When life was more simple.
Found this photo while digging through the LLR archives for important documents. Seventeen years ago this month.
This was back when Michael Jackson was still cool, and people thought Laser Tag would someday become an Olympic sport. I was a master sharpshooter. Anything that had a laser tag sensor on it (a door, my brother, a moving dog) I could nail it. Those were the days.
Not down with the sickness.
This week the world witnessed the beheading of American, Nick Berg in retaliation for the humiliating photos of Iraqi captives. Being in the media, I have easy access to such video. But, there is no chance in hell that I could even bring myself to watch it (or even listen to it). My mom did, however. She called me up and said, "I downloaded it off the internet. I just had to see it. I don't know why...I just needed to". That's hardcore, mom.
And, in related news: Local radio schlock-jock Marconi (and his sidekick, Tiny) were fired from Portland's KNRK for playing the audio portion of the Berg beheading, while screaming and making lewd jokes. After hearing years of Marconi nonsense on the air, my first reaction was: "What took so long?" I've heard so much nasty crap on his show while flipping between stations that I knew his days were numbered. I feel kinda sorry for him, though. His career is totally wrecked. And I heard a rumor he's getting married soon...
Zombies.
As many of you know. I love zombies. Love 'em. Even made my own kick-ass zombie movie, and co-organized a zombie film festival in Portland. So, I gotta tell you when I saw the zombie screen shots for Everquest 2 - it blew my mind. As matter of fact, EVERYTHING on the EQ2 website blew my mind. I am so going to be a hot dark-elf chick cleric (again).
Here's a zombie from the current now-lame, Everquest:
And, here are zombies from Everquest 2:
Look at her! She can't even walk! That's rad.

If you like comic books and zombies - check out "The Walking Dead." The first TBP came out this week.
"I'm Rick James, bitch" I said it for the last time, so don't get mad.
"The Shining" in thirty seconds with animated bunnies.
According to 50's pulp sci-fi, we were all supposed to be wearing jet packs and getting served dinner by robot butlers by now. At least skycars still seem feasible now.
