Lifelong Mainer. Star Wars fan nearly as long. Also love comic books, book books, David Lynch, David Simon, David Milch . . . just all the Davids. Red Sox & Oilers fan (covering the coasts). Pinko liberal because "progress" is in progressive.

Because at age 5 in 1977, seeing #StarWars on the big screen was a religious experience:

I love this movie! Though I do wish we'd gotten the "Full Lynch" version.
#Dune
#DavidLynch
On this day in 1984, #Dune as directed by #DavidLynch premiered in the US. It's one of my favourite films of all time.

Recent addition to the collection. Little-known work by my favorite superhero artist, George Pérez, illustrations for his brother, David's, memoir.

I named my fists Funk & Wagnalls because they drop knowledge on your head . . . and knowledge is heavy(?)
I named my fists Faster and Pussycat. Guess what they both do?

(OMG, this is so not me. I’m a runner or a get-behind-me-er, but in no way a fighter.)
I named my fists MSG and Garlic Powder, because your face is in season for some tenderizing.

If I’m spending $100k on a personal vehicle, it needs to be able to enter the world inside the computer where man has never been.

My wife made a cranberry pecan pie for today’s feast…because my mother only had time to make five pies, two turkeys + stuffing, two casseroles, four sides, two types of rolls, and cornbread, for the 29 people showing up.
