Alrighty, I've got a fun-filled photo post for you tonight. But first, a few notes about Scary-Crayon and other stuff, for anyone who's interested... (more...)

Links, Literary Rex, SC, and the MMH.
Category: Miscellany

Well, as you'll see if you scroll waaaaay down, I've added a handful of new links -- Candy Blue Kite, Undead Alice and the Vampires, BRODOTYPE, cheesedip.com, !!me am tOkKa.., and Immature, Narcissistic Self-Obsession. I'm thinking of maybe relegating the links to a drop-down menu of sorts, since I've got so many of 'em now, or at least moving the blog archives above the links so they don't get all lost at the bottom of the page. I'll probably end up doing both at some point...but for now, this is fine. And I've also rearranged the order of a few of the already present links. Nothing fancy. So welcome, new linked people! Glad to have you in the sidebar. 😉 (more...)

Your questions answered!

Yesteday, among a couple of other dvds, I picked up a used copy of Johnny Suede. Given Johnny's wacky hairdo and the description on the back of the box, I was expecting something along the lines of a live-action "Johnny Bravo" cartoon, but it turned out to be a lot less strange -- better in some ways, though not quite far-out wacky enough to work for a full review on Scary-Crayon (which admittedly was my main motivation for picking up the film). But it was an interesting film to watch, since it's a lot like the kind of movie I'd write (and have written part of, in a screenwriting class back at Yale), especially with characters named "Flip Doubt" and "Freak Storm". And whaddya know, Freak Storm was played by none other than Nick Cave (of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds)! Dunno if you're reading, Hannah, but you'd love this movie. 😉 (more...)

Ask me two questions!

Just finished writing up the latest Scary-Crayon feature -- I think I'll upload it sometime this evening. Maybe a little earlier. Who knows. You'll enjoy it, I think. If you can bear to read through it all, that is. It has words. Lots of them.

Right now it is hot as low draggin' balls in this house. Per some of the recent posts, if I must go to hell, I hope I get an ice hell. I can't take this heat. Bloody hell. It's sweltering and I'm melting. Like the witch when Dorothy poured water on her. Except I wish someone would pour water on me. Cold water. It would feel so nice. I need an ice bath. (more...)

Cereal Killers HEROES!!!!
Category: Miscellany

Still working on a response to Mac's three posts (one-two-three) that addressed my previous entry entitled "Why I am not a Christian (in part)". From the part that I've written so far, it's shaping up to be a lengthy amalgamation of my thoughts on the matter rather than a sustained and pointed reply, but it should be a good read for those of you interested in the subject. I should get it up tomorrow, but if not, Sunday for sure. In the meantime...

Fruity Pebbles, SUPERMAN, and Cocoa Pebbles!!!

Yep. Totally awesome. The Man of Steel sandwiched in between two boxes of the greatest cereals ever -- Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles. I'm stoked and quite pleased, too. (more...)
