Shark Attack

Jack’s second Flash movie:

(This is a silent film, but Jack’s really into audience participation, so feel free to add your own sound effects as you watch.)

As Well It Should

Apparently Buddy Hackett screaming “NOW HERBIE! NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!” in the Disney live-action film “The Love Bug” has made into my son’s long-term quote bank.

Instant Karma

Sometime after I finally returned to West of the Rivers, between when I arrived at my apartment and when I woke up this morning, another 4 inches of snow dumped all over everything.

Drag.

Yeah, That’s Been Known to Happen

Dragonia returned to the bedroom spouting more expletives than usual, then slid open the bedroom curtain to reveal the last thing I expected to see:  a sea of thick white flakes swirling down over a beautiful snowy landscape.

“Look what you brought with you!” she shrieked.

Happy Valentines Day

“I like cheeeeeeeeeese.  And uniiiiicorns.  And baaaaaaaaaaacon…”

–Dragonia, after an extra-dirty vodka martini and half a bottle of Mumm Rosé Brut

In Other News

I’m flying out to see Dragonia for two weeks, tomorrow.  My laptop is long since blown up, so I may or may not being saying anything here for a while.  I’m sure she’ll allow me the use of her computer, but I’d rather take advantage of the opportunity for the two of us to get away from the screen for a while…

Overdue

I don’t know what the heck is up with the Shadetree Library, but it seems like every time I go there, the darn place is closed.  If it isn’t closed for the day, or not yet open, it’s closed because of budget cutbacks, or closed for a holiday,  or closed because of mandatory staff training, or closed because it’s the seventh Sunday of the New Year and the moon is waxing full.

Hey!–  State, local authorities!  The place can’t fulfill its function if it isn’t OPEN!
