PAX Experience Day 2

Hey guys! I finished fixing all the pictures on the original post, and the Day 1 page.

Also added some more stuff on Day 1 that I saw, including cosplay pics and Brawndo!

PAX Experience Day 1

So, unfortunately I was wayyy too tired and busy at PAX to make live updates. Whatever. Nobody was checking the site until they got home from PAX anyway, which it turns out we had a big bump in unique visits on Wednesday 9/3. So, I guess the buttons worked! (For those who don’t know, there was a HUGE buttons-exchange where people designed and purchased buttons online to trade at PAX. My buttons can be seen here.) So yeah, sorry my update is so late. What do you want for free?

Anyway, on to my full PAX experience!

Update: PAX Days 1 & 2 have been completed. Day 3 is coming Monday!

It’s coming, in 2 days.  A big HOWDY-DO to any PAX visitors reading this!

So, somehow If Magazine got an exclusive interview with producer Erwin Stoff, where he revealed that he just signed a deal with Fox to product a live action Cowboy Bebop movie.

According to Mr. Stoff, the deal was just recently signed, so there’s no details available as of yet. More on the interview after this break.

I found this among some Joss Whedon news… It seems that Mr. Whedon has created a new internet mini-series, namely “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog“.

From doctorhorrible.net: “During the WGA strike Joss Whedon started writing a three part musical series for the internet. Each of the three episodes will be approximately ten minutes each.”

You’re going to want to read more after the break… (more…)

Found this article on io9 linking to The Guardian, which explains that The Prisoner, a wholeheartedly WSO supported classic, will begin broadcasting on AMC next year.

It has also been confirmed that Sir Ian McKellen and Jim Caviezel (The Passion of the Christ, he was J.C.) will star in the new version. McKellan will play the role of Number Two, while Caviezel will play the role formerly pwned by Patrick McGoohan, the imprisoned Number Six.

The show will be a six-hour miniseries produced by the UK’s ITV, who produced the original show in 1967.

Found this great instructable with many different ways to open beer bottles. A few of them are actually pretty creative and useful! This instructable explains the following beer-reaping methods:

• The pry method
• The thump method
• The push up method
• Using a hook
• The empty bottle method

Of course, I typically buy twist-offs, so I don’t have this problem too often. But there are many brands that still use the traditional caps that make it all the more frustrating when there’s metal in the way between your mouth and delicious, thirst-quenching beer.

Also, check the comments for more beer-opening techniques, like the ball-point pen method. One commenter says that all proper beer comes in cans. Maybe on the moon, but not in America, buddy! The best beer comes in bathtubs!

Following up from my original Bacon Salt post, I am continuing to taste-test this wonderful seasoning on all sorts of different foods. Tonight I tried a piece of leftover sausage pizza from my local Pat’s Pizza shop.

Big ups to my local Pat’s on Philadelphia Pike in Claymont, DE. Anyway, Bacon Salt is absolutely fantastic on pizza. It’s like it was specially made for it! Soooo baconey and salty… it’s just so good! I imagine that this would make even week-old pizza taste great!

So yeah, that’s pretty much it. Thumbs up for Bacon Salt on pizza!

As a follow-up to this post, this week brings us another Venture Bros. themed t-shirt!

The current t-shirt is titled “Dr. Henry Killinger”. It features the Dr.’s signature red skull that is featured on his black coat, as well as on his Magic Murder Bag (not included). You can order the t-shirt from the AstroBaseGo webpage here.

While you’re at it, you might want to also check out a cool custom action figure page that I found, called Sillof’s Workshop. This guy has made his own Venture Bros. action figures, which look pretty darn cool. Also his site features other custom figures such as Dune, and Steampunk Star Wars.
