Little E and I were watching Star Wars (again) on Friday night; toward the end, when the Imperial Flunkie asks Tarkin if he wants his escape pod fired up and ready, my son suddenly blurts out “ARE THEY TRYING TO TEXT EACH OTHER?”

I have no. idea. where. that. came. from. I don’t have a plan that allows for a lot of texting. Texting is something that really doesn’t go on in this house. I’m old and unhip. But, you know, if George is going to keep reinventing Star Wars for a new generation, then I guess this road only leads to one place…

So… I see we can expect Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes in a couple of years. With corporate product placements becoming quite the all-pervasive force, I wonder if there’ll be a change of title by the time the movie is released? … Read more

Give me my damn mail! Okay. Small rant here in the run-up to OVGE and the “live” debut of VWORP!1. It’s taken me long enough to get this book out the door that I’ve watched my good friend Rob O’Hara get two books out the door, and I’ve had time to take in how he’s handled presentation and marketing a bit (not to mention that he provides that advice freely from the get-go). Accordingly, I spent a little bit of money – not a whole lot, but more than I usually do – on signage and presentation for OVGE this year. I had stuff made by other folks instead of rolling my own out of my long-suffering inkjet printer. … Read more

Meet my new buddy Dinsdale the Drashig. He doesn’t make too many public appearances, not since his guest starring gig in the 1973 Doctor Who story Carnival Of Monsters. (Which, incidentally, you can read about in VWORP!1.)

He’ll be helping me hand out books at OVGE, but you’ve gotta be careful with him… … Read more

HA HA HA HA HA... ha. I just got home from the local polling place. Ah, the things you hear folks say – “wow, his name doesn’t even SOUND American!”… really? You think all “American” surnames originated on this continent? Didn’t do well in history, did you, buddy?
