Another Harry book milestone!


It was a year ago today, that my friend, Margaret poked me with a stick to upload the scans of my books to the Kindle store.
(As detailed in the introduction to book 3).

Course, as I explained here, there were...technical issues...and I had to forego Kindle for awhile, in favor of Createspace print editions, which, I was originally going to nervously tippy-toe up to a year later once the Kindles were selling well.

Well, I'm glad there were technical problems, Createspace uploading is actually easier, and the Kindles aren't moving, so...I might have thrown in the towel.

So, thanks, Margaret, for getting the dominoes tipping. :)

Harry's Finale (Book 4!!!)


Hut, two, three, FOUR!!


...and finally, at long last, we come to this one.

The big friggin' kahuna!

Order here!

Well, like I said last time, this one was going to come out a lot faster.
And it did, a week to the day.
I just had to dig up a Harry anniversary to justify it.

And it is!
The two month anniversary of my first completed sale!!

Tadaa!!

So....what's gone on in that...week?
Why, the completed sale of book 3!
Full circle. ;)

Also, last time, I said this one would be better than book 3.
Indeed it is!
Here's what you get!

  • Sickest, weirdest, most twisted episodes ever!!
  • S'more raunch.
  • Loads of laughs.
  • Chaos!
  • Madness!
  • THREE books worth of material! 
  • Value!!!! Price wise, it divvies up to 12 bucks a pop, which, is a SUPER bargain compared to the individual prices of books 1 & 2. Plus, a third of the shipping.
  • Issue length stories, and quickies, all run through a blender! You never know what's coming at you!
  • Stuff I got in big trouble for in school to get revenge on teachers. (PLEASE grant me my revenge!)
  • Bonus materials for the entire series, including...
  • Full color gallery of alternate covers for the original books, the lost books, and several unmade sequels.
  • Tech blueprints.
  • A map of EVERY Harryverse character! (Up until 1996)
  • A dental health poster I won a ribbon for in second grade that put the cartooning monkey on my back. The true start of it all. From that ribbon, to now, it completes the journey. :D
  • The original Harry Hembock text stories! (Described here).
  • Pretty much...EVERYTHING! 

This is it, this is the one I was chomping at the bit to release.

And, thus ends the series!

Tch...hmm, nothing left for it, but the Kindles of 3 and 4 now, I guess.

Well, enjoy, folks! :)

And now, it's real!


And, as can be seen, I wasn't kidding, it's a beast!

Not a thin read, you're getting value for your buck!

Re-sequenced Photons (Part 6)


Time to chip away at some of the slightly bigger ones...


Dicky-pedia.

Yeah, in those early days, I was giving every new chapter/segment a label.
That's...when I didn't have many, and needed to grow the list.
Now...not so much.

Anyhoo, the arguments at RD.net were getting so repetitive, I made this to have literal push-button access to the easiest takedowns of the drivel I was having to answer...and then I hardly ever found use for it, and drifted away from the site when the modship got heavy handed, and the format went crappy.
Eh, well, it's fun to have...
Now, a lot of these at first glance might just seem like snotty insult, but if you follow around the "see also", links, like a "Choose Your Own Adventure", they all lead back to Faith, or Supernatural, and those are pretty fucking bulletproof, and (IMO) justifies the snark in the other ones.
And even Faith, and Supernatural lead back into each other.
If you follow the loop around enough times, you do see there's no wiggle room, every single little "yeah, but what about...", is covered if you go through it enough.

I deliberately constructed the thing like an argument machine
I planned it pretty meticulously.
I've always been rather proud of it.

Tch...d'ohhh, and then I did these shit "sequels", to try to tie into the stupid "Podsville/Shrieks/ Feesh", concept I was obsessed with at the time.
(I'll tear into that shit when I get to it)
No, these don't have the same inspiration, they're just spittle.

So, that's those.
Fuck, like "Slogan series", this will fuck up a bunch of posts, I've got it linked all over the place....

Re-sequenced Photons (Part 5)

All right, this seems to be working...

Before, the label list wouldn't even fit into a single screencap...


...but, with Jokes, Doc, Audio, and Slogan series gone, it fits (tightly) into a screengrab....


