No it’s not the story of a Jewish family given strange powers after an accidental dose of Gamma radiation (well, not until I sell that screenplay) but just a series of cool super hero merch from the mid seventies boom: Ah the man of steel, I need this for better beer consumption. Classic Adams Batman, […]
Here’s something I recently found in a pile of papers in my basement, a brochure for a child’s table and chairs based on Star Trek and not just that, the Filmation animated Star Trek! If this exists, I simply must own it despite my lack of room and obvious impracticality, it must be mine. I’m […]
I’ve been in love before, done some crazy things I’m no longer proud of but I’ve never been “wear a white t shirt with a backhanded compliment about myself” in love.
