Video: What to do on a space date
I suppose this may be tacky, but I thought I'd pimp a video I recently made, in case anyone might be interested. It's a mix of Star Wars with a 1950s instructional film on dating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPWpnyZCXCI" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; [youtube]http://www.youtube.co...

Re: Our own Kevin "No J" Anderson hits the big time
Wow, great news. Congratulations. I've read about Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and the other books in this new genre, but I haven't been tempted to buy one. This one I want to read, though, and not just because it was written by someone at Drabblecast. Good luck with it. I hope it leads to a long...

Re: Drabblecast 132- Doubleheader IV: from Bruce Holland Rogers
I've been a fan of Rogers for years. I bought a book of his short stories a long time ago, called "Flaming Arrow," if I remember right. No surprise that I enjoyed both of these stories with a similar theme. The Wrong Cart was the better of the two for me, because I like the absurd. I admit if I had ...

Re: Drabblecast 129- Annabelle's Alphabet by Tim Pratt
And in regards to the drabble, I must say, the author seems to have an obsession with mustaches doesn't he. ;) I now envision him as one of those "world facial hair championships" entrants, with a luxurious 'stache that curls up past his temples. Modern literature woefully underutilizes the mustach...

I liked this one a lot, partly because of some of the drabbles and partly because it was just different. I wish it was something I had thought of, actually. I'd say there were only a couple duds, like the foot tickling one, while the talking penis, the zombie kid and the fornicating city stood out a...

Thanks, guys. Ray, I would have tried to get your email and ask you about it, assuming I got the okay from Norm first. Now I guess I don't have to. It's pretty much done. I'm definitely no artist, but it was fun trying to time the dialogue with the editing. Possibly it was a complete waste of time. ...

Neither community perished. Once the asteroid was gone, so was the danger. Both sides went on to live long lives, one group above ground, the other in their safe bunker where nothing could touch them. I guess the ending is still a little ambiguous, though. You don't really know if the above ground p...

I read the comments here before I listened to the story, so the surprise ending was spoiled, but I had to smile at the Bam. I don't think guns cause people to be violent, but it sure is easier to be violent when you have one handy. That's why those old West poker players didn't solve their disputes ...

It wasn't until this second week that I got into the story, but I think I'm in it now for the duration. Last week, I had to stop the audio after ten minutes, then listened to the rest of it the next day. Maybe it was something to do with the game show scene that didn't do it for me, or some of the s...

I'll never get asked the question about where I get my ideas, but it still annoys me that anyone would ask a question like that. Basically, it's a person with no imagination asking a person with a vivid imagination why they have a vivid imagination. They just do. And you just don't, and never will, ...

This one didn't really blow me away. It was fun, but there were parts I thought could have been done better. I didn't really buy that he was a zombie just because of the cockroaches. Even when the cockroach first appeared, I assumed Morrisey was some kind of cockroach creature or something, disguise...

Innnnnsufficient value. That's what I'd say if the story stunk, but it didn't. It was one of the best I've heard on Drabblecast, and I think a lot of that has to do with the whole sitcom theme, funny voices, laugh track and the guy in the audience who said "he said it again." This would fit right in...
