Friday Night Lightbulbs
(now on sale in aisle 4!)
Gemini Jetpack's inevitable departure comes closer to reaching its deadline. This became all the more apparent when Mel & I stopped in yesterday and discovered that their incredible video collection had been reduced to...well, a paltry fraction of the glory it had once been. So I guess the firesale they'd been hinting at happened--though damned I know when this suddenly occured.
It's rather sad to see the once mighty selection so terribly diminished, though the silver lining in the cloud is that all the still-present titles are available for purchase. And while I'm not particularly fond of the circumstances surrounding my reason for acquiring it, I finally managed to nab the
Haunted Junction box set. (A remarkable feat unto itself, since production on the DVDs was discontinued years ago, and the box set is nigh impossible to find for purchase...beyond the obvious Youtube or BitTorrent.)
So at least I have Haunted Junction to remember Gemini by. There's about 2 weeks left before it closes its doors for the last time. I'll have to make sure and stop by in the last few days to giving my fond farewells.
In other news, this morning I have been sorely tempted to rehire those flying monkeys at the store. (Bad enough I have to contend with meltdowns on days I'm not there at all, now it's happening on days I'm slated to work, but just haven't started my shift yet. Grrr, argh!) Hence the reason the subtle, sinister and probably some other alliterative word that starts with 'S' mission to find something a little more cubicle-based has begun.
Huzzah!
Which brings us to
Today's Poking: Kevin, I still need the updated Confic file lurking on your computer, as my Email never saw fit to let me mail the file to myself when we were visiting. The sooner, the happier. ^-^