....and, with Innerspace gone...


....you can see it all with elbow room.

So, up next.....

Self-esteem.

Eh, I dunno, unlike most of Innerspace, some actual good moments sprinkled in here....but, still writing my way out of depression.
I won't take back that there's a lot of American dick-waving bullshit culture around how this is all handled though.


I think it really all comes down to...these are all just fucking feelings, but America treats them like THINGS out there in the world to be bought with success.

There, see, I didn't have to write those long ass rambles.

Then, I threw a bunch of other annoying junk in....


Aaand, there.

Re-sequenced Photons (Part 4)


Oh...one more for tonight...

...I GOTTA do this one...

Inner-space.

With the exception of 1, 2, 3, (especially 3!), and mmmaaaybe 4....I hate this one's fucking guts.

But,...I already tore it a new asshole in "the crumple shit".
In fact, read that instead of these.
I beg you.

There is no stopping "King Kong", Mike, humans are fucking dumb.
There's no cure.
The end.
End of fucking "series".
Krikey.

Doesn't mean give up, but we're stuck with evil and stupid.
We'll always have 'em to fight.

Now *goes to post editor* DIE! DIE! DIIEE!!

Re-sequenced Photons (Part 3)


Eh, let's just keep going...

Oh! For SURE...

Slogan series

This series of rants was pretty much the seeds that Shmegalamonga  grew from.

I needed the label to keep it handy for awhile....but now, not so much.
Shit, killing this will screw up a bunch of old posts, I'm sure, I've got it everywhere...but...dammit, I gotta clean this stuff out, and something has to go.
Well, I'll fix old posts as I casually find them...

Ohhh, that's right, there were also these crummy sequels...


Read More......

Re-sequenced Photons (Part 2)


So, picking up from yesterday...

Let's keep hacking away here...

Ah, yes, definitely...

Audio

This category reeeaally has to go, since the entries are flat out DEAD, and, I've wanted to flat out wipe it out...but...I've got some nice comments on there, and, I don't wanna lose the memories of those good times, so...I'll just kill the category, and compile it here.


*Siiiiiigh* looking at these, 1.) I gotta find the right software to get some of these Youtubed back up like I said I would three fuggin' years ago 2.) man, I gotta get back to stuff like "little red cars", and not the crummy navel-gazing, and political crap I got wrapped up in in those middle years.

Sometimes, you've gotta see it to see it.....

Re-sequenced Photons (part 1)


Or, Radical Overhaul: The Sequel.



All right, I got way too many Labels going on down there...


...and it's been bugging me in the back of my mind to fix it up for awhile now.

But...it's gonna be a laborious chore, so, I've been putting it off.

Well, nothing else to do for awhile, may as well get this over and done with.

Let's chip away at the easy ones first...

Jokes.

Ehh, strangely, never found too much use for this one...
Plus, most (if not all) of this is compiled elsewhere, and doesn't need  a label with 9 entries to place-hold it.


Doc

Ugh, I had big plans for this that sorta dissolved, maybe I'll get back to this character, but for now...does it need its own section?
I think not....



That's enough for now...now, to go kill those labels..

On "Atheism Plus".


Short version, it's a load of sanctimonious horseshit.

...man, I keep thinking I'm done with this shit, and then something else stupid happens...

Picking up from this post just about 3 weeks ago...

So, not only have the Freethought-Blogs/Skepchicks bunch started acting like a cult, they've essentially declared themselves a cult.

So, here's where the dumb idea was shat out...

Is God A Squirrel's commentary.

And, here's where Richard Carrier got taken over by the Body Snatcher pods, and became its Pat Robertson.

Is God A Squirrel again. (I think I have a crush).

My buddy, Philip, also covered this nightmare moment in history.

So, the short and sweet of it is, the FTB/SC bunch want to be considered "the third wave", of atheism, (the first being David Hume, Bertrand Russel, etc, the second being Dawkins, Dennet, Hitchens, Harris).

Why is this "third wave", necessary?
Too many old white guys, not enough, you guessed it, militant feminists.

Also, Carrier says (but so do his cohorts) that, well, if you're not with them, you're against them.
That, if you don't join their rotten club, then you must be anti-feminist, pro-racist, pro-homophobia, etc, etc.

