― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:18 (eighteen years ago) link

what's your second airport?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:18 (eighteen years ago) link

there's another airport thread on ILE.

I don't even know where Calgary is!

i could get TIME CANADA with kanye west on the cover ("hip hop's class act")

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:19 (eighteen years ago) link

oh that J-AN VF looks thick and JUICY!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

oh no, I wasn't suggesting that this thread isn't valid, just noting the confluence.

xp get Wired. Wired's the quintessential airport magazine.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

eww!! i don't think i've ever bought an issue of wired!!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

I LIKE wired!

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

really? is it good? i guess i've read some wired articles online... but BUYING a magazine about the internet always seems like a waste of money!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:22 (eighteen years ago) link

it's not about the internet, it's about science! and they have one or two really good writers (and some terrible ones).

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

can i buy an issue of mondo 2000 instead?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

I mean, it IS kind of embarassing, but I enjoy it.

xp yes

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

well i'll totally buy it if the VF isn't there. also the entertainment weekly this week looks boring!! it's like a summer wrap-up issue, fuck that, i don't wanna read past tense versions of the articles they've been writing since may!!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:25 (eighteen years ago) link

what about a foreign newspaper?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

or a good mystery?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Toblerone?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Remember s1ocki, it's the end of winter down there. But don't be surprised to see lots of long stockinged legs even with the winter coats.

R.U. Sirius is podcasting now

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:37 (eighteen years ago) link

I misread the thread title as I AM AN AIRPORT, so I was hoping it would be full of things like I AM AN AIRPORT COME AND LOOK AT TEH AIRPLANES TALKING OFF FROM ME.

― DV (dirtyvicar), Thursday, 25 August 2005 21:44 (eighteen years ago) link

It could well have been a lost Jonathan Richman song- the followup to "Rockin' Shopping Center" and the precursor to "I'm A Little Airplane."

― k/l (Ken L), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:10 (eighteen years ago) link

slocki, how is hte shoulder? Did it survive the 1st leg of the journey?

― Wiggy (Wiggy), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Calgary = Canadian Cowboyland. (Well, a lot of cities are Canadian Cowboyland, but Calgary likes to think of itself as the capital of it. Also, ask LeCoq about how cool Calgary is.. hahahah)

― donut gon' nut (donut), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:36 (eighteen years ago) link

the shoulder is... ok! i mean still spasming a bit but definitely definitely better than yesterday (going to bed last night w/horrible shoulder & everything else = the :(ness)

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:44 (eighteen years ago) link

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:44 (eighteen years ago) link

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:45 (eighteen years ago) link

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:45 (eighteen years ago) link

― Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:50 (eighteen years ago) link

haha no shit!! what's your deal tiffwise?

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 25 August 2005 23:56 (eighteen years ago) link

my new job (just started last week!) is with a big radio company and we're working on doing some live recordings at you-know-where, and they have lots of 'secret shows' there during TIFF and we might record some. yee-ha! and yeah, they mentioned your posse was there and i thought "hey! i know one of those guys!" and then realized, no, i don't, i only exist on a messageboard with one of those guys! but would be cool to meet you...

― Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Friday, 26 August 2005 00:10 (eighteen years ago) link

the weirdest airport i was in was vientiane, laos. it was an 'international airport' and all that, but holy smokes it was like super lo-fi. and when i arrived there to get my early morning flight the airport wasn't even OPEN yet, and we had to wait for some guy to let the 20 or so of us waiting in! no magazines there, that's for sure! i was lucky to get a bottle of water!

― Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Friday, 26 August 2005 00:36 (eighteen years ago) link

It’s a good tequila and I think you deserve it. Try not to show up in a viral video later.

I was desperate enough to hear a follow up to 1984 that I gave 5150 another chance last weekend after nearly 30 years of abstinance. Starting with "Dreams", i made it as far as "reach for the golden ring" on my first attempt before switching it off.

The second time through was unbearably sad, though. It's the optimism for a future that never materialized, where you know you're watching a tragedy but the actors still think it's another kind of play. Part of it is def that there's a certain brand of corporate modernism preserved in amber, like they've ditched the laser grid of 1984, put on a blazer and stepped into the Frasurbane Mcdonalds. But also the energy of a new creative partnership that seems full of promise but already peaked.

Oh, Sammmy, I'd love a tequila TY for offering.
