Some things will (sadly) always be relevant ... Another boyhood fantasy come to life. After doing the fembots, the next greatest avatar from my childhood was the aliens. Once I had decided to make the video, it wrote itself in a matter of hours. I built the facehugger first, and actually had expandable breathing sacs on the sides, which would inflate and deflate by blowing into some holes on the back. Building the full-grown alien warrior proved much easier than actually wearing the full-grown alien warrior. The close-up alien mouth with inner striking teeth proved the most difficult to do, but it was all cardboard, spraypaint and aluminum foil. I had started work on an egg (for to deliver the facehugger to the unfortunate senator), but three weeks had already passed, and I figured it would look just as good to have the facehugger to climb over the side of the couch anyway.

Aliens Vs Senators

Paypal Is Full Of Dookie
So if you were wondering what that smell was, it wasn't just the septic tank backing up ... Sadly based on actual events, and the utter BS involved. The original version featured an additional scene with an email sent to the BBB, which was another big waste of time.

What started out as a simple video about short-term memory loss quickly degenerated into something far worse. Its actually Tarantino's fault; I watched "Kill Bill" the night before writing. Also, the Japanese captions are actual descriptions for the characters (although don't ask what).
If Escape the Room Games Were Real
What if escape-the-room games were real? I had wanted to do this for a year or so, but wasn't sure if it would play. Turns out I was wrong. Fun to do, and should do another.

F'd In the A
We're gradually moving away from the cheap, shoddy webcam and towards the real camera, but the going is plenty slow. Apologies for using the Can-Can yet AGAIN (Christ, Dewey!!!), but I only have four classical tunes on my computer. I could download more, certainly, but this is where my blue-ribbon laziness comes in. Also, there were originally more 'naughty bits' in play during that scene (Ain't Charlene's facial expressions might give ya a clue), but Smith thought it was more smutty, less funny, so its gone. There was an additional skit, part of which I filmed outside this weekend, but which didn't involve hypothermia, so it was cut short for another day.