Um, well, fuck you, Richard Carrier.
With a red rubber dick.

To reiterate what I said last time...

Puritanism, and commandments, are for religions.
Kinda why I booted that junk out of my life in the first place.


No one died, and made you Pope of fuckin' atheism, Carrier.

Also, this "with us or against us", bullshit didn't fly when it sharted out of Dubya Bush's pie-hole.
Fascinating that you lot have gleefully taken on the rhetoric of that nightmare clique of chuckle-heads.

When do the armbands get passed out, eh?


Let me make it clear, I DO believe in equal rights for everyone.

I just don't want to join your awful club.
It's full of shitty people who've behaved disgustingly, I want no part of them.

And, I don't want to, nor do I have to, answer to you.

Why?
You're an asshole, Richard Carrier.
I don't hang out with assholes, it's really that simple.

And the rest of you lot?
Fuck you, fuck your whining, fuck your tears, fuck your drama, fuck your fevered egos, fuck your middle-class privilege, fuck your entitlement, and fuck your first-world problems.

Tarzan yell about "feminism", when you're shoveling money towards female driving instructors in Afghanistan, or something.

Stuffing your own wallets with ad-click revenue isn't the same thing.

Harry Hembock Regurgitations (Book 3!!)


And a one, and a two, and a THREE!!!


Ahhhh, FINALLY! We get to this one!

That month wait took forever!
Yep, second month anniversary of book 1, one month anniversary of book 2, so, here we are again!

So, let's cut through the BS, and get right to it....

Order here!

Aaand, that's released!

Now, I can recap.
What went on since the release of book 2...


Not bad, for a month that seemingly went by like molasses...

Now, on to what you'll get outta this book....

  • Sick, weird, and funny episodes like last time, but also...
  • RAUNCHIER adventures! Definitely not kid approved.
  • Seriously, think "Behind The Green Door", and then the 3 Stooges show up and start a pie fight.
  • Literally two books for....less than the price of two. Plus, only half the shipping.
  • Complete issue-length storylines, in amongst the quickie episodes.
  • Some color pages, but not as episodes.
  • The excitement of not only having the Harry Hembock threequel, but being over the hump! :-)

And book 4 will be even better!! (8-D

And on that score...yeah, a month kills me to wait out, so...book 4 is gonna come out a lot faster.
I want this project done within summertime.
So, keep eyes peeled for that.

Got all four books up there, the blog profile cartoon as a test image (I'll fix it later), and an RSS stream of my blog updates.

Gotta mention, go ahead, and check out the previews there, but...please, order my print books from Createspace.
(Here and here)

It's the exact same price for you, but, I get pennies for royalties for some reason if it's through Amazon.
Don't screw me, mkay?

Happy 24th anniversary ANOES 4!!


Theeere we go, now I'm back on schedule with these....


The Freddy reviews again.

I remember when this was brand new on VHS just by closing my eyes.
It's right there.
And I wanted it as much as...well, Fortress Maximus.

At least I ultimately got Freddy 4.

Ah, well, Maxie would've ended up in the cellar, and Freddy has given many more years of enjoyment.

Here's the songs....

Nightmare/I want your hands on me.

80's-riffic!


Oh, and also, only by way of being completist, this is the 3rd anniversary of Freddy vs Jason vs Ash: Nightmare Warriors.


My review summary: it's terrible.

Sources conflict over whether the series started on this date, or if the 3rd issue came out.
But...where it's terrible, I'm not going to bend over backwards.

Aaand....that's that.

Happy 55th birthday, Denis Leary!


Holy crap, I remember when he was my age ranting on MTV....


And, oh, crap, I shoulda thrown him into my comedy influences chunk of the thanks on book 1...

Ah, well, this can be that.

Thanks, Denis.
There.

*Looks over his filmography*

Kiddie flick, bomb, kiddie flick, bomb....

Ah, Demolition Man!!!
There we go!


If he never does another cool flick again, this is good enough.

If you managed to miss out on this one..what the hell are you waiting for?

But, his drought of filmic awesome is more than made up for with...

Rescue Me!!



Man, did that show ever help get me through the 00's.

