My mood has improved. I want to thank Brit for introducing me to Richard Cheese’s Lounge Against the Machine. Their version of Baby Got Back, completely made my night.
Also, I use Firefox…but I truly hate the way it fails to display my web site. It chews on my CSS, making anything in a table [font or background] just look BAD. So I was googling for some help and found a familiar LJ entry [It's Mr. Iris Print! - CEO Kellie Lynch's spouse--very sexy when he talks nerdy] and he stumbled upon a ‘Block Firefox‘ script. 0_o. I’m not going to use it, because there are no ads on my site that need protecting–but whoa. First I’ve seen that one…I’m used to seeing browser-war-bullshit-tactics, since I’ve been a member of y!Gallery for ages, enduring Snover’s jihad against Internet Explorer [the entire site is built to be completely incompatible with IE].
Speaking of cheesy…I got to blog roaming yesterday and found Stephan Rader trying to give the new Lisa Marie and Elvis charity single a chance [it went poorly] but I did manage to discover that there’s Peanut Butter & Banana Creme Reese’s Cups! I think they sell only at Graceland, but OMG, I must have them! [UPDATE: I love Ebay! -yet I'm not spending $40 on candy.]
Over at Groovy Age, where they’re covering more pulp these days [horror or not--yay!] the latest fumetti post -the theme is ‘rip-offs’- features the Dick Tracey comic Nick Tresey. Let’s just say he manages to put out a stick of dynamite with the ultimate life-saving money shot! I love old-school Italian comics! Snagged this at Zombos Closet…Hammer Films is reissuing The Hammer Story. “The Hammer Story includes almost 500 colour and black-and-white illustrations, and a foreword by Christopher Lee.” Yeah whatever…I want it for that damn cover!
I have to ask this, is Flower of Life really ‘Overlooked Manga’? I don’t think so, it’s made of superfly…but I think I know why it got Garrity’s coverage as such. Of all the Yoshinaga titles currently out there, Flower of Life has the worst cover.
It’s shame, because it’s one of my favorite books by her–but ugh, that cover for volume 1 just hurts… I love the subsequent covers for the series, specially Vol 3, but that first one annoys me. Wonder why?
Well, I have work to do – which I may seriously shuck off in favor of hanging out with Mr. Gynocrat today, since he’s back!
