Passion = Truth? How Jeffrey James Francis Ircink Sees The World? I love when people are passionate about something. That surging of emotion is the one honest measure of what truth is. It's a truthful display of how a person really feels about something or someone at that particular moment. That passion IS truth.

Miss Allerdyce from "Burnt Offerings".




This movie frightened the shit out of me when I was growing up. And it was this scene in particular that still spooks me. The movie plot is confusing (look it up on IMDB) but I'll tell you this - the house this family is temporarily staying in "rebuilds" itself each summer by feeding on the lives of the family/caretakers. In this clip (which is near the end), Oliver Reed finds out that his wife has "transformed" into the old lady he thought his wife was looking after. Was there ever an old lady? It's confusing...just watch it.

(You're going to want to mute the jukebox at the very top of the blog before you watch any of these videos.) And no, Oliver Reed is not overacting at the end. His horrific screams are justified. Rent the movie. And scream yourself.

Favre's return to Lambeau...as a Viking. 2 quotes.

Much is being said about Brett Favre's return to Green Bay's Lambeau Field this Sunday as the Minnesota Vikings clash with the Green Bay Packers in their 2nd meeting of the season (MN won the first game).

Some say cheer Favre. Others say boo Favre. Some say be silent. Even the mayor of Green Bay has gotten in on the action, asking fans to email him tasteful ways to welcome Brett back to Green Bay for his first visit since his "divorce" from the Packers after the 2007 NFL season. I emailed the mayor and told him to do nothing - just let the game be played. All the hub-bub concerning Brett's return will play itself out - no need to add fuel to the fire. Wasn't it the Packer organization that breathed a sigh of relief once they traded Brett to the Jets last year? No more media circus? Get on with their season? They why is a politician stoking the flames by taking fan requests? Dumb question, I know - and an even dumber idea, Mayor.

The most intelligent article I've read detailing how fans should react when Favre strolls onto Lambeau Field Sunday as the "enemy" (after 16 years with the Packers) comes from Gary Howard's "Cheer first, Jeer later" (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, 10-27-09). YOU are a classy man, Mr. Howard.

Being that I and my brother and mother are staunch Favre supporters (dad's ambivalent), we obviously want Minnesota to kick the shit out of the Packers. But here are two of my favorite quotes regarding Brett's playing for the Vikings this season - the Packer's most hated rival:

No. 1 = Cool quote:
"Seeing Brett in purple, when I first saw it I kind of threw up in my mouth...When that jersey comes off and he decides to retire, we'll bring him back home." - Ex-Packer Defensive tackle Santana Dotson (above), Super Bowl XXXI winner with Brett on the 1996 team, regarding Favre playing with the Minnesota Vikings

No. 2 = Dumb fuck quote:
"I'm still green and gold all the way. I hate Minnesota...It didn't bother me, him (Favre) with the Jets. But Minnesota I know personally I could never do it. I would just retire." - Ex-Packer Tight End Mark Chmura, Super Bowl XXXI winner

Well, you basically DID retire, Chewie, 'cause no one wanted your happily married-w/children- skank-ass after the Packers released you following those charges of inappropriate contact with a minor in a hot tub in Wisconsin, dipshit. You were good with the Pack, but no one cares if you'd retire or not, given the opportunity. You fucked yourself, asshole.

"Billy Balfoor" makes semi's at Short & Sweet/Sydney 2010!

I've had some good luck at Short & Sweet - Australia, dubbed "the biggest little play festival in the world". "The Bed" - semi's in Sydney 2009, "Pass the Salt, Please." - semi's both in Brisbane and Sydney 2009, and "Billy Balfoor Wants An Apology" - Brisbane 2009.


300 shorts were shortlisted (semi's) out of 1026 entries. 160 are chosen to run over a month or so.

I understand I haven't been at this long, but once - just once - one of my shorts HAS to somehow squeak in the finals. Maybe this time around...

Vikings lose to Steelers. Vikes 6-1.