Soon as the seasons of those get a bit cheaper, I'm gonna get 'em, promise.

Oh, it wasn't perfect, there were a lot of clunker episodes, and a couple clunker seasons, and it went off the rails when Denis's character was just running around fuckin' everybody.
Got kind of ridiculous.

But, compared to the other shit that was on, it was the best show on TV; that's right critics, you can cram "The Shield", and "Nip/Tuck", sideways.

Oh, okay, "The Shield", was all right, I just never got into it.

Now, we've got "The Walking Dead", and "Breaking Bad", and there was "House", and those reruns will be on forever, but yeah, for the fuggin' Bush years, it was "Rescue Me".

For me, anyway.

Hey...that's right....where are the "Rescue Me", rerun marathons?
They do "House", and "NCIS", all fuckin' weekend.
Ditto "Law And Order: Rape".

Huh...bastids...

Whelp, gotta get them DVDs, huh?

So, that's my rambling reminiscence of "Rescue Me".

Favorite standup special?
Hmmm...."No Cure For Cancer", I guess.

What else?

Here's "Merry Fuckin' Christmas".

And here's "Asshole".



So, that's it, happy 55th, Denis.

Shit, his 35 to 55 went by like nothin' I'll be there soon enough...damn...

Wow, 3 years ago I did those? Literally seems like yesterday.
Well, since then, Borders has turned into Books-A-Million, and, you hardly notice the change.

Was hoping Bull Moose would get it, but meh, either way.

Damn, 3 years, I gotta get back to doing those...I really enjoyed 'em.

So, that's my official beginnings at attempting to publish.

So, first, here's the book....


And now, to echo the print edition, here's what you'll get...
  • The same sicker/weirder/funnier episodes as the print edition.
  • Cheaper price....than the print edition. ;)
  • 2 special episodes in color. .....if you view the file on a Kindle Fire, I-Pad, or other such device, otherwise, not so much.
  • The excitement of having in your cyber-possession the first digital Harry Hembock sequel!
Enjoy!

Also, also, happy belated 23rd anniversary, ANOES 5


August 11th was that.
(Still on the Harry art)


Yeah, "Dream Child", is the least good of the bunch, many say it flat out sucks, but...I've decided to commemorate all of 'em.
In for a penny, in for a pound, right?

Happy 9th Freddy vs. Jason day!!!


Ahhh, finally, it's here!!



So, wow, lot went on since the last one.

Compiling all the Freddy related stuff for that one led me to do "I love the Freddys", which spun out into the whole Halloween horror review fest, which expanded out into Thanksgiving, and Christmas, which expanded out into "En-Mike-Lopedia".

So, I got a lot of miles out of that, and now we're back here, full circle.

I dunno, while year 8 was an okay homage,  looking back, I always felt like it was sorta thrown together.

So, let's do it up right this time.

So, here again is my memory of seeing it at the theater in 2003.


Freddy Vs. Jason

I've talked about this one a lot...

You can tell it's one of my favorite fucking movies, huh?
Not much more to say about it that I haven't already.

Um...the Robert Englund commentary is good.
He makes up for lost time for not being in the other commentaries, there's trivia of all 8 flicks squeezed in there.
Yep, this one's a treasure.

I went by myself to see this at the theater, and I was so jazzed by it, I was practically high, and the drive home felt like riding a fucking cloud.
I remember it literally like it was yesterday.
Every time I fire up the DVD, I'm right there again.

Also, this came out a year short of the 20th anniversary of the first "Nightmare".
The 10th got "New Nightmare", and "Never Sleep Again", came out a year late for the 25th.

Wonder if there'll be anything for the 30th...
Hope so..
S'only 3 years away now 'y'know.

When I die, cremate me, mix me with plastic, press me out into a DVD, and burn this flick onto me.
Do me up with a nice label and case too.

Although, now, it'd probably be a DVD-ROM of Harry Hembock, and my future works.
Squeeze an AVI rip of FvJ on there if ya can...


Here's a re-creation kinda sorta, of that experience...





My favorite part starts at 34 seconds in!
The train of pain!

YEAH!!!!

Now, end credits!!




