Who’s Done It Best

In the two Part Doctor Who episode ” The Forest of The Dead”  and ” Silence In The Library” evil  creatures are hiding in a city that houses a computer-

a big computer, a huge computer, a living computer.

And those evil creatures that feed off of organic material ( well, human flesh ) are living in….

books.

Lots and lots of books.

Books that are made out of wood pulp.

Paper.

This made me think:

When we give kudos to the new ” Sci Fi ” stories, those kudos get tossed around like confetti because woman can now shoot big guns and sometimes even get to be Captains on actual spaceships and have ripley muscles just like their male counter parts.

But come on how is that cutting edge exactly?

Some writers just figured out that you can substitute male characters for female characters because really, they can do the same exact job.

Sort of like real life.

Anyway.

In this Doctor Who episode we did see something cutting edge, we saw something unique we saw a story that takes place in the future ( well, that’s a guess where Doctor Who is concerned-but stick with me here ) and in that future were books.

Books with pages that you can turn, pages that crackle and pop when they’re new and whisper when they get old.

How cutting edge is that?

Very.

After all.

A Science Fiction story about Time Travel had at it’s core…books…

books in a Library.

In these times when we walk around with a phone that is sort of like having a second brain that you can hold in your hand ( also a addressed in Doctor Who episode: Planet Of The Ood )

I found ” The Planet Of The Ood “episode to be more of a shot across the bow of the hi-tech ship everyone I know seems to be sailing on then then to be story a story about slavery or disease.

So I will freely admitt I thought is was a riot when my Cell Phone enslaved friends watched this and didn’t seem to see the comparison between themselves and the Ood and the guy who gets ” turned “.

I think that seeing a story about books

made me realize

how much I would miss them if they were gone.

So that must mean on some level

I must feel like they’re being taken away…made irrelevant.

When did that happen?

The funny thing is, The Doctor would know.

Doctor Who.

It has more then a real hot guy playing the lead role.

It happens to have some excellent stories too.

Enjoy…

and THINK next time you watch it.

Thanks To A Bunch of Inconsiderate Jerks Christmas Is Ruined!

Global Warming is NOT funny.

So don’t laugh when I say

somebody is totally F*&^%$#@ up Santa’s back yard.

Do something so that you do NOT add to this very real problem. ( crazy Republicans who are looking to submit a comment to tell me off be warned, I moderate this blog- just doing my part to cut down on the death threats and potty language that seems to hang over us all like noxious clouds …or don’t you guys believe in things like the ‘theory’ behind clouds  too? )

So the rest of you-  educate yourself about this problem- otherwise I see a very Grim Christmas and possibly a tropical situation happening up there in the North Pole and new forms of life popping up all over the place ( well, if you count mutant animals and people with extra body parts as being a ‘new’  thing).

Hey.

Remember those dome cities in ” Total Recall ” when the  glass failed?

Remember what happened to the people living there?

Ha.

Doesn’t seem like such a weird idea NOW does it?

So here’s a start.

And if you can’t take care of our Planet for your kids and friends and family do it for Santa and his Reindeer.

At least.

It’s All In The Hips

How boring is the world we live in?

I’m glad you asked because I have THE answer.

It is so boring that

no one made a big deal out of the fact that

Hula Hoops have been with us for 50 years.

FIFTY YEARS.

So get your Hoops out and  Hula Already

What are you waiting for?

The Anniversary of the Yo- Yo

which I’ll bet gets ignored too…

Geeze.

Word Up

It’s all about words today here at the Bones.

If you could banish a word from the English Language what would it be?

Me.

I would flush the word boing.

Heck.

I wouldn’t even bother to flush it, I’d take a plunger and jam it down the first toilet I could get too before I could stomp it out of existance.

Who the hell came up with that one?

Boing.

It serves no darn purpose.

Oh and while I’m at it I say we loose Awesome…I don’t hate the word Awesome I just think it would be funny to see what happens if people can’t short cut a view by heading down ‘awesome avenue’ instead of EXPLAINING why they think something is so spectacular it sucks the air out fo their lungs and makes them feel that the Universe is truly a very big place and that feeling sends a tingle up and down their spine.

So … think about it what word would you like to lose?

 

Blame It On Pam

 

This is NOT a terrorist.

This is a cook from the Food Network.

Following me so far?

This is a Terrorist

His name is Osama Bin Laden.

Keep up here-

Food Network Cook Rachael Ray:

Terrorist.

Here is the idiot and the idiot post that started this conversation

which I feel a need to address

instead of doing my traditional Friday Fun Post about David Tennant:

The controversial ad, which appeared earlier this month on the doughnut chain’s Web site to promote its iced coffee, came under fire nearly two weeks ago when  blogger Pam Geller posted it under the headline “Rachel [sic] Ray: Dunkin Donuts Jihad Tool.”

“Have you seen Rachel [sic] Ray wearing the icon of Yasser Arafatbastard and the bloody Islamic jihad,” Geller wrote. “This is part of the cultural jihad..”

 

Pam this is NOT Cultural Jihad

The only act of terrorism I see here is YOU blowing David Tennant Day

at Irregular Bones

straight to Hell.

…you tool Pam

Look

shut the Hell up and don’t do this to Irregular Bones Again.

Now I have to go to Dunkin Donuts and buy lots and lots of donuts and then I’m going to say Rachael sent me.

Guess what I’ll be wearing when I do…

go on GUESS.

What The World Needs

I’ve figured it out.

I know what would make the world a better place.

A more interesting place.

The world needs more Crab Jokes.

That’s what it needs.

That’s What I Said

 

Viagra was invented in the town of Merthyr Tydfil, Wales.

“Sphenopalatineganglioneuralgia” is a medical term for ailment known as “brain freeze.”

A recent study showed that as many as 16 million people alive today, about .5% of the population of Earth, are descendants of Genghis Khan.
