    @Fremen 's current avatar of his near twin (Billy Dee from his Star Wars day) reminded me of how well he wore that moustache as Lando. Not quite Tom Selleck worthy, but still a good look.

    Watch this movie if you're a fan of 80's cop/kung fu/dinosaur/viking movies!
    It'll change your life, and it's only thirty minutes long!

    I read "my doctor" and automatically think of Tom Baker, I take it you mean someone younger than 900 years with only one heart.

    Went out again and my doctor was at the next table again.

    Well, if I'm a lush, he's a lush.

    Just had a nice time at DC's Awesome Con 2015 :cool:


    And I behaved myself...not that way, I mean fiscally.
    Saw the stars of Starship Troopers, Jay of Jay & Silent Bob...and the female vampire owner of True Blood. (actually got into a nice conversation with her)
    But that was just a bit of time...it was more about seeing the sights, the art, the vendors...and the costumes.


    Made some connections, talked to some old-school IT mercs like me, trading war stories...and the govt. game.
    May assist the new & upcoming Museum of Science Fiction with their infrastructure and virtual setup. (and work with NASA...)
    That was very unexpected...I did not think I'd be syncing with something like that, this was supposed to be brainless and fun...but I ended up running out of business cards there.

    It's a strange world...and I'm not talking about the characters I saw there.

    Vinyl hunt was fun today.
    I've been looking for the first to Blondie albums to replace the ones I gave up when I moved down to NJ and I finally found a decent copy of Plastic Letters.
    To go with that I found Luscious Jacksons first album which is very cool.
    I also found Elton John's Madman Across the Water an album I've been hunting for quite some time.

    Still adjusting to NOT jumping out of bed and getting ready for work. I wake up and go to sleep PA, USA time as well.

    Enjoying every minute of it...I get to drink 3 cups of coffee and reading all the news my brain can suck up. :D

    OMFG!!!

    I don't know what to say...I really don't know WHAT to fuckin' say.
    What do you say, when you've seen a REAL Hitler chicken restaurant in Bangkok, using a logo KFC's Colonel Sanders, but it's Hitler instead. :eek:

    As seen on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver.
    And I've seen it all...or at least I think I have.
    And I don't even think of what I could potentially see next after this.

    Are you stalking your doctor?

    In other news- I don't care what Bruce Jenner is doing with his life. Not even slightly interested. I am puzzled how his name keeps ending up at the top of my news feed.

    Her name isn't Bruce anymore. She's Caitlyn Jenner, and it's considered bad form to refer to a post-transition person as the gender they aren't presenting as any longer, fyi.

    And before I hear the cries about the PC police from other people: these aren't PC semantics. They are people semantics. Imagine how you would feel if someone kept calling you the wrong name.
