Do do do do Do do do do...part deuxSally: We are just going to be friends, ok?
Harry: Great! Friends! It's the best thing. You realise of course that we can never be friends.
Sally: Why not?
Harry: What I'm saying is... and this is not a come-on in
any way, shape or form, is that men and women can't be friends
because the sex part always gets in the way.
Sally: That's not true, I have a number of men friends and
there's is no sex involved.
Harry: No you don't.
Sally: Yes I do.
Harry: No you don't.
Sally: Yes I do.
Harry: You only think you do.
Sally: You're saying I'm having sex with these men without
my knowledge?
Harry: No, what I'm saying is they all want to have sex
with you.
Sally: They do not.
Harry: Do too.
Sally: They do not.
Harry: Do too.
Sally: How do you know?
Harry: Because no man can be friends with a woman he finds
attractive, he always wants to have sex with her.
Sally: So you're saying that a man can be friends with a
woman he finds unattractive.
Harry: Nuh, you pretty much wanna nail'em too.
Sally: What if they don't want to have sex with you?
Harry: Doesn't matter, because the sex thing is already
out there so the friendship is ultimately doomed and that is the end of the story.
Sally: Well I guess we're not going to be friends then.
Harry: Guess not.

After practice on Sunday a bunch of the KPeeps went to English Bay and had a little picnic. We ate, sang songs to a guitar. Wil Worked, Randy poured over the cast list going crazy with a pen. I myself had a Fatburger with cheese, chili and bacon with skinny fries and a Barq's. So, I finally sampled the much fabled Fatburger. Not bad, I'd say it's worth the 10 bucks for the meal. Personally I think Reds is better. Next time I wanna try the milk shake. At one point Randy gets off the phone and says something to the effect, "how do you get out of the friend zone?'
Category 1, became a friends first. In my history there are few times when I was friends with someone first before I wanted to hook up with them. This is usually a schoolmate, a co-worker, fellow performer etc. And out of these many of them are category 2, which is became a friend after. More than likely I became friends with someone in order to try to hook up with them at some point down the road. In either case, the friend zone for me is a black hole, where not even light can escape. I'm trying to think back and I can't remember hooking up with a long time friend, not to say that it will never happen, but history speaks for itself. I think with me my problem is I have a tendency to think myself into inaction. I always use the analogy of jumping into a pool head first . If I don't act on the initial impulse I may never get in the pool...unless someone pushes me.
My theory of getting out of the friend zone is a quantum leap. Something that changes everything. A cosmic kick in the arse or push from behind. Anything to jolt the relationship into a higher orbit. What that can be, only you can know. I obviously don't know.
BTW, on a related topic for anyone who hasn't watched 'Just Friends' I suggest you go out and rent/buy it right now.

Man on the Moon.Hey, Andy did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy are you goofing on Elvis? Hey, baby. Are we losing touch?Wow, long time no read. First before I forget Congrats to Mr. and Mss Jenilee and Jamille's parents for their 25th anniversary. That was one rockin party. Who knew that Mr. Jenilee and Jamilles dad was so funny! 3 shows and a practice in 48 hours. A little taste of what's to come in Belgium me thinks. Actually it was probably only about 40 mins of actual dancing, 4 hours of practice, and about 5 hours of waiting in those 48.
I recently purchased and watched Man on the Moon and in a word, brilliant. I'd had forgotten how good that movie was. That was Jim Carey's role of a life time. In fact what I found hilarious was my mom thought the movie stared Andy Kaufman.
-I'm like...you know he's (most likely) dead right?
-Well then who is that?
-Jim Carey...
And with that she continued to think that Jim was Andy. If any of you are not familiar with the movie it documents the life and times of Andy Kaufman of Taxi fame. I loved Taxi. I even remember the day I heard that he had died, I was riding in the car and I heard it on the radio. Without going to much into it I have to say that Kaufman was so far ahead of his time that I'm sure that he faked his own death as to give everyone else a chance to catch up. The best moment was right before the closing scene when a bald Kaufman is in the Phils looking for a miracle cure and starts laughing hysterically when he realizes that this time the joke is on him. Don't miss the special features section on the DVD. This is easily on my top 5 fav list now.
Some interesting tid bits I found on my obsessive google of the late Andy Kaufman:
-The "Friday's" producer is the person that the character of George Custanza is based on. The actor that got the water thrown on him is the dude that plays Cosmo Kramer (Michel Richards?).
-He was one of history's first Elvis impersonators. They weren't even doing it in Vegas yet.
-Some of his family and friends wouldn't be surprise if he's still alive. At his funeral half the ppl still thought it was some kind of joke and were waiting for him to make an appearance and start laughing. His body was poked more than a few times at the viewing.
-The scene at the end of the movie where Tony Clifton is performing on stage with Bob Zmuda watching from the crowd was purely fictional and never happened (unless it did...)
Speaking of Vegas, I purchased and watched seasons 1 and 2 these past two weekends. I love that show.
