I spent part of today sorting through the bloated image folders on my computer, and in the process rediscovered some old photo manips I did. I now pass a selection on to you: First we have some scenes from the highly-anticipated live action 'Super Smash Brothers' film: Gannondorf (played by Sean Bean) cuts a deal … Continue reading Some Old Gimp Pics

Fun Fact of the Day
During the filming of Rocky IV, director-star Sylvester Stallone thought it would be a good idea (for realism) to do a shot where Dolph Lundgren actually punched him as hard as he could. The next thing he knew, Stallone was spending four days in intensive care with a bruised heart. He then had to convince … Continue reading Fun Fact of the Day
Ross’s Game Dungeon Does America
For this week's Saturday entertainment, I offer the 2018 4th of July (sort of) episode of Ross's Game Dungeon, where he reviews The Crew and takes a cross-country tour of the United States. I haven't kept up on the game itself in the intervening years, nor its sequel, so I don't know what the state … Continue reading Ross’s Game Dungeon Does America

An Answer to Criticism
Trust
The Introvert and the Extrovert
A startlingly accurate image of how the former expects the latter to react:
The Mikado
I am rapidly becoming a full-bore Gilbert and Sullivan fan. Their plays are some of those works, like the writings of Shakespeare, Pope, and Dickens, that really show off the English language to its full power of rhythm, sound, and turns of meaning. As well, of course, of being set to absolutely beautiful music. I … Continue reading The Mikado
San Francisco International
On Saturdays I like to offer some form of entertainment. Sometimes it's my own fiction, other times it's bringing attention to something that I think is worth your time. For today, I'm offering one of my favorite episodes of one of my favorite shows: Mystery Science Theater 3000, episode 614: San Francisco International. This, I … Continue reading San Francisco International
