Lurching from one disaster to the next.

originally posted over at PeoplesForum.com...

I just (finally) saw Pyscho Beach Party. The User Comment at IMDb sums up perfectly how I feel about this excellent, low-budget comedy, so I won't write too much here (as usual). All of the acting was superb, with Lauren Six Feet Under Ambrose giving a wonderful performance as Sally Field playing Gidget while making Sybill.

I also have to say that Kimberley Davies was a surprise. I only know her from the godawful Aussie soap opera, Neighbours, so her delightful turn as a Marilyn Monroe/Jayne Mansfield z-grade movie actress, was a revelation.

Oh and Nicholas Brendon had a lot more screen time than I expected, so that was cool. :)

He also (sort of) faced up to Channon Roe again. Channon is the actor who played "Jack" in season 3's, "The Zeppo".

They had the President of the United States saving the world by climbing into a jet fighter and blowing stuff up and this is what you yell at?

I yelled more, believe me. Probably most when Jeff Goldblum interfaced with an Alien starship using Mac OS 8, which would barely to talk to a Windows NT server on a good day.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

I thought that the idea that advanced life-forms used Macs was a basic tenet of your religion, John ;)

Damn, puns are pervasive.

I read that as "a basic telnet of your religion".

Plasmo! Welcome back! How was NZ? I'm having a party on Sat. night...want to come? E-mail me at angus@angusgordon.com and I'll send you an invite.

t edit Welcome back billytea as well!

Also, anyone else is welcome to come to my party, if you want to fly to Melbourne for the weekend.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

plasmo - you were in NZ? I visited there May before last. (I was going to say "spring" but then I realized that would be ambiguous.) My brother and I were visiting his girlfriend, who has been playing in a percussion ensemble based in Wellington.

Did you have a good trip? I loved NZ, and wish we could have stayed longer.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Welcome back billytea as well!

Well, thank you. On the down side, I'm afraid it's left me with insufficient leave or funds to attend your party. I trust this won't overly handicap the festivities.

Welcome back Billytea :)

Oooh, NZ was lovely! I'd never visited the North Island before. There were plenty of alternative fashion stores, record shops, and cute bars in Auckland.

Ouise, I haven't made it to Wellington. I hear the best in NZ music and fashion is there? I love the South Island too.

Kayaked for three days in the Bay of Islands. Dolphins, mangroves, phosphorescent water at night, mosquitos the size of big daddy-long-legs! Being in the middle of nowhere and meeting artists who crack open the champagne in honour of company. Was a great holiday. I think I lost weight :o

Thanks for the offer Angus, sounds good. email pending. :)

I'd like to visit NZ. Haven't done so yet. (Incidentally, while at the SD Zoo I saw this book, Hotspots, which covers as it puts it the Earth's biologically richest and most endangered terrestrial ecoregions. New Zealand was one of them.)

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Plus, New Zealand has kakapos.
