08.07.08 by Widge @ 11:50 am ![]() I get asked about the black shirts on Cafepress on two occasions. First, when somebody sees me wearing mine out in public. I figure I might as well; I'm big enough to be a damn billboard, should just go ahead and take advantage. Second, when somebody goes to the Cafepress site and wants to know just how they look. Well, admittedly, when they first started the white on black shirts, their process wasn't, shall we say, matured. But I just ordered two more and here they are up there--stark white logo on a black background. That, to me, is tasty. And look--they even come all folded up like a little black burrito with a paper wrap around them. And I understand they come that way--at no extra charge. Wow. If you want to snag some stuff with the Needcoffee logo on it, feel free. We even have shirts that aren't black, if, you know, you're one of those color-wearing types. If I am greeted by anybody wearing Needcoffee gear of any sort at DragonCon, I will hand you something out of Widge's Magic Prize Bag. Could be a DVD, could be a book, could be a frozen ham. You never know what you will get from the Magic Prize Bag. This deal is good each day until I run out of prizes in the bag. Categorized as: Shirts

08.07.08 by Widge @ 2:55 am ![]() When I started at Corona's Coming Attractions, around 1997 or so, there were a number of pages that predated me getting there. One was Cameron's Avatar. And before the site went away, that page was one of the most convoluted that we had: it was project-lives, project-is-dead over and over and over again. From 1996 to 2000. One of the most amusing things for me is that the bit about this being Cameron's follow-up to Titanic turned out to be accurate. Of course he's been busy filming at the bottom of the ocean and playing amateur archaeology sponsor for fake relics, but hey, the man can have his hobbies. Now I know I try to break down a lot of news for you, but this Hollywood Reporter article you really just need to go read for yourself. This movie sounds like it might be the cure for the Robert Zemeckis CG Zombie Blues. Check out this taste: Categorized as: Movies

08.07.08 by Cosette @ 12:56 am ![]() When you're a kid, you think about how life would be if you were on your own with no parents. Probably a highly romanticized ideal picture of some adventure or some such. That's not precisely the case with this film, in which the young protagonist's parents have to "disappear" lest they "be disappeared." And what results is the kid on his own trying to go on with life in the hopes his parents will return. We have a spare copy of the movie here--if you'd like to win it, go ahead and enter...and you can do so once a day. Categorized as: Contests

Confused? Start here. It won't help you be less confused but it's the beginning, anyway. New strips Mon, Wed, Fri. Or as near that as we can muster. Categorized as: Something Odd
