For all those wondering, this is my daughter Stitch. We share no blood but she is my life. She came from outer space (legally, of course) eighteen years ago and lives with me in Gloomy Norwich. I am so proud of her and raising her has been the best, most rewarding thing I’ve done in my life.

Reed Diamond portrayed detective Mike Kellerman on Homicide, Life on the Street.
“You and I both know that human desire is kicking our ass.” Toni Lewis, Erik Dellums, the brilliant and multi-talented Clark Johnson, and Reed Diamond. This scene genuinely shocked me when first broadcast.
Uh, lookit dat, youtube automatically queues to the clip w/ Andre Braugher confronting Steve Buscemi as a racist in the box. It is something! Warning, it has the N-word.

Scattered rain and clouds and fog — the golden hour was grey in Gloomy Norwich, baby! Streetlights wink on. Drowsy traffic. The night falls. Quiet. Really quiet! My typically loud neighbors (and housemates) are unusually mum! I was going to segue with “and now it’s time for Tangerine Dream…” But I’m enjoying this silence. I just heard someone sneeze in the house next door. 8:45, the big church next door marks the quarter hour with sonorous bells. A UPS truck pulls up two houses away to make a delivery. It’s late for them. Somebody packed a shitty truck. Anyway.
Tangerine Dream.
And back to soundtracks,.. HOLY SHIT I FORGOT THE HIDEOUS FIRST TRACK. Start at 3:18. Just start at 3:18. Trust me. The first track is really bad.
PS it is still very quiet.
That is all. Carry on XO

SUPERNATURAL! What a cover! The usual great shit can be found within, including a lengthy and enlightening interview w/ MOTEL HELL director Kevin Conner; the always amusing “B” Wards; Debbie Rochon’s SPIDERS BESIDE HER; Nancy Naglin’s ART HOUSE VIDEO, The Phantom’s reviews of S. Craig Zahler’s DRAGGED ACROSS CONCRETE, Takashi Miike’s FIRST LOVE, and Boon Joon-Ho’s PARASITE; a profile of the photogenic Jessie Graff; and a very groovy full-page inside-back for THE WORLD THE FLESH AND THE DEVIL.
Belated Birthday wishes to the ever-mighty JOE KANE, The Phantom of The Movies.
Jesus. He’s a dead ringer for Wayne Hussey of The Mission. Rock on, Joe! \m/

That is all. Carry on and be safe out there, Doomtroopers, Survivors, and Misfits.

Happy Monday from Gloomy Norwich. That is all.

Taken on Friday May 22 7:11 pm EST. Jesus. I was in direct sunlight. Why aren’t I in flames? If I am in sunlight and I am not dead, where are my damn sparkles? I cannot TELL YOU how sorely I was tempted for about thirteen seconds to photoshop my shitty ceiling into something stupid: a ceiling mirror, say. Ha ha, not this Doomtrooper.
Anyway, greetings from Gloomy Norwich.
I might add to this as the night progresses. We’ll see.
