Wot obawt poin ted sticks?!?
Um... just not too deep, eh?
Yeah, there's something weird about. You post, and I have no real desire to debate it as an issue or to change your behavior...or mine. I just immediately want to talk about bacon.
For the run-of-the-mill person, maybe they start thinking about radical animal rights or something, as if that has anything to do with your average vegetarian. As if we should make you responsible for this.
Or may it's just Lent and people are getting tired of being temporary vegetarians....
All good theories. And of course you want to talk about bacon. It was the forbidden fruit. Eve didn't stand a chance.
Enjoying some "tea" with Keith Richards :)
Tea with Keith? Tell that story.

Tea with Keith? Tell that story.Enjoying some "tea" with Keith Richards :)
The Stones were using the Four Seasons as a base during the southwest leg of their tour in '94. It was easier for them to fly back and forth and stay in one place and just send the trucks ahead to the next venue than to check in and out of four hotels in five days.
Anyway, Mr. Richards ordered his lunch (liver and onions, English breakfast tea) and I was next up on the room-service server rotation. I go to his room, and when he answers the door, the room smells like a coffee shop in Amsterdam. I set the meal up at the table, fixed his tea, and presented him the check. I could see the number in the ashtray, and kept looking at it. He asked "You'd like a puff?".
I just grinned ear to ear and told him, "I would love nothing more". So he hands it over, I take a couple puffs, thank him and leave. By the time I hit the elevator, I can't remember my name. My supervisor took one look at me and cut me. He was as big a music fan as I was, so there was no way he was busting me.
I was stoked for a week :)

My neighbor was on Maury Povich.Plus he could verbally pwn Dick Cavett AND Dennis Miller in a steel cage death match, tag team OR two-on-one.
I met Dick Cavett outside of Rocky Horror Picture Show on broadway (a musical he was the narrator for) and when I corrected one of his facts he became fascinated with me and started to interview me for five minutes... no cameras or recorders... he just did what came naturally.
As he left he asked me and the women I was with if we wanted to go out for jell-o shots and waved cheerily. Someone snapped a pic of the two of us in embrace, but the flash whited us out like apparitions.

I say this with some trepidation but my neighbors were on Springer.

Yeah. Seriously, people. I think only people who apply for some special license should get to whack somebody as cool as Jade upside the head with a big pork loin or shoulder. ** spoiler omitted **LOL. Why sir, you may beat me about the face and neck with a frozen rump roast whenever you wish!
I don't mean to take myself too seriously... it just start to accumulate and sting is all. I'm done. Over. Sorry.
Hey Jade I am sorry if anything I wrote offended I was actually interested in your diet, since you do not eat meat. I eat too much. meat that is. I have actually chosen to go to noodles and and veggies lately and have given up soda for Lent.
Plus what are reasons 1-4?

I had a lesbian friend who went on springer to try and get her girlfriend back, because if you love someone the way to get them back is to fight with the girl she left you for on national television...
wait that's not right...

Ganoog is ganoog.
Back to silliness and absurdity please. Thank you.
I really hope what I said wasn't part of what set this off (it seems likely because you posted shortly after mine), because what I said wasn't said as anything with vegetarians in mind or you personally, just an old pet peeve of mine that I've had from middle school when people would say humans were outside the food chain. If my comments were the partially responsible for driving you to post that I apologize cause my post was really just supposed to be a threadjack and not an admonition on your lifestyle.

One beef I have with some vegetarians (all puns intended) is when they go all "vegan straight-edge hardliner." Like this america-bashing, art-stealing f@%&head from DeviantArt.
You seemed so polite to each other. He linked to your piece, or was that after you showed up?
Did I miss some 'dA-rama'?
I try to be polite to people. This is just where I vent.

Famous and semi-famous people I've hung out with:
Ian Mackaye
You could have just stopped there...
Only "famous people" I've met are Peter Mulvey, Patrick Monahan, and Brandon Boyd. Though, I did also once walk past Brent Smith and Eric Bass in an airport.

