when outter space was cool

so at Master's, a good number of us have spent a lot of time not watching TV. when I go back home for breaks, I inevitbly find myself sitting in front of the TV, realizing that I haven't really missed a whole lot being in media secclusion for more than half the year.

but there's been a few practical things that I was able to learn, anyways.

1. If your dad is the leader of a mutant alien posse, you can basically do whatever you want. or whatever you don't want. like go to school or wear a tshirt.

(that's right - even Dorno's mom could take you. but you wouldn't wanna try it. I mean - would you wanna mess with that crowd? I wouldn't.)

2. outter space lonely, especially if you're the universe's only hope for intergalactic peace. you'd better bring a couple of teen-agers and a monkey to keep things interesting.

3. all in all, outter space was a lot cooler in the 60's. but look out - just a few decades down the road, the planet earth gets pretty awesome as well. that's right - earth, right at the turn of the 3rd millenia, takes one small intergalactic leap into universal awesomeness, thanks to a renegade planet that collided with the moon in the year 1994. it might look like a scary place, but Thundarr and the gang have it all under control. do you really think a band of malicious mutants and ruffian robots can really stand a chance against a space barbarian, his hairless (and shirtless) wookie side kick and his trusty sorceress? I don't think so.
