Free For All XIII: You Be the Olympian Edition

[hairy_wrestler.jpg]

The people have demanded it, and I’m nothing if not the People’s Blogger. Here’s your FFA. It’s like a commenting Olympics.

(Oh, and that pic was over here, but I can’t figure out how they got ahold of parlie’s digital camera, nor who that man is lying on top of him. Weird, huh?)

    When I bought tickets for Buddy Guy and George Thorogood, I was praying that Buddy would get a long opening set and that George .. well… hopefully had evolved into a cool senior bluesman kind of performer. Buddy Guy was unfreakingbelieveable even in a 75 minute set. Talk about charisma. Even if it’s all a polished act, he still delivered the goods in a big way.

    Thorogood was a reptilian caricature of a rock god. The former hard working average blues/rock guy has morphed into a skeezy, winking, posing wanker. He was so skin-crawlingly nasty that I had to leave after 4 songs. The fact that Buddy Guy had to open for THAT is a sad commentary on many levels.

    BUT CLAW! Good God Christ is that the coolest thing going in this ‘burg! Amazing time and very well coordinated. The hosts, the contenders, Straight Punch To the Clawtch, and the REF! A well greased unit right there.

    It was pretty funny to see the mustachio-ed terrorists from CLAW at the Rick Olivarez Trio CD release party at the patio at C&O. Rick et al., you did an amazing job. Best of luck on the CD sales.

    And for those of you who haven’t seen the trio downstairs at C&O on Tuesday nights, you ought to make a note to do so.

    Ok, I might have been drunk last night but I swear to Gawd when I was sitting at the bar eating my Mac & Cheese that Frenchy came up to the bar and said something to his bartender about how the Outback was going to close but the owner won $100,000 on some Lottery scratch card so now it isn’t closing.

    @13: Given the rising costs of transportation and corn (the primary feed for food-bound cows in this benighted nation), it doesn’t surprise me to hear that a steakhouse such as Outback would be on the brink of closure.

    @8 Thorogood has been a poser for years, which is a shame. His first album has a smoking version of one of the greatest drinking songs ever: John Lee Hooker’s “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer.” Buddy Guy, on the other hand, probably sounds better than he ever has. The dude is 72 YEARS OLD and still bringing it! Amazing.

  35. 13 Aug 2008 at 1:44 pmlisa said:

    @31 There are many reasons I am boycotting them because of the location being China. I have many dislikes of that country ranging from the way they treat their animals to the way they treat their own people and am not going to get into a bashing session here. It is a personal decision and no, I wont be boycotting the other ones you have mentioned.

    @34 Yes, that and many other reasons. I only wish I could avoid buying things manufactured in that country as well but alas, unless I win the lottery and can afford to do so I dont see that happening =p I will also never travel to such areas like China and Japan etc - its best as I feel that since I dont agree with most of their culture I should just stay away *nod*

    :)

  37. 13 Aug 2008 at 1:51 pmStanley said:

    I think Lisa’s referring to China’s oppression of Tibet

    Right. Or any number of other objectionable things done by the government there, which is a rather untenable standard to hold for watching the Olympics. The likliest countries to host the games (including the good ol’ US of A) are precisely the same ones with the most political skeletons in their closets.

    To the extent the Olympics can shine a light on problems such as Tibet—and to be realistic, I think that effect is rather small but meaningful—the relative good far outweighs the bad. Whereas boycotting by not watching accomplishes nothing (I mean, as far as I know, Hu Jintao gives two craps that you’re not watching).

    I just don’t understand that position at all.

  38. 13 Aug 2008 at 1:54 pmStanley said:

    since I dont agree with most of their culture

    Okay, we’re cross-commenting now, which could get confusing. But really, sincerely, I don’t understand at all what this means in any practical sense. Like, you don’t agree with their way of life? Or language? Or religious practices? Or the consumption of tea? Can these things even be disagreed with?

    lisa, I’m trying to understand. Can you clarify?

    It’s a shame about not wanting to visit Japan, Hong Kong (China) and Taiwan (China); the people are kind and friendly, the sites are beautiful and the food is wonderful. I’m not defending the Chinese Communist govt, just the people and their culture; sure they have flaws, but every culture does.