Vikes had their chances. Way too many dumb penalties. What are the odds that a ball gets stripped from Favre and is recovered by a lineman who runs it in for a TD? THEN, Chester Taylor misses a ball he should've caught and THAT ball bounces into the hands of a Steeler who runs that one in for a TD? GOD DAMMIT! No pictures from the game 'cause when we lose I get pissy for 3 days.

(Not meaning to be a complainer 'cause every team gets bad calls, but the ref who called tripping on the Vikes player...he needs to read his ref manual again. That call negated a Viking TD and might've have been a momentum changer. Blatantly bad call.)

Taylor Mills, the Ircink bros. and Brian Wilson in concert.

You would think I wasn't capable of using a camera. Dammit! Had it set to "museum" in the theater so it wouldn't flash and didn't reset it afterwards. Taylor said the shot looked good so I never double-checked it. I hate her now. Haha. Back-up singer Tay and I became FB friends and I got to meet her in Manhattan Beach earlier this year when I lived in Cali, so we - chit chat, you know. Jas and I have past dealings with the extended Beach Boys family through the Carl Wilson Cancer Foundation so we were pretty pumped to see Brian again - and Taylor.

Picked up Taylor's new album, "Under the Surface" More on this after I've listened to it a few more times. But I enjoyed it thoroughly. She's got a lulling, beautiful voice. Click on READ MORE! for a couple more shots of the evening.

A perfect fall day in the Midwest.

Took off Monday for Iowa for a couple days to catch-up with some theater people. Nice visit. Typically, when I lived in Cali, I'd come home in May for three weeks and fish for a week, then visit people in Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois. Lots of running around. Not any more. Now that I'm back in WI, I'll take my time visiting certain people. Quality versus quantity.

Anyway, here are a few shots of the ride from Iowa to Wisconsin - took the northern route home, up through Dubuque and into WI via Madison. That's Delafield, WI above. The better route by far (as opposed to Rockford, through the Quad Cities on Hwy 80 to Iowa City and then Cedar Rapids). Click on READ MORE! for a few more shots.

Vikings beat Ravens, 33-31. Choked the Ravens, "3-in-a-row". Vikes 6-0.

Gettin' too old for this shit. Down-to-the-wire games. My brother and I were collectively hyperventilating the last 5 minutes. Favre was on fire with 3 TDs and a 58-yard pass to set up the go-ahead field goal that eventually won the game.

Vikings offense played great. Defense played a great first half - then completely dismantled in the 2nd half...particularly the 4th quarter. Call it what you will - injuries in the Viking D, prevent defense, soft coverage. Whatever...the Ravens missed a FG with 2 seconds left on the clock that could've won the game for them. Too bad. Vikings need to finish games. If they're having trouble putting away opponents, then they need to play every minute as if it's a 2-minute drill.

NEXT WEEK: Vikings (6-0) @ Steelers (4-2).

Jim & Jeff's 1,099.5 mile adventure!

(photo by Craig Sanford)

I met up with my close college buddy, Jim Sickels, and his family on a slightly overcast but beautiful fall Wisconsin day as his oldest daughter, Morgan, competed in the Classic 8 Conference Championship cross-country meet in Hartland, WI (I forgot my camera). Morgan placed 5th (she was lauded to finish first or second but was sick) and is headed to sectionals. She's a talented runner (top-ranked in the nation) and is contemplating several offers to run in college.

After the race, Jim and I retired to the Delafield Brewhaus to discuss one of the many adventures we plan to go on since my moving back to Wisconsin. Jim's an avid outdoorsman and hunter (like my family) and the 11+ years (not counting the 5 1/2 years I was in IA before CA) I've been away haven't afforded us much time to enjoy the outdoors together.

Click on READ MORE! if you're curious to find out what we're up to. If not, enjoy the above picture of a scenic Wisconsin vista north of Rice Lake.

Jim and I are tackling the 1,099.5 miles of Wisconsin's Ice Age Trail. We'll take it in segments (no particular order), a weekend here and there over the next 3 years or so. We've talked about this for a few years - and we're gonna make it happen.

