Some Shakins:

Las Vegas is more fun when you don't gamble and instead pursue adventure like having a drink in every casino on the strip until you end up on the Big Shot at Stratosphere. I've given that alot of thought.

If "Jane Says" by Jane's Addiction is on the jukebox, it's automatically one of my picks. Same with "Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight and the Pips.

Today I considered marrying for money. "Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down." I'm not sure I could pull it off.

In 1994, 80's them parties were incredibly popular, and in my opinion, still are. However, it's now 2006 and I have yet to attend or hear of anyone else attending a 90's party. Why is that? Ain't nobody humpin' around?

I think Chanel sunglasses look funny on guys (it was a popular look in LV), but no judgment.

If you haven't seen 9 to 5 lately - see it now. "Oh honey, Violet has flipped out." "I hit my damn knee on the damn coffee table." "Vera we got another stiff in the john." I could keep going. If you have a favourite line, please share. (Thanks Georgeory for the birthday gift.)

I keep thinking of a line from the song "Swing Life Away" by Rise Against - "I've been here so long I think that it's time to move - the winter's so cold, summer's over too soon, let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow . . ." And how.

In honor of Pat Boone's birthday today, I wore white bucks. And in doing so, I established that I am premmaturely middle aged because no one born past, say, 1954 would get that reference.

I think white bucks are great.

My favorite 9 to 5 line: '...I'll change you from a rooster to a hen in one shot. Don't think I can't do it.' Such a classic movie.

It's not really an official '90s party, but every time I hang out with Karl and Bonner it could be considered that since neither of them have purchased clothes since 1995.

"Jane Says" is Jane's Addicition's best song. Period.

Shut up. It's not the job risk, it's the sytems guys. They always know too much gossip and I suspect it's because they're "watching" everyone.

9 to 5 was on Oxygen this weekend and I caught part of it. It amazes me that Jane Fonda looks younger now than she did back then. I need her skin care regimen or at least Ted's money.

by the way, I still love the 90's and Bobby Brown.

Of course you managed to see 9 to 5 on your "80's Ladies Weekend." Jane Fonda was smaller than Dolly Parton in the movie.

"They got me for tyin' him, you for poisonin' him, and you for treatin' him like he was first prize at turkey shoot!"

I've settled where the palm trees grow, mister. Overrated. I miss my SLC...and how.

You can't beat Dabney Coleman's "Holy Shit!"s and "Shit"s.

Judy "Is that a marijuana cigarrette?"

Violet "Shhhhh. There's not enough for everybody."

"I just don't get it Dwayne. - I just don't get it, Dwayne. I'm as nice as I know how to be to every person at that office. Everybody treats me like a bastard
at a family reunion."
