And Everything Else Too

I hope my regular readers (all 1/2 of you) will visit And Everything Else Too. It is a beautiful blog. And this post inspired the following rant. No, don't worry, it isn't me going off on a big pissy tangent. It's actually pretty positive!

My late grandpa had a few of these sorts of things thrown in with his vintage Playboy and Life Magazine collections. Playboy was sure a different beast in the 50's and 60's than it is today. The pictures were really art. Today it's just a bunch of generic beaver shots. Sorry to go off on a tangent, I was just thinking of the differences between Granddad's vintage collection of items such as these travel brochures and today's blatant "in your face" approach. I know which I prefer!

Ah, the Good Old Days of Nuclear Threat

At last! Missile Command is going to be made into a movie! But as Faycin A. Croud points out, they're about 25 years too late for it to have a truly hard-hitting impact and sear mushroom clouds into everyone's nightmares. 

As children of the Cold War, Faycin and I can remember wondering if we'd make it out of childhood or if the two superpowers would go looney toons on each other's ass and launch all the nukes, eliminating life on Earth in a big fireball. I have "nuke dreams" when I'm under a lot of stress. I'm always the one that inadvertently launches the nuke. Usually there isn't a lot of death, but there is a great deal of destruction, and it's all my fault.

Will Illsa Gorrey be the one to start an ineffective but somewhat destructive nuclear war? Maaaaaybe! I kind of feel a story coming on!

If queen beast comes to me w/o terrorizing Kitty, she gets petted. If she goes after Kitty & forces her under couch, she gets squirted.

Harmless method of training cat that cat will hate: squirt bottle. Training burly queen beast not to terrorize newest rescue kitty.

Good morning sickos.
