I must admit, I was a Do Bee at first when I was a kid, but when some of my toys didn't come back or were mistreated, I became a Don't Bee. 1959 or '60, I had a Trick Shot toy gun that shot a dart out of the back as well as the front. Priceless for causing havoc in the house. Lent it to the jerk kid down the block. He broke it. After that, forget it.
Never loaned out my toys. They were MY toys. To this day I still freak about a kid I knew who had the same pirate figure that I did. Fighting Furies with the peg leg that contained the treasure map. He took my treasure map because mine went missing and suddenly his figure had one. Yeh right. Lousy thug.
I had a dart firing crossbow that I would fire a great suction bolt. Knocked a cookie out of my Dad's hand once from the kitchen to his chair. Few seven year olds could have made that shot. True story.
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.
