My long, long, long travel over the vast Pacific has ended and I now rest lightly upon the earth of the Kiwi people. Also, international airlines are so much nicer than US airlines it really isn't funny.

Plus side, I could see the galactic rim during the flight when the clouds cleared. Nothing like thousands of miles of no light to improve your

I'm on fire.
Someone took a knife
I cannot die, no way
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
passed the stages of my age and youth
designated to save this crazy world

Through the middle of my soul
To Carthage then I came
Burning burning burning burning
And we must win, for this is our destiny.

Speak, and my eyes failed, I was ( Read more... )

I'm almost done, just a single little two hour test to go and I'm a free man. It finally hit me today that I'm actually finally done with my long travels through academia, really done. As in I could choose to never set foot in a school again if I didn't want to. Not that I'm going to do that, but it's nice to be off the hook for a while.

This Sunday at 7pm, there will be the showing of Avatar to wrap up the first half of the season. I do mean 7pm, so folks should really be here by then.

If folks could just let me know who's going to be there that'd be great.

Avatar is wrapping this part of the season up with the Day of Black Sun "movie", which means we should have one last time to meet and finish this part of the season up. I was thinking the upcoming Sunday evening might be a good time if people agree? A chance to grab some Chinese food for a meal and watch some bad-ass bending.

So, it seems that some undressed drag queens started a fight with McDonalds employees.

I really need to see if I can work this into an Unknown Armies game. Probably someone arranging a hit against Mak Attack.

Because we all need some entertaining memes in our livejournal posts.

As most of everyone who'd read this will know I have somehow made a minor quest out of plumbing the depths of horrid sci-fi/fantasy. My personal favorite targets have been David Eddings, for very good reasons and Laurell K Hamilton, for her love of massive were-penis, sexy ( Read more... )

Is a great movie. A psychedelic romp through the 60s and the deranged minds of those who lived through those times, a world where the Beatles were not a band but a weave of music that ran across the decade. It starts off slow but explodes into one of the best movies of the year. It probably helps that I am a fan of the musical genre and the Beatles ( Read more... )
