Writer's Block: Space Wars
O.K. World I'm coming out of the closet. I had a massive crush on Robbie the Robot. So....there can be only two answers to this question, Forbidden Planet and Lost in Space. There! I've admitted it. I can only hope that my Analog-reading-Issac-Asminov-is-God Trekkie parents won't disown me.

Updates and things
If you think that I've been rather silent of late, well that is about to change.

Fortunately, I'm off at 2:30 so it will be still open when I get there, but the cost of gas... I'm still working out my mail. Somehow the modern world refuses ( Read more... )
