Long lazy day

KG has just posted a
Flier for the London Comic Fest tomorrow, where Commercial Suicide will be launching.

In preparation for revamping the website, I'm starting to get re-acquainted with HTML and ASP again. I'd prefer to be using PHP since it has more curly brackets and looks kinda like Pascal, but I think my web server thingy only supports ASP.

Made a simple program to automate reading comic stories--a variation on the one we use now on www.progressions.org, although this one doesn't consult a database. I had a bunch of stories on the secret page where I keep all my art-in-progress, and I wanted to make it easier to read through them.

If you like, you can read through Death-Blow of the Miracle Masters by Stephen Greenwood-Hyde and me.

Or you can pick up Plastic Farm #2, where it originally appeared as a backup story.

Went to see THE GRUDGE today and found it passably scary, although basically it's just a haunted house story. Nothing that's going to stick with me, and I didn't find it near as visceral as THE RING. Much to the dismay of Stephen and my other more purist friends, I prefer the American version of The Ring, although I really don't see the point in a sequel. The idea itself is classic and, after the first film, what more can you say?

After a snarky comment from Jeff Chon about my Lindsay Lohan/Hilary Duff/Samantha Fox entry, I had to look up "Jojo". I downloaded and watched her video for the redunantly-titled "Leave (Get Out)".

Good lord, she looks like she's about five years old playing dress-up. Also, those girls she's hanging with in the video would kick her ass.

Jojo should follow in the footsteps of classic covers such as Britney's "(Can't Get No) Satisfaction", Hilary's "My Generation" and so on, and cover "Get Back" by The Beatles. She could rework the part of the lyrics that include her name and just be so darn cute.

Jeff
