Winehouse and TJD

There are a lot of great things to say about Amy Winehouse, not the least of which being Massive's recommendation of her to me while I was in the throes of discovering her.

As a recording and production nerd, I have to state my astonishment at the attention to detail. Her album is steeped traditional R&B tonality.

Absolutely. Amy's great. So is Joss Stone. Lily Allen, meh. Her first song didn't do much for me. I have to hear more from her to really decide.

I'm not a fan of Joss Stone and it's difficult for me to say why. I'll have to give it some thought.

She oversings and has no soul?

That's probably got something to do with it. The blandness of her songs too I think.

I don't like the fact that she did one of those Legends shows and was singing with someone Debbie Harry maybe? And she tried to sing over her on her own song! I was like "who the fuck tries to sing over Debbie Harry? Ludicrous!"

the ULTIMATE Catch-22 Scenario and basically outed the entire shop.

The question I posed was: You're in a room with three doors. The middle down leads to freedom, but it's locked. Behind the other two doors are two people, each one with an identical key to open the third. The thing is though, you have to sleep with one of them in order to get the key and go out the third door to freedom.

Option #1: Buck Angel
Option #2: A really hot, passable M2F tranny, who's still got the twiggle and giggleberries.

Pop quiz hotshot! Who do you choose?

The conclusion that everyone drew was that this was the gay version of Schrödinger's Cat. Schrödinger's Tranny, if you will. If you sleep with #1, who looks like a dude, and who has more testosterone than most of the guys here, then is that any less gay than sleeping with #2 who looks exactly like a woman, but is packing the stun-gun?

And before ANY of you jump to judge me on how I could even devise such a truly awful test, please realize that I've been on mandatory undrunkenness for the past three weeks.

[edit]And for the record, I was the only person who got the answer right... though admittedly I knew the answer beforehand having made the test up.[/edit]

Since, by regards, toy initiated into this conundrum the Schrodinger's cat theory, the problem must be taken thus.

As we don't know which alternate door holds the slightly more favorable outcome, it is impossible to quantify a "Sophie's Choice" sort of attitude out of this. One has a 1:2 chance of picking either, and neither, obviously, is prefereable. But since this is being framed in a situation where each choice excludes the other, I choose the locked door. I don't know it's locked, but I'm not having sex with butts. However, choosing this locked door also eliminates all other options as the cat theory means that there are only two options. These two options are to either open the locked door or to not. Everything else doesn't exist. So the dillema is only hypothetical: there is no escape to this proposed room: all doors are locked.

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?

The solution I came up with is that you open both unlocked doors, have the trannies go at it with each other and steal one of the keys while they're getting it on.

Everyone else in the shop said they'd get oral from the hot M2F tranny... which by rights, makes them gay.

When in the presence of drag queens, it's required to overdo everything.

They don't call me "Fernando" because my Abba routine is half-assed.

I'm still not sure which of Agent Smith, General Zod or Charlie Burns looked the most disturbing in Drag.
