Ever had a butterfly land on your nose?

No- and if it did I'd likely swat it and kill it- thinking it's a bee or something.  Bluesad

If you could save only one (or none) of these victims of 1960s violence, would you rather save Ngo Dinh Diem, Robert Kennedy, or Malcolm X?

A good bad movie is like popcorn for the soul!

Diem was a brutal tyrant who had outlived his usefulness.
Robert Kennedy had swung so far left I don't know what he might have done to the country.
Malcolm X had just experienced a spiritual renewal that led him to step away from his earlier calls to violence.
 

Tough call, to be honest, between those last two.

Am I still relevant both here and in this world as it is?

You are most assuredly relevant here, and while there are people in this world who think of you as ' Uncle Zombie', you are relevant to the world outside of this place too.

Thanks: the question wasn't self-pity or anything like that: I do question my role in life a lot.  Smile

Trevor, in archiving films you preserve a portion of humankind's legacy for the future. You and all historians do noble work. I don't know if any of us can appreciate exactly how we've impacted and changed the world, some people just maybe in ways that would shock them, so considering you've influenced more people for good than bad, I'd say you have relevance in that way too. You're doing fine.

Thanks: I've been working here for 28 years (December 1st is the start of the 29th year) and I wonder how long I can still do it and still be useful and relevant.

Two of my former colleagues were forgotten even before they retired - one has since passed on - and I do not want that to happen to me.  Bluesad

Just relax and feel the love for you here Trevor.

And you could always get a can of spray paint and spray "Trevor was 'ere" somewhere prominent. These things can remain in place for decades before anyone gets round to cleaning them up.

I've always kind of pictured you as the kind of guy who helps out the new arrivals. People like that tend to leave an impression and be remembered a long time after they have left.

If it's not too personal of a suggestion, Trevor, (and I apologize if it is) have you ever thought of raising a child? There's probably no better way of assuring you'll be remembered or of changing another person's life for the better. I think you're a kind man and I know there are young people out there who are in need of a family, whatever form that family happens to be.

Is anyone here a member of the actual real world mile-high club? (I don't mean the one where you barf on an airplane, that's the Bile-High Club.)

Not me.


Not answering.

I did something like that in 1984 when I left school: I scrawled the Kilroy Was Here image on a wall with a compass - I think - and when I went back to the school almost 20 years later it was still there.  Smile

I have considered that but no adoption agency here will permit a single guy to adopt a child: my special Sister (note the capital S) did this but she was already married.

It's always strange to me that most adults who don't know me well find me intense and scary while children - the most perceptive of all human beings - do not. And yes, i do like children.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
