The UN comes to the Multiplex: Incubus!!!
From Youtube. Oh lord, please don’t let the Shat be misunderstood!
In the 1960s, William Shatner was in a horror movie called INCUBUS. It is the only movie to be filmed completely in Esperanto. It’s bizarre. Here’s the trailer.
PSA: 6/6/06 festEVIL
Some of my readers will realize just why this lies so close to my wee, shrivelled heart. Of course it has its own blog here which is where all blame for the English that follows should be directed. We thank you for your attention to this matter.

streets& help make the densest, hellest festEVIL north of the 49th parallel. come 5:30ish or earlier or later; however, refrain from commencing noize until precisely 6:06:06.
psh!
at that time you will begin the din***the 00scillation 00rkestra will audibly materialize out of thin air, as will the PIT. PIT noizicians are stationary. 00rkestra noizicians are mobile, & usually wheeled. bike trailers are encouraged; you may carry your own noize or PIT members if you so desire.
***there is no conductor. therefore we MUST sychronize our watches.
***the concert will go on for as long as we noizicians hear fitting.
***you should supply your own power source if needed.some orchestras have string sections, wind, rhythm. we have Beast, child of PIT & 00rchestra. if you are PIT & you would like to help make a Beast, find a trailer before 6pm, make evil introductions & perhaps you will be invited to climb in.
ghrlooombh mbh kktkttkshsktt mb mnhnn!
festEVIL beckons musicians noizicians bikers humans & buzzing insects of all types. we must make our own evil to defeat it.
Spoken Word Shatner
Click at own risk. This is William Shatner, circa 1972 on the Dinah Shore show demonstrating his command of early spoken word poetry. It is rather disturbing to realize that, while he has not gotten any better in the thirty some odd years since then, he hasn’t actually gotten any worse, either. And yet the man became a star; there is much to be said for the star-making value of perfect hair and tight velour.
Mulroney and Kerry: the lost years
Wow, didn't they used to be hip, back in the Sixties? Who knew they played backup on Louie, Louie! Here they are, flanking the other Kingsmen; does this mean Kerry's in favour of a monarchy?
