Dr. Theda said...: "Stacey" would make for a wondreful "Dr'Who" ...we have a Graet sense of the personality of the Old Doctors.... ( especially Tom Baker..)

Kal said...: Which Tom Baker adventure is the best. If I gotta watch ONE which should it be?; April 10, 2013 at 11:44 AM
Erik Johnson Illustrator said...: Ark in Space, Genesis of the Daleks and The Talons of Weng Chiang are usually considered Tom Baker's best. Any one of those ought to be a good shot.; April 10, 2013 at 12:56 PM
Simon B said...: Just to add to Erik's excellent choices I'd also like to mention my fave Tom story, City Of Death. Ghost-written by the legendary Douglas Adams, and therefore featuring some of the wittiest dialogue in the show's history, this story is a delight with Tom and Lalla Ward running around Paris, fighting the menace of the time-splintered Scaroth, Last Of The Jagaroth. Seriously, you need to check it out...; April 11, 2013 at 2:31 AM
D.I. Felipe González said...: Genesis of the Daleks, or the Sontaran one (can´t recall the exact name of that show).; April 11, 2013 at 4:22 PM
M. D. Jackson said...: City of Death, for certain. Although if you've read Adams' book Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency then the plot will be slightly familiar.; April 12, 2013 at 5:58 AM

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

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.
