Watching The Phantom Planet (1961) on Mystery Science Theatre 3000....

It occurs to me; Wouldn't the Solarites also be teeny weenie?

Why is it Black history in America is remembered with racism & hatred, and the history of the Irish struggles & plight are remembered with a stupid drinking holiday?

Y'Know, It used to be "MY" people that did the work that Americans weren't willing to do!

After watching The Colour Out Of Space tonight, I attempted to write the title of the movie using the American spelling. I was however unable to leave it like that and had to go change it to the English spelling.

If they throw out the electoral college, am I gonna end up voting for a local rep like I want, or am I still gonna be voting for reps in another *&%@! city?

It depends on how your district is gerrymandered. Nothing to do with the electoral college.

Had a meeting with DARS yesterday....

I've been working with them for a year & a half to help me find employment.....

In that time, I've had a stroke, & so they want to make me wait until AFTER I've spoken to a neurologist & a cardiologist to see if it's "REALLY" safe for me to go back to work, while on the same day, the state government voted to give driving permits to illegals, raising the state minimum wage to a point that's gonna price me outa the market...

I feel like I'm in a really bad single panel cartoon.....

When the film you are watching has written on the screen to describe the special effects they can't afford you know its going to be bad.

I read that heroin overdoses in the 2010s cost my state over 1,000,000 years of human life.

There ought to be a name for the way tater tots and french fries get stuck in your esophagus. Maybe Swallowed Potato Resistance Syndrome, or  SPotRS.

They say truth is the daughter of time.

To wit, my grandpa used to tell young little me stories about him volunteering after high school at the city's big train terminal during WWII, acting as a sort of go-fer to help travelers and service personnel as they passed through.

Later Grandpa told me he knew a pretty black woman who worked there back then with the ironic name of Alabaster. He said one day around 1945 some man was fighting with Alabaster, so young Grandpa got into it and shoved the man out the door, telling him what he'd do if the man came back and laid a hand on Alabaster. (Even at fifteen my grandpa was big and tough.) He said Alabaster gave him a kiss of appreciation for what he'd done, and after seeing her safely on her bus, he went whistling all the way home.

Awww, how nice!

Much later, though, after grandpa was gone, my cousin Dana let me in on the unmentioned part, that Alabaster was a prostitute, her fight had been some John trying to not pay her, the "kiss" Grandpa spoke of may or may not have been a metaphor for something else, and so in effect our grandpa got, ahem, kissed by a streetwalker after he more or less, however nobly, acted in the unintentional role of her pimp?

Wow!

Lotta layers to some of life's stories.

I wonder exactly how Dana knew that though -
Or if she was just creatively speculating?

Shrug, I learned a long time ago to roll with what she tells me, since her info is usually good. I have no idea how she could have found that out unless our grandpa told someone else at some point and somehow it filtered back to her, which is probably how it was. She was also a snoop as a kid, always hiding in closets and under tables and eavesdropping. Still does, actually, and I found her wadded up under my coffee table this past Christmas after I thought everyone went home.  :tongueout:
