dinsdag 30 september 2025 Watch MST3K: Blood Waters of Dr. Z. I didn't fall asleep! 52:37 Tom: I think I'll head over to Party Beach and see how the Horror is doing. I love callbacks to other episodes! Filmed in the St. Johns River near Green Cove Springs, Florida.
Pause on my book 107 Days after 55 Days Until the Election because... some Americans can be sooo mean and ugly. 😖
Hegseth rails against 'woke,' lays out standards in speech to top generals, admirals. Oh, boy 😑 Lyle Sass: Pete Hegseth gave a speech today at Quantico that sounded less like a defense address and more like a gladiator audition tape. He talked about masculinity the way you talk about a weapon: something forged, sharpened, unleashed. He said diversity was a form of decay. The Secretary of War is drunk on power.
I'm treating myself to some Nitzer Ebb. Join in the Chant is my favorite.

maandag 29 september 2025 Nitzer Ebb (41:20)? Crow is high on caffeine, blathering all sorts of things. Monday morning movie... MST3K: The Giant Spider Invasion. Gyspy is possessed by the mind-controlling pods. Let an evil superconsciousness swallow you whole...
My weird breakfast: Spinach & mushroom pizza with anchovies.❤️ 😋
KOIN 6 News: Protests at ICE facility escalated over the weekend. Large helicopters, believed to be federally operated, flew overhead for hours. The noise that those choppers make is on the verge of harassment.
FURIOUS Portland STRIKES BACK after Trump DECLARES WAR ON IT. I'm furious! 😡 I'm with Portland. WOW! Trump authorizes full force. We're Americans! We're so smart that we don't need a Dept. of Education. Biting, mocking, creative and satirical. Thanks!!

zondag 28 september 2025 The Terrifying INTELLIGENCE of People Who Choose to Be Alone | Arthur Schopenhauer. I can relate. What a smart guy, that Schopenhauer! Solitude is probably my best friend.
Up to the Black River Landing. I'm wondering if the river is swimmable.
Watch MST3K: Manhunt in Space. Cargo ships from the United Worlds are disappearing in space. So, Rocky and Winky must cancel their vacation to go find out what’s happening. A visit to TV Sci Fi of the early 50's. So much space! Tom Servo: Space this! Space that!

zaterdag 27 september 2025

zaterdag 27 september 2025 Yay! They're running a new marathon! MST3K: Global Oddities: (1) The Magic Voyage of Sinbad AKA Sadko. (2) Mighty Jack. (3) Secret Agent Super Dragon. Yes!! HI-KEEBA!!!
Speaking of global oddities... Sommarøy is a small, picturesque fishing island in Northern Norway where the residents live in a time-free zone. No clocks. No watches. What a concept! Peace... 🙏🏼😌
My new book: 107 Days by Kamala Harris. I'm 1/6th the way through it... Day 103. The phrase we know his type pops up... a comment made by Kamala Harris about her political opponent, Donald Trump. The former prosecutor and attorney general took on perpetrators of all kinds including predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, and cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain.
What's with all the geese on the street? They're like lawn mowers.

Call the Escalator Investigator! 😄 Trump: There was not one, not two, but three very sinister events! This was triple sabotage at the UN. 👉 Triple Sabotage At The U.N. | Biden Responds To Trump's Trolling | Hegseth: Women Can't Be Warriors. Seriously! Colbert is on FIRE  🔥
A friendly puffy cottonball cloud greets me for my bike ride.
I'm proud to be an ex-Seattlite! 💙 💚 Seahawks beat Cardinals 23-20 with last-second field goal. Today, the Mariners start a 3-game series against the Dodgers. Playoff tickets sell out after Mariners clinch AL West division title. Good luck, my M's! Tridents up!! 🔱

donderdag 25 september 2025 Telepathic aliens take control of Kirk, Dr. Ann Mulhall, and Spock's bodies in order to construct android hosts. Watch Star Trek: Return to Tomorrow. To quote Sargon: One day our minds became so powerful, we dared think of ourselves as gods.
In my opinion, James Holden is still the sexiest man in outer space.
Staying in Space... I'm excited about this new theory of the mysterious little red dots at the edge of the known universe. Real black hole suns!
Black hole sun. Won't you come? And wash away the rain. Black hole sun.

