A few days ago, while hanging out with some trans friends of mine at a local coffee shop, I got into some rather geeky sci-fi conversation. It’s really awesome to not only have a growing number of trans friends, but also (at least one) rather geeky friend: a trans woman who can actually speak some Klingon!
I don’t usually do impressions, but… Star Wars and Darth Vader came up during the conversation. Jumping on an opportunity to get a chuckle, I did a quick impression of Darth Vader saying a line from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. In my best Darth Vader voice I said, “Obi-Wan never told you the truth about your faatherrrr.”
I came across this in a local paper. It has not been doctored up. This is exactly how it appears in the full page ad. It clearly illustrates the evolution of man is, in fact, crossdressing… or so it is in the automotive business. Hey – it’s a start, right? Continue reading The Evolution of Man is… Crossdressing→
Something lighthearted and fun for this Friday: It’s snow season around here and I recently enjoyed some fun in it. The snowman started out normal enough, but ended up turning out distorted – kind of like Frosty’s demented radio-active cousin. It’s been a few years since making my last snowman, so I was a bit out of practice. Since he was already pretty odd looking, I threw on some horns and “gonna grab you” arms and hands to complete the look. The little snow puppy turned out pretty well considering I’ve never made one before.
After snapping a photo, I was reminded of those crazy Calvin and Hobbes snowman-based cartoons. I can’t hold a candle to the comedic genius expressed in those comics, but still wanted to share my little construction-in-the-cold. My wife doesn’t care for the “horned snowman of doom”, but I got a kick out of it and hope it brings a smile to your face, too. Continue reading Snow Puppy and the Horned Snowman of Doom→
“Shhhhh! Be veeeeery quiet! I’m hunting SQUIRREL!”
When it comes to squirrel hunting, I’m about as successful as old Elmer Fudd going after his wascally widdle wabbit. Now why on earth would a nice, peace-loving t-girl like me be hunting down a cute, little, fluffy squirrel with its cute, little, bushy tail? Continue reading T-Girl Vs. the Evil Squirrel of Doom→
My wife and I were in for the night and decided to watch a movie together on our big screen, 5-speaker TV. “The Watcmen” was our film of choice. It seemed interesting and neither one of us knew much about it beforehand.
Several minutes into the movie we heard a very loud BOOM! It sounded like it might have come from the back yard. Although I’ve never heard what a meteor sounds like when it crashes, it sounded a bit like that. We were both startled and I paused the movie. What the hell could have made such a noise? Was our house still fully intact? Continue reading Was That an Explosion in Our Backyard?→
The amazing, mysterious, all-knowing Magic 8 Ball of truth. You know the deal – ask it a yes or no question, give it a shake, then turn it over and peer into its magic blue window of knowledge. Do you believe in the wisdom offered by a plastic 8 ball filled with blue mystery liquid surrounding a plastic icosahedron of answers? I can’t say I do, but it’s a lot of fun to play with anyway! By the way, I think “icosahedron” is the coolest word since “sargalesis” (look it up). Continue reading My Magic 8 Ball→
