your archie experts

[davemerrill]

Apparently writing a lot of smack about Dilton Doiley making love robots and Al Hartley's misreading of the Bible makes us Archie experts, because when top news organizations need to get expert analysis on the new gay Archie character, who they gonna call? Mister Kitty! That's right, Shain got interviewed by David Moye from AOL News and it's up there today for the whole world to acknowledge her expert knowledge on gay comic book characters and whether or not Jughead only has love for food.

Would have gone to the Meister Markt antique/collectible thing yesterday at the Markham fairgrounds, but it claimed to be over at 3 and what with the DVP closed and all, there was no way we were making it out there by 3, I've learned to be realistic about this. Hey guys, stay open an extra hour and you might make more money, I'm just saying. So we went a little further out - we're battling the traffic to get out of town, we might as well go somewhere - and picked up some junk here and there and enjoyed the out of town scenery. I don't think we're going to go nearly as far out today, for one thing I have a strip to finish, and the weather doesn't look like it's going to cooperate anyway.

"Phantom Of The Paradise" was on TVO last night, and now those songs are stuck in my head with superglue. I guess I'll have to listen to the original 'Multiplication Rock' LP I picked up yesterday.

Man, I am laughing so hard at the clear and obvious tokenism going on with this.

It's not like they're going to suddenly reveal an entire gay community, right? So the poor guy is going to have to import a boyfriend.

Not like they'll take it to the logical point of him falling in love with Archie, right?

and I don't figure Jughead for gay. Massive drug user, yes. Tweeks on speed most of the day, then mellows with some weed, that's why he can constantly eat yet still seem to be about 90 pounds...

You're right that Reggie would be the closet case...although I'd also lay money on Midge being a "beard"

The LP needs a good cleaning, something got it wet and then dried on it and now it's got a good solid chunk o' fuzz. I do like those songs though, they have held a place of honor in my skull since I was 8. 8 x 8 is 64...

Oh well, I know how you feel, and it also sucks when you get records like that too. I learn to live with that if that's the only copy I've seen in a while and just simply buy it.

Eh, it just needs some cleaning. I need to get one of those anti-static brushes, to be honest. Right now my vinyl cleaning equipment consists of a #1 nylon watercolor brush I use to clean gunk off the needle.

hehe. I still have my 'Discwasher' anti static cleaning brush and the ionization gun. Plus the anti static turntable mat. and the micro brush needle cleaner.

Whole lotta money spent on Discwasher gear when all I had was a crappy $100 JC Pennys turntable, huh? :)

(of course I got all that to help maintain and preserve my anime LPs)
