Go figure.

Funny, I would have figured "Wonder Woman".

WTF is Star Blazers?

Confession: When I was quite young, I used to play Dukes of Hazzard with these two neighbours of mine, Jake and Will. They never *once* let me be Daisy. I always had to be Uncle Jesse, while they were Bo and Luke. Uncle-fucking-Jesse. They always said "I wish we had a Daisy," "It's too bad we don't have a Daisy" etc. etc. Story of my fuckin life. The next time I'm home around the holidays, I think I'm going to have to kick both of their asses. Bastards.

Please remember to bring a severed arm.

I met the real-life KITT at a car show. Michael Knight wasn't there. The car wouldn't talk to me. He would just spout out random KITT-isms. I've never been so disappointed in my life.

And then KITT showed up on Boy Meets World as Mr. Feeney.

Edited to add that I'm responding to this post b/c I remember the back-to-back star-studded programming of DoH and KR...

Did you expect Homer Simpson to pop out from under the hood?

Better Uncle Jesse than Enos.

But you should still kick both their asses.

No, I never pretended I was wonder woman, that I recall.

I was probably just too young. I do remember thinking she was pretty cool though.

Star Blazers was an anime series, I believe there were 3 parts. The first part involved our heros leaving earth in search of a world where they could find the cure to whatever the problem was. Of course there were bad guys, for some reason, their skin was blue.

Anyway they showed the trip out and back. I don't recall if they ever showed the third part, if they did, I had lost interest by then.

I had the best toy in the world, a big box from some appliance or another, and that was my fighter plane.

When I was in elementary school, boys used to chase me around the playground (much like today, but I digress) to get me to play Star Wars with them (I would have gotten to be the girl character at least). I never wanted to play because I wanted to play on the jungle gym and boys were icky.

However at home whenever we played Charlie's Angels, I was always Sabrina because I was youngest and never got to pick (wanted to be Kelly, of course).

It is true. It is awesome to be me.

I thought of saying E/O -- as much power as Leagl with half the work, but then decided that you probably find the work fulfilling, and get E/O to do more than her share of it.

Or Cooter, for that matter. (Hi Bürger!)

But, of course you would. The parallels are uncanny.

1. A powerful, almost god-like figure.

2. Able to compel the truth from others against their will.

3. Came from an island exclusively populated by women.

4. Piloted her own really cool transparent airplane.

Hell, who wouldn't find that appealing?

(1) Shape Shifter. I mean, once you've got world domination, what else is there?

World domination is not all it's cracked up to be. It sounds glamorous, sure, but it's really more water treatment and traffic light synchronization than I'd care to deal with.

Yes, and I too am tall with flowing brown hair and a killer bod.


What? It could happen.


And yes, it is true, e/o does a great deal.
