Stepping Out for a Second
A quick apology: I will be incommunicado for a couple of days, as I am moving my wife and daughter to New York this weekend. I hope to be back on Monday. In the meantime, I leave you with a few of my favorite little videos. First, there is the inimitable Miss Swan, a character who is sadly underappreciated:
Next, here is an oldy but goody. It's Star Wars from a slightly different perspective:
Finally, this is a clip from Spitting Image, a British humor program(me) that ran in the 1980's. Every so often, they'd stick in an intense little reality check(que). Check out the puppet versions of Quaddafi, Reagan, Chernyenko, Mobutu, etc:
See you soon!

Don't forget your winter gloves. It's chilly here! Thanks for the fun videos.

Spitting Image? I feel old - remember watching it as a teenager. Safe journey.

Oh good luck with the move! Virginia will be a less enlightened place without you!

CEO-
Which was your fave?
Olives-
No kidding! I was wearing my winter coat, my thick sweater, and a shirt, and the wind still cut through me like I was naked.
Damn!
Puss-
Thanks!
I used to watch Spitting Image tapes at a friend's house when we visited London. It was an amazing show.
Lee-
I'm still here until May. The wife is establishing a beach head in the city, and I will join her when the semester's over.
Monicker and Claudia-
Thanks! I got them up there safe and sound. Now I find myself in a very empty house.
Nice to find some fellow Miss Swan fans. She kicks ass!
Odat-
Sorry to miss you on this trip, but it was pretty much in and out. Next time?
