FEB. 27 IT'S
LIKE THE OSCAR FOR HORROR! OR MAYBE THE HUGO! MAYBE IT'S LIKE THE EDGAR! Other feoamante.com contributors on the preliminary ballot are, Continued at Story Time.
FEB. 26 THE
WORLD TRADE CENTER HAS BEEN BOMBED BY TERRORISTS! New York City Firefighters helped 50,000 people to safety. Helicopters, fighting winds and snow, rescued another 28 people from the rooftops. It took 18 days to find the remains of the last victim, Wilfred Mercado. The terrorists would not have been caught, had they not been so extraordinarily foolish as to return to Ryder and demand their $400 dollar rental deposit. Evil is stupid. Militant
Islamist, Ramzi Yousef, is believed to be the mastermind and has suspected
ties to the al Qaeda. From 1980 to 2001, the Hizbollah
(Islamic to English translation - no "e")
and al
Qaeda (not that they like each other)
have attacked and murdered thousands of Americans in the U.S. and abroad
. In the last ten years those attacks have increased. For over two decades
these Islamic militant groups have been crying out for a Holy War
against every citizen of the U.S. Now they are wringing their hands
and crying that the U.S. wants a Holy War with them! And there
are still those sheep minded imbeciles thoughtlessly bleating, "Give
Peace A Chance". When one of these beknighted chuckleheads blithers
this to you, why not say, "We did: For twenty years; and what did
you do for peace in that time?" From Todd
McFarlane Frank has innumerable sales records and is considered a legend/pioneer in the comic book industry, having broken ground on SPIDERMAN, DAREDEVIL, BATMAN, SIN CITY, DARK KNIGHT, RONIN, and many more. Todd and Frank have collaborated many times in the past on the SPAWN comic book series, including a Spawn/Batman cross-over comic book. Additionally, McFarlane Toys released two "Marv" action figures based on Miller's "Sin City," including the highly controversial (and sought after) Death Row Marv figure. To listen to the show this Thursday, log on to: http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/radio/mlb_radio_index.jsp and click the CURRENTLY ON THE AIR link at the top of the page. There is also a link to Todd's last show on the bottom of this page, if you want to listen in. Fans can
ask Todd questions in advance or during the show by sending e-mail to
radio@mlb.com
at any time. Please include "Todd McFarlane Show" in
the subject or body of the note. Questions can * FeoNote: Bill Everett created DAREDEVIL despite what this press release says. Frank Miller's ruler straight jawlines, toothpick toothed villians, and enormous hands didn't enter the DareDevil realm until issue #158, when he did the pencils to Roger McKenzie's story in 1979. What Frank Miller did do, however, was breathe new life into every DC and Marvel character he touched. The movie versions of BATMAN, SPIDERMAN, and now DAREDEVIL all owe more to Miller's unique vision (dare I say VERY unique vision? No, I probably better not) than to anyone else.
FEB. 21 IT'S
MY BIRTHDAY! So don't expect any more updates until Feb. 25, cuz I'm taking a long weekend for my birthday. I plan to recover from my birthday on Feb. 24, which is Monica J. O'Rourke's birthday, though she is no relation: It's just one of those weird coincidences. Oh, you don't believe in coincidence? That's because you are a moron. WHAT
IS THE PATRIOT ACT? Continued at THE PATRIOT ACT.

Sipos and Patrick Patterson Hollywood Reporter has the story!

NO STOPPING TODD Seriously, a guy this rich, who made his first millions in Horror (and now balances his riches between Horror and Sports), hardly needs to hit the comic book stores, glad handing the fans and signing autographs: And yet he does! Here's notice to all the far less successful writers and artists who find their fans "too much to deal with". Todd McFarlane has got ya trumped at every corner, baby! Check out this bit of news from McFarlane's latest conquest - Continued at Horror Movies. REMOVING JUNKeMAIL FROM YOUR LIFE PART II A while back, I gave yall an email address whereby you could remove yourselves in one shot from everything involving a specific spam scum email company. The sleazy trick of most of these companies is that no matter how many times you request removal, they keep sending you crap - legally - under the guise that, you didn't request a stop to all JunkeMail, you just didn't want any offers from that SPECIFIC company - like say, Psychic Miss Cleo, Porn In A Ditch, or Lavalife, that buys JunkeMail services. Continued at Verio Suspicious.
FEB. 13 AS WAR
LOOMS, A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION EMERGES Anyway,
while all media have their biases, reading from several sources still
gives a more complete picture just the same. In that spirit, today's
link is to a Russian news source. This is not your Father's PRAVDA.

So to celebrate this visionary and thinker, go getcher self a partner and monkey around! And if you are intelligent or even appreciate intelligence, conceive a hankerin' to reproduce today!

FEB. 01 From E.C.McMullen
and Kelly Parks "If
we die, we want people to accept it. We're in a risky business, and
we hope that if anything happens to us it will not delay the program.
The conquest of space is worth the risk of life." Prior to its flight, the Columbia had just returned from a major "patch job" to get it ready to withstand the rigors of lift-off. No word yet if it was also patched to withstand the rigors of re-entry (mach 17 - about 12,000 miles an hour - about 4 times faster than the fastest jet). At the risk of sounding fatuous, I'd like to remember the last crew of the Columbia as those who flew into space as people, and returned as falling stars. |