*Hops up and down in imaginary flashback of theater*

ROAARR!! ROOAAR!! ROOOOOAARR!!!!!!!!





*Headbangs almost to the point of shaken-baby syndrome*

...and Ill Nino's "how can I live", was there too...

Um, what else?


Oh, yeah, this....



Also, for the first time, the famous (in fan circles) Peter Briggs draft of Freddy vs. Jason.
(From the period where we thought the project had died, and this was all we were getting)


And...that's it.
That pretty much encompasses the whole saga of my wait for the flick, and it delivering.
(Although the Briggs version would have been interesting too..)

Damn...what am I gonna do for the 10th anniversary?

Tuesday, August 14, 2012

On this day in the past, August 14th.


Okay, like last time, another time killer....

2011-

Nothing.

2010-

Nothing

2009-

Nothing.

2008-

More from the good old days.

Well, let's repost those, and see what buried treasures we've got....

The smell of Krazyfool.

Smells have the ability to effect mood.

The perfume industry is based on this notion.

Some smells can even make you high.

Like permanent ink marker inhaled for a good minute or two.
MMMMM.

Gasoline stinks pretty good.

Reformulated gasoline really stinks all chemically.
You just know that shit's more poison than the regular stuff.

Y'ever get one of those clear super bounce balls out of a quarter vending machine as a kid?

That's what reformulated gas smells like, the stink of clear superballs.

Play-Doh, oh MAN does that shit stink good!

I don't know why they have never made a Play-Doh perfume or air freshener.
I guess Play-Doh guards that secret dearly.

Play-Doh gives me a rush.
I take a good hard snort of that, I'm floating on a cloud of bliss.

You could passify rioting protesters by cropdusting Play-doh smell on 'em.

Every smell gives me another mood.

Y'wanna know how I smell, and see the world through the mood I see it through?

Okay, first get anti-bacterial Dial bar soap.
Specifically, the "spring rain", scent.

Bath with it vigorously.
Wash your hands compulsivly with it.
Afterward, sniff your hands.
Don't be embarrased, snort your palms like a bloodhound.
That shit's a real good stink.
Nice and clean, gives you an "ahhhhh", feeling.

Okay, now the next ingredient.
Get old spice high endurance deoderant.
The green "pure sport", kind.

Now, don't just rub it on your armpits like normal SMEAR that shit on!

Ten strokes a pit! That's the secret.
Get good and sticky.
Then put your shirt on and rub it in.
Poke your fingers up in your pits good and sniff 'em after.
If you've got a hang up about doing weird shit like that, just don't get caught.
Do what I tell you! 
Sniff your goddamn fingers!
Good ain't it?
'Specially mixed with the spring rain soap.
Now cross your arms behind your head and let your pits potpurri the air for a bit.
The high should kick in in about half an hour.

Not really a trippy state, just colors seem brighter, air seems fresher, and sitcoms seem funnier.

I've gone through many soaps and deoderants to find this combination.

Reaction to your personal body chemistry may vary.

Like I said, I've made scent sniffing a little side study of mine.
I'm quite sure the spring rain all sport combo is the way to go.

Sure, there are more mouth watering smells to be had like potpurri sprays and incense and shit, but that stuff is strong and cloying.
I find it actually overstimulates to the point of a kind of logieness.

Clean smells are more relaxing.

Spring rain, all sport.

Trust me.


Yeah, Old Spice All Sport is still my stink-crayon of choice, but I haven't seen "Spring Rain", around in a helluva while....


My goodbye to Ryan's Realm.

Well, I know how much you love my brand of irreverent humor and my velvet smooth singing voice, but all good things must come to an end. That's right I've got to be moving along. No, don't cry, it'll just make this harder.
I'm going to ..Califorina..yeah, that's it California to study...computer..technical..scientific..computer............SCIENCE! 
Yeah, that's it, computer technical scientific computer science. 
In California yet.

Yep, I'm gonna settle down and be a good little boy and wear a tie and do my homework and study computer technical scientific computer science. 
Yeah that's it, that's the ticket.
I'll be all responsible and mature like. 
What with my computer technical scientific computer science degree I'm sure to aquire with all my studying and tie wearing.

