Everything having to do with that horrible, horrible movie is just abysmal. The show (and its pervasive music) was cloying enough, but roping in John Huston to do the damn obligatory movie led to some of the most cynical, awful celluloid ever printed. (And all these awful toys that love you back.)
yeh, it was a stinker as a comic and was worse as a musical. And the way everyone just fawns over it and love it so. HARD KNOCK LIFE indeed. You should be sewing runners in some sweat shop in Bangladesh ya mutant ginger.
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'm with Jordan. I hate that friggin musical and movie. And worst of all, they're remaking the movie now, I believe!

The only thing I kind of don't mind is that song about hating all the little girls.
The original strip is a right-wing tract, if I remember right. "Warbucks" as an anti-Roosevelt figure, I think.
Maybe its like Goldfish crackers, "The snack that smiles back" (until you bite their heads off).
