It's a long story. When I was younger we got 'Monty Python', then 'Star Trek', then 'Dr. Who' late night Sunday on PBS. Dr. Who bored me and put me to sleep and when I got older I associated Dr Who with boring. Then when they redid all the series lately I thought I didn't know enough to enjoy it. But then I found that I was a HUGE fan of Torchwood so was always planning to give WHO another chance. Then 'Firefly' got in the way. I am sure I will DO the WHO one day.
Kal, do this one for me, go and start at the beginning of the new show. You may not get some references to older Doctor Who, but you'll fall in love with it, trust me. And then you can write me each time your like, 'this is awesome' and I'll happily agree with you.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

I thought you had gotten into Doctor Who. How have you not?

Nah, it's The Phantom Tollbooth!
Now that show I remember. Eddie Munster (Butch Patrick) did the kid's voice.
TS is right. Start with the new series. You won't be disappointed.
Cool! That's the son of a friend of mine. Her husband made it.
He made the TARDIS, that is. He only helped to make the son.
That is funny. Small world, eh?
