I've been noticing an odd trend in the television censorship of movies. They'll edit a movie for adult content to show it on Comedy Central or TBS, and they'll overdub little substitutes for cursing; "spit", "fudge", etc. But then sometimes they thing they substitute ends up being more provocative than their edit! Take this scene from "The Breakfast Club".
Hot Bad Boy Judd Nelson is trying to get a rise out of Athletic Boy Toy Emilio Estevez, over Demure Teen Queen Molly Ringwald: "Come on Sporto, level with me. Do you slip her the hot beef injection? "
Ew! No question, Ew. But the cable edit I saw the other day made it even
ewwwier! Observe:
"Come on Sporto, level with me. Do you slip her the hot beef inFECTION?"
In what universe is hot beef INFECTION better than hot beef injection? The one is just a crude nickname for the male member, the other is..... Actually I don't even want to speculate, come to think of it. Best you don't either, probably.
Anyway. That's weird.
Paul joined the gym I've been going to and we've been working out together. I think I keep overdoing it though. I'm in charge of the workout routines because if left to his own devices Paul will just wander aimlessly about the facility, maybe wind up doing 2 mph on a zero-incline treadmill watching "Deep Space Nine" on his video ipod.
I kid. We heart fitness.
Start rehearsing at Woolly in a couple weeks, that will be good. Looking forward to getting back to work.

Working out while married ... I just had my first year anniversary and the gift of a lifetime gym membership from my husband has made going to the gym awesome because I can just get on that elliptical and give my husband the evil eye for giving me such a thoughtless and unromantic gift. And then work out like mad and work off all the madness. (I'm bitter.) But congrats on the marriage!
