Inert Ramblings

Day: October 20, 2003

  • 4 Oak St. in Woburn doesn’t exist…

    No big surprise here. After the time traveler pissed me off by sending out spam with inertramblings.com in the return address, I checked out the alleged mailing address from his whois info. Figures…4 Oak St. doesn’t exist in Woburn. Oak St. starts at five and goes up from there.

    So, either Robert really lives in Woburn but just not at 4 Oak St., or all the reporters got it wrong and incorrectly listed Woburn as his town because it’s in his whois info. Ohwell…I have four possible phone numbers for Robert in the area so I’ll start digging.

    Originally I was a fan of Robert because I was vaguely amused by the whole Dimensional Warp Generator thing. Now that I have around a thousand bounced emails sitting in my inbox he’s really pissed me off.

  • STOP SPAM IN ITS TRACKS!

    Just to let everyone know, I have absolutely nothing to do with the “STOP SPAM IN ITS TRACKS!” spam that was sent using inertramblings.com as its return address. It appears that Robert Todino (aka Bill Jones, aka Brian Appel, aka Bob White, aka John Miller) of Woburn, MA sent out the spam and forged my domain. For those of you keeping track, this is the Dimensional Warp Generator guy! So, we all can guess where he got my domain name from.

    Either way, I’ve made attempts to contact him and convey my displeasure with the situation. Perhaps he’ll contact me and apologize. Perhaps he doesn’t care. Perhaps he’ll use my domain name again, in which case I’ll be pursuing legal action. After all, I work a mere 10 minutes from his house. I’m still contemplating whether I should stop by and give him a friendly “hello” this evening.

  • Pulp Antigenre

    After reading all of the rave reviews, I decided to go see Kill Bill with my Father the other night. Absolutely amazing. Quentin has managed to accurately capture the feeling of, and make fun of, Japanese Anime and fight genres at the same time! Some of the scenes were dead on accurate to the culture and sent chills down my spine and then, two seconds later, gallons of fake blood were gushing in absolutely fake tongue-in-cheek Itchy and Scratchy fashion!

    Although Pulp Fiction was right on the edge of being a dark comedy, Kill Bill dives directly into the comedic waters because the blood and gore is so far over the edge and in your face that it’s actually amusing. No attempts have been made to pretend that Kill Bill is a serious movie…it’s simply over the top Japanese Anime acted out with humans instead of animation, complete with Matrixesque wire work and Bullet Time.

  • When You Tell One Lie

    With apologies to Paul Hatch…I always disliked this jingle.

    When you tell one lie, it leads to another
    So you tell two lies to cover each other
    Then you tell three lies and, oh brother
    You’re in trouble up to your ears!

    So you tell four lies to try to protect you
    Then you tell five lies so folks won’t suspect you
    Then you tell six lies and you’ll collect
    A life filled with worries and fears

    ‘Cause you can’t remember how many lies you’ve told
    And half the things you say aren’t true
    And sometime you’ll slip up, you’ll trip up and then
    Whatever will become of you?

    So you lie and lie without even trying
    And each lie you tell will keep multiplying
    ‘Till the whole wide world will know you’re lying
    Then you’ll be
    Suspected
    Detected
    Rejected
    Neglected
    Disliked
    And you should!
    When you lie, you’re closing the door
    On everything good
