the name Montana still instantly makes me thing of Montana Wildhack from Slaughterhouse 5.

kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link

hahahaha

dan m, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:52 (seventeen years ago) link

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:53 (seventeen years ago) link

you know me better than that.

kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Take it to the Teenpop thread.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:55 (seventeen years ago) link

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:56 (seventeen years ago) link

DID YOU KNOW: she's Billy Ray Cyrus's daughter?

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 20:57 (seventeen years ago) link

That I did know!

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

and she's disney's pawn, no?

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know who you people are talking about.

I'm trying to wean myself from "cheating" on crossword puzzles, but it's not going very well. I can only seem to complete one w/heavy internet assistance. :(

Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:02 (seventeen years ago) link

there are support groups for cheaters like you.

Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:05 (seventeen years ago) link

xxpost Yep.

We are talking about Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray's 14-year-old daughter, who appears on a Disney Channel TV show called Hannah Montana in which she plays a girl named Miley Stewart who performs as a pop singer named Hannah Montana. In real life, Miley Cyrus skips the middleman and performs and releases albums as Hannah Montana. Shit's huge among the tweener crowd. And certain ILXors.

I do crossword puzzles on the train, mostly, so I can't cheat.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:07 (seventeen years ago) link

But don't you ever get stuck and frustrated?

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Of course I do. Then I just have to concentrate harder. Or ask Kr for help when I get home.

I don't know who Joey Greco is, but I'm sort of weirded out now by the fact that you sometimes call me Lil' J.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

http://www.oneacross.com is too tempting

Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

host of cheaters, dude!

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:22 (seventeen years ago) link

also: er1c & sarah had their baby.

why that is google-proofed, I do not know.

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:23 (seventeen years ago) link

We meant to tell you guys earlier. Sorry, Nick.

Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Eazy and Sarah Jammerman had a baby?!

xpost

Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I like the name! Although I don't know if it is pronounced with an E sound or an I sound. Also, I had a dream last night that we were hanging out with the baby in Cr1ss3y 6 and K3rry wouldn't shut up about The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

It can be playmates with mine and 3van's kid.

Jordan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm going to go post that on their blog now.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I just emailed eric to congratulate him & ask for tips on how to pronounce it. That is a HILARIOUS dream, dude!

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:26 (seventeen years ago) link

I know, right? Like I said on the blog: "...he kept interjecting to talk about how everything we were doing and saying would've been scripted if it were a "Fresh Prince" episode."

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:33 (seventeen years ago) link

it's pronounced with a hard E. So, K-eye-lee

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:35 (seventeen years ago) link

You mean a hard I.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes. i is tired.

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

It's like Ms. Minogue, essentially. Not what I expected, either! I thought "ie" would be pronounced as in "believe" instead of as in "cried."

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:37 (seventeen years ago) link

that kid is nothin' but last names. apparently it's eric's mom's maiden name.

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:38 (seventeen years ago) link

K!3ly is not in the top 1000 names for any year of birth in the last 150 years.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:41 (seventeen years ago) link

shocka.

sweet tater, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:41 (seventeen years ago) link

"K!3ly" pronounced like Minogue means your parents are bad spellers. That's embarrassing.

kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:44 (seventeen years ago) link

kienan

dan m, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

that would be more correct, yes

kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't think it's bad spelling if it's the kid's grandma's maiden name! Still, I do think she'll be subject to having her name mispronounced for most of her life.

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 21:57 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, i guess it's nobody's fault.

kenan, Friday, 3 August 2007 22:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Sounds like great-grandpa's fault if you ask me.

Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

For not changing the spelling of his last name?

jaymc, Friday, 3 August 2007 22:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, it's his last name? I thought it was the first. Then it's the fault of the gatekeepers at Ellis Island for not Americanizing their name so that the kid in 2012 kindergarten won't have a hard time.

Eazy, Friday, 3 August 2007 22:07 (seventeen years ago) link

What a day.

Jeff, Friday, 3 August 2007 23:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Blackberry's really do drive me crazy.

Jeff, Friday, 3 August 2007 23:50 (seventeen years ago) link

It's like Oak Park thinks they are too good for the Chicago numbering system.

actually nick this dates back to before chicago had annexed the village of austin (now the austin neighborhood, but previously it's own town) to when the city limits were miles to the east. a lot of western burbs changed their numbering systems when chicago began annexing surrounding locales, oak park did not wish to be annexed and never changed. you may also notice that division is the 800N block in oak park as well as they use lake st. as the dividing point for north and south.

I r bored on a weekend nite again. I think I'm going to go to Sm.Bar in a while if anyone's interested.

dan m, Saturday, 4 August 2007 02:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I had a fancy wristband to go to a priv party at the Hideout with T. Leo and the main Spoon guy DJ-ing but did not go, nor did I go to The Go, but I saw Sicko (v. good) and talked with good friends.

Kevin, is this your stuff?

Eazy, Saturday, 4 August 2007 06:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Spoon guy is a notorious dick, anyway.
