Did anyone notice some posts get deleted recently? I have a strange feeling...like I'm being watched.

I can't quite put my finger on it....but I wonder....could it be ....?


No. I must just be paranoid.

yeah, nothing seems to be going on at the moment. the new forum software seems to be pretty impervious to outside problems.

I think that Google (Bot) that replace DeckardSmith is watching us. I thought I saw a Yahoo (Bot) a couple times, but it could have been my imagination.

Wonder where Deckard got to? Was he finally able to log off?

BTW, I've been to San Dimas, and made a point to hunt down all the locales from Bill & Ted. Funny that it's not obvious in the movie, but downtown has this old west theme. (It's sorta visible in the outside shots of the police station, if you know to look for it.) "Waterloo" is most likely really Raging Waters, about five minutes away. Couldn't figure out the mall, since there isn't any actual mall there now. (Maybe there was in 1986 or whenever they filmed.) The Holy Grail, which I did find, was the Circle K. I considered going in and asking the employee on duty when the Mongols ruled China. I decided against it, as either they hear that all the time, or (far, far more likely) they'd have no fucking clue what I was talking about.

I'd go with the latter. Even if you bluntly said "Bill and Ted was filmed right here on this very spot." they'd go "Bill and who was what where?"

Having grown up in the midwest, I always thought Circle K was a ficticious Quickmart store. Until I went to visit some relatives in AZ one Christmas and saw that they were every half mile like clockwork. I giggled every time we drove by one.








Did you hear....What was that?

Probably the same reason that I giggled every time I saw a CHiPs motorcycle. Mom told me not to believe everything I saw on TV, so I assumed CHiPs was some fictional police force. The day I moved to California I saw a CHiPs motorcycle and called home to mom to tell her about it. I didn't think Circle K was real either until I saw one.
