  1. Normally I do not drink--but in this case I shall make an exception. . .
  2. I always liked tuna fish and rice, myself. Tuna mixed into cream of celery soup poured over rice--I enjoyed that as a kid, and eat it every now and again today. I found some recipes for it online that call for cream of mushroom soup--I don't care for mushrooms, so if my advice means anything to you, stick with cream of celery. (My advice should mean something here. After all, I am a Mentor.)
  3. Mike Johnson And His Son Monitor Each Other's Porn Intake "You had to live--did live, from habit that became instinct--as if every sound you made was overheard, and every movement except in darkness scrutinized."--George Orwell, 1984 Make no mistake--this is what he wants for all of us. He may be doing it voluntarily, but I doubt he'd extend the privilege of choice to everyone else. You voted for Trump, this is what you voted for.
  4. “When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle."--Edmund Burke

    Happy Halloween, Everyone!
  7. The Angry Black Girl And Her Monster If you're looking for something different this Halloween, this may be it. Vicaria is a teenage scientific genius growing up in a housing project. After losing first her mother and then her brother to violence, she comes to the proposition that death is a disease--and it can be cured. Using the bodies of other victims of violence, she repairs the body of her brother, then brings it to life with a massive surge of electricity. Things get worse from there. The story may be familiar to us all, but the way it is told is quite unlike any previous telling of the tale. (The only reference to the original is the title of Vicaria's scientific journal--The Modern Prometheus.) The movie uses the story to address a wealth of current issues--the effects of poverty, gang violence, and drug use, the (deliberate?) inability of white people to comprehend the situation--Vicaria has plenty of reasons to be angry. The movie is available on Amazon Prime or elsewhere. Check it out if you get the chance.
  8. The Mask Of Fu Manchu is especially thick with pulpy goodness. This is Boris Karloff's only turn in the role, and he does quite well with it, as does Myrna Loy, who plays Fu's daughter Fah Lo See. The casual racism is thick on both sides, as Fu uses every opportunity to proclaim, "Death to the white race!" There's also a nifty scene in which Fu boils some large and exotic insects in blood to make a mind control serum. Everything you could ask for in a pulp story is right here, even if it is black and white instead of a garishly colored magazine cover. And it was made when it was considered modern day adventure, instead of decades in the past.
  9. Is it just me, or is Natalie Portman with the power of Thor really, really hot?
  10. A little surprised no one posted this sooner-- RIP Richard Roundtree
  11. The Unforgettable Buzz--a blog devoted to electric football
  12. Super Fantastics VS Super Diabolics They may look cheap, they may look weird--But I Want Them.
  13. Florida Lawmaker Who Penned "Don't Say Gay" Law Sentenced To Prison For COVID Fraud
  14. I never had one, but I do remember the commercials. By all rights, this should be in the Toys thread.
  15. "Ralph? Could I have a word with you?" "I would beg to differ as well." "Yeah, what are we? Chopped liver?" "You wouldn't say that bound by the Lasso of Truth." "RRRAAAUUGGHHH!!!" "Nuff Said!"
