Well, things have begun to quiet down on Scary-Crayon, with 182 unique visits yesterday and only about 10 of them coming from forums I don't frequent. I'm a little relieved -- it's not that I don't appreciate all of the traffic, but I kinda wish people would pay attention to the other stuff on the site besides the TMNT anime. But I whined about that yesterday. Anyway, hopefully the visitors who decide to stick around will do just that. Not many of the visitors come over to the blog from the main page, but if you did, HI! Welcome. Nice to see you. 🙂 (more...)

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...)

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...)

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...)

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...)
