New LET'S ANIME all about the panel I did at AWA all about the spooky 60s and 70s anime. There are a couple of surprising live-action adaptations in there I was previously unaware of...

Yesterday I worked on this column, and then we went out and had poutine with Dylan, who's moving way up north there, and then Donald and David came over and we watched "The People Versus George Lucas", which is a fine documentary about the nerd rage engendered by Lucas' tinkering, and then I had to haul out the VHS and we watched the Corn Pone Flicks version of Empire Strikes Back, filmed with action figures. It's amazing to think that we are much further away from the shooting of the CPF film now than we were in 1989 from the release of Empire Strikes Back, when it seemed like a time when we watched Star Wars movies in theaters was incredibly distant. What's six years? I can do six years standing on my head these days. Blink of an eye.

Afterwards I finished this week's Zero Fighter strip which, as I finish it, starts to remind me of a page I did not too long ago. I guess I'm repeating myself. I'll fix it next week though. The link is to the Mr Kitty blog which has links to both the ZF update and the update for ELEMENT OF SURPRISE. If you don't have the Mister Kitty blog RSS'd or bookmarked or tattooed on your forearms yet, you should: it won't get hacked by Russian spies the way LJ gets sometimes. We still post in the Mister Kitty LJ but after the last few service interruptions we decided to make a Mr Kitty Blogspot blog to list news and updates- that way we can throw some Google ads on there, make some $$$, and not have to worry if LJ will still be around or if LJ is throwing viruses at people.

Today, doctor's appointment. Tomorrow; another appointment. Wednesday my schedule is free and Thursday it's back to work for three twelve hour days. No more Trash Palace Friday nights for me for a while.
