Duck Soup is not a feature-length film, is it?
---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ---------- just barely... over an hour. It is. Laurel and Hardy, though; they dabbled in short films, did they not? I think they are an untapped fountain of inspiration.

Oh, I use the nice feature of Wikipedia instead; my brain does not turn without query, otherwise I'd go nuts over-analyzing my dreams and how exactly, is it possible, that my brain synapses fire.

So, says everyone.
I wish they'd stop, though. I'm not "crazy" or "weird". Unlike the rest of you, I am actually phenomenal at the art of acting, being self-aware without actually realizing my truest potential. (the problem with that is, if you rearrange the context of the words above, any third-year sociologist can rearrange it as the exact definition of a sociopath)

I know you didn't; as most do, too.
I just over-rambulate because I don't think all that much, so I instill ponderances upon the both of us to compensate for depth. I go for volume, I guess. it's mona

Ah, I have not heard mention of that thread in over a right year, at least, it must have been.

I think I had a dream about your haikus, and then I remembered, it was only Tuesday.

I forgot until now... timing-wise, my coincidences are lagging.
for badNick... (referring to that page or two back about stars and nebulas and suches) Nibiru by Michæl Paukner Oh yeah, it’s Planet X and it’s 3,600 year orbit in our solar system. There’s a lot of subtle fear with the approaching “doomsday” of 2012. We live in a world where the economies have failed, our governments have lied to us and there seems to be little hope. This fear is based, in part, on our collective “gut feeling” that something big and bad is on the event horizon. We sense it is something much bigger than our own obvious ineptitude at running the world. We look to space for the source of this catastrophe. The interest in Planet-X was first triggered by the writings of Zecharia Sitchin, whose translations and interpretations of the oldest known civilization, the Sumerians, gave us a cosmology that included what he called “The Twelfth Planet.” Sitchin’s work with ancient texts, specifically the Enumma Elish, is brilliant. The cosmology includes an extra, as yet undiscovered planet, which is similar to the descriptions used by NASA and other researchers. This planet is in an eliptical orbit with a “year” equal to an amazing 3600 earth years. This long orbit is why the planet — called Nibiru by the ancients — has eluded observation with current telescopes and satellites. Embedded with the cosmology of the Sumerians is the description of an alien race of beings who came to our planet to mine precious minerals and who genetically altered our species. This latter bit of the tale in the Sumerian writing has caused the cosmology to be thrown out along with the aliens. But it does not negate the cosmology. The idea of a new planet being discovered in our Solar System is pretty exciting. Even more so because of the many theories about “Planet-x” or “Nibiru” being associated with space aliens and the doomsday prophecies of 2012. Scientists at places like NASA and famous observatories have deflected inquiries about the discovery for a few years now, mainly because they feared being associated with these “fringe” theories. But like it or not — it has happened. Well… according to a team of Spanish astronomers who call themselves the StarViewer Team: Spanish Astronomers Claim Dwarf Sun Beyond Pluto

Isn't Planet X supposed to destroy the Earth in 2012? I should look into it a bit more but so far I don't believe it.

a nice little fact of learning from a contact of mine, the Tutonic Tony Delgrosso:
You know that tired adage "write what you know"? It’s utter crap. Forget it. At the very least, outgrow it. Write what you want to know. Confront the questions and puzzles and secrets and I-wonder-hows and what-ifs that itch at the back of your brain late at night, and make up the answers. Just make them up. Then write the living fuck out of them.

this would be this month's first favorite
(and although it spawns to my mind a new potential topic, I'd rather not start a "Post a Panhandler" kind-of-thread, no matter how interesting a few of them may be) Vote for Kinky by Stuck in Customs
