Another clip from X-Men: First Class has been released—this one shows Beast revealing what his mutant power is, after he’s been outed by a certain telepath.

Jonny Lee Miller will play Roger Collins. Follow the link, and you’ll find a synopsis for some of what goes on in the movie. I don't particularly care for that bit of casting.

The Rifftrax Live shows for House on Haunted Hill and Reefer Madness are now available on DVD--the Blu-Ray will come out on July 19th.

Stephen Fry has been cast in The Hobbit.

Syfy has picked up Lost Girl, according to SFX’s Thursday Link-A-Mania post. I suspect it will be butchered.

The Ladder 8 firehall--used in Ghostbusters--is one of twenty fire stations slated to close, due to budget cuts.

Thanks to the forum for That Guy With The Glasses, I now know that Ron Jeremy was spotted in the first Ghostbusters movie. I find it strange that I never heard of this before now.

Io9 has a chart that tells what type of natural disaster is most likely to kill you, depending on where you live in America. The largest percentage for Kentucky is Other, followed by tornadoes, lightning, and severe weather. Sounds about right.

I just logged into Trek BBS for the first time in years—really just to see if I could remember my password. One password reset (since I couldn’t remember) later, I’m surprised my account wasn’t pruned, what with the lack of activity for that length of time.

I just heard the news that Nibbles has passed away. May she rest in peace. :(

While I didn't know her that well, the little I saw of her proved that she was a great person. Our only interaction was from TrekBBS, and as mods of Kellyz Korner. She was a fun, creative person.

She will be missed, and my thoughts and prayers go out to all those who knew her.

Anna1 vs. Shatna
Since Anna1 did so well with the tampon assignment in round one...write a theme song for Tampax tampons using the tune to the Beverly Hillbillies.

OK, I've finished this entry. I'm posting it here first, and then at TrekBBS.

These are the altered lyrics. I'm not posting the original lyrics, unless someone wants me to.

This week at Trek BBS, the Grand Misc. Competition started. I found out my assignment this morning. It was:

Write a press release from the Tampax Corp explaining why their last batch of tampons was recalled.

That's great. This morning, I started and finished within 10 minutes. I'll post it here, even though it is incredibly weird. :)

( Cut for those who don't wish to read the madness of this entry. )

Well, I think I should be embarressed by that. :)
