Well, the petition didn’t work. Maybe you just don’t believe in William Shatner. Personally, I’m a Shatner-Agnostic. Still, no intervention from deities so I’m going to have to do this off my own back. I’ve not written in anger in three weeks now. But, there’s a deadline on the horizon. Baby C Due Date is [...]

30 Rock My World
I hold Aaron Sorkin personally responsible for my late dicovery of ’30 Rock’. “That script would never have been made if the words ‘by Aaron Sorkin’ weren’t on the title page,” I thought as I stumbled to the end of ‘Studio 60 On Sunset Strip’. Even I, a struggling comedy writer with an ego in [...]
Crashed and Burned into the Red Planet
Like Beagle 2, I’ve bounced off the atmosphere and careered into a crater and do not stride the Red Planet contest like some writing colossus. But as least I’ve gone where no simile has gone before. Lucky really. I’ve re-used quite a few gags from that entry in other stuff… Big up to whoever does [...]
Unimportant Meme
Yay! My first tag, courtesy of the lovely Laura. Rules. 1) Put the link of the person who tagged you on your blog.. 2) Write the rules 3) Mention 6 things or habits of no real importance about you. i. I will only ever use Moleskine notebooks because I like to pretend that I’m Ernest Hemingway. [...]
All Time Top 5 Part 5.
1. Betty Rubble – “The Flintstones” Truly, until they draw a cartoon Tina Fey, there can be only one winner. Cat in “Red Dwarf”” once said “I’d go with Betty, but I’d be thinking of Wilma.” WRONG! Wilma was nothing but a shrill harridan. Betty was where it was at. Just look at her. A [...]
All Time Top 5 Part 4.
2. Lisa Simpson – “The Simpsons” Before everyone clicks “Unsubscribe” and starts clearing out their browser history, I’m talking about the 23 year old Lisa from the episode “Lisa’s Wedding”. When I was 23, she would’ve been my ideal woman. Smart, humourless and so far out of my league that we’re not even playing the [...]
All Time Top 5 Part 3.
3. Velma Dinkley – “Scooby Doo” Yes. Velma. Not Daphne. Velma. You’ve read it. You can’t unread it. I know most men would take Daphne over Velma. Hell, most men would probably take Shaggy over Velma. But not Fred. Did anyone actually like Fred? A man as smug as a dolphin. Let’s face it. She [...]
All Time Top 5 Part 2.
4. Ariel – “The Little Mermaid” After yesterday’s foray into the land of “Too Much Information”, hopefully a more popular choice. I’m a delicate creature. As a child, I felt uncomfortable with the sexual tension in the Pepe Le Peu cartoons. Maybe this is a kind of therapy. Maybe it’s just the on-set of an [...]
All Time Top 5 Part 1.
“They”, who know about these things, say that lists are good on a blog. I always do what “they” say. I’m waiting for them to tell me that jumping off a bridge will help my subscriber stats. But all I could think of doing is the Top 5 hottest cartoon characters. Which I will drag [...]
