The original movie of “The Thing” was, to my way of thinking, far more terrifying than the remake. Not to diss the later version, which had some good effects, but the earlier one was much more of a psychodrama. If you haven’t read the short story it was based on (“Who Goes There”) it’s worth the read.
Blog ‘Lazy Treerabbit’? Well Teresa, maybe I have better things to do than be a substitute for Google translate!Anyway, the voices in my yoghurt told me not to undertake any action today. And they’re usually right.
I added “winglet” to my aviation wordlist on Wordnik. For any who might be interested to see that list, chock-a-block with oddball, colorful and otherwise interesting terminology, click here.
One of the worst things about headcheese is the sound it makes when it is sliced on an electric slicer. I worked in a deli department the summer of 1965, and if I close my eyes I can still hear that noise… (shiver)
It was so very nice of you to post the daguerreotype of Ganny Boom Boom and her cousins, Trashella Swineberg and Lucy Mae Glutz. That’s “Loose Lucy” holding the single shot 12 gauge on her fiance just before the ceremony and just as he escaped and threw himself to the alligators went for a refreshing swim in the swamp.
I can truly say that your interest in Thalweg family history takes a back seat to no other amphibian-related bloggerian.

What makes the ad for “The Thing” so funny is that in the movie, it was the scientists who argued against killing the alien.

We all have some of the non-conformist in us, but I’m afraid she may be confusing parquetry with coquetry.

I don’t mind the voices in the head cheese, but when it gets its own show on Fox, that’s just too much.
