Over-Acting

July 20, 2007

Just been watching a new Silent Witness episode. There’s a new cop guy character, who in this episode qualifies for the over-acting award. I’m wondering if anyone ever does much OverActing in real life. Over RE-acting sure, I do that all the time. But over-acting .. something quite different. I imagine it’d be a lot [...]

Ultimate Fighting Champion

July 20, 2007

Okay. Out of Rocky and Rambo, who would win? At first, you’d think without a doubt Rambo. I mean, the guy has an arsenal of weapons that Rocky’s fists cannot compete with. He also has some of Rocky’s grit and pluck and courage. Actually, quite a bit. I seem to remember leeches and electricity and [...]

Crackle Will Snap You Pop

July 20, 2007

Oh the tears. This video from the Grouper site is just that funny. I’m not sure what Crackle is .. but a simple google search would probably fix that. But it makes me wonder.

The travelling minstrel, the wanderer, is a great character to use in stories. Especially noise media, movies, theatre, tv, even radio [...]

The Stealing Brain

July 19, 2007

Last week, our garage was broken into. Now .. we live in a block of 10 apartments (we’re number 10 .. whoot). Our garage is underground, and you have an electronic roller door as the guardian to our car dungeon. Not only that, but unit number 10 gets a special batcave. We have our own [...]

Barney and The Todd

July 19, 2007

What if Barney (from How I Met Your Mother) and The Todd (from Scrubs) found each other. If the universe didn’t implode with all the awesomeness, then this pairing would make for some spectacular adventures. We have two of the craziest characters invented for modern telly. Not as generally crazy as Kramer, very specifically focused. [...]
