On the Subject of: Anybody Want a Peanut? Or a Tee??

I have a problem.

I like T-Shirts.

I cant resist a nerdy Tee. I'd do almost anything to get one. I pay up to $10, maybe even $12 on some sites. I've participated in "Grab Bags" and ended up with Tees I don't actually want just for the thrill of seeing what I would get.

I get nerdy T-shirts as gifts for my family and friends... it seems like a nice, thoughtful gift. And, really, each Tee is suited to my loved ones particular interests and taste. But there is something more sinister at work... a selfish wish to always be shopping for clever Tees.

Inspired by the upcoming First Time Film Club screening of The Princess Bride, I thought I would share some wearable art:

and, in case you want to tempt the fates... this is where I shop for Tees:

On the Subject of: A Very Strange Journey...

Rose tint my world and keep me safe from my trouble and pain...

For today's First Time Film Club screening of Rocky Horror Picture Show I have prepared some give-a-way prizes for the Newbies who come to see it for the first time today and even one for a Super Fan or two...


We've got tickets to National Comedy Theatre's Competitive Comedy Show
as well as tickets to either Spoof N Cinema: Scared to Death
or First Time Film Club presents The Princess Bride.

Today our Newbie is Mr. Bobby O'Mara and those in attendance will get to experience the movie along with his fresh eyes. He's going to laugh in places I forgot were funny, he's going to notice things I have long since taken for granted. And, love it or hate it, he is going to walk away a better person who knows how to do the time warp.

Not sure what attendance is going to be like today, I know going in that its a risk and that the Rocky Horror tends to be a bit polarizing... but its Fight Censorship Month... so fight we must!

Bad times deceased, I feel released. My confidence has increased, reality is here. The game has been disbanded, my mind has been expanded.
