What is it with China that these weird mutations keep popping up over there? It kind of reminds me of that fish on the Simpsons. How hilarious is it that it's being studied at West "Normal" University in Nanchang? (I believe "Normal" is an old-fashioned way of referring to a teaching college.)

I can't believe you can hear Chris Hansen kicking down your door over the sounds of Walt Disney spinning in his grave. Or ice box, whatever.

And we'd all better just *hope* the tongue-replacing parasite is "rare".

Something in the water, man. I just. Snake! With leg! Clawed leg! That poor, poor woman. If I'd seen something like that, I would have immediately assumed I was on acid or something.

See, I'm pretty sure I could take Walt Disney in a fight. Chris Hansen, though... I'm not as favorable on my odds for that.

And that it only affects fish!

I shall begin rolling my pennies for bail money. I have lots of pennies.

Also, I think my childhood is crying silently in a corner after seeing that picture of beefcake Peter Pan. Like you, I'd seen most of them before, but that one...NO MEANS NO, TINK!

Oh my God, yes. Plus, Peter Pan just doesn't transfer well to beefcake. Him and Kuzco are... yeah. Though like Twig said, I love the one guy from Treasure Island who looks like he's three seconds from saying, "Uh, I think I came in the wrong room, guys."

Also, I dislike this new redesigned Tinkerbelle Disney is touting. I liked her better when she only spoke in bell jingles, was unapologetically homicidal, and wore slutty low-cut green dresses.

Yeah, I miss the old Tink and her homicidal ways. Maybe she could kill that weird beefcake Peter Pan while she's at it.

You should appreciate the fact that we were supposed to have a deck of naughty cards in the last show I stage managed, but the only naughty playing cards we could find were Chippendales (which we felt might not go over so well with some of the guys). So instaed, we bought a deck of Tinkerbell cards. It was 52 different scantily-clad fairy women in various positions indicating that they were ready to mate with anything that would have them.

That parasite looks totally fake to me. But nature is full of weirdass things, so I don't know.

I'm so conflicted between enjoying the beefcake Disney characters and being really freaked out. Like. Kuzco? Not sexy. Just freaky.

And the librarian's response was awesome, yo.

I look forward to your next post!

Even if it is fake, it is freaking the fuck out of me. It makes me think of that fish in the Amazon that swims up your urethra, and then just hangs out there.

I can't enjoy the Kuzco because Kuzco is essentially Milale. Not in looks, but totally in spirit. We're pretty much ripping off that entire movie! But yeah, he is not so very sexy. (Mil can't do beefcake poses, he is too scrawny and it looks ridiculous. This makes him very sulky.)

I am sorry about your grandma, by the way. I hope Baco is keeping you cuddled, and things go as well as possible.

You missed my birthday, but it is cool, I love you and I'm glad you aren't dead.

I thought of you the other day when I was looking through my newly arrived Absolute Sandman and saw in his pitch Neil originally intended to have the rhyming match in hell be a perfectly formed sestina (it also confirms he took the demon rhymes thing from Alan's Swamp Thing). I guess it was too hard to pull off when he got around to it, pretty cool though none the less.

That pains me most of all. Happy late birthday, love! I hope it was a good one. I am very much enjoying your recent posts on the Arthurian remix, so to speak. Mulling over the one with the potential girl, at the moment.

Oh Neil, you and your sestinas. I do like them, though it's sad he couldn't make it work.

After this weekend, I will let you do the drinking, because I think my liver is too saturated to handle anything more for a while.

Things that make me think of you: horrific sexual things and complex poetry.

That is the sweetest thing anyone has said to me in a long time.
