Why are we still using stoves, for that matter.  Or feeding ourselves.  Those instant meals and sex slave robotic housewives don't make themselves!

I don't know if it's a symptom or cause.  I just wanted to post a Ghostdog video 'cause he's so awesome.

Jim Jarmusch <3 <3 <3
Kavanaugh <3 <3 <3

Quote
Jarmusch is the founder of The Sons of Lee Marvin, a humorous 'semi-secret society'. Members of the society reportedly include musician Tom Waits and actor John Lurie, both of whom have worked with Jarmusch on several occasions. Richard Bose, Nick Cave, Thurston Moore, Iggy Pop (who has also worked with Jarmusch), Josh Brolin and Neil Young are also rumored to be members. The entry criterion for the club is that the person must have some physical resemblance or plausibly look like a son of the actor Lee Marvin — as such, women are not allowed to join. Most current members also share what seems to be a beat mentality in that they represent and express the lives of the down and out.

The club supposedly meets occasionally to watch Lee Marvin movies together. Its members perpetuate the joke in the media.

    "I'm not at liberty to divulge information about the organization, other than to tell you that it does exist. I can identify three other members of the organization: Tom Waits, John Lurie, and Richard Bose. You have to have a facial structure such that you could be related to, or be a son of, Lee Marvin. There are no women, obviously, in the organization. We have communiques and secret meetings. Other than that, I can't talk about it."

        —Jim Jarmusch: Interview: Vol. XIX - No. 11, 1989: pp 146-150.

The real son of Lee Marvin is said to have objected to the existence of the organization when he encountered Waits in a bar.

DAMN SCIENTISTS :maf

dood why do you not use one of those clothes steamer thingies?

I let the cleaners do my ironing - but thats all they do there - hang it up and steam gun it....

Scientists have answered the call - its marketing that has failed you.

any recommended brands?

looks pretty good as far as irons go

but I'm wondering if instead of upgrading my cheapo iron I should go all out and get a steamer!

Looks awesome, but $170? On a steamer?!

On the other hand, I tend to simply not wear clothes that need ironing because I can only be assed to iron like once every three months.