"More than 12,000 years ago, an immense flow of glacial ice sculpted a landscape of remarkable beauty across Wisconsin. As the colossal glacier retreated, it left behind a variety of unique landscape features. These Ice Age remnants are now considered among the world's finest examples of how continental glaciation sculpts our planet. The Ice Age National Scenic Trail is a thousand-mile footpath — entirely within Wisconsin — that highlights these Ice Age landscape features while providing access to some of the state's most beautiful natural areas." (Ice Age Trail Alliance website)

The Ice Age Trail is a designated National Scenic Trail in the United States that will run some 1,200 miles through the state of Wisconsin once completed. As of 2008, the trail is 1,099.5 miles long with 467 miles being traditional hiking paths, 103.2 miles being multi-use trails, and 529.3 miles being connecting roads and sidewalks. The trail wanders through 30 of Wisconsin's 72 counties, following the southernmost location of the last continental glaciation. The first person to backpack the entire length of the Ice Age Trail was 20 year old James J. Staudacher of Shorewood, Wisconsin during the summer of 1979.

We plan to begin hiking in December (we think). Stay tuned for a new blog tracking our progress and adventures. For more information, go to Wisconsin's Ice Age Trail on Wikipedia or check out the Ice Age Trail Alliance website.

Favre bashers having a change of heart?

I've blogged at length about the biased, unobjective (or is it nonobjective?) scrutiny the media (and fans) have shown Brett Favre since I began this blog in 2007 - look up "sports commentators", "sports columnists", "idiots", "hacks", "Jay Glazer", "Kevin Hench", "Mark Kriegel", "Adam Schein", "Allen Barra" or "FoxSports.com" on the right panel under BLOG TOPICS.

Now that the Minnesota Vikings are sitting at 5-0, some of the assholes I hate are starting to come around to my way of thinking. I know it's early in the season and anything can happen. But the fact that, for example, Kevin "Hatchet-job-haircut" Hench of FoxSports.com is rethinking his stance on Favre makes me question his credibility after he's torn Favre a new asshole for years. No - I've question his and other's credibility before. Leery...leery is a bette word.


"Hey look, ESPN's Adam Schefter...it's a schism in the Viking's locker room!"

Here's what Henchie said after the Vikings beat the Packers in Week 4: "When you assess Brett Favre's 24-for-31, 271-yard, 3-TD, 135.3 QB rating vivisection of the Packers, the numbers alone don't tell the whole story...Favre was so precise in dismantling his former team it almost didn't matter if his receivers got any separation at all. If he doesn't do something worth making fun of in the next couple of weeks this segment is going on hiatus."

I, for one, will not jump on the "Hench loves Favre" bandwagon because the minute Brett and/or the Vikings screw up, Hench will renege on his Favre lovefest comments and tear him a third asshole - that's what the media does. They have no allegiances to teams that they can admit to publicly - they're SUPPOSED to be objective. Unless it concerns Brett Favre. However, at least Henchie admits that he was premature in judging Favre - through 5 games into the season

As I've mentioned before, even if the Vikings go the Super Bowl and lose, Favre will be vilified by the press for being an old, over-the-hill, egomaniacal waffler. And if the Vikings go to the SB and win it - the media and Favre naysayers around the world will say 1) it was everyone on the team that contributed to the win BUT Favre, or 2) good - now that Favre has another SB ring maybe he'll finally retire and disappear. It's the fight Brett will never win (when you see groups of words highlighted, it's a link - click on it).

Like I said, it's a 16-game season. I'm simply going to continue in my enjoyment of watching the "Silver Fox" (as Favre's been dubbed by "the beast", Viking DE Jared Allen) play his 19th NFL season. And hope he continues to have fun.

Driving from Denver to the Wisconsin border sucks.



Watch this video. What you're seeing is, in a nutshell, what the drive from Denver to the Wisconsin border looked like.

Were you bored to death? So were we. My brother arrived in Los Angeles to accompany me on my move back to Wisconsin. After eventful visits with the Nowak clan in Santa Barbara, Donovan & Maria and family in Tujunga (my best friends in Cali) and a coffee with the actor, Bo Svenson (more on those visits in another post) we made the long drive to Wisconsin and arrived home on September 11.

