the treasure numerous times to add items to it, even into his 70's. Why didn't anyone just monitor his travels?
