I just remembered something else about Jeff Bridges, LOL. I can't remember if we posted about this already or not. Chow once spent a year in Santa Barbara for work, and we would trade off visiting each other on the weekends. Anyway, one time the college there was going to have a Q&A with Jeff Bridges. We thought, Oh cool, let's go do that. It was only ten bucks or something. Sweet.

Well, we get there and oh, guess what, he's sold out, the only thing left available is the "UFO/space alien" guy. *sigh* Okay, we're already here, it might be interesting, we'll do that.

He starts out and mostly he's talking about people having been implanted with alien tracking devices. Then he starts showing footage of "actual cases." LOL. We're watching these surgeries of removing implants and then all of a sudden, the camera shot gets blurry or the "doctor" inconveniently moves in front of the camera, blocking our vision. Good god. At this point, Chow and I are looking at each other and resisting rolling our eyes.

To top it all off, at the end of the "presentation," some shill in the audience stands up and cries something like, "FRAUD!" There was a big to-do and then they shuffled him out of there. We're convinced he was part of the act so the presenter could look more authentic while he explained away the accusations. Chow and I went home grumbling.

We had foolishly assumed that since it was a reputable college, it would be something on the up-and-up. But I guess they were just renting it out like anyone else, and they probably have the ol' "this does not reflect our viewpoint" small-print stuff. Oh well, I guess in the end we got our money's worth?

Anyway, love Jeff Bridges.

Good grief, what's with all the whining here lately?

I think we may need to take up a collection for some good cheese.

Happy Philstivus News:

Strippermobile' delivers Christmas donations

LAS VEGAS – The "strippermobile" has made another run in Las Vegas, this time with properly dressed Santa's helpers riding for a good cause.

A year after agreeing to stop a promotion that involved hauling bikini-clad exotic dancers in a truck with clear plastic sides, a company that owns several Las Vegas strip clubs used the vehicle to help deliver Christmas donations to a local charity.