I wish I could tell you it was an eventful journey. My picture-taking is a sad reflection of what turned out to be THE most boring, piece of shit drive of our lives. At least that was the case from Denver east to the Wisconsin border. Denver and the remaining part of CO. NE, IA, IL - Jas and I were looking for guns and ammo in the car to shoot our brains out. And EVERYONE I've related our experience to agreed.

Click on READ MORE! if you wanna see some average pics of the most boring drive of my life. My advice to you wanderlust Bohemians looking for solace on the open road: do not take the northern route. Unless of course you're looking to become suicidal. Then by all means, knock yourselves out.

Origami No. 23. "Foppotte". In honor of Monty Python's Flying Circus' 40th Anniversary.

Something silly. "Foppotte" means "a simple-minded person". It was a writing assignment for a blog which I contribute to.

A man walked into a coffee shop unaware that a book signing reception was in progress. Looking around, he recognized no one. Course he wasn’t from the area so why would he recognize anyone. The coffee shop was a-buzz with activity – people eating cheese and crackers, sipping wine, a violinist playing a cello in the corner (the cello player took sick), chit-chatting and – drinking coffee. In another corner there was a stately, middle-aged gentleman signing books. The author. The man walked up to the author and, noticing a few hundred books stacked on the table, grabbed one and paged through it.

"This your book?" asked the man.
"Yes," confirmed the author. "Would you like to purchase one? I'd be happy to sign it for you."
"No thanks." Uncomfortable pause. “What’s your book about?” asked the man.
“Growing up in Cambridge, Wisconsin.”
“Cambridge? Never heard of it,” said the man.
“It’s near Madison,” said the author. He returns to signing books.

Odd, thought the man. He imagined anyone could write a book about their childhood, particularly if they grew up in an interesting place. But Cambridge, Wisconsin? Never heard of it.

The man stated, "Now...if you had written about your life growing up in Madison, that would have been interesting." The author smiled. "But I didn't grow up in Madison. I grew up on Cambridge."
"Yes," said the man, "so you've said."

Madison would have been much better place to write about, the man thought to himself once again.

The author asked the man, “If you'd like some wine or cheese...”
“No thanks,” said the man.
“Well - enjoy your visit,” the author said and returned to signing books.

The man nodded at the author - and stood there for a few seconds.

“Foppotee,” said the man to the author.
“Excuse me?”
“Foppotee,” repeated the man.
“What does that mean?” asked the author.
The man stated firmly, “Foppotee.” He paused. “Foppotee, foppotah.”

The author sat there dumbfounded. He chose his next words carefully. “You’re a simple-minded person, aren’t you?”

The man stared at the author. It's not known whether the man was staring at the author or staring through him. It made no difference.

The man repeated himself. “Foppotee, foppotah.”
Then the man turned, walked out of the coffee shop as quickly as he had entered it.

The author stared at the door for a few seconds then returned to signing his books.“Foppotee,” he muttered under his breath.

Vikes Butt Rams, 38-10, Vikings 5-0.

Above: Favre congratulating Visanthe Shiancoe on his TD catch.

Nice ass-whooping by the Vikes. I understand the Rams were 0-4 going into this game and there's probably a lot of people thinking, "yahhhh but look who the Vikings beat". As I stated last season when the Jets (under Favre) beat the Arizona Cardinals (who lost in the Super Bowl), I will now repeat. "Yahhh, but..." comments are misnomers. To attain perfection in the NFL (perfect season including a SB win), a team MUST beat the "yahbut" teams. Period. On any given Sunday, ANY TEAM CAN WIN. We saw that a couple weeks ago when five or so favored teams lost to the underdogs. Look at the Patriots loss to Denver today. Nice job, Donovan & Maria & Tamra!

A win is a win. Period.


By the way, this is the first time in Brett Favre's illustrious, Hall of Fame, 19-year tenure in the NFL that he's been 5-0. NEXT WEEK: Ravens (3-2) @ Vikings (5-0). Tough game. GO FAVRE! GO VIKINGS!
