On Kittens

My neighbors have two cats–Cat and Cheddar. Cat had kittens about six weeks ago. Chedder had kittens Saturday morning. Cat and her kittens are currently living in the storage shed behind my house. Cat is a blue-grey. Two of her kittens are the same. The other three are a lighter, tiger-striped grey. My sister cameContinue reading “On Kittens”

On How My Day Went

I don’t fucking want to talk about it.

On My Day

Yesterday. Got to work at nine. Left work at midnight, fifteen hours later. Today? Probably the same. I’ve started mucking with the body chemistry. Two cups of coffee already, and probably a whole pot once I get to work. At least, I’ll brew a whole pot. I feel like a Mack truck is running lapsContinue reading “On My Day”

On Dan Quayle's Wisdom

“It’s a terrible thing to lose one’s mind,” former Vice President Dan Quayle said famously. I know of whence he speaks. I can feel it go. But all is not lost! At least, I don’t think it is….

On Hitchhiker's

I went to see Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy tonight. I liked it. I liked it a lot. I thought it was fun, if not always funny. Okay, some of the great scenes from the book are missing. No Arthur convincing the foreman to lie down in the mud and take his place while heContinue reading “On Hitchhiker's”

On Doctor Who Videos

Who North America is running a sale on Doctor Who videos–a goodly number are running at 4.50 each. Just what I need, more Doctor Who videos, but I do have some gaps in the collection to fill, and how can one say “No!” to such inexpensive videos? 🙂

On Fan Films

Slate.com posted an article today on Revelations, a Star Wars fan film. I’ve not seen the film–the pity of a dial-up connection–but I’ve seen a few Star Wars fan films. The classic Troops I have on DVD. The article’s idea is that with Lucas finishing what he wanted to say in the Star Wars universeContinue reading “On Fan Films”

More Thoughts on the Cats

Woody and Tails have been fighting in the house. Tails doesn’t like people. Tails doesn’t like other cats. She never has. Tails sleeps during the day, all day long, and avoids people like the plague. But when the sun goes down, when the world goes still, in the dark she will wander the house andContinue reading “More Thoughts on the Cats”

On My Republicanism

Seen on Bill Leisner‘s blog, a test to measure your Republican percentage! Let’s take a look, shall we? I am: 7% Republican. “You’re a complete liberal, utterly without a trace of Republicanism.  Your strength is as the strength of ten because your heart is pure.  (You hope.)” Are You A Republican? I tend to thinkContinue reading “On My Republicanism”

More on H2G2

Yesterday I cited an early review of this week’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Today FilmThreat has a feature on the marketing of Hitchhiker’s. Two quotes stand out, both near the end: Between the unfunny posters, unfunny trailers and unfunny website Disney isn’t doing a very good job of marketing this as a movie. TheContinue reading “More on H2G2”
