That Wichita Guy (TWG) Free

Freelance writer with credits in radio sci-fi drama, over 50 issues of various comic books, detective and pulp fiction. Light adventure/fantasy, whatever. I also wrote a comic farce play in college that...well...never have I heard the word 'horrendous' bandied about so freely. Then there wee a couple fo years doing stand-up at the local clubs. Have I really been doing this kind of thing for over 50 years?!?!?!!

    OT: I HATE my new dentist. WHY, you ask?

    New dentist for a cleaning. Not the delight you might assume. First off…is it now standard to use a harpoon to check for tartar under the gum line?

    Well, maybe so, but the hygienist cackling in all the while, in a certified Renfield imitation, while chortling ‘Blood! Blood! SO much BLOOD!’ struck me as a wee tad off.

    And when she came at me at the end with a yard-long strand of dental floss stretched between her hands, all I could think of was an assassin in a Bond flick.

    Okay, so the double kick was probably somewhat inappropriate.

    I am no longer welcome there..

    Fast forward to the twenty second point, where he collapses and his eyes rotate in little circles and he twitches. Needless to say, stores would up stocking it in the Comedy department. Still, the sales DID same the conglomerate from financial collapse.

    Jazzersize videos: SWEAT WITH SMITH. Though the though of him in a tight purple sweatsuit and a headband, wheezing and grunting to the muzak cover of Innagaddadavida is mind numbing.

    Skrull replacement. Tomorrow she sucks his brain out, duplicates Smith and takes over the corporation. She is subsequently found out in a masterpiece of detection on the part of LOST IN SPACE fan Sam, who tumbles to the incessant shrieking of “Take the boy! Take the BOY!” whenever ‘Smith’ is confronted with people.

    Who knew that, for lunarians, al Smiths look the same.

    I actually, in an alternate story replaced by the second Yeti story had a two-for-one hitman (basically takes the job then kills his client in order to avoid loose ends) in town to kill Tracy, pursued by a late-teen detective who is slightly disabled from a prior encounter and has been determinedly trailing the killer.

    Hope it’s that super-crepey robot from Lugosi’s PHANTOM CREEPS!
