So apparently last night was the night I decided to take strange journeys through Dreamland.

I was the Mayor of Halloweentown in zayna‘s dreams, which is kinda cool. In mine, I was me…but I was me being played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in a movie about my trip to Las Vegas for training. Apparently, though, my training ended up getting wrapped up in terrorists or bugs from space or something because I was running around with a gun in my kilt.

Yeah. Arnold was dressed like me, too. In my “No, I will not fix your computer” shirt and a black Utilikilt.

So…did I make any strange appearances in YOUR dreams???

Hello, my friends.

My last post was a letter to my son. Some of the memories of our time together, and my feelings for him. I’ve gotten several comments from you, through email and other sources, about how it touched you. I get the feeling, though, that some of you may not want to “spoil” the post with your comments.

So.

Here’s your chance. Today is his 10th birthday. If you’d like, leave a note for him here. Tell him something you’ve observed about him, or share a memory. This isn’t necessarily for him now. This is for him when he’s older and we’re all long gone. Take a moment and drop a thought into a time capsule. I think it’s a pretty neat idea, personally. Writing specifically to the future version of a person. If you do too, participate.

And thanks.

Ok, last time I’ll mention the Rent thingy here, folks. Until I review it, that is.

netgoth, xanyboi, frith_lord and I will be at Applebee’s around 7:45 tonight. After dinner netgoth and frith_lord are going to split off to do their own thing and we’ll go see Rent. The movie starts at 8:45, so we are going to be cutting it close. If you guys want to show up earlier and get a table that’s totally cool.

So far, I’m aware of zayna, squarewave, alexis_wren, and prynne being the other folks for the expedition. I’d suggest, if you guys are getting there before us, you meet in front of the restaurant. squarewave is the ooky spooky bald guy with the hot red head standing next to him. Can’t miss him. 🙂

I have to go do some running around, so I’m going to grab my ticket while doing so.

See you guys tonight!

I think it’s very fitting that a television show that made a huge impact on the entertainment industry is doing so yet again. A group of Star Trek fans has gotten together and decided to create a fourth season of Star Trek : The Original Series. They have, so far, released two full episodes. They are doing this without the backing of a major studio, or really any kind of significant budget to speak of. They are doing it with tools that are available, really, to any of us.

They are currently working on a third episode.

The episode was written by D.C. Fontanna.

It will feature Walter Koenig.

The internet can, and will, continue to change the face of entertainment as we know it.

I realize that several of you are over in Tampa, so my question is…
Is Park Side too far? I’m thinking of catching this showing

Edit!!

So I forgot about Weight Watchers. Going to a meeting tomorrow night, and should be done there by 7:30. So let’s shoot for the 8:45 show. Say meet somewhere for grub at 7:45? Like Applebees? It’s right there in the parking lot.

Lemme know.

Rent opens on Wednesday.

You guys know how much of a musical geek I am.

Totally want to see it.

Who wants to go with?

You can buy the game for $24.99 at Best Buy on Black Friday

One of the things I truly enjoy about web comics is getting the chance to watch an artist develop their skill over time. How many of us read Peanuts for years and then look back at the early stuff and can hardly recognize the characters? Comics evolve, and with the web you have the opportunity to find a lot of artists as they start and watch that evolution take place.

Take Questionable content, for example. I found this comic a while ago, and have been reading it pretty regularly since. I didn’t catch it on day one, but I did go back and read all of the comics when I had the chance.

This is the first comic, from 2003.

This one was released today.

On a side note…I think he’s really captured something in the way he draws his women, and I think they’re totally hot.

I own it.
