The greatest honor a film can receive, aside from a Golden Globe award, is to have a drinking game created around it. And Pirates of the Carribean has every hallmark of greatness. Pirates. Swordfights. Men in dresses. Johnny Depp. Thus I have created this humble drinking game. I hope you enjoy it.
The rules are as follows:
Everybody drinks:
-When you see the Black Pearl
-When someone on screen mentions the pirate code
-When someone on screen drinks (alcohol)
-When we see the pirates turn into skeletons
-When Jack Sparrow says “savvy”
-When that one pirate drops his eye
You drink:
-When your character says “pirate”
-When your character gets punched/hit (but not stabbed or sworded)
-When your character picks up/fondles a piece of the cursed gold
-When your character draws/picks up a sword
Suggested Beverage: For the love of God, not liquor. Beer, bitch beer, or weak mixed drinks are recommended unless you want to spend some time in the hospital.

Everyone is back from vacation! Yay! Looks like the 10K + some party is going to be Monday night. Stay tuned for details once we set them. Good news to report, Sarah B turned 21 on May 25. We are all finally legal! Yay again!

Geez. I really know what Sarah meant now. blogger.com is totally revamped. Now even preschoolers can use it. Chun is in New Zealand and Burney and Amanda are in Belize. I'm the only one left around so I feel like I should maintain my fair share of the posting while they are gone. I'm not sure how many readers I attract by myself but I am sure some of you have this site in your favorites, and even though you know the other three are gone on their abroad adventures, you are still checking in hopes there is something new on this page. Well guess what! There is a new post but not much else to go with it. So if anyone has anything to blog about, contact me and maybe we can get your post on here as a "guest TBAA blogger" while the other three are gone. Really, you'd be doing us a favor. If not, just wait around and I'll come up with something witty and they'll be back eventually.

Whoa, new blogger look. I don't know how I feel about this.
Anyway, I thought the song lyrics thing that Andy posted was cool so I decided to give it a shot. If you don't read the Immaculate Ejaculates blog (and why the hell don't you??), what you do is you take your current playlist, hit shuffle, and write down your favorite lines or lyrics of the first 20 songs that come up, no matter how lame or embarrasing. Then you see if people can identify your songs. Some of these are pretty easy, some are hard.
1. Turning back, she just laughs/The boulevard is not that bad
2. All by myself, I'm so much better on my own
3. They both went down to Berlin, joined the Ice Capades
4. But I never saw the good side of a city/Til I hitched a ride on a river boat queen
5. I'm going surfing because I don't like your face
6. Without the room that you live in/Your cancer would eat through the bone
7. Half dead and half numb/She's enough to make me warm
8. In the evening when the sun is sinkin' low/Everybody's with the one they love/I walk the town, Keep a-searchin' all around/Lookin' for my street corner girl
9. Who holds back the electric car?/Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star?/We do! We do!
10. I wanted to walk through the empty streets/And feel something constant under my feet
11. You could hear a pin drop on the carpet floor/Everyone's pretending not to hear them knocking at the door
12. We are fueled by Satan, yes we're schooled by Satan (fueled by Satan!) writing those tasty riffs just as fast as we can
13. I know just what you're saying/So please stop explaining
14. And maybe someday I will see/I'll say please don't tear your heart from me
15. These hearts, they race from self control
16. I don't remember all last year/I left you awake to cry the tears/While I was dreaming
17. Why did I have to break in?/I only came here to talk
18. My heart is yours/It's you that I hold on to
19. Cause girl I will protect you/I promise not to sex you (Extra super bonus points for people who get this song)
20. Been around the world and found that only stupid people are breeding (It was REALLY hard to pick a favorite line from this song, all the lyrics are great)
I'd say that's a pretty representative list of my listening tastes. I cheated a little, since I skipped a bunch of classical music, since it didn't have lyrics, some standup comic routines, and some SNL skits.

So I've been neglecting to post about it until I could get some pictures up, but, as Jenny alluded a couple posts ago, I have a sweet ass sweet new car. It is a black 2004 6-speed Jetta GLI with a 2.8L VR-6 engine, gray leather interior, sunroof, and Monsoon sound system. Oh. Hell. Yes.
3.5.04
I'm bored of my cds. I probably listen to an average of 2.5 cds a day. I propose we have a TBAA cd trade. All four of us, plus any other interested people (So X # of people) will pick a cd in our collection that no one else owns, then burn X-1 copies of it. Then when we trade, you will receive X-1 new cds of great TBAA approved music.
If you don't like a cd you receive in the trade, (besides knowing that you suck and have no good taste in music at all) you can pass it along to another friend in the same predicament who knows good music when they hear it and wants to have a new cd.
