Life continues insane. Banging my head against the wall hasn’t done much good, so I’m seeing how well tearing my hair out works. Here is some frivolity to amuse you while I try to figure out how I ever got marooned on this ridiculous planet.<\/p>\n

*****<\/p>\n

Ubu speculates on sequels to various anime series<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Grenadier<\/strong>: In which Rushuna has to go into the hospital for back surgery.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the sequel to Divergence Eve<\/em><\/strong>, it’s the entire female cast.<\/p>\n

I found it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

*****<\/p>\n

Professor Mondo<\/a> has posted a couple of tunes<\/a> from his band’s forthcoming EP. You can listen to them here<\/a>. If you like ’60’s garage rock, you might find them quite listenable. I particularly recommend “Garden Girl” if you have a taste for cheesy Vox organ.<\/p>\n

*****<\/p>\n

A couple of major events come up next month.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Warren Harding<\/a>, thinking outside of his wooden box, is campaigning for President<\/a> in the 2011 elections, cleverly cutting his opponents off a year early.<\/p>\n

\u2022 You’ve heard of Plan Nine from Outer Space<\/em><\/strong>, Manos: The Hands of Fate<\/em><\/strong> and Robot Monster<\/em><\/strong>, of course, but how about King Kung Fu<\/a><\/em><\/strong>? It’s allegedly as bad as any of them<\/a>, and it was made right here in Wichita. One of my acquaintances in the SCA had a role in the movie. He refuses to discuss it. ((Another SCA friend was in Attack of the Killer Tomatoes<\/em><\/strong>. You can identify her by the paper bag over her head.)) It will be shown on the big screen<\/a>, quite possibly for the last time ever, a week from tomorrow. I probably should attend this historic event, but I’m pretty sure I have something else I need to do then.<\/p>\n

\u201cTruly, you are a frequent flyer!\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n
