Blogger sucks.

...making it a microcosm of life!

A mangled Supernova post - "Supernova Safelist" kept appearing despite my clearing caches and going to some length to be sure that it's saved only as a draft, there to await my bothering to make the necessary fixes. It finally disappeared once I posted this snip.

This just makes it par for the course this past week has been around here.

Well, back into the silence with me.

Yeah, Blogger has been a MAJOR bitch, of late.

Sorry you've had a rough week. Hope this next one turns around for you...or at least eases up...

Haven't posted much on my ArtBlog of late, so I'd missed noticing the headaches you've been having.

Best of luck for the future...

Remembering Michael Dunn (October 20, 1934- August 30, 1973)

  American actor and singer, Michael Dunn (born Gary Neil Miller) arrived on this date in 1934 in Shattuck, Oklahoma. When he was four, his family moved to Dearborn, Michigan. Parents Jewell and Fred championed his right to live and develop openly, as part of mainstream life, defying repeated pressures from school authorities to send him to a school for disabled children.   An early reader, he was a champion speller, showed an early aptitude for the piano, and developed a lyric baritone and was given to crowd-drawing impromptu public performances even while just waiting for a bus. He ice-skated and swam in childhood, remaining a skilled swimmer throughout his life.   He attended the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, but was seriously injured on a stairwell during a "student rush" and was hospitalized for three months. Transferring to the more forgiving climate and accessible campus of the University of Miami, he seemed to excel more in extracurricular...

Omni-Adds week of October 8th

     A fairly brief nod toward t his past week's pair of additions to my library.       The fourth volume (of five) of Brubaker's Captain America run, and the all-in-one collection of Peter David's run of Captain Marvel stories, following the tale of Genis-Vell, son of (Marvel's) first Captain Marvel.       Each of these were series I only read once, as each was coming out, each with likely even less attention than I realized at the time. (Which I've been realizing again and again is true for entirely too much of my unfortunately distracted adult life.)       The Captain America volume is 928 pages, and while I recall some of the specifics it's receded to a blur in memory. The fifth volume, wrapping up Brubaker's run with the character, will be coming out within the next month or so if memory serves.       The Captain Marvel tome is 1400 pages, covering some sixty one issues, between his...

Big, hairy feet. Alka Seltzer. Visine. Adult Diapers optional, but suggested. At the Alamo Downtdown in Austin TX, yesterday they held a special event: The Hobbit Feast . Exective chef John Bullington has created a seven meal feast, one for each of the different hobbit mealtimes (1st breakfast, 2nd breakfast, elevensies, etc.), spread out over the twelve hours it takes to watch the entire middle earth trilogy. Interpreted from actual meals referenced in the books, the Hobbit Feast is the ultimate Lord of the Rings sensory experience. These seven meals accompany a screening of the three Lord of the Rings films, spaced with 30 minute breaks between them, including the credits. Okay, so this already happened, as it was a Saturday event, but maybe they'll do it again. I got very little sleep Saturday morning and ran out of time to swing by here and do any posting -- including bits of trivia such as this. I'd be a little afraid of the crowd that would show up for something like th...
