It's Sunday afternoon, and drudgery awaits. Laundry. Cleaning. Doing all the work I thought I would have Doombots doing by the time I hit my forties. Damn it! Where are my Doombots? At this point, I'd even settle for Twiki.
And this just creeps me out. It's all CGI, but still gives me the damnable willies.
What else? Oh, I finally watched Justice League: The New Frontier. I adored it. I hadn't read the original comic series, so this was all new to me. This is nothing less than a love letter to the Silver Age, and I admit to being a little misty-eyed at the end. I recommend it to all of you, especially Jim Dandy and Sonny. I think Sonny will not stop smiling for the entire thing.
Also received a free comic this weekend. When I say 'free', I mean in the 'The First One's Free' sort of way drug pushers employ the word. I mean, I have no idea why he would think I would find this at all interesting:
Still, I did read it, and have to admit it was far better than I expected. The art is fully painted, and were I one to notice such things, I would say the artist has a way of depicting beautiful women that draws the eye. If I noticed those sorts of things. The story is more adult than I expected, but with costumes like that, how could they not be?
Well, enough procrastinating. There is drudgery to be endured. But before we go, I have to add this. If Jim Dandy is going to be digging up Galaxina to remind us how long ago our teenage years were, I have only this to add:

I really should know better than to pry open your brain-pan for a looky-see inside. Just have to learn to let things lie. Can't.
Loved "The New Frontier", both book and movie. Giddy fun.
And I blame Col. Deering for putting me off spandex, and spandex jump suits. Like eating too much ice cream, I finally overdosed and couldn't go back.
I would punt Twiki into orbit, right beside Daggit. Better no robot than that chattering sycophant.
And speaking of Galaxina and our days of wine and roses, I trust you have seen this South Park homage to Heavy Metal.
No, I haven't seen that one yet. I just watched the AIDS episode, and laughed, but felt guilty.
A friend of mine got to interview Ms. Gray a few years ago, and apparently, he found her to not be a very nice person. And I was never hot for her, either. Just throwing it out there.
But Kristy McNichol? Homina homina. I mean, *then*, not now.
Kristy? Oh yeah. I will admit to having watched "Just The Way You Are" more than once, and "Two Moon Junction" for that really artistic scene.
