The Flashface site has appeared on Big Blue before, but I missed it. So, today I got to see it, and Holy Cow, is it awesome.
Anyway, that's my best effort at me, above.

Public service annouuncement: whatever you may do in current or future holiday seasons, do not, I repeat, do not, spend $120.00 to go see Trans Siberian Orchestra. No matter how much your friends may say "They're really cool. You're gonna love 'em".
Picture "It's a Spinal Tap Christmas". Only without any of the humor.
The chances of the amino acids necessary for life arising from a random mix of elementary molecules, it is said, is the same as a monkey hitting a typewriter and pounding out the complete works of Shakespeare. To test this theory, someone has created a digital monkey.
May I present: "The Fantastic Typing Cybermonkey"
(I wonder if he's an English Major?)

Professor Don Gresin has kindly accepted to host the 2003 Monkey Butt Marathon in Tallahassee and is now accepting matriculations from his exercise-challenged monkey brethren and sestren.
N.B. Single members should find the list of prospective mates sufficiently stimulating to enroll.

To all my monkey brothers and sisters, I say; Happy Chanukwanzamas! May all your monkey dreams come true and may the great omnipresent prowler in the red suit bring you loads of goodies and no lumps of coal!
And as a mushy side note, thanks for being such a groovy group of online buddies. Y'all rock!

Moochie is home for Christmas!*
*Note: The pictured Moochie is not the Moochie in the story.
I really hate obit threads over on the blue, but we did it for DeeDee and we did it for the ox.

LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Customs officials opened his suitcase and a bird of paradise flew out but that was nothing compared to what they found in his pants -- a pair of pygmy monkeys.
Now, I've had a few strange things in my pants before, but I have never had the...pleasure...of a few monkeys' intimate touch molesting my nether regions for an entire plane ride.
Asked by agents if he had anything else to tell them, Cusack responded:"Yes, I've got monkeys in my pants."
This man deserves a medal for that line. Or something.
Some of you geeks may have already seen this (50 Reasons Why Lord of the Rings Sucks) but it actually made me laugh out loud and I wanted to share. Especially the Homage or Theft? section in the middle.
Oh yeah, and I thought I'd give the Thundersluts a little something to look at. Sure, he could use a bath. And a shave. And probably a little shape to his hair style. And maybe some dental work. Possibly some vocal work. Perhaps even some genital work, although I don't personally know anything about that. Other than the aforementioned details, he ain't so bad!

Have you been naughty or nice? What's on your Christmas list?

Finally, I've got the means (even though the bitch, lovely as she is, remains unconvinced) to burn a CD with my own essential selection. This association has become thoroughly macanized and superdrived. So can we start Round Three of the fabled 9622 Swap? Any takers? Any makers? Who's in? Who's out? And who's gallantly offering to organize?
Let the 2003 swap games begin!

Does Friday the 13th mean impending doom? The first sign of the pending apocalypse - tizzie gets posting privileges!

just a little thing to move tighty whitey boy next door.
So anyway, why haven't they made a BJ and the Bear Reunion TV movie yet?

I bet he isn't playing LC's "Famous Blue Raincoat" . So what's your favourite winter song? [Evanizer made me do this.]

One of the great meetings of the minds in the Modern Age.
You can find many more photos of the Man in The Middle with various celebs of all types here. Fame is a strange thing...

Last time we checked (though I can't find the threads) 9622.net was third in the Google sweepstakes. Now it's #1. And #2. Some anathema-commish thang is #3. The Mother Thread is still holding out at #4. And Radio Taxi Poznan*, at #5, has taken the beating it deserves. As if this weren't enough, our Googlism profile turns up at #11.
So what words have we made synonymous with that effin' ineffable 9622 quality we have become known for worldwide? What is the 9622 checklist looking like at the end of our first year?
*Yeah, where is eeksy-peeksy, our special correspondent in Poland, now that we need him?

If she hasn't already, our beloved Dejah420 is about to bring a tiny little primate into the world. Little Tommy, this thread is for you.
Congratulations, Dejah.
Love, all of us at 9622.net.

This woman may have the wrong idea and the wrong end of the stick but the spirit's right. In the immortal words of our friend Tizzie:
Don't forget, the monkey birthday three-fer started yesterday. Yesterday was amberglow's birthday, today is b****fire's and tomorrow is jonmc's.
*bakes a banana cake*
*adds three candles*
*sings delightfully off-key*
Happy birthday, Bunnyfire! Happy post-birthday, Amberglow! And happy pre-birthday, Jonmc!