Did he throw you the keys to 'The Eliminator', so you could go ride round town with three babes, who had 'Legs, and know how to use them'?Famous and semi-famous people I've hung out with:
Billy Gibbons
Nah. We used to bump into each other in Dallas all the time when I lived there. He didn't have the Eliminator (I think Frank Beard has it, he's the car buff of the three), but he did give me a Billabong cap in trade for a cool crawfish cap I was wearing.

I liked his Truth is not hate speech piece. However, I wish I could ask him if all hate speech was truth.

I thought Gibbons had a career as a photographer, specialising in the cars he restored?
Anyway, checked on YouTube; cannot believe I can't find the video.
The music industry doesn't need to legislate against piracy, after all. It simply releases 'Guitar Hero', and then it becomes impossible to find the original tracks, among the bazillion grainy cell-phone clips of spotty oiks playing in their bedrooms.
However, there are some highlights...
Anyone watching, who knows me, when it comes to planning my funeral, bear this clip in mind...:)

Yep, looked it up just now. Some of those pics were taken at Beard's place in Rosenberg, though.
The only car in that I ever saw Gibbons with when I lived in Deep Ellum was the '61 Caddy.
And, hmmm, Carmen sure can shake what God gave her, can't she? ;)
Which one is Hank Hill's cousin again?
Hey, HD...your Deep Ellum comments knocked this loose:
Aw. For some reason, I read "heh heh heh" as "hao hao hao." I expected a link to La Grange.
I would like to end the threadjacking and bring this post back to what it was intended to be: criticizing and analyzing Jade's lifestyle choices. Next we will discuss his TV tastes as he was making Happy Days comments in another [unmentionable] thread...
That is hilarious, dude! <G> Thanks for the giggle.
And What's Wrong With Happy Days, CJ?
Let me be explicit: What's wrong with Pre-Shark-Jumping HD?
I mean, once that's laid to rest, I agree, back to criticizing Jade.
Maybe he's a post-SJ fan?
Why does he insist on putting the demonstrative article before his name? I'm not gonna type that every time.

Well if I'm THE Jade, the other Jades don't really count, do they?
Happy days was good until Ritchie left the show. That was the true shark jump for me.
Speaking of, how are things coming with Mrs. C?

Heh heh heh...
The boys in our meat department at work have that printed out and hanging up, funny enough. They're huge Failblog fans. :P

For a minute there, I thought you were talking about Highlander...

I'm not one to kiss and tell but AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
If you're speaking as Fonzie, meh.
Now, if you're speaking as a member of a podcast team, then AAAAAAAAAAAAAY, indeed!

There isn't just one The Jade, actually. I won a cover song contest on Bowienet back in 2000 and made a little splash over there. A couple years later and some Scandinavian band took the name The Jade. I believe the there to be a link.
Plus what are reasons 1-4?
I'll tell you half:
1. My mother was a Reuben sandwich.
2. The positive energies and gravitationally miraculous force of cooked lentils are all that stand between us and the ravenous killer moon. My culinary brotherhood maintains this ancient balance between heaven and Earth because honestly, the moon is an abusive drunk and only manic bean gorging can keep it at bay. Did you know that the largest craters on Earth weren't really caused by meteors? They were caused by lunar head butts.
If you're speaking as Fonzie, meh.
Now, if you're speaking as a member of a podcast team, then AAAAAAAAAAAAAY, indeed!
I hate to go all magic eight ball on you, but Ask Again Later is unfortunately all I have right now. <:|
Don't worry, I'm not really expecting straight answers when for all I know, delicate negotiations are underway. It's more like I'm looking into your guts for signs...ooo...there's a piece of connective tissue hanging on that is shaped like a harp!

You Haruspex you! I've been told my steaming innards are indeed revelatory, but only if you swing them around in circles overhead in a windstorm naked singing Radioactive by the Firm. Those gods sure do move in mysterious ways.
I can see it now. The Jade does his Fronzy impression on the next pod cast.
That's podcastamundo, Jester.

Pleeeaase! Don't invoke Radioactive here! think of the sensless loss of life! Tony Levin will instantly materialize and proceed to pummel everyone in a 100 mile radius with something that looks loosely like a bass! NOOO!! It's madness!!
And here I was thinking "Radioactive" was by Robert Plant. Has it been so long for me to forget?
