For whatever reason, they used to show Logan’s Run on TV growing up, possibly because Farrah Fawcett was in it, who knows. I thought it was the bee’s knees. Then I saw Star Wars and everything changed. But I remember this one kid at camp defending Logan’s Run over Star Wars. It might have been the same kid who claimed to have invented some masturbation machine involving a battery motor, Legos and rubber bands. Naturally, I told him he was nuts. Now I’m not so sure; it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Logan’s Run, and if I could just get my hand on a battery motor…

That kid who invented the masturbation machine with the rubber bands and Legos is the same one who did the cantina scene in Star Wars: geeks with money and a chip on their shoulder now.

I like HIPS. And if I had more energy now I’d riff off your unsubscribe thing, I like that. Thanks Beth! Too much German-learning now for adult minds, tonight.

Reblogged this on Tish Farrell and commented:
Today, Mak (Makagutu) at Random Thoughts is quizzing us about the length of blog posts: what is acceptable to us blogger-readers. The general consensus so far is that the quality of the writing is the key. So here’s a post from Pinklightsabre’s Blog (whose longer posts I also read with great pleasure). This post is short, funny, zips off the screen and is wholly of our time. So this is my response to Mak’s question: good writing will out every time. Please enjoy!

You didn’t mention that Customer Service for the internets also wants your blood type, time and volume of your last BM, and the super-sneaky-double-secret-probation PIN number (chosen at random from all characters in the last web page you viewed)
Love the post!

Ha, ha, ha…we really could go on here couldn’t we? I like the BM reference. We could prop this up into some Orson Welles hoax if we wanted. Thank you Peg, lovely to hear from you.
