Feel My Pain

| 4 Comments

My brother sent me a link the other day to a DVD set for the TV show "Sabre Rider and the Star Sheriffs." IT was a pretty bad 80's TV cartoon show. I'm not sure what it was even about really, however as soon as I read the email the theme song immediately started playng my head. How's that for sense memory? Then Styxlady posted that she was listening to "Pocket Full of Kryptonite and not one song but the ENTIRE album started going through my head.

I invite you to share my pain.

As a side note, you tube is weird.

I'm sorry I gave you the Jimmy Olsen Blues! Would it be better if I said StyxLady is a drug against war? That's what I was listening to yesterday. Damn Rev Layle and the influence of his musical taste.

Is Sabre Rider another very badly Americanized version of a Japanese anime? Robert collects Battle of the Planets and Gatchaman. It's painful to watch the same episode of the American version after the original. The American version usually makes absolutely no sense and is a hack job of an interesting and intelligent episode. Plus, Kasey Casem's voice is on there and that just ruins it for me.

Did you mean to link to Rick Astley? Because strangely, he was on a Macy's parade float singing the exact same song. If that's not a bizarre coincidence, I don't know what is.

oh...nvr mind. The Cartoon Network marketing people are brilliant.

Reading

I just finshed Codelia's Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold which is the first book of the Vorkosigan Saga.
Very good book, but the Sci-Fi bits are really secondary to the story.

Right now I'm reading The Lost Fleet Series by John Hemry/Jack Campbell It's sorta Honor Harrington but not really, though Honor Harrington even goes downhill in the later novels.
