( Saturday NO PO) Eat Your Veggies Day, World Juggling Day, Cherry Tart Day & World Croc Day

Post by Z is for Zangie » Sat Jun 17, 2023 1:35 am

I like most veggies, my favorites are potatoes, Cauliflower, and Tomatoes ( yes I know they are technically a fruit, as are cucumbers for that matter...lol...so a third that isn't would be Corn). I can't Juggle, but I like watching those who can, pretty cool. I have never had a Cherry Tart, but. I love Cherries I probably would like it, I assume it is kinda "tart" in taste, which I normally like. Crocodiles, while dangerous and scary, are also pretty cool in my opinion...great big predators...but interesting all the same, you have to respect their power. They are apparently endangered, at least some of the species, which would be s shame if they went away.[ I didn't know there were so many species of them, why I posted the list./color]

I got a thing for that era, the music the style.
But your video did have a twisty side that reminded me of this

Great and underrated movie. Roddy Piper's best role, although his role in Hell Comes to Frogtown is classic. (terrible movie!)

I've seen it, of course. And read some of the comics it was based on. The artist of the comic Jamie Hewlett is one of the founding members of the virtual band Gorillaz.

The movie is sadly not very representative of the comic, but then again that would be difficult to do. The comic has very little narrative, is pretty episodic, and looks more like a punk rock fan-zine written by Michael Moorcock. . The movie does capture the character of Tank Girl fairly well though.

I spend time with family and end up missing a They Live conversation.

Damon Albarn, yeah. He's behind the music of Gorillaz, along with lots of guest artists. Hewlett is primarily behind the art and animation, which are as much a part of the Gorillaz experience as the music.
