ROCCO: Aw, these creeps ain't so tough. I been in worse scrapes back in Flatbush.
BILLY: Really? Did the other hoods have heat rays and flesh-stripping razors back in Flatbush?
ROCCO: Maybe they did and maybe they didn't, creep-o.
MURPH: Yeah, what's it to ya, college boy?
SARGE: Pipe down, you mugs. Try and grab a little shuteye before reveille.
MURPH: It's gonna be a rough go, fightin' those bums in the middle of the crowded city streets.
BILLY: Yeah, Sarge, why can't we just order an evacuation?
SARGE: Can't do it, kid. Doc says it would cause a panic.
ROCCO: Aw, nertz.
MURPH: That's what he said when the vampires attacked!
BILLY: And the robots.
MURPH: And the robotic vampires…
ROCCO: The werewolf gorillas…
BILLY: The gorilla werewolves..
MURPH: Actually, those were wolfen were-gorillas.
BILLY: What's the difference?
MURPH: Well, see, one is a half-intelligent man-wolf who occasionally turns into a gorilla-man, while the other is…"
SARGE: All right! That's enough out of you jaspers! We got a job to do, and we don't want to panic the citizenry on top of it.
BILLY: I think we have the most panic-resistant citizens in the world.
MURPH: No one cares what you think, egghead.
ROCCO: Brainiac.
MURPH: Gorilla werewolf sympathizer.
SARGE: Pipe down, everyone! All our people back home are counting on us to save us from the Martians or whatever they are. Think of them when you're on the front lines facing their fire beams.
BILLY: Heat rays.
SARGE: Whatever. Do it for your loved ones.
MURPH: Say, does anybody wanna see pictures of my girl back home? We're getting married the day after my tour of duty is over!
EVERYONE: NO!
Does he die? No; life is found to be extinct.
1. I got a freelance check today from a publication I long ago figured I was going to have to sue for not paying me.
2. I just lined up an interview with a very cool film director, and though I don't have a client for it, someone's gonna wanna buy this thing. I'm quite excited.
3. The government has assured me that I will be getting my economic pornography check any day now, no honestly it will, we promise.
THE BAD NEWS:
1. Apparently I was issued a parking ticket while in Seattle and they have chosen to alert me of this fact by mail. I already paid more for parking there than I had for anything else anywhere ever, and if anything, I feel like I OVERPAID for parking, but the ro-bot assures me I must pay.
2. Another minor freelance gig, not all that lucrative but interesting, fell through.
3. In what very well may be the stupidest accident ever, I got my headphones stuck in the door of my car, and I opened it to get them out but because I had my iPod in my hand I pushed the door closed when I was done with only one finger, and miscalculated the distance, resulting in my possibly having broken the ring finger on my beat-off hand. I'm actually too embarrassed to tell a doctor about this moronic accident.

Elucidate upon the theme of a game show you would create, if you were a game-show-creation specialist.

WORLD WAR Z: This is an interesting book to read, because it not only covers most of the main cities in the world, but it also covers some of the dumb ass people (Celebrities) that would do anything to survive and try to keep a Good (I use this term VERY loosely) rep. All I know is that if Zombies invaded anytime soon, I would be at Wal-Mart, here is why: THEY HAVE FUCKING EVERYTHING!!!
ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF SOLITUDE: I hated this book.....don't waste your time even though it is an Oprah book!!!!
WAR AND PEACE: It was okay I guess but I got tired of reading about war all the time
TOM JONES: The meat of the plot itself was surrounded by so much STUFF! Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!! Anyway, like I said, the plot was good--a faithful movie version (or even the Spark Notes version) would be a fun little romp, but the book itself was just too wordy!
NO ONE BELONGS HERE MORE THAN YOU: Meh.
HUCKLEBERRY FINN: Huck rocks. Tom Sawyer is annoying. but overall it is a great adventure story if you can get through Tom's constant dragging out of things to the point of annoyance!
A CLOCKWORK ORANGE: I read this in high school and I recall making a "dictionary" on notebook paper to figure out what all of the non-English words meant. I wish I still had that paper.
ATLAS SHRUGGED: Very neat.
A CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES: I guess dumbasses don't go nowhere. kinda like this book.
THE AMAZING ADVENTURES OF KAVALIER AND CLAY: Interesting, but a bit overboard on the Jewish perspective.

Well, it's not IMDB message boards, but it'll do.
And here they are, for your stealin' pleasure:
But when I count coup then I do it in pentagrams
When I'm on like LeBon I don't blame it on Rio
But I'm throwin' the horns like my name was James Dio
Ghetto boll weevil, USDA primeval
Watch my snake jump like I was Evel Knieval
Size you up like a Brannock, growin' beats so organic
'Cause I'm heated, not frosted, I'm Satanic causing panic
All my metal is heavy, break you down like a Chevy
Packin' so many arms you might think I'm a devi
But I'm straight outta Hades, and I'm hell on the ladies
And I'm bringin' more fear than a thousand Max Cadys
'Cause I'm strictly a villain, electrifyin' like Max Dillon
If you think that you're still in, come and witness a killin'
Murderous on the mic, king of codin' like Vic
I'm sayin' "welcome to hell, kid" – now do what you like
Now I'm made in America like the hydrogen bomb
If you want my statistics, go to deadsuckas.com
It takes a minute to kill, it takes a second to die
And then a lifetime in hell, your punk ass wondering why
I'm the Beast of all b-boys, rap's Aleister Crowley
When you talk no one listens, like you was Coleen Rowley
You promise me scriptures but got nothin' to say
While I'm rewriting the Bible just like Anton LaVey
I been sent as an omen, like Damien Thorn
Pullin' trim like a showman while you're downloadin' porn
Got a sting in my tail like my name was Pazuzu
I strictly will use you, leave you with a boo-boo
While you mess with your levels I'll be raising the Devil
While you're cryin' for peace you appease me like Neville
I'm the Hellstrom of hip-hop, the first seed of Satan
I'll see you in Hell for the high crime of hatin'
This is what the headline said:
TINY BODIES IN A MORGUE
And I swear to God I did not want this to happen. My brain just forced it. I had no more control over it than I do breathing. Instantly, my brain started singing:
"Make me feel happy, make me feel fine."
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.
I got a big post in me when I'm less stoned about all the ways this show went wrong. I ain't even need to wait to see which one of these failure conditions gets the big prize.
A strong feeling overwhelms me that the number of TV shows I watch on a regular basis is about to drop to two.
DO YOU PEOPLE KNOW WHAT YOU SOUND LIKE.

mrgordons.I don't know what any of this means so please don't ask me any questions about it. However, I am happy to discuss who was more awesome, the Dutchman or the Master.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you: The Destroyer Project, wherein I will read and review every single Destroyer novel ever written. Why? I have no idea. The interest in this from anyone, it would be highly flattering to call it "marginal". But I am doing it just the same.
So there. Enjoy it, if you can*.
*: You can't.
To get a clearer picture of what you, the hellbound hoi polloi think, I have provided, below the cut, translations from 15 different versions of the Bible of one of my very favorite passages. Please read them and then vote in the following poll.
