Requests and Dead-ications

* This has been bugging me for two days, ever since jblaque linked to this story about a tourist getting mauled by a wild Indian elephant, using this particular graphic:



I get the reference. She's a cousin of Tourist Guy and a great-great-granddaughter of Zelig, but for the life of me I can't remember her Internet fame name.

Help me, Obi-Wan Flist; you're my only hope!

ETA Support came from the FriendsFriends Rebel Alliance! Thank you shadowhuntress for the linkage:)

* I could also use some help with picking an Olbermann icon, something along the lines of the Colbert one I'm displaying here. Seeing how I'm not going to need my 51st and final icon anytime soon,



I'll be retiring that slot until next season, by which time I'll have more allotted to me.


ETA Thanks to erinpuff for representing:)

* For now, though, I could use Keith as an accompaniment to a Worst Person in the World entry, because boy howdy have we got one here in B-lo. Present for your approval Mister Edtition Thompson of Buffalo, New York.



(Can I just call you Ed? You keep setting off my spellchecker, is all.)

Ed is currently hanging out at our county medical center, his third official public residence over the past few weeks. The first was historic Forest Lawn Cemetery, where his cohorts actually bought a plot (so to speak) and held a memorial service to mourn Ed's sudden death at the beginning of March. Trouble is, local authorities weren't buying any of the ashes or dust shit, since they believed, correctly as it turned out, that Ed had faked his death to avoid prosecution for (allegedly) raping and impregnating his girlfriend's 11-year-old daughter.

Ed's second local residence was the Erie County Holding Center, where he arrived earlier this month after being extradited from California. On his way to the plane to bring him back here, Ed (allegedly) feigned a heart attack. He miraculously survived and was presented with his matching set of prison jumpers....

Just in time for Holding Center guards to find him hanging from a bedsheet in his cell. Not surprisingly, Ed survived this ::koff:: attempt, and authorities believe that he ::wait for it:: faked his own suicide in an effort to escape the criminal justice system.  Which, for the time being at least, he has, taking up residence in ECMC.

Personally, I think the best course of action would be for Ed to be exiled to Somalia to join a roving band of pirates, but given his track record he'd probably just confuse everyone by faking a hijacking.

I made this one yesterday, and I don't mind sharing. ^^

Serious rockage, Erin. Thank you:)

(Have I blathered recently that I knew Keith at Cornell long before you were born? And that all us stuffy Arts College English types considered him just as much as a Cornellian as we were, fuck what A Loner Cunt (http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=30949) would say 30 years later? Probably not.)

No, I didn't know that! I doubt that in thirty years I'll be looking for a LiveJournal icon of anyone I went to college with, but who knows? ^^

My conservative uncle blahblahblahed about Smart Ann Coulter Cornell vs. Stupid Keith Olbermann Cornell at Easter dinner the other day. I refrained from pointing out that he did not even go to college. :o

Hope you don't mind. ;-)

That first picture is of Disaster Girl. She recently showed up at Pundit Kitchen, too.

Mind? I appreciate very much- thank you:)

(And scrolling through just one page of your stuff- from the Dexter peeps to the Great Big Sea and Pratchett references? The world needs more of you- or at least my Flist does:)

I miss Dexter something awful. I hate that we have to wait until fall for new episodes, but I suppose it's better to have a stellar shorter season rather than one that lasts forever and isn't as high-quality.

Every time you do a crime, you get caught, so maybe you should do something else.

Oh, Cap'n...you had me giggling at the elephant pic, and then we came to Ed. Ed clearly has a death wish (or so he would have us believe)...let's allow him to achieve his goal. Plug up Ole Sparky!!
