I had a freaky dream last night, involving the reanimated and rotting corpses of old movie stars… they were quite large… maybe 2 or 3 stories… small to godzilla, but frighteningly huge to me. (or maybe I was just little kid size? hard to say… the perspective was not something I was paying close attention to.)

I distinctly remember Anthony Quinn and Cesar Romero duking it out, as well as a huge number of other long-dead folk, too. Anes Moorhead and John Wayne… and I knew ( despite a lack of dialogue) that they all wanted to eat the house I was living in. I remember having to get a few things and take off, lest they consume me in their horrible, necrotic jaws, as well as the house. I vividly recall grabbing things of importance like newt and my laptop, and pulling out the top drawer of my dresser to take my goodies. (love letters, misc keepsakes).

I wish that I’d remembered my Zombie knowledge that I have while awake…there’s a big container of salt in the kitchen… I think that would’ve helped to fend them off.

I believe is right… his mention of voo doo to my word of the day a couple of entries back may very well have set off that random crackling of neurons.

oh, and the perils of cloning

tonight’s supper tape… I didn’t get much reading done.

“I am mighty! I have a glow you cannot see. I have a heart as big as the moon, as warm as bathwater. We’re superheroes, man! We don’t have time to be charming! The boots of evil were made for walking. We’re watching the big picture, friend. We know the score. We are a public service, not glamour boys! Not captains of industry! Not makers of things! Keep your vulgar moneys. We are a justice sandwich, no toppings necessary! Living rooms of America, do you catch my drift? Do you…dig?”

the tick, red dwarf, batman (adam west), and the twisted tales of Felix the cat.

Did I mention that I love having unmarked tapes lying around? It’s like the Scotto Channel. All stuff I liked enough to record, and promptly forgot about.

This evening’s Fare was (with tasty ramen & sweet peas), with a side of mandrin orange arizona tea –

Batman/Green Hornet Team up.

red dwarf – (Back to Reality: The crew of Red Dwarf discover an abandoned space ship on an ocean bed but suddenly the salvage operation doesn’t sound quite so sexy when they realise all of the occupants of the vessel committed suicide. Attack by a gigantic sea monster makes escape the favorite option. )

twisted tales of felix – star trek spoof, clean the planet… amazing art! (reminds me of blackie. ๐Ÿ™‚ )

Tick vs the Aztecs. (the first appearace of Speak!)

A fine evening’s entertainment. mighty fine. I’m sort of happy I’ve been without cable for so long! I discovered I have 735 npcs in my database… more than I’ll ever, ever play. I alphabetized them, numbered them, and will make a nice searchable DB of them over time, just so the gamer community at large can enjoy… my net-book contribution.

I wonder how many folks will play my pcs? I know that miniMAX was picked up by a pbem, as was nexus and green lantern ’67 (greenpeace). The vast majority of the NPC’s are adaptations of comics chars… I think I have 4 or 5 versions of the fantastic four, for example. different capabilities, point levels, or systems. Mostly Champions and GURPS.

speaking of multi-genre gaming…D&D clue? Bilbo, in the orc cavern, with the vorpal blade… I sort of like it.

By the way… welcome back, ! One of my fave LJers back and writing. I’m very happy to see you.

I’m turning in. I’m going to read a bit, and dream of my sweetheart in her purple jammies.

Good Night… follow the trundling Scotto-pod to his preferred habitat… the nightchamber. Pleasant dreams to all you meat people, plasma folk, and fellow pods.

Tron Sequel – Tron 2.0.. I think that the Tron DVD looks keeno, too.

Memories from the Tick cartoon – “Don’t worry, you have nothing to fear from Tongue-Tongue; he’s only tasting you. But, likewise, don’t resist, for he can crush you quite easily. The tongue is a very powerful muscle, and Tongue-Tongue is all tongue. I am Dr. Mung-Mung. Now, release the nice moth-man, Tongue-Tongue. Here is an individually-wrapped slice of processed cheese.”

For my personal reference, and anyone else, the live action -8:30-9:00 THE TICK (NEW SHOW) (1st Season) – Series Premiere Thu 11/1/01 on fox. Let us all hope it doesn’t tank too quickly. ๐Ÿ™‚

Help! Help! Here come the Bears!

In The Wonderland Zoo,
There are certain bears who,
Stay at home every night,
Never quarrel or fight,
Hey! We don’t even bite!

Hair BearBubi BearSquare BearHi!

Fodder for a new icon or three or four. It’s nearly 30 years later, and I’m still trying to figure out the invisible three-man (three bear) motorcycle.

the guys on the invisible bike

I talked to my brother last night, aroud 11pm, midnight…. they got a windows cd, but still have a defective sound card. next weekend I’ll bring one of the spares up and set him tright… he really want to play hellcab, and some of the other games. I know how annoying it can be to work with a hobbled machine. Note to self, send off mail for assorted mailfolks today. I have treats for a few people to drop at the post office.

