BZZZT!  No, Pixel in disguise did NOT get divorced today.  And yes, Reinder 
should remove that rubber mask.  It's disturbing.

I agree, Pixel shouldn't be wearing an Acme rubber mask of Neppie.

Well, I *KNOW* it isn't me. I'll never get divorced. Or married. Especially 
married. It's the leading cause of divorces. Or was it lung cancer? I just hope 
I'll never find myself saying "Matrimony for 300, Alex". Especially if it's 
really Will Ferrell.

Tiger Woods? Nah, his marriage is rock solid.

Is it someone here? In Aglami? Can't be, it's kinda dead here. Like the economy. 
There's like nothing going on, let alone something exiting as a divorce.

Shouldn't we be saying D.I.V.O.R.C.E.? Just in case there are kids listening?

I don't get your strange movie reference!  I am way behind in the movie 
category, as far as pop culture and Will Ferrell.

Uh, no, I think it's something ELSE that's rock solid there.

It wasn't that exciting, but I was happy with the result.

I bet he has collected masks of every Aglamian. Except me. Nobody knows what I 
look like.

It's SNL and Jeopardy. You know, Saturday No Leno and the Weird Al song from the 
eighties.

He prefers to call it a nine iron.

Yes, why is that?  Everyone knows what I look like!  Are you hiding 
something?

Oh, so it wasn't a movie reference?  Good.  I don't feel so out of the loop 
then.  TV, I don't know much about these days (read: last 10 years), and I 
have a vague recollection of Weird Al now that you have brought it up.
You are getting like Rose with St. Olaf stories!  Ok, so that's the only TV 
ref I can make at this hour...kill me now.

It's better than "I have a headache".

No, of course not. I just haven't got velociraptor-imitation video's to put up. 
I only have a bunch of tents with white chocolate to keep Pixels at bay.

Depends on how you got that headache. If there was a headboard involved it's a 
small price to pay.

True story:  A headboard fell off the wall at a motel I was staying at in 
PA.  =)

Hey, I can't be a stalker if you're the exhibitionist with a Youtube channel.

Not on his Youtube channel. Not for a while now.

There's a difference between watching and being aware of. I know there's a show 
with the Kardashians and I know they're most famous for their behinds. But 
that's about all I know. I wouldn't be able to recognize them.

Show me a photo of, say Columbo, and I would recognize him.

That's hardly exhibitionistic, or exhibitionism, or...well, you get the 
idea.  Besides, I am not starring in that video.

If it were from behind you would!

I called him Shaft, but he didn't like that name.  It was already taken.

True, the *real* star is being cast by Spielberg for JP4 as we speak.

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure there's plenty of young folk that haven't got a clue who 
we're talking about, unless they're addicted to TV-Land or something. And I'm 
not just talking about kids of veloceraptor-imitating age.

Besides, he's a golfer and by no means a private dick.

Hmmm, reminds me of a post on itmademyday.com.

I've actually amazed little kids by knowing Pokémon existed and knew a few 
names. Somebody old that knows about this stuff? Freaky!

It in fact IS an excuse, check with the Journal of Abnormal Psychology.

The way you describe your age makes me think you are as old as Methuselah!

Well, it isn't a lapse of reason if there wasn't any reason to begin with.

Spooky, Pokémon are everywhere. They've been around for almost 15 agonizing years.

I've got grey hair. White even. I can remember the seventies, but not the 
sixties. So according to Grace Slick I must have been around then too. I'm still 
not sure. All my memories of the fifties have two red haired guys, their none 
too smart friend and a guy in a leather jacket with things called "chicks" under 
each arm.

I *really* can't believe it has been that long.  I remember taking my 
daughter to Wizards of the Coast ALL the time, but I refuse to believe it 
was that long ago!  O.O
This means I am old.

Well, if I were Sherlock Holmes I STILL couldn't glean anything from that.
You can remember the 70s - truth
You can't remember the 60s - truth, but doesn't mean you weren't there.  Of 
course, I think not remembering the 60s was more an American thing?  I 
dunno, I wasn't there.  =)
You remember the 50s - from Happy Days???

Don't worry. I'd have to be at least this competent (/me makes hand gesture) to 
enter. Besides, I'd spend half the time shouting "objection".

I just realized I didn't say "competence hearing"  - that is hilarious.

You're one of the lucky ones. With you, eyesight is the first to go.

I've had gray hairs since I was 16 though. And I wasn't even the grayest Danny 
in school.

What!?  Are you saying I have gray hair and just don't see it?

My nephew has gray hair and he is 13.  It's so strange.  He's blonde so it 
doesn't really show though.

I'd see myself more as the man who fell to earth (it would explain my TV 
habits). But I guess I look more like a Klingon. A gray and pale one.
