Carl Kasell & Peter Sagal by davekaleta on Flickr.
although the story is bittersweet, it does speak to idea of anticipating the full light & energy of real love, and that is why I thought this might be a good video to share on Imbolc, the second Sabbat of the Wiccan Wheel of the Year - it’s recognizing the seed, knowing if we nurture it just a bit longer, it will grow into something magical - new life, the return of the Sun - it’s Brigid’s holiday - she was the Lightbringer - for me, she is a Goddess of Hope & Faith
the kid in Touch would love JoCo’s song, I think LOL
and this video showing how this bad ass fractal forms is freaking sweet, too :D
Did you feel that? A tremor in the LEGO Star Wars Force? Or was it a RING?
LEGO’s site is sadly lacking on deets, right now, except that these Lordly blocks will be hitting shelves in the Summer of 2012; but io9 supplied a few more bits of tid & some speculated/leaked sets.

Many people will tell you lightning doesn’t strike twice. The fandom equivalent might be, “you never get to talk to one of your all time favorite genre performers twice (so make it good, if you get the chance.) I was recently presented with the opportunity to do just that, when I interviewed Brad Dourif for [...]
Universal’s Repo Men hits US theatres across the country, today. This undertaking was quite ambitious. The novel by Eric Garcia was originally known as Repossession Mambo; the name was repossessed by the film and replaced with the straight forward,”Repo Men,” although it does get recycled in the movie a couple times. Unfortunately, some of the [...]

Repo Men from all over the country will be gathering for special “advance showings” of a “training film” featuring The Union’s two best level 5 Repo Men! Here’s your chance to infiltrate their [...]

I got the distinct pleasure of interviewing Eric Garcia, the brilliant mind behind the darkly humorous and gripping novel, Repo Men, (formerly called Repossession Mambo) and the basis for the movie of the same name that hits theatres this month (3/19/10). I was further delighted to find that I had run into someone else who [...]
For those of you who, like us at GSB, can’t wait to fall down Burton’s Rabbit Hole, check out the full length music video for Avril Lavigne’s hit single, Alice. The video blends Avril into the shadowy Wonderland, right down to a tea party with Depp’s Mad Hatter and a lot of quick, intriguing flashes [...]
I subscribe to one of the coolest online services known to geeks, since the invention of the 20-sided die: Netflix. While perusing their offerings for “watch instantly on your PC/TV” I stumbled across this odd film. Netflix seemed to think that due to my undying love for Princess Bride, I’d enjoy The Gamers: Dorkness Rising. [...]
Well, the film version of everyone’s favorite emerald ringslinger seems to be filling out their cast. Blake Lively (Gossip Girl) has been cast as Carol Ferris, Hal Jordan’s boss, on-again off-again lover and sometime Green Lantern foe, Star Sapphire.
