Emily Profile

Emily Jones joins the ranks of Norm Blog Profiles.

The profile confirms my suspicion: that Emily is one of the coolest bloggers I know. New Order, Dylan Thomas, and a vial of arsenic for Fidel ... I mean, come ON.

Ten vials for Castro, Ms. O'Malley. At least. Just to be sure.

Not to break up the murder of Fidel Castro with something completely girlie and trivial - but does your birth date mean you are a Sagittarian? I am as well.

Viva la Centaur.

Yes, I am a sag. If you believe in that kind of crap. ;)

I had a feeling that that would be your response.

It's not murder, it would be justifiable homicide. Arsenic works too slow too, surely you could spring for something extra spicy for Fidel.

What, you don't think I come off like the New Age astrology guru-type? I've got the scented candles and peasant blouses to prove it!

I think a New Ager wearing a peasant blouse might be more freaked out by Baxter than choose it as the favorite film.

However -

This is not to say that one cannot be BOTH.

I have a couple of peasant blouses. My budget includes a weekly allowance for incense.

And yet ... I'm also a sick and twisted individual. With a wicked sense of humor.

As long as I've got a good Yanni CD to help me chill out after watching it, everything's cool.

Posted by: Emily at April 2, 2004 02:06 PM

hahaha Very nice.

Bill - I would opt for something a little more painful for the likes of Castro, but I doubt I could convince him to eat glass.

Sheila - I'm totally an incense and peppermints person at heart.

Emily,

There's always Drano, I'll hold him still.

I can deal with incense and scented candles, but listen to the Yanni over there please.

Fidel gets nothing short of the full-bore Rasputin treatment: poisoned, shot, drowned and frozen to death. Take no chances.

Dave - I'd forgotten about Rasputin! "The Oracle That Wouldn't Die."

Posted by: Emily at April 2, 2004 03:53 PM

Rasputin was like Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.

Submerged in the tub for 10 minutes. DEAD. And then:

AHHHHHHHHHH SHE'S ALIVE!!

Posted by: red at April 2, 2004 03:54 PM

With the beard and the hair, there was a point at which my dad looked THIS close to being Rasputin's twin.

And any mention of Rasputin makes me remember the wax droids episode of the British sci-fi comedy show Red Dwarf, where they crash on a planet populated by droid copies of historical villains and heroes. Rasputin doesn't actually say naything, but just gets ordered around by Caligula, e.g.:

"Rasputin! Bring forth the trousers with the bottom cut out and release the rampant wildebeest!"