Sakes, Monday again. Makes sense…the weekend was good, but didn’t seem too short. Well, best be off on my daily routine. Going walkies, then a nice shower before dressing for work. see you kids later on.

On Video – Monty Python/Red Dwarf

In Belly – Woo… it was a luau-a-go-go..pineapple chunks, sweet peas, veggie dogs and ukulele music abounded as I crooned tiny bubbles to Newton (Who played at my feet as I threw milk rings for him to fetch as I ate. Looking sort of bad… my laptop’s spacebar is missing taps when I smack it with my right thumb. I’ll have to read my insurance policy, and see about what repair involves. I don’t imagine it’ll be much trouble. I don’t want to take it apart myself if it voids any repair warrantee.

Oh good golly.

Tape is now the ALF cartoon.

Previously – Dr. Demento’s 1991 countdown. Wall of Voodoo, Mexican Radio and Up and Comer DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince with ‘Girls ain’t nuthin’ but trouble’… Camper Van Beethoven – Take the Skinheads bowling, Dead Milkmen with ‘Punk Rock Girl’.

Jinkies! I miss 1991’s tunes. ๐Ÿ™‚

Chores update

vcr tapes have switched to old episodes of maniac mansion, tiny toons and MTV’s Buzz

I see a light at the end of the tunnel!

Landlord was by, and fixed the phone jack and toilet (sort of broke something else, though, so he’ll be back in a few to fix that. ๐Ÿ™‚ )

It’s raining hard outside, so I’ll probably to my laundry after cleaning up the apartment, either tonight or tomorrow. Ack, sorting books, cd’s software, and assorted schtuff. My RP Gaming stuff is especially large and cumbersome, as is my programming pile. I thik I’ll have 2 or more long bookshelves of each. I’ve Rp’ed too many systems. each editition of Ars Magica, Call of Cthulhu, GURPS, Champions, and scads of supplements, plus all sorts of oddball systems that have snuck in here or there. Noticably abscent is AD&D…. I sold all of that stuff off at the local game store last time I moved. (made a pretty penny, too…) the only remaining vestige from that period is a few lead mini’s and some wacky high-impact plastic dice.

A *ton* of stuff… did I really have a time in my life when I was living out of a backpack?

I’m missing my sweetie! I wonder where she’s at… usually I get a good morning hello, but today she’s been offline so far. I hope she’s feeling good, and digging her chores. ๐Ÿ™‚ I’m doing the snow-white ‘whistle while you work thing…’ I’m so goofy about being in love sometimes… but it’s ok, she doesn’t mind my mushitude when it comes to her. I love her so much, it’s cray-zee! *shouts it from the rooftops*.

Ah luv yew, baby bear! ๐Ÿ™‚

link-man!

while procrastinating on my short story, and shaking from being on the upswing from drinking company coffee. (about a pot or so…) I surf while waiting for data to arrive.

This is messed up. http://www.msnbc.com/news/475364.asp

here’s the blurb –

Who wants to get a divorce on national television and win $100,000? Interested? Then hook up with Fox. The television network that brought you โ€œWho Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire?โ€ โ€” apparently learning little from that experience โ€” now wants to make divorce entertainment for the masses, with marital assets as prizes.

end blurb.

How totally wrong is that?

I support the right to show anything on tv to adults… but I know I’m not going to bother with a show that rewards people for ending marriage on tv. F’-ed up, that is.

What’s next? Reality TV, where you get paid points for catching your spouse in varying states of infidelity? “Woo! Bob got a hooker! Looks like His wife will get $1000 for that one!” “That nearly makes up for Mary giving the children ether so she can run off with the babysitter” Blow by blow coverage by sports guys? [hm. no pun intended]

Can focusing on a sad thing (which I imagine divorce is, more often than not) and paying for it be a good idea? Am I over-reacting in my current addled state?

Hey all!

I imagine I’ve finally arrived! I got my first rude anonymous post! (two, actually!) I’m amazed it’d taken as long as it had…

On another note, welcome sanssouci and everyone else who has recently linked to me. ๐Ÿ™‚

Saw PSycho Beach Party with my little brother today, had a fun time with him, all told. I recommend PSB to anyone.

The scary thing is that we have a girl at work that is a spitting image of Lauren Ambrose. And she loves Dharma and Greg. ๐Ÿ™‚ (Lauren and the Greg guy are both in the film.)

this just in. (this is a true-fact… not a scotto-sillie) From Salon.

Oct. 8, 2000 | LOS ANGELES — The actress who played “Fonzie’s” girlfriend on television’s “Happy Days” has admitted she violated probation when she hit her ex-boyfriend with a cane.

Roz Kelly, 58, who played Pinky Tuscadero opposite actor Henry Winkler in the long-running comedy, faces up to two years in prison for the violation, prosecutors said Friday.

Kelly was sentenced to three years probation last year after she pleaded no contest to charges she fired a shotgun at two cars and into a home. She was ordered to undergo psychiatric counseling for what her attorneys said was a bipolar disorder.

She was arrested Aug. 20 after her former boyfriend told police she hit him on the head.