  40. 13 Aug 2008 at 2:05 pmbelmont yo said:

    Psst. By the way… its a really big country that encompasses many many cultures. I know “they all look the same” or whatever, but from mhong, to laotians to fukinese and more… there are significant differences. And I bet there are many individuals there that share the same distaste as you.

    Oh and… I don’t agree with most of America’s culture. I like the myth, but the culture in practice seems severely fucked up. Whom should I boycott?

    /direct your anger at those who directly oppress you and not the scapegoats that they create.

    Actually, the boycotting should be directed towards the IOC and the companies (McDonald’s, Coca Cola, Visa, etc.) that invested millions to make olympics in China happen despite China breaking plenty of promises made to the IOC.

  49. 13 Aug 2008 at 2:51 pmlisa said:

    This is what I wanted to avoid and I think I will avoid this thread from now on.

    I understand that all countries have their ‘bad deeds’, that no one is perfect, I am not naive. I also know that a the way a country’s government acts does not mean all the people are bad, heh cause if that were the case all of the US would be bad. I have friends in the countries mentioned and know there is good there as well as bad. I choose to stay away from them because I know that if I run into bad, say for example something to do with animals being treated badly, I will get in trouble for my outspokenness. Its a personal choice to stay away from these places and while I may be missing some things I will deal with that and live vicariously through those friends who either live there or have visited. But its not for me.

    I boycotted the olympics because they were held in china not only for past deeds of the country but mainly for the current ones. Just because I am not watching does not mean I am not aware of things. It doesnt take me watching the olympics to understand the issues at hand. I am not going to make a list as I would be here for awhile and again, dont want to turn this into a session even though it seems I am being called to defend my personal choice - but besides the issue with Tibet, other things like these have heavily influenced my decision to boycott the olympics:

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-528694/Olympics-clean-Chinese-style-Inside-Beijings-shocking-death-camp-cats.html

    http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/08/12/oly.kids/index.html

    Again there are more but Im sure you can read the news as well as I.

    So at this point I feel no further need to discuss my reasons for boycotting the olympics but im sure it will continue beyond this. If you really feel the need to know more just email me.

    And now we take you back to your regular programming schedule. Enjoy.

    I’ll respect your wish to drop the issue

    I second the motion to drop, and of course respect your opinion. Im not so sure we disagree anyway.

    Me? I am boycotting the olympics from here on out because I heard about the Hungarian weightlifter’s “horrific injury” today. Ever since the Joe Theisman incident, which I watched live (with an onion on my belt), I have been phobic about these sorts of things, and if god damn NBC shows even one second of that footage I will be in therapy for months.

    I went to X lounge to try to book shows, but “the man” was not there so I ate crack and cheese. Sweet christ I love that stuff.

    Then I wandered down to the snatch where I enquired as to whether the joint had been sold, to which the bartender said awkwardly that he is not at liberty to disclose that. Fortunately, I was sitting next to the new (pending) owner, who explain a few things in general. I did not press for detail, rather just asked if he wanted me to show up tonight, which thank god he did. I have high hopes for this transition. On my way out a man bearing a striking resemblance to the Great Santini was having a rather heated and animated discussion with a woman who bore a striking resemblance to one of those compound mormon women. Imagine my surprise when my exit trajectory was bisected by a flying diet cola. Kudos to the bartender that evening who handled the ensuing hostility firmly, yet gracefully.

    Then I scoobied up to south street, and the only one there to suffer my foolishness was Taliesin, whom I am sure I annoyed with my irrational spitfire amature psychoanalysis. Oy and five were engrossed in the japanese fail show (which is awesome), so I bailed. The beer is good, and the folks friendly, but without a fat pile of villains, I really dont see the appeal of that joint.

    Then I came home and offended 8 million DMB fans on the internets.

    With the exception of flying soda drama, I give my evening a D+. And man, is my GPA slipping.

However, to my surprise, it was the best job training ever…all we did was sit around and sample 1/2 the food on the menu. Can’t beat that…I give that place a thumbs up for work environment so far…
