Troma Night 300
This Friday’s Troma Night will be Troma Night 300! It’s hard to believe how much time I’ve spent at this, our weekly film night. I wonder how many pizzas, in total, have been eaten? How many awful films we’ve groaned at? I’m planning that for… Continue reading
Easter Egg Hunting, Gravity Hooking, and Geocachers You Might Know
This afternoon, like last year, we took the opportunity to spend Easter Sunday hiding one another’s Easter eggs in the woods and then running around looking for them. For some reason, this year Rory didn’t want me to be responsible for hiding his egg (something… Continue reading

Enter The Ninja
So, like a handful of others, I’ll be participating in Andy‘s Ninja Burger game tonight. He’s asked us each to throw together a character – or at least to look at character generation – so here’s mine: Name: Ava Kurosawa Job Title: Driver Qualities: Average… Continue reading
Vanilla Sky, A Letter, And A Trip
VANILLA SKY Perhaps Vanilla Sky wasn’t the best choice of film to finish Troma Night last night on, based on the dream I had: I dreamt that I was dreaming, and that during that inner dream I became lucid [not so hard, actually, and something… Continue reading
