Updates

Bobo has updated, and narrowly avoided the shame of blogroll exile.


A weight is lifted from my heart.

Bobo:
Please note how simple it is to use that astonishing new invention, THE INTERNET, to find material for BLOG updates.

Is that a lightsaber, or are you just happy to see me?

Aliens Pulse Rifle

One of my two favorite SF weapons of all time, alongside Harrison Ford's kickass pistol in Bladerunner.

For some reason Bladerunner was on PBS last night...crappy print, but it was the letterboxed director's cut. Amazing how different a film it is with the turdrageous hand-holding voiceover removed...

Exile!

Perhaps my binary threat to exile Bobo from my blogroll unless he updates was a bit hasty.

I like Ivan's idea better.
I have unilaterally promoted Ivan to the top of the heap to illustrate the gravity of my threat...nay, promise.

Further indignities will follow until I am appeased by updates!

Steve Gilliard RIP

Fuck.

The News Blog was one of my daily stops, and Steve's writing style was so direct and conversational I felt like I knew him. I'd kept tabs on his recent dire health struggles via posts from his partner Jen, but assumed he would eventually recover.

Just another weird way the internet has impacted human relationships, here I am crying and feeling like shit because some guy I never met died.

seems like I'm not the only one.
And Wolcott nails my feeling about his 'voice' much better than I did, which is why he's a highly paid writer and I work in a bookstore.
