Marc and Fausto run into the bathroom with 80 other people during Monday's tornadoThe terrible tornado that almost blew the city of Chicago apart on Monday averaged almost 800 lightening strikes a minute. Yeow!

One nice thing about the calamity is that it took place towards the end of Monday night’s Zodiac Wine Tasting event, so suddendly we had to huddle in a men’s bathroom with over 80 men (and some cute women) and several bottles of fine wine for protection. Ooh, yes indeed!

Yes we were scared, but enjoying fine wineA great time was had by all. Thanks to Big Jones restaurant for the food and the always charming Alpana Singh for co-hosting the event with us.

We’re still working hard to raise money to get ourselves to Las Vegas for the podcasters conference and to San Francisco for the final night of Trannyshack

People, please! donate what you can.

Hey good looking, what you got cooking? If you had said that to a caveman about two million years ago he probably would have said roasted tortoise. Yes, that seems to have been a staple in the caveman diet along with lions and pygmy hippos and elephants.

I Am Rich iPhone ApplicationWeb developer Armin Heinrich releases the I Am Rich iPhone application, at the low low price of 999.99 dollars- it’s purpose? To show off how rich and frivilous you are. It does nothing but display a crude picture of a red ruby on your iPhone’s screen. As someone who has guested on this show says “Give me opulence or give me death!”

Heath Ledger’s case is closed! The feds have ended their probe into Heath Ledger’s death, and as a result, Mary-Kate Olsen won’t have to tell them anything. Investigators wanted to ask her where Ledger got the OxyContin or Vicodin that was found in his system, but now they may never know the truth.

Gay Couple in CinderellaCinderella on Ice goes gay in Australia as the show features a gay couple ice skating. The couple in question are not the stars of the show but a couple at the fabulous ball. Gabrielle Walsh of the Australian Families Association balks at the portrayal and calls it inappropriate. She says that “We need to protect our children. They don’t need to grow up any quicker.” Hey lady, kids don’t care who is gay.

I said beam me up Scotty, not blast me into bits! Deceased actor James Doohan who portrayed Scotty in the Star Trek series remains earthbound as the third attempt to go to outer space failed when the rocket containing his ashes exploded over the Pacific Ocean. After three tries, we aren’t sure if there is anything of him left to be sent into space but we are rooting for you.

Happy GorillaGood news! 125 thousand gorillas were found deep in the African Congo. I don’t know how in this day and age that they didn’t know they were there. Where they hiding or something? After all, that’s a population the size of many American cities.

Britney Spears is set to play a lesbian killer in the Quentin Tarantino-directed remake of the 1965 cult classic “Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!” Her character murders with her bare hands and has sex with another girl before the movie ends in a blood bath. Sources say that Tarantino “is convinced Britney will be brilliant… It could turn her career around.” If anyone can do it, Quentin Tarantino can.

Feast of Fools- get it while it’s hot!

So are we all going West?
San Fran? Vegas?
Who is going?
Let me know…….
Love ya
-SAL-E

Great show guys…

I think Britney would totally rock in Tarantino’s new movie. I mean she’s a very accomplished actress. I still feel her lead role in Crossroads deserved an Oscar nod. Anyone?

;-)

Fausto and I are going for sure. Tracy is trying to make it to SF. Amanda is closing on her condo soon and can’t think of anyhting else right now.

If you have to choose between the two trips, I think you should do SF because I know how you love that city and its porn stars and it’s an end of an era.

Vegas will be fun but we’ll be spending a lot of time at the convention and you know what that is like.

Aug 21- Meet 'n Greet at Pilsner Inn at 7 PM.

Teddy, you so crazy….

I love it when Rick is on the show. YEY! At first I didn’t recognize his voice but then I heard Miss Piggy and immediately knew. Fun show boys! I really like the shows that sound like you all are not even taping a show but just hanging out and having a conversation with one another. Love it!

I had such a great time last night… thanks so much for having me over, guys! Piss Miggy thank you, too. She sends kissie kissies and loves you all! :)

125,000 Gorillas YAY!

Always fun to hear from Rick. I love the Piss Miggy voice. Kissy kissy. You guys be careful of those tornadoes. Scary. Ya’ll made me nostalgic for 1970’s TV. I loved Real People. I even had a Real People T-Shirt and poster which I still have. Here is a clip for the young ones who do not know what Real People was:

Update- Apple pulls the “I am Rich” iPhone app.

http://www.bestweekever.tv/2008/08/07/its-all-fun-and-games-until-someone-actually-buys-the-i-am-rich-iphone-app/

Darn it! And I had taken a loan out specifically for that purpose, too. Guess I’ll have to spend that money elsewhere. Wonder what would be a good cause? … hmmm …

Yay Rick! :D I love it when Rick is on. I’m one of his biggest fans! Woot Woot! Great show, I loved the segue between the lesbian wedding and the Gorilla’s in Africa. Hilarious! Wish I could have gone to the wine tasting; of course I would also have to be 21 to enjoy it. So, never mind. lol I heard about the storm. Sounded like it was fun, I love storms. Glad to hear no one was injured or died. So they really found 125,000 gorillas? Wow that is my town population times….125. So yeah that is a lot of monkeys. I’ve actually eaten monkey, well Chimpanzee to be exact. My Korean friend, Soo made it for me in a plate dish. But in my defense I didnt know it had been a cute Chimp until after the meal was over. It was ok, kind of gamey tasting to be honest. Well great show guys!
Matty

I LOVE RICK!!!! :-D — how many gorrillas were found???? —- I wanna know how did they count them once they got to 100,000 LOL.

Aw Tracy you’re so sweet :) I hope to see you at Market Days!!! It’s going to be a gorgeous weekend!! I can’t wait. :)

See you at market days guys!

I heard the Britney thing was just a British tabloid rumor. Tarantino’s next project is a remake of INGLORIOUS BASTARDS. Would be fun to see Brit take on the role, but afraid she’s not planning to do it. But we can always dream…

Meanwhile where is the remake of BARBARELLA? Robert Rodriguez supposedly wants to make it with Rose McGowan. Maybe Britney can sign up for that.
