Oh man... Try to write a story -- using only six words. The idea (and lots of great ones) is here: http://wired.com/wired/archive/14.11/sixwords.html My favorite: Leia: "Baby's yours." Luke: "Bad news…" - Steven Meretzky And suddenly way too many slash things are crowding my head... "Neal fucks Steve. Steve goes emo." ...which is 90% of all … Continue reading In six worlds, the word ends.

You know you've totally blown someone away when all they do is repeat, "I can't believe you did this. I can't believe you did this. I can't believe you spent that kind of money on me." Which has been Brett's reaction to his new Mac for the past TWO DAYS. YES, Loved HusBun, you are … Continue reading In the interests of Aliens, Cats, and decaf coffee…

oh my god, I got Brett a new iMac for his birthday. He was on one of the old G4 Cubes (and it blows my mind, that a computer that's only 6 years old is "old"). We upgraded him today to one of the new Intel iMacs. Faster, sleeker -- looks just like my G5 … Continue reading ..the greatest of the sadists and the masochists too…

Yup. Complete & utter format change for this LJ. WOOT! Call this a sample of the changes coming to the Shrine in the very near future. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Let me know if there's any problems in your various Windows browsers; it looks just fine on my end.

Oh, WOOT WOOT WOOT!! I LOVE DREAMWEAVER!! I finally got a workable interface for the UASSUHO section. A real, workable interface that WORKS & looks THE SAME in Windows IE, Safari, & Mozilla Firefox. And is MEGA-easy to update for new strips. WOOT WOOT WOOT!! I keep finding out little tricks in Dreamweaver that just … Continue reading Of Muppets, Journey-Men, & Dreamweaving…

One-liner seen in a magazine critiquing "Supernatural", guaranteed to get Barb to comment here: "Supernatural -- live-action Scooby-Doo without the dog." (not that I watch the show, but Someone Has To Tease Barb About Her Obsession.) The New Shrine is chugging along. I'm still struggling with the new Sacred Pagan Grove of Steve Perry and … Continue reading On The Curious Case of Crazed Effalumps and Woozels…

Just got back in from Gatlingburg, TN, from a much needed extended-weekend-break away with my husband. MUCH much needed. Especially in a little hotel tucked away on the wooded mountainside, with a king-size bed, Jacuzzi, and fireplace. RAWR POUNCE pounce pounce BOINGY BOINGY BOINGY. But...just like LAST year...I twisted my freakin' right knee AGAIN, coming … Continue reading Wow.

...and the world, and the stars, and whatever lies beyond our tiny little planet: The Yahoo Time Capsule They are going to digitize all the contributions, then beam them with a laser into space in the hopes of reaching other civilizations, out there, somewhere. I can't think of a better way to live forever, than … Continue reading Be a part of forever…

I have waaay too many Steve Perry pictures. I mean, WAAAAAY too many. TOO too many. So many, that I'm running out of room for "Gallery" links on the updated Shrine....that's "Gallery 1, Gallery 2, Gallery 3" for you non-HTML-geeks. AND I DESIGNED THE PAGE AT 1024x768 AND TO BE ABLE TO HOLD LOTS OF … Continue reading I do not believe this.

All right, already, I hear you. The recent Journey reissues have been inspiring. Relistening to the remastered albums have been fueling rumblings in that deep-down-under part of the brain that dreams & pictures & imagines & thinks of such things and now I've got characters that WILL NOT SHUT UP. Or, at least, are starting … Continue reading So on the 7 Kingdoms front…
