FrankFiles 1.8


Hello boys and girls and welcome once again to the FrankFiles.

What do you know, an article in Newsweek about the Atkins diet. It states, in a nutshell that if you eat right, exercise, and watch your calories you will loose weight. The Atkins diet leaves you craving sugar, bread and other carbs. That means you will eventually cheat.
What did I say a couple of weeks ago? Live healthy.
Also keep in mind that no one can escape genetics.(We blame all our other problems on our parents why not that too?)

Another sign of the apocalypse:
Michael Jackson broke and in jail.
This story represents so many things that I can’t discuss them all without writing a novel about it.
Dear Michael,
You are a twisted freak.
The fact that the authorities found a trapdoor with a secret room, where you and your young guests would “play secret games”, is telling enough.
Actually if this were the case with any one else, one would assume guilt, but because it is, you, Jacko, most people might write it off as an eccentricity.
Not me. I think you are a twisted freak.
You seek out young boys in broken and poor homes because you know that they are more likely to be payed off.
Sick.
I hope they lock you up and throw away the key.
Just because you were robbed of your childhood and refuse to grow up and mature like a normal human being doesn’t mean you are entitled to rob other children of their innocence.
This whole thing is made all the more tragic because when I hear and read that you don’t understand “why they are doing this” to you, I actually believe that you really do not know.
I hope they put you away forever.
Love Frank
On to another topic.

NFL, thoughts? -I don’t want to talk about it.

Without going off too much on this fine Thanksgiving eve.....
A question to Conservatives.
Do you think that the lawsuit Gray Davis was filing against certain power providers that gouged California during the Energy Crisis will be followed up on by our new Governor? Or will we never hear about it again? Just wondering.
And....
“The purpose of guerrilla warfare, the Brazilian guerrilla leader Carlos Marighella once explained, is to force the occupying army to militarize it’s presence, to engage in reprisals and roundups, to show force, to patrol in tanks. These measures alienate the population and generate sympathy among the population for the guerrillas. In recent days, American forces have been dropping bombs taking prisoners and generally showing more force. In other words, the strategy -the guerrillas’ strategy, that is- might be working.”
Fareed Zakaria

Kids, this is a quagmire from which we might not be fully disengaged for a long long time.
I’m going to say it again.
Bring those poor bastards the hell home for cryin’ out loud. Or at least find Saddam, then get the hell out of there.
I sure am glad I’m not in the military. I would not be a happy camper. In hindsight (bare in mind that I did originally buy in to Bush’s reasons for going to war, ) the whole thing has turned out to be one gigantic and expensive mistake. Cut your losses Bush administration soon, if not now.

Ok, enough on politics.

Words to live by, by me:
Love yourself, just don’t be in love with yourself.
Words to live by, from a bumper sticker:
Just because you have one, doesn’t mean you have to be one.

Book I’m reading: ‘Confessions of a Dangerous mind’ by Chuck Barris, also a movie.
Thoughts: Ex-ellent.
Movie recently seen: ‘Goldmember’
Thoughts: Not as good as the second one which was better then the first one.
Oh, yeah, Gordon Sumner, AKA Sting.
NTL, Last week (did what I write make any sense? I hope so.)
Outlaw Josey Whales (Clint)

This week (good luck)
“Big brother is not watching us, we are watching it. Of our own free will!”
You most likely have not seen this one but it’s a great line nonetheless. It refers to TV.
Happy Thanksgiving!

FrankFiles1.7

Hi again.
The FrankFiles TM have begun a great journey. A journey onto the Internet. May the way be free from porn and viri.

FrankFiles are early this week because I will not be at home on friday. I will instead be in Berkeley playing records on an internet radio show. 11am - 1pm. It is club246.com or check out PixelBiscuit. So check me out!!

