No Vaginas For Michael
Auntie Stella and my Mum have been at the accountants all week for Year Rend, so Stella said that I can write the column this time... Full Story Apr 19 2008 | Comments (5)
And my erstwhile quest to find out what the abaddon is going on with Legend of Zelda Online is at an end intersection.
(apparently nothing is going on on the official online front as yet - Ed)
and what IS up with that?

LOUUUUUUU FERRANGO .. why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you,
(you better let somebody love you)
You better let somebody love you,
before it's too late.
Oh you were all thinkin it bitches.
(I'm pretty sure it's Lou Ferrigno - Ed)
Yes, but Kurt's version is funnier Ed.

Manic Maniac: Mania news with a cynical twist - Jun 12, 2008 - 08:11am
Good big-testicles call on Minority Report and The Matrix, pop opine threatened to diss both for extraneous reasons once upon a midnight dreary, and it's good to see more peoples raising their purple gloved (index -Ed) fingers and saying, "woah there sparky, just because it stars Cruise does not (necessarily - Ed) auto-correlate to endemic suckitude" and "whether or not one felt `there was no spoon' in the Matrix followups, the level of a sequel (or two - Ed) ought not alter the quality of the first entry, particularly when it is imo, a masterpiece, or at least as close as one is likely to get in the pop culture device known as mainstream cinema...bitch"
(don't mince words bones tell us what you really think - Ed) Go Away Ed.
re: The future of mankind and of SF
I think we're off in an overtly-complicated and wrought with disaster direction, if it's immortality that we seek.
bio-cellular (and/or artificial cell) manipulation carries with it the problem of cascading coding errors in both design and replication, and opens the portcullus to man-as-upgradable software. We can't even get computer software to work properly!
What will the human equivalent of the BSOD be? will we all act like David Hasselhoff when we crash?
Besides we all know where this will lead when the dna can be re-sequenced on the fly by hackers. Yes, Giant-Octo-Titties (designed my males) 8.5 foot dicks (designed by teens and The Madonna/Carmen Electra/XtinaAguilera/EltonJohn consortium) and tight vaginas (designed by women that underwent natural child-birth who are fed up with Dr. Kegel -Ed)
This isn't going to end well.
(Future Stock Tip: invest in the lube industry now - Ed)
unfortunately arguably the single worst episode of Star Trek TOS (Spock's Brain) had it mostly right imo, brain-transplanting (preferably into exo-skeletons rather than jars - Ed) while oxymoronically perceived as SF retro-future, would seem to moi to be a more achievable or at least less Brundle-Fly telpod start to longevity.
Looooooove your style Joe, particularly that you aren't afraid to exercise your brain on the web, and also nice to see that you assume that netizens likewise 'ave brains (brain, brain, brain, what is brain! -Ed); if you're new, welcome aboard, hope to be inhaling more of you!
Now watch this drive.

Ratner Set for Incredible SHRINKING Man - Apr 19, 2008 - 01:53pm
And I still say if you took "Changing Places" and had the 2 old farts make a bet that they could pluck a chronic masturbating perverted vagrant out of an alley (while he was trenchcoat flashing a dilapidated poster of a moose -Ed) and turn him into a big movie director, you'd wind up with Brett Ratner.
NoNoNoNoNoNoNoNoNo well. I thought his best film was Red Dragon, not just his best film, but a bloody good film - there's real talent in that movie.
(AHA so apparently chronic masturbating perverted moose-flashing vagrants can direct good movies - Ed)
and? most of Hollywood's directors are chronic perverts Ed.
But X3? ^Raise-Baseball-Bat NEIN! *WHAM*WHAM*WHAM* it's the flippant megalomaniacal Schumacher-like disrespect for the comic book legacy on display in the X3 film that warrants Ratner the or at least my baseball-bat bashings.
Also at last call, Halle Berry was begging convention fans to petition Fox to make an X-men 4 movie. As they're apparently not returning the original casts calls. Look, of all the ways I wanted to see Halle Berry Beg, that was not the one on the top of my butterscotch pudding fantasy list.
I'm with *gaze back* uh that bloke wot said I hope the "all new, all younger" (all not related to the original franchise because after what Ratner did, we're not risking it - Ed) all-new X-men franchize isn't going to be a repeat of the D-EVOLUTION that I felt took place when the 90's X-Men animated series was needlessly replaced by that apparently-drawn-by-your-kid-brother-while-he-was-OD'ing-on-Riddlin "X-Men Evolution" series.
But you know, to each their own opine.
(.."however inferior to his it may be" - Ed)
however inferior to mine it ma.. *WHAM* I hate it when he does that.

Why I did not add you as a friend along time ago baffles me...You by far are one of the most creative/talented free thinking people at this site...Anyways I like your stuff and keep it coming...

Thanks for the link to Maniac Mansion Deluxe. I'll have to go get it.
If Tom Welling could fill the role of Superman in the theater, well I'm not certain about it. (That's because, after 7 seasons, I'm too used to him whining and bitching about how he can't jump Lana, and how Lana won't jump him, or Supergirl, or whatever.)
Routh isn't bad as Superman, though. (Recast Lois! Use the chick from Smallville as the next Lois!)