Someday, you may be out in California and see a respectable responsible computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist lighting his cigar with a wad of $100 bills, and you'll say to yourself "holy crap! I think that respectable responsible computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist who's lighting his cigar with a wad of $100 bills is Krazyfool!".
Maybe you'll walk up to that respectable responsible computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist who's lighting his cigar with a wad of $100 bills, and ask "are you my childhood hero Krazyfool?", and maybe, just maybe, I'll call my gang of hired goons to beat the shinola out of you. 
Because, after all, I'm a respectable responsible computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist with respectable responsibilities, and I can't be doing frivolous immature things like reminiscing with Ryans.
Maybe you'll look up from the pavement as I walk off to my hovercar whilst one of my goons keeps step, refilling my martini from a tumbler. 
You'll say to yourself "what a respectable responsible computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist with respectable responsibilities he's become, If only my life could be as respectable and responsible and computer technical scientific computer science oriented as his, in California even". 

Maybe you'll even shed a tear of admiration and think to yourself "gee, he wasn't such a bad dude way back when, If only I hadn't flamed him".
Maybe I'll wave goodbye with a warm smile on my face as my hovercar's engines blow your hairpiece out into the street.
As I sit in my hover car being orally pleasured by a $50,000 whore, I'll think of all the good times I had with my message board pals, and how they saw through my psychotic rages and clinically depressed funks to the lovable marshmallowy piglety creature beneath. 
I'll remember all the happier more innocent times, of 33K modems, of Billdudes, of Wubbs, of Minions, $Legion$s and all the other denizens of the cyberplayland of my youth. 
As my hover car speeds me towards my respectable responsibilities at the computer technical scientific computer science technical building, I'll remember all the laughs we shared, the songs we sang, the 3DFX games I refused to buy because of my thrifty nature, and all the things I managed to frame };-)Legion's(-:{ name with. 
Then, the hover car will pull up to the computer technical scientific computer science technical building. I'll ejaculate on the $50,000 hooker's face, write her a personal check, and saunter up to the computer technical scientific computer science technical building to perform my computer technical scientific computer science technical responsible responsibilities.

Or, maybe I'll just become a leech off the system with an elaborate insurance scam so I can stay home all day and watch gameshows.

Ouch! My kidneys! My kidneys! I'll sue!! I'll sue you for all you're worth you lousy rotten computer technical scientific computer science technical specialist who's lighting his cigar with a wad of $100 bills!!!

Well, either way, good bye, god bless, smack Billdude upside the head for me when he gets too out of line.

Happy trails.

Sayonara.


Internetz srs bznz, gais!! 8-P



An assault on starving children.

Starving children ads.

When those sad, soulful, puppy dog eyes of those sickly little foreign kids look up at me from the TV seeming to say "please help me, I'm so hungry, all it would take is pennies a day to feed and clothe, and educate me", I immediately respond....with NO!!! 

I don't WANT TO!!! 

I'm BAD!!!

Same goes for disaster relief, Jerry's kids, PBS drives, school shooting funds, wearing aids ribbons, wearing armbands, helping old ladies across the street, opening doors for the blind, not laughing at guys with metal voice boxes, not parking vertically across two handicapped spots, not doing 80 in residential areas across crosswalks in school zones, or any other namby pamby crap I'm "supposed", to "want", to "do", for my "fellow man".

What have they done for me lately? 
El zilcho, THAT'S what!! 
Where was a Jerry's kid when I was lying in a bloody heap covered in splintery lumber, nails, and chunks of cinderblock when I fell into that open bulkhead when my house was being built?

Nowhere for miles, THAT'S where.

Where was a starving Zimbabwe child when I cracked my collarbone that one time?
They were obviously where everyone else who didn't hear my shrieks of agony were.
Nowhere to be found.

I've had to drag my own carcass out of every goddamn bit of trouble I've been in metaphorically and physically.

"EEEEW, help us pweeese?", fuck you! You weren't there for me, I'm sure as HELL not lifting a finger for you little mocha colored bastards!!!

Let's see the fucking Ethiopians do a "we are the world", for our fucking drought!!!

Hmm, don't see it do you?

The silence is deafening.

