The Storm: Angry Mike
Herkimer! and Friends #565

Just so nobody thinks I’m making the subject of this storyline up, here’s some reading you can do on this wonderful, growing, and slightly silly social movement.
Here’s one from Rolling Stone.
And from CNN.
The world we live in just keeps getting cooler and cooler.
Thanks to reader Saira for the CNN article.
I caught an advance screening of Land of the Lost last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. It perfectly captured the wonderfully, bizarre nature of the Sid and Marty Krofft television series. Completely original fantasy. Campy throwback aside, it was fun and funny. Will Ferrell was as good as ever, with Danny McBride as the perfect humor accompaniment. It was a couple of comments from Mr. McBride that made me cringe when I realized the little girl sitting next to me was hearing things she probably shouldn’t be. It was definitely a big, summer movie done right. Two thumbs up. Also, I love the pop culture loaded but otherwise absurd Sleestaks. I’d watch a movie just staring them…
Summer is practically here, so I thought I might share some of my favorite things about my favorite season!
1. It’s warm, so I don’t have to spend half the day in front of a heating lamp.
2. The days are longer so I spend less time weeping in the dark.
3. Christmas is closer than it was last month!
4. It’s easier to pretend I’m in Disneyland.
5. The neighborhood cats have frogs to harass for a while.
6. I have frogs to eat!
7. Summer blockbusters like 17 Again! Oh Zac.
8. Sleeping on a sunny window sill.
9. The ice cream man.
And of course 10., the way bumblebees feel in my throat.
Well, there’s my top ten favorite things about summer! What are yours? (It’s the bumblebees, isn’t it?)
