I’ve never seen this film but I sure want to. While a man named Jing may not be my first choice to play Batman, I would definitely pick a Dante to play Dracula. The film also stars a guy named Nort and that’s all I need.

Meanwhile, the second part of Hollywood Russell and the Hotel Hustle will appear RIGHT HERE in THIS SPACE on MONDAY! Wow, caps really do create excitement! And even better, part three will appear next week as well.

Also I’m tinkering with a sci-fi detective story, staring a plant P.I., the pistil-packing Buck Stamen. (Get it? “Pistil” packing? He’s a plant!)
Or maybe  not.

 

 

 

Imponderable #120: The Sewers of Lawton, Oklahoma

20 Mar

March 20, 2014

In these tough economic times, every penny counts. And if that penny happens to be a 20 dollar bill, then it counts 2000 times. So when a man in Lawton, Oklahoma, dropped $20, it was entirely logical that he would want to get it back, even if it meant that he had to climb down a storm drain to get it. That’s where the story starts to get good.

I’ve never been in a storm drain. In fact, ever since I saw Pennywise in It (when you’re dead you’ll float!) I make sure to stay far, far away from sewer drains. My other experience regarding sewers comes from the movie Them!

 

So if I dropped $20 into a storm drain, would I go after it? No way, Jose. The water in those drainage pipes? It isn’t exactly clean. There’s a reason that Lawton man came out of water-filled sewer system disoriented and dehydrated. If that was the NYC sewer system, he’d also be covered in boils and CHUD bites.

If you dropped $20 into a storm drain, what would you do?
