More La Jolla Photoblogging

I have been to La Jolla so many times now that it’s hard to find anything new to shoot.  I probably only have one or two more posts’ worth after this one.

Priming-The-Pump La Jolla Photoblogging

Turns out I left off of the La Jolla photoblogging a little prematurely last year; I still had a handful of photos left.  And since I’m flying back out there tomorrow, it seemed like this would be a good time to get them out of the way…

Friday Quote & Panda Blogging

This week’s quote is from a strange, underrated little film called Six-String Samurai. I’m not sure I can even begin to explain it…

Last kid that crossed that line, I had to summon up the spinach monster with my rock ‘n’ roll magic.  Spinach monster grabbed him, pulled him underground, made him eat spinach all day.  Rumor has it, kid… he’s still there.

And, of course, there’ll be other people’s wee baby pandas…

SD Panda 5

There’s more where that came from.

Friday Quote & Panda Blogging

This week’s quote is the introductory narration from the inimitable Ninja Vengeance, which would perhaps be more accurately titled Inept Fugitive With Some Ninja Training:

Like the fathers of your grandfathers, it was your destiny to become a ninja.  From the teachers of far-off lands, your ancestors discovered the secrets of the universe, and the means to complete joy in existence.  For this, they were hunted down in their mountain homes by religionists who feared the potential of enlightened common men.  Thus was born the legend of The Invisible Warriors – mountain mystics who guided their powers into ways of protecting the innocents that they loved, and the truths that they sheltered.

Yours is a legacy of service to those in need, protection to those in distress, and strength to those who are overpowered.  Your art is Ninjitsu, The Way Of Stealth – silent means of working your will without action.  Your reward is spiritual growth, the opportunity to be a conscious part of the scheme of totality.  Welcome… to the family.

Did I mention that almost every single cast member never appeared in any other movie?  And for good reason.

And, of course, there’ll be other people’s pandas…

SD Panda 1

Awww.

Friday Quote & Panda Blogging

This week’s quote is once again from the incomparable Lockjaw: Rise Of The Kulev Serpent:

No, listen, I am sorry about your wife, but that was an accident.  You drew us to death.  That sucks.  YOU suck.

(Believe me, you don’t want to know)

And, of course, there’ll be other people’s pandas…

Friday Quote & Croc Blogging

This week’s quote is from the cheesy SyFy horror movie Lockjaw: Rise Of The Kulev Serpent, featuring DMX:
