    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Well, we've already got the rubber ducky. And the tutu has been requested many, many times. I used to work for a game company and I thought that they'd have tons of their games in a closet somewhere to give out to people similar to what Ken was saying. However, when I was hired on and...

    Weird AL is back!

    Boober_Gorg, where did you get that info? On Weird Al's site it says he is indeed doing an appearance on the Simpsons, but doesn't go into details. That's not exactly the type of role I'd expect to see Weird Al play, but Simpsons have had celebrities play out of character from time to time.

    Frank Oz to direct "The Stepford Wives" Remake

    It's not like it was that great of a movie to begin with. I think people get upset when people mess with the classics. Like this "Truth About Charlie"/"Charade" remake. What's up with that? Mark E Mark taking on Cary Grant? That's got to be a joke! Anyway, the original film is somewhat...

    Series 2 Arrives: When and Where

    So DrTooth, is your new goal to get Mini-Gobo in every post on the board? And why do people keep posting to this thread when Series 2 hasn't arrived yet? Arrgh! I can only have my hopes dashed a certain number of times in a day!

    I think it was a coded message. Wait, if you rearrange the letters of his post you get: More clean slugs.

    Official Unofficial Don Music Thread

    Well, I was pretty good considering I saw it probably 20 years ago! Thanks for looking that up. (I like my version better.)

    The grand MC exodus begins...

    I've been here over most of the summer, but never before that time. I have never felt unwelcome, or that my comments were unwarranted. I did make sure of a few things before I jumped into the posting game. First, I made sure to read any and all FAQs. Second, I made sure to read as many...

    Futurama Fans

    It hasn't been technically cancelled. However, no more episodes have been ordered. Because of sporting events and a few other situations, Fox only broadcasts about half a season worth of Futurama episodes each year. Since they had enough episodes in the can to last them for a few seasons...

    Favorite Palisades PVC

    Probably Mahna Mahna, but I really would prefer to see the sculpt before my final opinion.

    The Glory of the 80's

    I love the synths, hate the drum machines. My biggest complaint with 80s music is there were a lot of great keyboard players who knew absolutely nothing about percussion! There were some really great songs like Aha's "Take On Me" or Peter Schilling's "Major Tom" that pain me to listen to...

    Official Unofficial Don Music Thread

    I have been known to emulate Don Music a time or two. I seem to remember him writing his own version of Sesame Street. I don't remember the exact lyrics, but it was sort of like this (I'm sure I'll get corrected): Stormy night Everything is a fright Angry Neighbors And the sky is dark...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    I was talking about the prototype, though it was very similar to the sketch.

    Unappreciated Cartoonist!

    My wife is an avid collector of children's books. She buys random lots from e-bay so we've got hundreds of children's books. Some of them I look at in wonder at the amazing artwork (like "How Does A Dinosaur Say Goodnight" or "The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear"...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    I think that stage picture is GREAT! That's almost exactly how I would picture a playset. It's got the box seats, orchestra pit, and curtains. Now just allow the back to either be removed or to use interchangeable backgrounds and that is all I would want. I don't need to fit my other...

    The Glory of the 80's

    I've seen Weird Al in concert twice, I've seen dozens and dozens of other concerts. Al's two that I did see were my top two concerts I've ever been to. He doesn't just play the songs, but puts on an entire show complete with costume changes. And the interstitial sketches, fake interviews, and...

    Unappreciated Cartoonist!

    I've seen some pretty rich art professors in my day. Art teachers are the one teacher where you actually can be good at it and still teach. Especially college professors who other than having to teach classes, basically get paid to paint whatever they want. (I'm simplifying things.) Now a...

    What's the name of those two old guys...

    I wish I could remember more specifically. It's been a couple weeks since it happened. Some post somewhere triggered the memory and reminded me about how agitated I was while listening. Anyone from the Dallas/Ft. Worth area it was the Pugs & Kelly show. (I'm probably incriminating myself...

    What's the name of those two old guys...

    ...said the radio DJs the other day as they somehow got on the subject of Muppets. Have you seen that commercial for the Game Show network where everyone is irritatedly shouting out the obvious answer to the (off-screen) TV gameshow contestant who gets the answer wrong? That's what I was...

    Unappreciated Cartoonist!

    Do you have any on-line samples of your work? I'd love to see some. I have a big list of children's book illustrators that I'd love to give a good smack to. Not that I really despise them, but I'm just upset that they're probably making a living out making bad art for children, when I know...
