Both “Smallville” and “Buffy” will be actively discussed, so I’m splitting the topics right now. It’ll be interesting to see which generates more traffic.

“A LITTLE GETAWAY”
I’ve turned in my short story contribution to the New Frontier anthology. Entitled “A Little Getaway,” it tells the referred to, but never actually told, tale of Calhoun and Shelby’s rather disastrous honeymoon on Xenex. The anthology comes out in October/November of this year.

BLAST YOU, RAWHIDE KID
So I was very pleased with myself, since I’d picked up for a mere eight bucks from my video store a DVD of the original pilot episodes of the old “Lone Ranger” series. I’d watched the Clayton Moore/Jay Silverheels shows frequently when I was a kid, but never saw the first ones. Granted, for eight bucks, you can forget about extras. Be happy it plays at all. But I was pleased.
So I put it on and Kath and I settled in to watch it. The show opens, there’s the Ranger galloping up in the mask and the outfit, and the narrator says, “This is an epic tale of the most fabulous character of the old west.” And Kath and I looked at each other and immediately said, “Ohhhhh, he’s faaaaabulous!”
Uh boy.

OKAY, *NOW* WE’RE COOKING WITH GAS
The troll hammer just went up on the “Buffy” auction. I bid on it. I’m currently the high bidder. I expect that to last about as long as it takes me to finish typing this entry. But hey, it was fun while it lasted.

ANOTHER ANNOYING POLITICAL “WHAT IF” SCENARIO
Some folks got annoyed when I posited a scenario which had Gore as President and Congress not only not letting him attack Iraq, but going into month eighteen of an investigation trying to prove 9/11 was his fault.
Well, here’s one that’s even more annoying.
Considering Congress spent eight years investigating virtually every business tie the Clintons had, and delving into everything from Whitewater to travel bureaus to Clinton’s sex life…
Let’s say that Gore HAD been given the okay to attack Iraq. If that attack resulted in lucrative clean-up contracts for businesses that either had been major contributors to Gore’s campaign, or that Joe Lieberman had previously been involved with…
Am I the only one who thinks you could clock with an egg-timer how long it would take for a full-scale investigation to be put into motion?

OKAY, FINE, WEST WING
I only just saw it this afternoon on tape. Why? Why do you think? Because I was out bowling last night.
Continued in the extended just in case others haven’t seen it.
