Welcome to our lair....

We are still reeling from the recent effects of an influenza virus. (Not, as we suspected, ebola, although we haven't yet ruled out alien exploding-head space germs, nor bovine spongiform encephalopathy.)

Nevertheless, many fabulous new Japanese Disney items we feel duty-bound to share with the world have just been plopped on our doorstep by our weary mailman. And thus, though listing to the side, we will perservere.

( the newest in Stitchy housewares )

It's the end of the world as we know it

We are already ticked off at the upcoming NBC miniseries titled, "Revelations," for no other reason than that the Biblical chapter in question is the actually titled "The Revelation"--note, no terminal "s", even though every crackpot in the country seems to want more than one Revelation.

But we were taken aback to find ourselves in unexpected company. That is, the dude responsible for the "Left Behind" novels calls Revelations "unbiblical" and "weird."

BTW, if you've hesitated to dive into Jerry Jenkins' endtimes saga before now, please be aware that Fred at Slacktivist is doing the job for you. He's up to p. 71, last we checked!

Illegal art

Sounds good to us!

Our pal ellen forwarded along this link.



The site is focused on a traveling exhibit of art pieces that have run afoul of intellectual property law.

They're offering for sale through the site a DVD-R including Todd Haynes' fabled SUPERSTAR: THE KAREN CARPENTER STORY, a documentary filmed entirely with Barbie dolls.

They also have...a magazine named after a maxi pad!!
