The Other Side of Midnight - Richard C. Hoagland - Live Chat Thread

[K_Dubb]

I'd like to see Hoagie try to manipulate the torsion field with a sparkler.

Just imagine him swirling it around and around as fast as possible.

ha ha ha I can see it

[ShayP]

I like the idea of exploring the comic book characters as archetypes

Ditto.

[ItsOver]

What?  No John B. Wells? 

Ha!  Yeah, but Marisa Tomei.

lol suddenly this show got good .. it's like an old grateful dead concert, where you'd be bored for an hour but then all of a sudden without warning you'd hear something great and go "Wtf is this, this is fantastic?!"

[zeebo]

Plus he might frighten the sleestacks that roam his grounds.

They're still lurking out there buddy, don't let your guard down.

About the time the party favors kick in. That's what we're missing

[CozyRozie]

Perhaps.  However I am quite set in my ways.  Thank you though.

..in that case I suggest this,
"with Love from Russia"

And crawdad gumbo

Every time Etouffee posts I get a lust for crawfish.  I'll suck the faces off the little bastards.

Hoagie bravely attempts to wrest control back from the guest

Lucky little bastards

Hahahahaha!  Good analogy. 

[Dr. MD MD]

Tuning back in now. 

[K_Dubb]

Haha and shamelessly solicits a contribution for the book.  How much you wanna bet Hoagie writes a preface and the rest is farmed out to his acolytes?

[TigerLily]

Tuning back in now. 

You heard "pedophilia" and perked right up

[Nobody]

Hoagie is 72.  I'm wondering at what time he becomes straight-jacket worthy.   I'm thinking he reaches that point by the age of 80.

I'll be surprised if he makes it to 73.  I just can't see him lasting another 8 years before his speech consists solely of word salad.

It sounded to me like he was tiptoeing through word salad territory just after the start of this latest programme, to be honest.  He sounded seriously unhinged, even for Hoagland, a man for whom being unhinged is already a given.

Yeah, usually about the time the acid was really starting to kick in they'd play some Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels and everyone would wake up and start dancing again. 

[ShayP]

Lucky little bastards

You made me blush.  Then I raised my finger tips to my lips and giggled "tee-hee."    

[CozyRozie]

TL how old are you? -??- 72 or older ?

[Dr. MD MD]

How could I have heard that before I tuned in. You're cute but I get that logic isn't your strong suit. 

[TigerLily]

You're half right

Doors have at least two hinges.  I have one that only has one fully functional one but I can still close it.    Hoagie is down to his last.  The screws are definitely loose though.

[CozyRozie]

TL is our old senile female member..that's why..

[ShayP]

TL how old are you? -??- 72 or older ?

Where are your manners!?  Never ask a lady her age.  She's at least 19.5 

[CozyRozie]

more like 19.5 x 4
she just acts like a very old senile person, that's all

[Étouffée]

The guest has actually been doing heroic work not getting thrown off Hoagie's wild-tangent ride.

Speaking of comics.  Let me share. 

This was my favorite comic growing up.

Weirdo.  :

It's like they are carrying on two separate conversations. Sputnik vs. Jack Kirby

Ha!  Great, Weird and Nazis.  Right up there with Nazis on the Moon.