Fuck the world!! Let it bail itself out. 
I've got TV to watch!!!

What can I say, I was bitten on the neck by a bat that was bitten by Denis Leary....

Well, there, there's your laughs for the day.
You weren't malnourished.
*Head pat*

Oh, and while I've got your ear...

...on the topic of The Olympics...

..apparently, The Spice Girls one-time re-united for the closing ceremony.


Man, that takes me back....

Rewind the old mind-machine to well, back to 1996, same year as Izzy, weird....


Remember who they started knocking off the charts?


Yep, Marilyn Manson.

Bubblegum came back, and MTV pretty much threw him under the bus.

It's all these years later, and I finally see it in the proper context.

In '96 , I scoffed at Manson, inwardly ridiculed his fandom, and couldn't wait for what he represented to blow over in the zeitgeist.

Then, Spice girls led to Britney, led to more Disney-spawned Britney clones than I can count anymore, led to American Idol, led to American Idol clones, with Britney judging one of them, and...things have never been the same.

I owe the man an apology.

I see now, he was a superhero trying to save us all from what came after....

...except, he lost the fight.

Maybe..maybe if I'd believed in him more....

Don't make my mistake, children...

...learn from me. : (

I'm sorry...I'm so sorry.....:,(

He knew, and I didn't listen....

Oh, yeah....


...notice I didn't talk about the Olympics?

Yeah, good eye there.

What, I gotta actually go through the motions, and say it?
I'm a nerd, screw sports.
They're boring.

That guy's the mascot, right?
What, '96 you say?
Wow...
Anyway, those happened.

On this day in the past, August 12th.


Something to fill the slow days when my big project posts are taking too long to ferment, and the deadlines for calendar-sensitive goodies are too painful to wait out.


2011-

"Trek Nation", William Shatner's "The Captains", and "Invaluable", were in gestation.

"Trek Nation", was *wavey hand* ehhhh.
Good if you're a new fan, long-timers who've read up have heard all of this stuff.

"The Captains",..ehh...worth one watch, and then you're done.
Best part is Avery Brooks acting wacky.

Still no hide-nor-hair yet of "Invaluable".

Also, the Republican party had so many closet cases, it stopped being funny, and became a "set your watch by it", kind of thing.


2010-

Nothing today, but on the 4th, I'd juuust wrapped up NLHH: Dark Designs.


2009-

Nothing today, but on the 11th, I told the "redneck corner", story.

2008-

Harry beat the Bishop!

Some horror based motivationals.


These are quotes that always made me happy, and acted as a pick-me-up, so, I thought, maybe they would effect other people similarly.

Or...maybe I'm just fuckin' nuts. :-P

Got three of 'em up, with more planned, so...

Books.

Harry Hembock Classics (the KINDLE book!)


Finally!!
I did it!!!


I tried to upload this sucker long before the print edition.

But, Amazon's conversion screwed it all up, and I had to tear it down, and skip right to the Createspace edition.

Well, I finally solved the friggin' problem, and here it is.

Jeez, it still kept the original upload date of June 17th.
That's kinda dumb...
Whatever.

So...here it is.

Order now.

Hey, I know, for the anniversary, I'll put out the Kindle of part 2 on the 17th!
Howzat?

Grand Unification Theory (Part 10)


Damn, this one really dragged out on me.
Was hoping I could hammer it out in like, 3-4 entries, and it's been, what, 13?
Somethin' like that...

Eh, it always happens, I should expect it.

Anyhoo, now, the recap.

From the opening of part 1....

Here's a bit of geekiness I simply have to get out of my system once and for all, and then we can move on.

Okay, so I did up a list of all those damned crossovers, and tried to puzzle-piece them all together, right?

Well, let's see if I can't break it all down further with some techno-babble, and then, break down the techno-babble.

Sort of like how I did with "Star Trek Tech: Quantum Resolution Is Bullshit".

So...if that one made your eyes glaze over, you might wanna bail on this series of posts.


So, item by item...

Here's a bit of geekiness I simply have to get out of my system once and for all...

Done!

Well, let's see if I can't break it all down further with some techno-babble...

Done!
(1, 1.52, 2.53, 4, 5, 5.5,  6, 7, 8...)

