I'll Say She Is!
Friday, 1 November 2002
You kids get off my lawn!

Knock on door. Door opens seconds later.

"Trick or Treat!"

"Hi guys. A monster and a pimp. That's...cool."

"I'm a dead pimp!"

"Oh?"

Youngster indicates hint of pale makeup on face. "Yeah. I got popped, see?"

"Ah! Well, Happy Halloween!"

ADDENDUM: Using Mal Wart bags to hold your Trick or Treat loot is tacky. Spring the 78 cents to get one of those plastic pumpkins. Or else go with the traditional pillowcase.

A little off topic, I know, but did Jeff invent that button link for Gamera_spinning? That's incredibly cool! Not just that he put that together in rotating graphics, but that he knew the kanji for "Gamera". You suppose it'd be alright if I borrowed that (with appropriate credit, of course)?
Yup, it was mine. I was googling for the words to the MST3K Gamera theme song, and on one of the pages was a Japanese poster of Gamera, all in Kanji text. It immediately ordered me to make a spinning version as a link button for your site, and I obeyed.

By all means, please use it!
"Gam-er-a is really neat, he is made of turtle meat, we all love you Gam-er-aaaaa!"

*grin* I miss MST3K. I wish I had a big trunkful of pre-SciFiChannel MST3K.
Does anyone know WHY there was never a MechaGamera? Godzilla rated a couple of different Mechagodzillas, King Kong had to face a Robotic Kong (who had the world's most annoying sound effect), but the Friend to Children of Everywhere is stuck fighting Gaos and Zigra, and other second stringers....

Sweet saspirilla, I've regressed into commenting on the opponents of giant, flying fire breathing turtles. A new low has been achieved. I blame it on that wrestling discussion.
Perhaps Gojira and King Kong just had better agents?
