Suddenly almost all the females in my life are knitting. I’m hoping this isn’t what I’m getting for christmas. I’m really, REALLY hoping that’s not what I’m getting.

You know he’s bad. We all know he’s bad. You’ve read about how bad he is (Though you’re not all giving me feedback. Shame. Shame.) Now, here’s photographic evidence that Santa is scary.

One of those stories you have to share. This is a friend-of-a-friend sort of deal. Related as it was told to me, though I don’t know the guys who had this conversation. The cat’s name isn’t really Jim-Bob, obviously. So I’m on the phone with Jim-Bob and he tells me he was just at the […]

This is a friend-of-a-friend sort of deal. Related as it was told to me, though I don’t know the guys who had this conversation.
The cat’s name isn’t really Jim-Bob, obviously.
Next day, I call him up, ask him what he’s up to. He says he’s watching a movie.
“And I drinking gin n’ tonic and eating popcorn, right?” I say.
“Oh my god, dude, how do you know that? You can’t have guessed it! What, are you outside my window? Oh fuck, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?”
And you know, he wasn’t kidding.
We’re now saying “What, are you outside my window?” to mean “exactly what I was gonna say” or “Just what I was thinking.” I’m still giggling about this story.
I just found this great archive of Sleaze Science Fiction Covers (Thanks to the lovely Aphrodite at ErosBlog for the link). Man, these rule. And there are actually some good authors in there, or at least respected ones. I suspect I’ve actually read both the Philip Jose Farmer ones. Now, I’ve always avoided writing sci-fi. […]

Man, these rule. And there are actually some good authors in there, or at least respected ones. I suspect I’ve actually read both the Philip Jose Farmer ones.
Now, I’ve always avoided writing sci-fi. I’m a huge sci-fi fan, with a vast library of sci-fi books, both pulp and good quality work. But as a writer it never much spoke to me to do, even as erotica.
But looking at these covers, I’m suddenly feeling a compulsion to write some sci-fi porno thing.
I’m sure the urge will pass before I actually do anything, but I’m thinking something Gernsback, something fifties, something like Forbidden Planet with silver form-fitting space suits.
Hmmm. I must think on this. I might actually get something entertaining out of it.
Note that the sit linked above has many other delights, such as Lesbiana Paperbacks, Drug themed paperbacks, and even a collection on Hillbillies.
I’m a huge fan of whomever put this site together. Note that they’re a non-profit site and are taking donations via PayPal to keep the site up, so if you like it as much as I do, slip ’em a couple bones.
