More love for Sandman. I read it the old fashion way, one issue a month while eating a feta calzone in a bar. I enjoyed the one off stories more than the long ones but that's just me.
Asa Dye, I love Mister X as well. I wish they had put together a story that equaled the basic idea.

I hear that the boy was added to give Coraline some one to talk to, like the companions on Dr Who. Plus he has a Banana Slug.

So why not. Vampires can be vegatarian and do moon eyed lovey dovey movies. Zombies are still just slow moving targets for high powered ammo. Is that fair?

There's a band called BR549, I think they're country-punks. If 36-24-36 were measurements would they be metric? Something like 91-61-91?

Cities in flight
I have a copy of 'Cities in Flight' laying around somewhere. I should dig it out and give it a read.
I heard that Blish, who was a biologist, worked for the tobacco institute and died of lung cancer. That's some heavy irony. More than anything he wrote.

The word 'billiard' screws it up. If it was a full minute of a man racking balls, that sounds nasty

The only reason to watch is the clothes. After the red carpet, who cares.

Most modern radio country is crap. Its always been that way. The stuff that gets lots of radio play is mindless junk. But there is good stuff, Cash, Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn. For me the greatest of all is the Carter Family. If you didn't like the Carter family you didn't understand music.

In many ways Shakespeare was a hack. At his peak he was cracking out two plays a year, and running a theater, and acting, and writing poems.
But my GOD, what a hack. A bare stage, no effects, no pretty cinematography, just words.

Make room guys. ZMF will be here any second now.

I wear glasses. I like the gestures that go with them. I can slide them down my nose and say 'Oh, really?' when someone's said something stupid.

Most people in the south are pasty. Its too hot outside, they run from their house to their car to their job. The sun is bad down there.

"There's no use talking,
No human sound can stand up to it
Loud enough to knock you down
Burn out."

Its a cult. They follow an infallible leader, so yeah, cult.

MacGyver Vs. the A-Team. Both sides build huge flying tanks out of junk that was laying around. Just as they're getting ready for the big showdown, they realize they're being used by the creepy rich guy. So they unite to save the cute South American village of orphans with a home built Saturn V that puts the bad guy

I'm with you Space Pope. McCay's artwork is amazing. I never saw the movie, I'm told its all screwed up. The gave the Princess a name and that's just wrong.

If they remake 'Space 1999' they need to do 'UFO' as well, with an all Brit cast. Brits in space, haha, dream on boys.

I just remembered, My Grandfather liked mountain oysters, which is another name for pig testicles. I don't know how they were cooked or even if they where cooked. Would they have a worst texture then pickled lips? Would they be crunchy or chewy? I'll have to ask around.

The meat from the head is called souse. I've never tried it, but its just meat. Some people like pig brains, I think I'll pass.

This is turning into a huge mess. At last count over a thousand posts, some of them long posts, over what? I like something, I don't like something. These are what my fellow science nerds and I call 'value judgments'. Its based on feelings. 'Like' can't be measured. It can't be logically deduced. I can't argue someone
