Spawnling. Of. Eval.
Oct. 15th, 2004 06:26 pmHere I am, innocently winding down from a hard day at work (I'm still in "yay! I have a job!" mode, so I don't mind), reading my f-list and listening to the Carmen Sandiego soundtrack 'cause I just saw Rockapella in concert last week & that reminded me of how much I love them.
Next thing I know, the resident 14-week-old spawnling of evil (he's much bigger than in the icon, but still too small to be a spawn of evil) has jumped up on the little shelves above the computer and knocked both speakers *and* the network router back behind the desk. The speakers wound up upside down on the floor, with a faint tinny little voice still crooning "let's take a trip to Niagara, this time we'll look at the falls." Fortunately the desk is on rollers so I could retrieve them easily, and everything is still working. But... grrr... whose bright idea was this, anyway, to bring such a destructive little force of chaos into the household?
Oh, yeah. Mine. :-)

A lot of the comments, like the whole "Yenta Barney" arc, grew out of email conversations I had with folks on a slash listserv while watching the show for the first time in 15 years on TV Land (and seeing it in a whole new light).
I'd totally forgotten about the one where Harris has to shave off his mustache and dress in drag.
That one I remembered from the *first* time I watched it when it was first on. I remember my mom explaining to me about the reference to the movie Laura. Ah... I was a Teenage Pre-slasher!
