10.08.08 by ScottC @ 8:02 pm Joseph is a future Science Villain I have spoken of before. At two and a half, his development is well advanced and his parents continue to encourage and expand on Joseph's natural talents. Why wouldn't they? When some parents brag about how their child is on the honor roll, Joseph's parents can respond proudly that Joseph has just taken over India. One of the areas they have been working with Joseph is overlooked by most but still important: food. Young children can be notoriously picky eaters. This attitude usually carries over into adulthood which explains the popularity of restaurants like Olive Garden and On The Border. Of course, for a supervillain this is unacceptable. How menacing would Doctor Doom or Lex Luthor be if they served chicken nuggets and macaroni and cheese while expounding on their evil plans. Fortunately, Joseph already has a varied appetite. I have seen this kid chow down on some hummus, curry, and barbecue pork ribs. Though not at the same time.  To further his culinary education, I pointed the parents to Global Goodie.

10.06.08 by Widge @ 10:09 pm  That's right, now through October 12th, you get girly t-shirts at Threadless for as low as $12. Not bad. And if you're in a Halloween frame of mind (and of course you are), I would point you to the glow in the dark marvel that is the pictured "The Good Guys Don't Glow at Midnight," the other glow in the dark marvel of "Billy Says It's Haunted," or the UV ink-enhanced "Vampire." As always, sales like these make inventory over there disappear. And remember: Xmas is coming. So. Categorized as: Shirts

10.01.08 by Widge @ 2:58 pm  I know how you feel. When I get into costume it's as a zombie and normally takes a shitload of time to get made up. Not to mention if I do up the zombieness properly I've got makeup on my hands and get paranoid about, you know, sitting on the couch at your Halloween party. That's the benefit of having two personas. I can just have one dress up as the other. Bingo, a costume. But if you want to wear a shirt that's sure to spark conversations at any Halloween party, I would remind you of Last Exit to Nowhere. I've praised them. Scott's praised them. They have kickass shirts based on your favorite films and such. Pictured is taken from An American Werewolf in London. I bought the Amity Island PD shirt for Cosette to wear when she went to swim with whale sharks. Is good stuff and I can vouch for them. Categorized as: Shirts

09.24.08 by Widge @ 3:29 am I remember at the last Jonathan Coulton/Paul and Storm show, where I know the performers were distracted by the guy in the graphic equalizer shirt Whichever it was, they were flipping out at the dancing lights being worn by certain members of the audience. Now, I give a warning to them and to all the other pop culture/geekcentric musicians: ThinkGeek now has an electronic drum kit shirt. Direct link for the feedreaders. People, use this shirt responsibly. I've been to enough shows to know that people have trouble clapping in rhythm, much less providing improvisational percussive accompaniment. Categorized as: Shirts

09.17.08 by Widge @ 4:06 pm  There is something to be said for Clash of the Titans, the mad epic Harryhausen-fueled mythology romp which features the best line ever delivered on screen by Update: Thanks to Matthew for setting me straight--I've thought it was Olivier for I don't know how long. Man, I need to rewatch the film now... Categorized as: Shirts