You know the end of the world is coming when:

The best rapper is white.
The biggest player in the NBA is chinese.
The best golfer is black.
The cincinnatti bangels are leading their devision.
The KKK are boycotting NASCAR.
Playboy has a spread called "The Women of WalMart".(by the way has anyone ever walked into a WalMart and said WOW!! She ougtha be in Playboy! Just wondering.)
The Terminator is ....awe never mind.

I just saw a bumper sticker that made me laugh out loud in my truck.

"Sorry I missed church but I've been busy practicing witchcraft and becoming a lesbian."

Wacko Jacko. Micheal Jackson is in trouble again. Today on the Jim Rome show, Jim said: "How does a young African American male grow up to be a middle aged white woman?"

Another radio personality said:
"Anyone who is forty and calls their ranch the Neverland Ranch has issues. Can you imagine Hoss from Bonanza calling his ranch the Neverland Ranch?" There is something to that.

A study was released recently that shows young children were more upset by violent news brodcasts then violent TV dramas. Hmmmm.

Al Franken told Newsweek:
"Republicans always say, 'How dare Susan Sarandon and Martin Sheen get involved in politics!'" ..."Then Arnold showed up and it was 'Oooh! Arnolds's running! Oooh!the Terminator!Well, F**k you!"
Yes indeed Al, yes indeed.

Buy the way, the tripling of the car tax that was just repealed. It was put into place by Pete Wilson.
...and on the other hand,
Arnold will be donating his $185,000 yearly salery to help pay off the states deficit.
'Atta boy big fella. Good start.

Fareed Zakaria, an expert on the middle east and a columnist for newsweek says "Sometimes I think that President Bush's critics neet to put up a sign somehwere in their rooms that reads: 'Some things are true even if George W. Bush believes them.'" A visceral dislike for the president is boxing many otherwise sensible people into a corner because they connot bring thenselves to agree with anything he says. How else to explain the churlish reaction among so many Democrats, Europeans, and intellectuals ... to a speech on democracy in the Middle East- as a speech it stands as one of the most intelligent and eloquent statements by a president in recent memory.... If it marks a real shift in strategy, it will go down in history as Bush's most important speech"

Think people, think for yourselves. Try to be a little bit objective.

Said Bush: "Sixty years of Western nations' excusing and accommodating the lack of freedom in the Middle East did nothing to make us safe,..."
Wow.
He actually said "accommodating", which we have been.
Question:
Is this election year bullshit, or a real change in attitude?
Also there was a cold war going on during most of that sixty years. The middle east was not the only region to suffer it's effects.

Football: (I'm heading it up that way so that those of you who don't give a rats ass about football can skip over this part, cuz it will be in here every week. I just can't help it, sorry.)
Niners Niners Niners Niners Niners! Coming up: Greenbay, Cinci.,Baltimore, Philly., all on the road. Brrrrrrrrr.
Defense: "Swarming" (John Madden) "Smothering" (Larry Beil) all against "A very good four and six team (John Madden again) Bring it on, Brett Larve!

There are a record breaking quarter of a BILLION copies of Harry Potter books in print.

Question: Gordon Sumner AKA, .......? Fill in the blank.

Ok I'm done.

NTL Last week, Braveheart.

This week: Guy: "...I aim to kill him."
Other guy: "Thats too bad."
Guy: "A mans got to make a livin'."
Other guy: "Dying aint much of a livin'."

Bye till next time and feel free to tell me off or unsubscribe if you think I'm full of balony/ Balogna.
Frank

FrankFiles1.6 (six really, oh my!)

I would like to announce a free gift to all of my loyal frank file
recipients. Throw away Atkins. Trash McDougal. Get rid of your trendy diets
cuz I am announcing my frank file diet and you don't have to buy my book to
get this state of the art dieting information.
Ready?
Do you have your crayons grasped firmly in your peanut butter and jelly
stained fingers?
OK here goes.
Burn more calories then you consume.
Amazing.
Also, anyone saying that carbohydrates make you fat. They are wrong. Also
anyone saying that protein makes you fat, they are wrong. If anyone tells
you otherwise, you need just say "You are sorrowfully missinformed my good
man, may I presume to correct you?"

