It’s time….
To send the little ones to dreamland and set your radio’s dial to “spooky”.
Bolt the doors, lock your windows and steel yourself for mysterious suspense, in this evenings final feature… Beyond Belief!
Meet Frank and Sadie Doyle, the toast of the upper crust, headliners on the society pages.
And, oh yes, they see ghosts! 
Oh boy, do I love this show.  After listening to an episode, my head voice sounds like Sadie and Frank mashed together.  If I only drank martinis….
I’m thinking a Sparks Nevada might be next.  If not him them maybe a bunch of his kiddie fans who shine their astro spurs and don their robot fists before listening to his next great adventure.

In the early years of space flight, both Russians and Americans used pencils in space. Unfortunately, pencil lead is made of graphite, a highly conductive material. Snapped graphite leads and particles in zero gravity are hugely problematic, as they will get sucked into the air ventilation or electronic equipment, easily causing shorts or fires in the pure oxygen environment of a capsule.

After the fire in Apollo 1 which killed all the astronauts on board, NASA required a writing instrument that wasn’t a fire hazard. Fisher spent over a million dollars (of his own money) creating a pressurized ball point pen, which NASA bought at $2.95 each. The Russian space program also switched over from pencils shortly after.

40 years later snide morons on the internet still snigger about it, because snide morons on the internet never know what they are talking about.

I’d been hearing about this Joss Whedon video, and um, IT’S WORTH THE HYPE.

paulftompkins:

Did I put on an entirely different tuxedo to ask you to donate to the kickstarter that will bring The Thrilling Adventure Hour from stage to film? WELL, IT CERTAINLY SOUNDS LIKE ME, DOESN’T IT.

This is exciting even to type about! One important clarification: we are not scrapping plans for the motion comic. I got carried away, is all. We are just skipping ahead to the movie. I am still not 100% clear on what a motion comic is, but it is still happening nonetheless. Motion comic.

But first: movie.

THE CONCERT MOVIE OF THE THRILLING ADVENTURE HOUR.

Kick. Start.

Title (optional)

if I could describe my Brain right now I’d use a one word description and then say the word “I forgot what the word was that I was gonna say” because my brain is STARVING.

a proper brain is never satisfied, just as in life where sitting on a couch for a full day is horrible for you if you really think about it, and there is no difference between your butt muscle (that one large muscle near your lower back) and your soggy ol’ brain train.

“YOU NEED COAL FOR YOUR TRAIN OR IT WILL SLOW DOWN AND RUST AND THE ENGINEERS WILL QUIT AND BE ALL LIKE “I won’t work on a train of this poor quality” AND THEN YOUR TRAIN WILL STOP AND HOBOS WILL FINALLY CATCH UP AND INVADE YOUR THOUGHTS”

Closing Thoughts

“I HAVE AN ILL FITTING PAIR OF PANTS WAITING FOR ME AT HOME”

Here’s my full comic for buttzine. Not sure why I didn’t post the whole thing in the first place.

A big “thank you” to Slumber Party podcast listener, Ferocious J, for bringing this important PSA to our attention. One point for Alie.
