What's Brian Benton been up to? Not much...

2007-03-13T12:44:00.000-07:00

Well, not much besides switching to lite beer.

Married life is going well for him in the sense that his wife hasn't asked for a divorce yet, for which he can't blame her. I mean have you seen this guy's abs? If you're into dough, you'll know what I'm talking about.

He's also an active participant in a health care plan and has been employed for over a year at the same company! Oh yes, the American dream is alive and well in this one.

As a web developer for a subsidiary of the Dow Jones company, Brian lives the high-life by being granted a free copy of the Wall Street Journal almost every single day (excluding weekends and Wednesdays). Thanks to his glamorous position, he's also the proud sitter at a desk of no less than three people! Wow!

When he's not fielding offers for comedy writing, Playboy photography and beer taste-testing, he's streaming sports talk radio over the internet and fathering children on his poor wife, Isha. His first project, Madeline, is due sometime in June.

What are his plans for the future? With an unfair advantage in good looks and talent, anything he wants! In the meantime he's looking forward to reading lots of email from long lost friends who sadly reside only in his memory from far gentler times. He can be reached at bbenton2002@hotmail.com. He looks forward to hearing from you!

Sesame Street Porn?

2007-02-17T15:45:00.000-08:00

Did you know that famous song by the Muppets 'Mah na Mah na' is actually from a 60’s Swedish porno movie???

From Wikipedia

"Mah Nà Mah Nà" is a well-known pop music song, written by Piero Umiliani. It was a hit in many countries, including the USA, in 1968–1969. The song's lyrics contain no actual words, only nonsense words resembling scat singing. The original version interpolates melodies from "Swedish Rhapsody" ("Midsommarvaka" ("Midsummer Vigil")) by Hugo Alfvén, "Santa Lucia", "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy", the jazz standard "Lullaby of Birdland", and others.

"Mah Nà Mah Nà" debuted as part of Umiliani's soundtrack for the Italian softcore pornography movie Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso (Sweden, Heaven and Hell) (1968), a pseudo-documentary film about wild sexual activity and other behavior in Sweden ("Mah Nà Mah Nà" accompanied a scene set in a sauna). A soundtrack album, "Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso" was released in 1968. The movie was also released under the English title Sweden Heaven and Hell.

Miss Vanja Maars Booth!

2007-02-17T15:09:00.000-08:00

Esther and I would like to introduce you all to our daughter, Miss Vanja Maars Booth!

She was born July 23, 2:17pm, weighing in at 7lb3oz, at Roosevelt Hospital, in glorious NYC (our first gift to her: bragging rights!)

SO: here are some pictures! The early ones, to be sure, but hey, we want to start at the beginning.

Cheers and Love to all, Esther, Lyle and Vanja

ps/btw/fyi: Vanja is the feminine Scandinavian spelling of Vanya, which is the patronymic of Ivan, which is Russian for John, which means “God is gracious”. Whew. Maars is short for Maarschalkerweerd, which is Es’s family name. Booth we pulled out of a hat.
