UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

  1. “Oh, *that* kind of grave robbing? Lead on, Chuck!” 😈

  2. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    What? I say “What”?

  3. Heh, this is going to be fun. Tradition says you need to drink at least one bottle of MD 20/20 before going to the graveyard.

  4. At first I was thinking of something like a potato battery … nope!

  5. If you take a dead “D” cell battery, take out the carbon rod from the center, cut a strip of galvanized sheet metal about an inch (2.7 centimeters), take a small jar for canning, suspend the rod in the center and the strip on the side, pour in drain cleaner, you’ll get 1.2 to 1.4 volts DC. 10 of those connected to an inverter will give you 120 VAC at 0.5 amps. Do NOT keep them in the same area you live in however, the fumes will burn your lungs. Just something I learned in chem class in high school. You’d have to top-up the jars every few days, however. Any type of acid will work, even salt water. I think the teacher was a survivalist…

  6. Scheffler, Hovland and Conners Share the Lead at P.G.A. Championship
    Jordan Spieth, who needs a victory at Oak Hill to complete the career Grand Slam, and Justin Thomas, who won last year’s tournament, just made the cut at five over.

Bringing ’em back…

There are very few sources I trust for entertainment news, especially given today’s emphasis on scoop over substance, but The Hollywood Reporter is one of them. If it’s a headline from them, it tends to be vetted and accurate and I pay attention. If I saw one of the more iffy media sites out there declaring that Alfred Molina was going to be reprising his role as Doctor Octopus for the next Spider-Man film, I would shrug. The one and only time he suited up for that was nearly two decades ago and it seems like just the sort of vaguely rumored nostalgia clickbait best not rewarded with a… well, click. But there it is from THR: Molina will be welcomed back to the Spider-franchise with ah, open arms. Jamie Foxx as Electro as well, which means we’re now potentially mixing-and-matching three iterations of Sony’s Spider-films. Benedict Cumberbatch will be appearing as Doctor Strange. Are we going multi-versal? Spider-versal? I mean, that already happened, but not in live action. Mining the past seems to be in fashion, if the above news and also recent episodes of The Mandalorian are any indication. Who am I to buck the trend? We first mentioned Wall Wardens waaay back at the beginning of Episode/Issue 2, and here we are a decade later in real time finally getting to some actual “footage” of the show. It’s not quite the fanfare return some of these other franchises are having, but hey, proud to be on the bandwagon nonetheless.