...and then, break down the techno-babble.

Done!
(...and, 9)

Sort of like how I did with "Star Trek Tech: Quantum Resolution Is Bullshit".

Ohhh, YES...

So...if that one made your eyes glaze over...

Boy, did it....

...you might wanna bail on this series of posts.

If you're still here...fucking wow.

...and then we can move on.

LET'S! :D

Mission accomplished!

Grand Unification Theory (Part 9)


Okay, in the home stretch on these....

Well, I broke all this SF/fantasy stuff down to the Trek laws of pseudo-science, and all of that down to subspace, and subspace-tech down to wormholes.

Whyell...here's where that all breaks down.

The bit (from part 1) where I described subspace as being akin to a dimension with zero spatial dimensions?

Well...something like that would...have zero mass, wouldn't it?
But...we've got things in our reality with no mass.
They're called photons.
Particles of average ordinary household light.

Light can't open wormholes, or rev up a warp drive, can it?
Else, it'd be happening all over the place.
Normal life would look like Voyager's "anomaly of the week", horseshit.

So, the whole deal collapses in on itself right there.

The only thing that maayyybe rescues all of this from the "bullshit", bin, is...if it's happening in something akin to "The Matrix".
(See also, my Matrix-y digression in "Let's fast-forward")

Then, by Gameshark-ing the simulation, you can make any old bullshit happen that you want.
And you can call it whatever you want, "magic", even.

So, all we gotta do, is find a character in the inter-connected fiction-verse, who knows he's in a simulation.

And, there is one.

Ambush Bug!
(And yeah, Deadpool is another one too).

So, there you go, even ultra-canon says all of this stuff exists in the grand unified universe of our combined imaginations.

Which...I essentially already broke down here, here, and here.


Aaand, that takes care of that.
Add Ambush Bug to the cosmic avatars of the universe along with Sonic The Hedgehog, and Daffy Duck.
Which...is perfect, when you think of it.

Up next: a recap, and loop back to the first one.

I had it right about "movements", two years ago.


Here's the old Podsville post about "movements".

I clearly was talking about The Tea Party and Glenn Beck at the time, but since then, Occupy Wall Street came along, and failed miserably, and left behind nothing in their wake but mounds of hippie feces, and b.o., and a cloud of Patchouli scented entitlement.

And, Nazi-book-burners in feminist clothing have fucked up the atheist movement.

The shoe fits them all too.

I should have listened to myself.

Fuck movements, I'm done.
No matter how well intended the origins, some minority group of shit-snowmen wrapped in human clothing (thanks for that one, Uncle Albert) always comes along, and takes it to the armbands and boots phase.

And y'know, for a brief moment, I actually said to myself these assholes were "ruining atheism", my mind actually went there, and then I caught myself, and reminded myself, atheism can't be ruined.

Atheism can never be ruined.
It's the absence of belief in Gods.
Dead stop, the end, period.

It  doesn't put you on the hook for anything else.
That's the beauty of it.

If a group of people who happen to be atheists want to be shitty ideologues, then, they're just shitty ideologues, and to fuck with 'em.
Who gives a fuck whether or not they have an imaginary friend or not?
The ideologue part spoils the whole deal.

So, bye bye, "atheist movement".

I'll continue to not believe in God, and whenever appropriate, rant against creationism in schools, and institutionalized homophobic bigotry, and Catholic kiddie diddlery, and Muslim misogyny, and all of that.

I'm not on the hook for those things, but my conscience tells me to.

But paying dues to some club, wearing symbols, following rules, being brainwashed to hate my own cock, and being fearful of being caught visually enjoying some juicy tits, fuck all of that.

I'm not doing that.
Kiss my ass.

Puritanism, and commandments, are for religions.
Kinda why I booted that junk out of my life in the first place.

Grand Unification Theory (Part 5.5)



One more leftover piece....

And a super-quick one.

Metahuman powers.
(Superpowers to you lay-people)

A mad-science version of magic, and magic is tech.
Easy.

Course, technology imitates nature, so..maybe future-tech was reverse-engineered off of metahuman ability...

Especially, when you look at the timeline of progression...

Aaand, that's that one.
