To Joss Whedon: No Cabin in the Sky

Mr. Whedon, although you'll won't like what I have to say, it's required of me. The release of the film you produced, The Cabin in the Woods, troubled me greatly. I'm even more troubled after trying to watch it.

Having a Klystron Christmas

I don't expect anyone to read this post, just like I don't expect ever to be paid for writing anything. But I feel the need to commemorate the way I spent Christmas for most of my life.

There isn't much Christmas in my part of the world, central Florida, except at the theme parks. Disney has their lights up, although they're no longer the Osborne Family Festival of Lights; the family's been disposessed. Universal has their Grinchmas and Macy's Balloon Parade.
