DRUDGE REPORT FLASH 2005�

DRUDGE REPORT FLASH 2005�: "TOM CRUISE: Matt, you have to understand this. Here we are today where I talk out against drugs and psychiatric abuses of electric shocking people (PH), okay, against their will, of drugging children with them not knowing the effects of these drugs. Do you know what Aderol (PH) is? Do you know Ritalin? Do you know now that Ritalin is a street drug? Do you understand that?"

tomorrow tess and i will dirnk whiskey and watch less than zero

new obsession 1: Gremlins theme song

Me- So how did the title screen help bring us into the action that would eventually be known as Gremlins? The music begins out very calm and soothing but then later on becomes very la la la la. How does this soothing title screen help lure us into the Gremlins trap.

Stripe- La la la. La la. La la. La la la la. La la la la la la. La. La la.

Translation- Basically by letting people get comfortable with the slower, more soothing music, we were able to make them comfortable enough to trust us. Then just when they trusted us- BAM! We gave them Gremlins and the harder, more frantic music that eventually drove everyone in the entire world insane.

LexisNexis Ultimate Rewards Framed Research: "Undaunted, Mr. Weinstock slowly began orienting himself to his reconfigured palate. ''Thai, Japanese and fruit were O.K., but almost anything else tasted off,'' he said. ''Anything with a sauce or a melding of flavors tasted muddy and schmaltzy. Processed foods like candy, soda and toothpaste were very chemical-y, almost astringent.''

Ms. Stevens, a freelance journalist who occasionally writes film reviews for The New York Times, helped out by setting up blind taste tests for Mr. Weinstock. She primarily used ice creams and sorbets, since they all had similar, neutral textures. Slowly but steadily, Mr. Weinstock showed progress: At first he couldn't tell chocolate ice cream from vanilla, but later on he successfully distinguished between the relatively similar coffee and dulce de leche. Both he and Ms. Stevens remember that as a milestone.

''My theory was that immersion therapy would help -- lots of stimulus, lots of flavors,'' Ms. Stevens said. ''Besides, the alternative seemed so grim. At one point I found this anosmia web site where people posted messages like, 'There's more to food than flavor -- there's still texture and color and temperature!' And that just seemed depressing, like, 'Ah, here's a red cube, and it's tepid, oh boy!' The taste tests made me feel like we were working on something, making progress.''"

SPECTACLE: Art Opening
I Pity the Dolls! A Collection of Contemporary and Vintage Mr. T Dolls

when: Thur 6.9 (7-10pm)
where: Orchard Street Art Gallery (139 Orchard St, 917.682.6753) map
price:
links: Event Info



For all you fools out there who still worship Mr. T, church is in session. In his trademark mohawk and gold chains, he delivered homilies and kicked establishment butt as B.A. (Bad Attitude) Baracus on The A-Team. Long off the air, Mr. T's tough-love persona still inspires generations of fans and tons of memorabilia. One example of this pop cultural booty is the "soft sculpture" doll, homemade following the officially licensed pattern of T created by Miss Martha Originals. Greg Rivera and Mike Essl, purveyors of the world's largest collection of Mr. T tchotchkes, present over 150 of their unique vintage dolls tonight. Pity the fool who misses it. (NH)
