Mustard Marvin
There's also a Ketchup Charlie which I think would be better suited for the mustard bottle. Not that yellow stuff coming out of Marvin's mouth isn't gross but I'd rather that than red stuff coming out of someone's nose oozing out onto my dawg.

Fat Head
Got a peek at the Death Pool that's circulating around work.
There seems to be some likely candidates missing from this portion of the list. Terry Gilliam, Tom Jones, Willie Nelson and William Shatner to name a few.
The "Risk Factors" crack me up though.

Monster Mask Making
Description of a RISD Continuing Ed. class I would love to take this Fall:
Nothing screams Halloween like a good silicone rubber monster mask. In this course, we push it further with a DIY mask -- a creation that begins as a drawing but is then given three-dimensional reality as an oil-based clay sculpture. With this technique, you can be as realistic (with pores, wrinkles and creases) or as otherworldly (with scales, wounds and craters) as you can imagine. The sculpting is just the start, as you next cast your mask in rubber, a fluid and durable synthetic material that has become the agent of choice among West Coast special effects shops. The course concludes with demonstrations of painting and finishing techniques that make your mask startlingly authentic and ready for debut in your video thriller or at a costume ball.
More Mutant Tax
Traffic Court. Need I say more?
Some observations:
Some observations:
- Some people hired Attorneys to plead guilty but with a good driving record. Why hire an Attorney when you could plead the same yourself (like I did) and only pay the $35 Court fee?
- All of these Attorneys looked like Sean Penn in Carlito's Way but only grosser. How many tassle shoes can one girl take in a week?
- Window tinting was a pretty popular offense. If you didn't prove that the tinting was removed then you'd have to pay a $250 fine.
- The Bailiff was not at all like Bull from Night Court. Nor did the Judge do magic.
Goober Time!
Because I am indeed a goober I am totally posting photos of the new car. I'm in love with the iPod controls on the steering wheel! The only thing I need to learn is how to disable the speed sensitive volume control.
Mutant Tax
Got a great deal on a car today although we did have to pay a sizeable mutant tax for dealing with the car salesman. I have to say that I was surprised by how stereotypical the whole process was. I just about died when the car salesman came back after his 3rd time of talking with his manager and made the following list:
- Color
- Price
- Me
Ouch!
Frenchie Duchamp...Madame Fatal...Blarney Cock....Freedom Ring...
Wow...it's tough being a gay comic-book character:
The List of Eww Just Got Longer
On a diet and have a tendency to overdo the carbs? The secret to resistance is this:
Eww, Eww and Eww
Went to my Mom's Town pool this weekend and yup, this truly happened. Gross.

The Trollenberg Terror
The Trollenberg Terror (aka The Crawling Eye) is totally one of those movies that I remember watching as a kid. I know I've seen it more than once and from what I can remember it was always on at weird times, like Saturdays at 4:30 p.m. Gee, I wonder why.Even though I could remember bits and pieces of the film I couldn't, for the life of me, remember the title..until today. I think my Google search was something like "horror film about giant squid in alps" and voila!
Please tell me I'm not alone in seeing this horrible gem of a movie!
There's another movie though that I just can't locate. And part of my problem is that I'm not even sure if it was a movie or an Outer Limits episode. What I do remember is this:
- black and white film
- set in the future
- (possibly) set on a different planet
- at certain points during the day the people on this planet would have to don special glasses and find cover so as to not get harmed by this lethal "rain".
- This "rain" looked like glass.
Sears Tower Skydeck Ledge
Check out the insane Sears Tower Skydeck Ledge.
"Each box is comprised of three layers of half-inch thick glass laminated into one seamless unit." That's not alot of inch-age separating you from a 1300 foot drop!
