Hello, Sarcastic Voyage fans!

Welcome to the blogroll, anyone who came here after hearing my guest spot on The Sarcastic Voyage Podcast. It's all pretty clearly laid out. The first ever post can be easily reached, and will give you a notion of what I'm all about. Yes, I know some of the blogs are light on content now, but in the coming months, I will be embarking on a regular update schedule. Or not. Mind you, I am a grad student, and free time tends to equal naptime. But I have a half-finished Downdate to be put up soon, and two-and-a-half complete Christmas Carol blogs I'll begin posting as soon as it's a reasonable Christmas season. Which is not now, no matter what the radio at Wendy's says.

There's also to be some content posts on this very blog. Just stuff that I think of here and there that doesn't fit into any of my categories.

So welcome, and if you like what you see, stick around. It's gonna be splendid.

New Sidekick Post

I like this one. The once-thriving trend of Kid Sidekicks has fallen a bit by the wayside, but in the 1940s, everyone thought it was a great idea to have a 10-year-old fighting muggers and nazis and giant alien robots. You know, for the kids to identify with. Click on the very good point to read about some.

New Post at Under the Hood

You know, some time ago, I caught the movie Hot Shots Part Deux on TV. I assumed that the reason I liked this movie so much as a child back in the days before GoGurt and Heelies was that I was less sophisticated. This was, after all, a lad who numbered among his favorite movies Super Mario Brothers and Lost in Space. To my surprise, HSPD was still quite sharp and funny, with layers of jokes I didn't get as a young'un. No masterpiece to be sure, but still a fun watch. Would that I could have the same experience again...

First Content Post at Stupid Wizards

Wherein I am Extremely Judgmental About An Antagonist's Reliance on Coincidence and Luck.

Not that I'm saying I could have done better, but I'd have tried to come up with a more foolproof plan. Clearly, Rowling wanted him to look like a brilliant chessmaster, but...

I'm getting ahead of myself. Click on the amusing visual pun for more.

Another new Side Project

I actually didn't mean to post this now, I was just trying to sort a weird HTML thingy. But since it posted, I may as well make it public. Don't get spoiled, okay? I'll be going back to "monthly updates if you're lucky" soon, I'm sure. The Kicker this time is Kato, a classic ethnic sidekick from the golden age of radio. Click the guy who looks kinda like him to proceed.

EDITZ: Ironically, or at least ironic enough for Alanis, the below picture is being hypertextually irritating as well. Just click here. I love you all.

A new post at Side Project.

Woo woo woo yeah! My girlfriend is away, and I'm lonely and YOU all get to reap the benefits! You vultures. Anyways, this here is the first ever content update on Side Project, my sidekick blog, and I'm sure you're all itching to know who the inaugural 'kicker is. So click on the sidekick in the sidecar to find out. (It's not Robin)






















(By the way, it says June 7th on the update. Today's not June 7th. That just around when I was doing all my blog planning and setting up, and apparently that's more important to the blogging software then, for example, the actual date it's posted.)

Another New Post at Under the Hood.

Look, I swear I'm going to update the new blogs any month now. I have two updates for each written, but pretty much immediately after I announced them, my Lappy broke hard, and now I can't access my stuff, due to my earlier insistence on using MS Works instead of Word, leaving me with an assload of blogs that end in a .wps file extension, and I'm too lazy and incompetent to fix it. Anyway, I'll be getting them back soon, so y'all just sit tight, and in the meantime, click on Riker there to read a new Robin Hood review. It's the only thing you guys care about, anyway.
