Monty Python: The Hobbit
« on: October 20, 2005, 02:29:44 am »
Just Kidding.   ;)

I've been going through something of a long dark tea-time of the soul and am just now starting to see light at the end of the tunnel and wanted to check in.  Hopefully, the light doesn't turn out to be an oncoming train, but I tend to be optimistic about such things.

In fact, I very well MAY do "Monty Python: There and Back Again" since ideas have been kicking around in my head for quite a while now... and that gets mighty painful if Kadh is the one doing the kicking.

How has everyone been doing?

Cheers,

Hsta

Hsta, has anyone mentioned you're a miserable, no-good tease? ;D

Indeed. I'm still thinking of doing that Klingon version of LOTR...

I had in mind Cheech & Chong's LoTR myself.

Hsta! As Larry said, you miserable tease! *grin*

Good to hear from you again, and to know that I'm not the only optimist left in the world. I just read both Dirk Gently novels. Classic stuff. If you ever do Dirk Gently: LotR, I'll read it!

Scratch that. I read anything you put out.

Update:  This is definitely in the works, though now I hear the studio version will be split into two movies.  And no Peter Jackson?!  Oh, you just know that is going to have an effect on my parody version...

Also, now that my 8 month old daughter Jadzia is out of the hospital, I should be able to FINALLY get the extended edition MP:LOTR pdf's I finished two weeks ago hosted on the XC Bard's Corner this week.

Hey Hsta, congrats on the baby and getting her home.

Jadzia? Seriously? Well, lets hope she grows up to be as beautiful and smart as the "real" Jadzia!  ;D

Hey Hsta, congrats on the baby and getting her home.

Thanks, we find out Friday how much longer she will be on the IV antibiotics.  She is really back to her old self again now... well, as "old" as 8 months can be considered... heh.  Anyway, she is being able to walk and crawl again at full speed.  I can't begin to tell you how HUGE a relief that is after going so long without her moving her left leg at all.

On a side note, she has developed a serious mistrust of anyone coming near her wearing blue.

Jadzia? Seriously? Well, lets hope she grows up to be as beautiful and smart as the "real" Jadzia!  ;D

Yes, indeed, her name is Jadzia Marie Haines and, naturally, her nickname is "Baby Dax."  She is named after my wife's favorite Star Trek character.  There is family history on my wife's side with this since her younger sister Kalynda, Jadzia's aunt, was named after an alien female from TOS.  In fact, out of my 4 kids, my eldest daughter is the only one that doesn't have a "Star Trek" name.  Instead, Annie is named after my older sister Sueanne that died of bone cancer when she was 14.  In age between Annie and Jadzia are my two boys James T. and Benjamin.

My best friend I was in the Gulf War with named his son Montgomery Scott, so it might to be more common than one would suppose.

P.S. "Jadzia" also happens to be the Polish word for "Princess" so that is what we tell all the non-Trekkers who ask about her name.