woensdag 24 september 2025 Bluey is an Australian animated television series aimed at preschool children. One was sitting in a toy bin at Meijer. He's soft and cuddly. Let's sing the Bluey Theme Song!
Trump Takes His Many Lies And Grievances To The United Nations. 🫢

dinsdag 23 september 2025 Don't you miss this Beastie Boy classic... The 2011 Make Some Noise?
Is this the proper way to do hip hop (with white boys)? Just a fr*ckin second... Yes! YES! It can be done! The Iron Curtain is DOWN! Yes, DO IT! Our heroes... Danny McBride, Seth Rogen, and Elijah Wood! Watch MST3K: Rocket Attack USA. Soft news... Very soft! Joel and the bots talk about the Charlie McCarthy Hearings. The Cold War was a rich fertile time of paranoia virulent conservatism and rampant jingoism. So... That reminds me. I need to clean the toilet bowl. QUACK! 🦆

maandag 22 september 2025

maandag 22 september 2025 For some reason, these guys came up in my feed. Brothers in Black singing Ballad of a Teenage Queen. Honestly, country music isn't my thing, but... The Seattle Seahawks steamrolled over the New Orleans Saints in a 44-13 blowout. The weather was supposed to be rainy, but it looked fine and sunny. The Seahawks can really fly!
Midnight movie: Bohemian Rhapsody. The song which sticks in my head is Somebody to Love written by lead singer Freddie Mercury. After nearly two weeks of little to no rain, severe storm chances are growing. Heavy rain and strong gusty winds are possible this evening. It's breezy but we're rain free (so far).

zondag 21 september 2025 I've Swollen and I Can't Shutup! WOW!!! Hal Sparks has fun mocking Trump's visit to the UK. It seems like King Charles is wondering when Trump's meandering speech is going to end, waiting for those precious words: And in conclusion...
With 30 musicians and singers in the streets of Paris 😍 Their version of Bohemian Rhapsody made me cry! The people are surprised when three women pop out singing... right in the middle of the Latin Quarter. Something new for my bucket list: to visit the Freddie Mercury statue in Montreux, Switzerland. It's where he lived and recorded his last Queen album. He chose Montreux for its peace and tranquility.
Mariners over Astros for 6-4 win. Another great game! Pitcher George Kirby scattered five hits across six scoreless innings and struck out seven to help the Mariners to the victory. The M's conclude the series with the Astros tonight at Daikin Park in Houston.
Bike ride to Funkytown... just to the Lorain History Society and back. Visit the bronze kids. They're nice enough to include me for Book Time.

vrijdag 19 september 2025

vrijdag 19 september 2025 It's hard to believe that Apollo 13 was released 30 years ago. Ron Howard was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert discussing the re-release of the movie in IMAX. Ron is - in my mind - that cute little red-haired boy Genius in Village of the Giants.
We Are All Jimmy Kimmel | The Easy Way Or The Hard Way | Trump Urges NBC To Cancel Fallon And Meyers. Stephen: With an autocrat, you cannot give an inch! If you give a mouse a Kimmel... We 💙 you, Jimmy.
🎶It's the new age crisis. And we will stand up in the cold. Stand up in the cold.🎶 It's Flashback Friday with Greta Van Fleet! Lavender Dream rose is a hybrid shrub rose in the Rosacea family. It was bred in the Netherlands by G. Peter Ilsink in 1984. This arching shrub grows from 4 to 8 feet tall and wide. Hello, pretty flowers.

donderdag 18 september 2025 Restless night's sleep. Early morning movie - MST3K: Track of the Moon Beast. In a rush for the Halloween season, Crow devises a bizarre practical joke to scare Mike, but he's unimpressed. A bowl of pea pods, Mike. Patrick Brantseg is Gypsy.
Harry Caray - America's favorite sportscaster - (Will Ferrell) interviews astrophysicist Kent Wahler (Jeff Goldblum) about life on Jupiter's moons, why his friends call him "Whiskers" and how he'd eat the moon if it was made of BBQ spare ribs. My favorite nonsense: I’m just a worrier, that’s why my friends call me whiskers. [Season 24, 1998] Sichuan Chili Crisp California Bowl with imitation krab. 😮 Very spicy!
Is comedy dead? Is comedy illegal because of fascism? YES!! 😧 I'm shocked today to hear that my comedy hero (truth teller) Jimmy Kimmel will be pre-empted indefinitely. My heart💔 I'm feeling that we're up to our necks in danger. America is so dysfunctional. 🇺🇸 Former CIA Director & Obama White House official John Brennan is still pushing back against our incompetent president Trump. Remember back in 2018 (7 years ago)? John Brennan: Trump Is ‘Drunk On Power’ — And Dangerous. He said These are frightening times.
Happy early Halloween from West 22nd. Cool cat! 😸 Cool spider! 🕷

And there's Metallica's Orion. Thanks Mixed Up Everything. 💜  Koobyy! One thing leads to another! Enjoy the Metallica instrumental (NO LYRICS REQUIRED) The Call of Ktulu (1983). Violin & Acoustic Guitar! Wow! This gave me chills. Good chills. WONDERFUL CHILLS! 😬   Luke Beasley... You look a little sad. I'll suffer for you. Who wants to have a broken, swollen ankle? Thanks for soldiering on.

maandag 15 september 2025 Beautiful Portland... I love you always ❤️ President Trump? What exactly is wrong with Portland? This American city has its strengths: its natural beauty, thriving food and arts scenes, lush parks and excellent public transportation. (Wow! It's pure Hell!)
Weather for Portland today: Some morning clouds giving way to generally sunny skies. Moderate ragweed pollen. AQI: 20.
