    Out of Sight, Out of Mind



    Here's a storage solution that is hardly ever utilized these days, hide all your unwanted junk behind the most discordant image imaginable. That way, when you get the urge to throw something out, the pattern will overload your senses, you'll likely wet yourself and forget your first name.



    It's the Batman Blu-Ray Giveaway Contest!


    To Celebrate the release of the classic 1966 Batman movie on Blu-Ray and thanks to the good folks at Fox Marketing, I have my first (but hopefully not last) contest! I now have two shiny new copies of this classic film to give to you!

    To enter, simply answer these (really hard) skill testing questions:


    1) Who was a better Riddler, Frank Gorshin or John Astin?

    2) What does Batman have trouble getting rid of in the film?


    Send your answers to this email address and I'll pick the winners on Monday. 3rd runner up will win some Plaidstallions trading cards.

    Dynamic Disc Features New, Exclusive High Definition Extras, Plus A BD Industry First,
    Nelson Riddle’s Cool Jazz Score Presented As An Isolated Music Track In Lossless Audio

    CENTURY CITY, Calif. – Citizens of Gotham City shall fear not when the heroic Caped Crusader and his crime-fighting chum, Boy Wonder, stop dastardly villains from de-hydrating the planet in the original full-length bat-film, BATMAN: THE MOVIE SPECIAL EDITION, arriving on high definition Blu-Ray Disc for the first time July 1st from Fox Home Entertainment. Starring Adam West (Batman) and Burt Ward (Robin), this 1966 spin-off of the popular “Batman” television series features all four of the hero’s most diabolical and cunning adversaries: the clown prince of crime, The Joker (Cesar Romero); the count of criminal conundrums, The Riddler (Frank Gorshin); the pompous waddling master of fowl play, The Penguin (Burgess Meredith); and the fiendish feline, The Catwoman (Lee Meriwether). Directed by Leslie H. Martinson (PT 109, Rescue from Gilligan’s Island), who later won a Golden Gryphon for his efforts, the colorful and over-the-top film featured a groovy and swank score by Academy Award® winner* Nelson Riddle.

    Brimming with brand new and exclusive high definition bat-features, the Blu-ray Disc includes “Batman: A Dynamic Legacy,” a tribute to the caped crusader and look at Gotham’s evil villains in “Gotham City’s Most Wanted”; a 360 degree navigational tour of the Batmobile; and an isolated score in 5.1 DTS HD Master Audio (Lossless), an industry first for Blu-Ray Disc that allows viewers to listen to the score only.

    I remember coming across similar storage units when helping people to move. The cardboard was almost always warped and quickly collpasing in on itself.

    I think one of my Grandmothers had some of those things. Come to think of it, I think they matched one of the couches she had in the basement.
