PDR just got home from one of those wedding things. This one was for his fellow Contains2man, Marq. The guy who programmed this website so that it blames him if it can’t find a page. Like this. This makes PDR the only Contains2 alumni who never did that wedding thing.
Haiku!
Marq did a wedding.
PDR bought no present.
‘Cause that’s how he rolls.
In other news, PDR has started bringing back his Shotgun Professor stories starting with the first one. I’ll probably put up one a month, and when if gets to the point where I left off before, hopefully I will pick it up again until I finish the story.

So, before work on Friday I wanted to finish the story I started last Friday the Thirteenth, so I did that. Since I’m not getting much work done on the Hover Head story I wanted to do, it is good to something with those characters again. Too bad I had no real idea what I was doing and I wanted to get it done before work (on Friday the Thirteenth) and thus ended with a story where even the characters don’t know how to end it. Oh well. The best thing about finishing a story is that it clears a little bit of space in my brain, and that has been accomplished. So that’s good.
Haiku!
Irresponsible!
You let the tiger get out.
Go to your room, Bill.
I had a movie idea the other day that I figure I should write down to prove I had it before it is inevitably made by someone else: Undead Monsters playing Russian Roulette while talking about their lives. Possible ending: the bullet goes through the ghost’s head and hits the mummy.
