Ming-Duc is Aweseome

Especially now that he's hosting the images for this site. Contemplating saying goodbye to our friend blogger and pointing a domain like thehallway.ca or somesuch to a wordpress blog that we can use. (if it's hard to use I won't do it.)

I've got a hand-sewn template that should be easy enough to migrate to a different tag system.

Nothing immediate, just musing.

On another note, as metablogging is pointless, I just saw Eternal Sunshing of the Spotless Mind tonight. Loved it, I especially liked Jim Carey and David Cross' characters. What is it about comedians that makes them able to do dark characters so well? Does it have to do with some kind of underlying bitterness I sense in quite a few comedians? Carey's character isn't dark so much as it is.. sad and gloomy, and he pulls it off excellently.

This is what real, good science fiction is, where it is a way of drawing some social contradiction or problem into much sharper relief. For some reason when it works well people don't even call it science fiction.
