Wednesday, May 26, 2010 So my friend, Michele, gets a Droid phone. And it’s amazing, duh. She was showing me all the apps on there, including one that makes 3 different sounds that only dogs can hear. And get this, you have to PAY for that app. How slick is that? I mean there’s no…
Wednesday, May 19, 2010 It’s Sgt. Assassin’s 44th birthday today! And how does he get to spend it? With some sweaty guys in a dust-choked, humid tent! Yay! I do feel bad about that. But it is hardly my fault, right? No! But since he’s 9 hours away, I need to think of a creative…
Tuesday, May 11, 2010 Stephen Hawking said last week that when extra terrestrials visit Earth, we should be afraid…very afraid. Now, I’ve seen Independence Day, and The Day The Earth Stood Still (both versions). I remember those damned aliens making Richard Dreyfus build an escarpment out of his mashed potatoes. I’ve seen V (both…
Wednesday, May 05, 2010 It’s a 12yr old’s birthday with 6 girls, I think, what could go wrong? Well, okay, so nothing went wrong, per se. It was a drama-packed party. The trip to the mall was interesting because 1) I misjudged the number of girls to seats in the van ratio – forcing one…
Wednesday, April 28, 2010 Yes, I’m totally serious. I need help scaring my 12-yr old. I’ve tried Bill Cosby’s Chicken Heart, The Thing (which the Boston Globe calls the scariest movie ever), Paranormal Activity, Alien, even The Ring. She yawned. And then she asked me why any of those things were scary. When I was…
Wednesday, March 31, 2010 Sgt. Assassin is still home! But I had to share this with you…my faithful minions. About a year ago, Sgt. A thought it would be the most amazing thing ever, to buy me a set of penis drink stirrers. Imagine the hilarity that ensued when family and friends found them in…
Wednesday, March 24, 2010 Okay, that’s probably tacky. It was meant to be double entendre. My bad. Last Friday night, Mr. Assassin came home for a 15 day tour of duty in the Midwest (or has he has referred to it – The Place Where Buildings Are Still Intact & You Can Buy Real Soap)….
Wednesday, February 24, 2010 First things first! I screwed up and didn’t post the contest winners! Here they are: Abigail Beal, Refhater and TerriO! E-mail me at leslie@leslielangtry.com to claim your prize! I was at a wedding last weekend. That’s what the picture is from. Free beer and roses everywhere is just too much temptation…
Wednesday, February 17, 2010 If I did the Olympics, things would be a little more interesting. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Olympics. I just think that with a little tweaking, it could really be, well, fun! -Curling/Rink of Fire: A glaze of grain alcohol on the ice is lit on fire as they…
Wednesday, February 10, 2010 A woodpecker’s tongue has a thin bone in it and curls around its skull because it’s so long. I was shocked, because I thought only bassett hounds and Gene Simmons could do that. My next pet…a capybara, or Rodent Of Unusual Size. They’re legal in Texas. It’s like a prehistoric…
