Wild Cards
Dec. 5th, 2011 09:32 am"How hard can it be to find a giant ant?" the owner, who looked like a giant caterpillar, asked.
I spent a moment picturing a Japanese monster movie version of the ant guy and the caterpillar guy battling over an empty pickle jar filled with dollar bills. It didn't quite have the panache of "Godzilla Versus the Swarm".
Yes, I am reading Melinda Snodgrass's "The Rook", from Wild Cards book "Fort Freak", which is set in New York City's Jokertown. Why do you ask?
a wrap and a few more
Dec. 5th, 2011 02:12 pmYesterday, I wrapped the presents I'm giving my wife. For her birthday, the superduper DVD set of James Cameron's "Avatar". For Christmas, a few days later, the DVD of "The Big Easy", and some Anthony Mann westerns although it's a bit of a misnomer to thus label the latter's films. 'Frontier' stories would be more accurate. But I digress. I also wrapped the present I bought that she's giving me for Christmas - the complete DVD set of Gerry Anderson's "U.F.O."
They're all under the Tree and so far Rocky the Bad Cat has shown no sign that he thinks the shiny things are there for him to play with.
