  • I always forget how good the original Singing Detective is. #
  • @kmellon Yep. It was a BBC mini-series in the mid 80's starring Michael Gambon. It's amazing. #
  • @BrianReed Nope. Eurovision Song Contest is on instead. #

  • Thinking of reorganizing my DVD's by genre. Discuss. #
  • @jasonahurley I'd estimate somewhere in the 1200+ range. I have three giant bookcases full. #
  • I currently have two main sections, Movies and TV. Then, I have a couple shelves of over-sized box sets, and assorted genre and star sets. #
  • DVD's split into: Horror, Crime/Noir, Westerns, TV, and 'general' which includes drama, comedy, action, and etc. #
  • @neverwanderer Horror is actually Horror/Sci-Fi. #
  • @kmellon In my house, specifically, the section is both. And I dare you to prove me wrong. Brouhahahahahahahaha. #

  • Recovering from my first allergy shot in two weeks, since getting sick. #
  • Saw pea-sized hail that was localized entirely to the neighborhood we were in. #
  • Also saw Indiana Jones. I'm not really sure what everyone's complaint is. It's quite literally the best movie it could possibly be. #
  • @ramtower I love that game so much it hurts. #
  • http://tinyurl.com/585s46 #
  • Lou Reed - Live in England 1973 - Streaming for Free? The future is awesome. #
  • Warren published War comics... with Frazetta covers? Yowzers. http://dialbforblog.com/ #
  • @kmellon Everyone looks at me funny when I tell them how psyched I am to write Vampirella... you're looking at the reason why. #

  • @LordShaper They did make one. I have it hanging on my wall. #
  • @LordShaper - i'm pretty sure there's only the one. It's just a generic DC Direct actiong figure with a little mask, hat, and gas gun. #
  • @lordshaper - That's what mine is. #

  • Oooh... must find a copy of Inferno (1953) in 3-D! Color, 3-D, Film Noir. #
  • This week's release of so called Western Noirs is giving me much entertainment while hacking up a lung. #
  • Adding insult to injury, my card was over charged a couple hundred bucks by a restaurant. #
  • After spending twenty minutes reading a pointless thread on a message board, I remembered why I stopped going to them. #

  • @BrianReed tells the truth. Bloom Blox is far and away my favorite Wii game of the year. #
  • Finally! A record for people like me: http://tinyurl.com/6ngk6y #
  • @bclaymoore Consider it handicapping for my attempts to keep up with your meteoric rise to stardom. #
  • Nothing like waking up to find all of the work you did missing. Hooray! #
  • I think today is a smoking day. #
  • And, I'm back where I should've been starting for today. DAMN YOU iDISK! #
  • Quick, someone find me a theremin. #
  • Just got some Jeff Lemire pages for a Western short I wrote. They're fucking awesome. #
  • I know I've said it before, but I would do almost anything to make a living writing nothing but Westerns. #

  • Kids in the Hall was fanfuckingtastic. Go see them. #
  • Today is a catchup day, as I've been swamped on nonpaid stuff all week (from jury duty to a pilot I'm developing...) #
  • @bclaymoore You should check out the beta of Cultured Code's Things. If you have a Mac, that is. It's amazing. #
  • @JasonCopland They had a good mix of new and old, and did their legacy proud, I'd say. It was really, really great. #
  • @bclaymoore Vista made me switch. It was an expensive lesson, but well worth it. #
  • WAAAA http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5764886.html #

  • New Elvis Costello Day! Me and @bclaymoore will be indisposed. #
  • And the new Elvis Costello is pretty awesome. Probably the best since Brutal Youth. #
  • @bclaymoore It's not. Only on iTunes and Vinyl with MP3 Download. #
  • @remender is a pussy. I'm on six different allergy medicines AND weekly shots. My allergies can kick your allergies' ass. #
  • @ivan brandon it seems that @jasonaaron only posts about Chick-Fil-A. Which makes us Popeye's entrenched folk jealous. #
  • @Rantz1 I like when I call the pharmacy for refills and they keep saying, "And is this one for your wife?" "No..." "What about this one?" #
  • Have I mentioned I had an unfortunate shaving accident that's left me looking like Trotsky? #
  • "DON'T YOU LOOK AT ME!" #
  • @JasonAaron I just tell them I'm from the future. That ends all discussion. #
  • @RobLevin makes my dreams come true everyday. Or at least once a month when the checks show up. #
  • @TonyLee I'm in pretentious goatee mode. It'll grow out in a week or two... in theory. #
  • I really wish someone would hire me to write Westerns. Someone make it so. #
  • @TonyLee I said pay me, not cost me a fortune. Very different things. #
  • I bought a banjo. All of my free time is spent learning to play the hits of the 70's on it. #

  • Sleeping and then more jury duty. #
  • http://riotclitshave.com/2008.05/billstickers.jpg #
  • MEANWHILE AT THE HALL OF JUSTICE... Jury duty day 2. #
  • Ah, the drunk sobbing juror sitting next to me. Go Liberty! #
  • Someone remind me to write my rant about dissolving the current jury system. #
  • @BrianReed It'd be better than being judged by the crying drunk lady who's husband is here to talk to 'this judge.' #
  • Free at Last! Free at Last! Attica! Attica! Jury was approved the rest of us go home. #
  • The new NIN starts with what sounds like my phone vibrating on the desk. #

  • And tomorrow I have jury duty. At least I'll have hot water when I shower at 4:30 am so that I can catch the bus to the court house. #
  • Doing lettering draft for Alibi... I love @jerhaun so much. In a dirty way. #
  • So... no hot water again... the adventure continues. #
  • Sitting outside of jury duty waiting to be let in to wait some more. Civic duty! #
  • Sitting in a different place waiting to serve. Juris Prudence! #
  • We're on a 45 minute break. Justice Will Be Served!!! #
  • With the break completed, we now resume waiting for our chance to decide the future of other citizens. #
  • Lady Liberty has called. I have answered by walking down the hall to another room. #
  • Lunch break inserts a pause into jury selection. The court finds you... HUNGRY. #
  • At the LA court house they sell sandwiches like they serve justice. Cold and by the pound. #
  • I hope I don't get selected for the trial, I'm running out of cliches, and its only the first day. #
  • While justice is swift, the elevators to the 11th Floor are not. #
  • And, we're back to the people's court. #
  • The pee breaks ensure justice is seved, apparently. #
  • Less than 1/3rd of the way through jury selection and court is adjourned. #

  • Day Two with no hot water. Ice Shower you won't stop me. #
  • Extra points to the new Hulk trailer for using the theme from the 70's TV show. #
  • Beware Captain Ginger: http://tinyurl.com/5a9pp6 #
  • @BrianReed and @ramtower clearly missed the awesome of use of the "Walking away backwards with thumb up" music. #
  • Ice Water Shower, considerably more unpleasent then you'd imagine. It's like being scalded alive with ice. #
  • @NeverWanderer Hopefully we'll have hot water tomorrow, and I'll never have to do it again. Probably not, though. #
  • Catching up on Pushing Daisies... it's fucking excellent. #
  • That's a big piece of calamari. http://tinyurl.com/6m4yjs #
  • Afternoon walk... I think I'm going to get one of them Iron Man Slurpee Cups. #
  • No Iron Man Helmet cups at THREE 7 Elevens. #
