Some folks on this blog have asked about my “brush” with the Church of Scientology and the impertinent question I asked that got me chased out of one of their centers by a livid, screaming Scientologist. Here’s the story, which I wrote up many years ago. It happened in the fall 1978 and spring of 1979. It remains a story that I tell to this day, part weird, part spooky, part hilarious. Happy Halloween! Of course, because it’s one of my tales it involves a bike and a girl. ”- Dan Casey’s blog: Roanoke Times metro columnist writes what's on his mind – Roanoke.com » My strange and hilarious brush with the Church of Scientolgy Sep

“Shoot” was too political, too full of the wrong kinds of opinion and observations, and Ellis resigned from “Hellblazer” because it would not be published as he had written it and he was unwilling to compromise. In other words, John Constantine couldn’t, ultimately, provide an outlet for Ellis’ voice. That, he would find in Spider Jerusalem and “Transmetropolitan” a series that began before his “Hellblazer” run and lasted, at Vertigo, for a few years after he left John Constantine behind. “Planetary” #7 is where all of this happens, right in front of us, on the page. Warren Ellis saying goodbye to Vertigo and hello to Vertigo, running in the shadows of Alan Moore while putting him to rest. The king is dead, they say. Long live the king. But sometimes the king isn’t the king. Sometimes he’s just Sting in a trenchcoat and he turns into Hunter S. Thompson with tattoos. And sometimes that matters more than you might expect. ”- When Words Collide: 8.16.2010 - Comic Book Resources Aug

all, the place where Kevin Eastman and I created the Turtles in November
of 1983, but much more important, at least to me, it’s where Jeannine
and I really started our lives together, and where we got married in the
house’s small back yard. (And it IS small… much smaller than I
remembered!)
However, as we discussed it later, that kind of nostalgic fantasy is fun to indulge in up to a point, but it quickly gets bogged down in practicalities. The house would need to be taken care of, and we would be absentee landlords. We would very likely not stay in it often (it was a lovely place to live in some twenty-seven years ago, and closer to the ocean — about ten miles as opposed to about a hundred and twenty — than where we live now, but if we were to buy a place closer to the ocean — something we’ve talked about, and continue to consider — it would have to be a LOT closer to the ocean — like, within sight of it). This house in Dover is on a small side street, surrounded fairly closely by densely-packed houses and apartment buildings… not really our dream location. So, as much as it appeals to the nostalgic fantasy part of me, I think it’s probably wisest to just hold on to the good memories of the place. — PL” - palblog: Dover dream Aug

Bravo routinely airs two episodes of “The West Wing” back to back
every morning. Curiously, with no explanation, they jumped over an
episode this morning. They skipped the one entitled “Faith Based
Initiative.” I wonder why. Well, let’s check the episode description: Okay. I find that…interesting. PAD ”- Interesting Omission on Bravo | PeterDavid.net |
