I guess Cubby was a really popular nickname for little boys in the 50s. Then it just went away. That's interesting and weird. Should we bring it back?

The subway train is stopped in a tunnel. I hear a sort of clicking overhead. Probably Mystery Subway Liquid dripping, but I'd like to think it's the sound of the claws of subway monsters as they scamper over the cars.

Thurston Moore is the youngest person named Thurston.

I think The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover are the real Fantastic 4.

I never got into Sailor Moon, but that show had a decent theme song.

Sailor Venus! Sailor Mercury!

It's interesting that the Flintstones and the Rubbles bowl and golf and have a weekly bridge night. I'm more than a little jealous that they have these regular activities.

I don't like it when my cat's sitting on my lap all nice, and then he gets up and runs away real fast like he forgot he left the iron on or the roast in the oven.

If I had a racehorse, I would name her Patti LuPony.

There should be a medical drama (like Quincy or Dr. Quinn or House), but about Dr. Zaius. I do not care that he wasn't a medical doctor. In my show (Dr. Zaius M.D.) he is. If successful, I would like to create a show like Doogie Howser, wherein he's a young ape doctor.

You should come to the Oz Con next year! I'm not into Oz, but I'm married to someone who is (primarily the books), and so I go to these things. I was weirdly pleased to hear about your familiarity. Check it!

NYC has adopted this weird new campaign calling itself the City of Yes. I hate it, and it just sounds bizarre. It reminds me of The House of Yes (1997). I had to watch that in one of my film classes in college, and I wasn't crazy over it.

Let's just call it Fun City, like people did in the 70s.

Hello out there.

Here I am. Now what?
