I’ve added some products (mostly t-shirts and the like) to the Elseworld Gift Shop, In particular, everyone should check out the new Military Teddy Bears just because they are so cute you could just die. max1975 and I have been talking and hopefully we’ll be able to put really cheap posters up soon.

on having sort of written a little bit of fiction kinda
by mav • • 1 Comment
and so I wrote something for sui66iy’s political satire challenge in . I’m not sure it quite qualifies as “political satire” or even a story really (its only 350 words long), but the point is that i wrote something, so maybe this is the start of a long tradition of new creativity on my part.…

by mav • • 15 Comments
In the mighty tradition of living by committee I am posting my latest decision for livejournaldom assembled for comment and ideas. So beststephi and sui66iy are planning a party in the next month or so as I have mentioned before. I was stricken with something of an epiphany today, and I am wondering what others…

by mav • • 16 Comments
beststephi and I went to the zoo today. In some ways, its really nice to go there and take pictures of a bunch of animals that I don’t otherwise see on a regular basis. But in a lot of other ways, being at the zoo just makes me really really sad. The animals that get…

so much for that — and now the Friday Five
by mav • • 7 Comments
well the tape is done (its a little over 2 min, so they might just automatically disqualify me) and its in the mail (fed ex). So that’s pretty much it for that. I don’t expect that I’ll hear from them again, but ah well… the dream is out there or something. I’ll say one thing…

and the obvious problem
by mav • • 2 Comments
I have no idea what to put in a 2 min video about myself that would inspire TV execs to cast me in a real life Truman show. beststephi and hurtsogood have both suggested that I talk about Jammy Jam and perhaps reenact the fabled striptease. I dunno. Seems like as good an idea as…

LX is dead, long live LX…
by mav • • 3 Comments
so after speaking with sui66iy about a recent post in his journal regarding writing stories based on people’s suggestions on LJ, we have decided to “put the band back together.” That is to say, LX lives… in a manner of speaking. This isn’t your father’s LX. This isn’t about hanging out at the Cage. This…

Trying out for Big Brother…
by mav • • 9 Comments
So I just filled out the Big Brother application. It’s 8 pages long, and actually pretty detailed. I still have to make a video tape and get the whole thing sent in by Friday. I would just like to point out for the record that beststephi has specifically instructed me to “sleep with whoever I…

I listen to the Howard Stern show on the radio on my drive in to work every day. There is a commercial that has been playing lately for a product called “Elongate” which is a pill that men can take to increase their “length and girth.” The product is “guaranteed” or its free. And best…

dude! all politicians should wear masks!

The Great Sasuke won a seat on the Japanese Legislature in their election yesterday. Some governor is upset because he plans to wear the mask through his entire term! I think all politicians should wear masks. papertygre says that would make them seem more like the bandits they pretend not to be, but I think…

how the hell did that happen? As has been my custom for the last couple years, I avoided official carnival events. After I got my laptop back, I did Silkys. beststephi and I briefly considered hitting the TMBG concert after Silky’s on Friday, but thought better of it once we saw how long the line…

The Vagabond is dead, long live the Vagabond…
by mav • • 0 Comments
Finally sold the Vagabond MK I yesterday. Got $125 for it. This doesn’t seem like a lot, but given that its currently a 2 ton paperweight, and that I only paid $1 for it in the first place, the 12500% profit is pretty awesome. Not I just need to fix some of the nuances on…
