Sleep
Time
i started this thread mostly because awk was on here ALL THE DAMN TIME! it's great that it's evolved way past that into a topic about sleep problems. that being said...

i have a hard time getting to sleep. usually i'm asleep by 1am and wake up at 6am for work. weekends i fall by 3 or 4am and wake at 10am with a nap (hopefully!) throughout the day. i think the naps fuck me up.

Anyone read the original TMNT black-and-white comics from Mirage press or play the RPG that came out some time ago? TMNT was one of the first indy comics I ever got into and it was much much grittier than any of the animated or film versions. *And* they all wore the same color masks (blood red!).

The series quickly evolved from its roots as a parody of the comic 'Daredevil' to be its own... er... critter. And I always loved that in the comic that the same toxic waste container that blinded Matt Murdoch and made him Daredevil was the one that dropped into the sewers and mutated the turtles.

And on an amusing note- the Turtles had visible tails (as turtles do) in the original comics. I used to do lay-outs for my high school's weekly 'news' paper and a friend and I got busted for drawing a TMNT in one issue- because people who didn't know the characters thought we drew turtles with wangs! Same reason they stopped drawing them in later versions.

On a second amusing note I have a video produced from a comic convention about a year before the animated series debuted in which the creators- Eastman and Laird- are talking about the comic and say something to the effect of "we just had some group approach us about doing an animated version olf the turtles... but those things are generally crap and never glo anywhere." AHahhaahahaaaaa.... talk about an understatement from guys who within a few years could probably wash their windows using the spare cash they had as rags.

i used to love those comics. fond memories. i read them over and over again, then put it back into my acid free plastic to save for all eternity.

THE FAN EDIT CONTEST HAS A WINNER !!! REVIEWS IN OFF TOPIC FORUM
Time
I graded the discs as a whole, not just what they did for the edit. what really brought the scores down for me were the lack of extras. i really didn't count just having a menu as an extra. if the disc only came with a menu and the edit, then i gave them a zero in that category. turns out the bulk of my scores were lower than i thought they were going to be.

i'll admit, rikter is who introduced me to the scene and I am forever grateful. but he is not the only contact available for non-downloaders... not by a longshot. but i'm sure you know that.

i might be slapped silly by the bizzle on this, but i enjoyed cbb's edits. there were much worse edits submitted.

as far as the wait, what can a person do? dayv's decided to wait out the final judge's grade card. he respects his opinion (if he didn't, he wouldn't have been tapped to judge). honestly, i do too.

plus, karyudo was in freakin japan! real life does take over once in a while. give the guy a break.

i love the ipecac part from that episode. was laughing in tears! my wife asked if i was ok. i said i was fine. then i rewound it. ahh, the wonders of tivo.

another good part was the church of fonz episode where stewie is in that plastic bubble. he walks into the scene and says, "you would NOT believe the day I had." then cut to the old sesame street pinball song homage with stewie as the pinball.

you know it. i know you do.