Calories make you fat. End of story.
Eat right, exercise more. That's all.

Actually carbohydrates and proteins are essentiial building blocks for
energy. Do not cut one or both of them out of your diet.

Also vitamins do not give you energy. That is a common misconception.
Simple and complex sugars give you energy.

Also again: meat has absolutely no dietary fiber in it. I bet you didn,t
know that, did you?

You're welcome.

Think on this:

We can pay around five dollars a gallon for a product that can be had
absolutely free and is available everywhere. It is also safer here than in
any other country, yet we choose to pay money for it.

We bitch and moan when gas goes over two dollars a gallon, while we(some
of us) drive vehicles that get less then ten miles to the gallon. We even
fight wars to ensure that our supply of ..... well never mind about that
for right now.

What is this mystery substance? Water.
Just a thought.

Monday night football. Steelers Niners. Yeah!
Jamie Winbourn out for the season.
What was the difference between last years defense (last in the league in
third down conversions) and this years defense (one of the most dominant)?

Jamie Winbourn.
Out for the season.

The dynamic trio of Ulbrick, Winbourn, and Peterson is no more. Sigh.

Last weeks NTL: ? Why, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, of course. Appearing
in that movie were none other then:

Jenifer Jason Liegh
Phoebe Kates
Judge Reinhold
Sean Penn

But you knew that already. How about,

Nicolas Cage
Forest Whittaker
Eric Stoltz

Watch it again, dude.

This week NTL:
"Every man dies, but not every man truly lives."

Bye bye,
Frank

FrankFiles1.5

I hope all of ya'll are getting as much fun from this weekly writing
assignment as I, so here goes.

Recently Britney Spears complained about her appearance on the cover of a
magazine saying that she was tricked into having her picture taken with no
pants on.

She also told the magazine in her interview that her parents often walked
around naked. Then stated that her childhood was none of any one's business.

Britney dear, I sure hope you stop with the coke and the alcohol soon,
because you clearly don't have many braincells to spare.

Eighty seven billion to both destroy and build Iraq. Makes sense to me.
Bring those poor bastards the hell home for crying out loud!

My pet fish goldy is very mellow. He just kind of hangs out in the tank.
Lately he has been sleeping upside down a-lot.

Uh oh. The forty niners have a kicker, a healthy offensive line, two good
quarterbacks, and a bye week. Is it too early to say 'momentum into the
post season', yet? Yes.

The porn industry is going to do a reality show. I wonder how that is any
different then the networks doing reality shows. I guess the networks would
never stoop so low as to humili humilia degrade people. They have
principals. Morals. Not like those dirtbags in porn. Not to mention the
"actors" are much better.

It bothers me when I see rich black althletes, well, any athlete for that
matter, get into trouble then think they can get out of it by throwing lots
of money at it. Well I guess money IS the solution to all of life's
problems, right?

Alright kiddies last weeks N.T.L. Rutger Hauer as Roy Batty in Blade
Runner. Perhaps I overstated when I said one of the most sympathetic, but
clearly one of the coolest villains in movie history.
Other cool lines by old Roy the Replicant.
"Fiery the angels fell
deep thunder rolled around their shores
burning with the fires of orc."

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships off the
shoulder of Orion. I've watched seabeams glitter in the dark near the
Tanhouser gates. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in
rain....time to die."

and that most famous of lines:
"I want more life, fucker." Awesome!

This weeks NTL
"Listen, buddy, if you don't shut up I'm going to kick one hundred percent
of your ass!!"

Cheers and thank you for encouraging my behavior,
Frank
P.S.
Words to live by, by me:
Sceptical but never synical
Opinionated but never judgemental

Also if you think anyone you know might enjoy these little anectotes feel
free to send me their email address or forward them. There are lots of
people who's email address I don't have.

Also stay tuned for my website, frankskye.com
