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.

Just What The Doctor Ordered
Of all the Doctor Who episodes I’ve seen so far I’d have to say:
David Tennant is almost as cool as Peter Davidson, who , if you care was younger then David Tennant when he took the role as The Doctor in 1982.
And
Donna rocks it in the Companion Department- she’s like Tegan on Steroids, which is fine because Tegan was always my favorite D.W. companion.
So back to tonight’s episode Forest Of The Dead- it’s going to be a classic- if it’s as good as Pt 1 Silence In The Library that is.
And Tony…no spoilers if you’re reading this!

So let me know what you think if you catch the Doctor Tonight-

Modern Love Sucks
Cut Flowers.
Give them to someone you love.
How morbid.
How useless.
How strange
But I think I get it- back in the caveman days I’ll bet a male showed his love by killing and dragging home a Woolly Mammoth( by his teeth no less ) to prove his ability to care for his intended.
So instead of a giant dead animal in these modern times you get a giant bunch of dead flowers.
Aim high people.
I say ask for the Woolly Mammoth.
My Hero
It was a bad day.
It was one of those I feel invisible days.
It was one of those ” if I got sucked up into an alien space ship from Mars or burst into flames I’ll bet no one would notice” kind of days.
You know.
It has been one THOSE days.
So when I come home from work in a worse then usual mood I smell something coming from the hallway that goes into my bedroom and there I find
a bird wing
the hind quarters of something – don’t ask me what it was
a little pile of guts
And
sitting there purring his little heart out is my psycho cat
Blitzer.
He’s purring so loud his body is shaking and then he meows and climbs up my leg to my shoulder.
You know it is true…the little things that we do for each other counts for a lot.
Even if those little things attracts flies.
Go Fish!
Do you know I have never written about Monkeys?
God knows why I haven’t done it yet.
I love monkeys.
I love monkeys because they drive Creationists nuts…I mean, Dinosaurs don’t seem to bother them..but Monkeys?
They HATE monkeys.
Anyway.
I love monkeys.
And today I’m writing about them because these Scientists found some monkeys in Thailand that can fish.
Hey.
I’m willing to bet two Pez dispenser and a pack of Grape flavored Pez that those little Monkeys could do that all along.
Geeze.
It doesn’t count unless a Scientist sees it?
Wow.
Does that mean I don’t exist until a Scientist sees me?

A long-tailed macaque monkey looks for fish in a river in Lesan, East Kalimantan, Indonesia, in Sept. 2007. Long-tailed macaque monkeys have a reputation for knowing how to find food, whether it be grabbing fruit from jungle trees or snatching a banana from a startled tourist. Now, researchers say they have discovered groups of the silver-haired monkeys in Indonesia that fish.

The Panty Bandits
So.
In Colorado these two robbers wore panties ( well…Thongs to be precise ) over their faces ( well noses I guess ) in an attempt to disguise themselves during an armed robbery.
Hey, I’m surprised that a guy who would wear a panty on his face would carry a gun during an armed robbery…if I had to put a weapon into the hand of a Panty Bandit it would be one of those fake Lasar Blasters or Rifle Blasters that they use Battlestar Galactica.
But you know.
it is a brilliant plan.
( The Thong part )
If a guy was wearing a thong on his face while robbing you well…come one could you ID him?
Didn’t think so.
a.m.
Surveillance video shows two robbers wearing thongs for masks.

Trick Of The Trade
So.
You want to know what I do
when serious people
ask me
serious questions about the things I write?
I answer by writing posts about David Tennant.
Seriously.
Ha.
Take That You Whiney Little Brats!
The days of American Babies whining for what they believe is theirs
is coming to an end.
John McInsane is going to see to that.
