This Is Just To Say

Although I've found my place in Doctor Who enthusiasm (i.e., I cannot quit it, even after years in apostasy, it is the sum and crux of my genre needs), there is no time I can remember that I have not watched and loved Star Trek. That's simply how it is. It's been a constant in my life, like the sky above, or the taste of water.

I discovered Doctor Who. I was raised in Star Trek.

Therefore, I am too old to be on the internet.

I totally weeped during this week's Torchwood thing.

Sumopaint.com has some neat tools.

But wait. Who’s sitting in that strange Chair From Beyond Space, as its surfaces cycle between ancient cut stone and Kirby Style steel and circuitry?

I've had cravings since withdrawing from
Low-grade acid and cocaine bombs
I can't sleep at night
or hold a decent job."

Jumping ship I'm prone to just the same"

Gentlemen, we've got ourselves a mascot.

Nearly There, I Think



So, I think from now on all my posts will just be pictures of me looking like Doctor Who villains. That seems to make sense.
