Organization: Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, (USA)


   Sam Kinison was going to a show with his wife of less than a week. He
was driving in his Pontiac TransAm and wasn't wearing a seat belt. The 17
year old kid who was driving in a pickup truck hit him head on. From what I
understand, the kid and his friend had been drinking. Kinison hit the
windshield. His friends, who were following Kinison in another car, said
that Kinison got out of his car and started walking around, saying "I don't
want to die. I don't want to die." They begged Kinison to get down on the
ground, even though he only looked like he had minor face and head scratches.
Kinison's best friend was holding Kinison is his arms when he said "But why?"
, as if he was talking to somebody that wasn't there. He then said "Ok. Ok.
Ok.", and died with that last word. His best friend said Kinison's last "OK"
was very peaceful, as if he was relaxing into the idea that he has to die. He
said it sounded like Kinison was talking "upstairs". Kinison was a preacher
before he turned comic. His friends said he was a very giving person, and that
he was setteling down and trying to "get into the mainstream" (clean up his
act). He stopped drinking about a year ago.

 I saw him twice here in Cleveland and have both his albums. Although he did
do a lot of dark humor, nobody can deny the fact that Kinison was one very
funny guy. His screaming wildman antics are unlike anybody else. It isn't
often that I feel this bad about somebody passing on. I feel as if a part of
my heart has been taken from me. This man had so much more to offer comedy.
Kinison often joked about drunk driving, so it is very ironic that he died
by the hands of a drunk driver (If this person was drunk, which is what the
local radio station was saying). I believe that he might very well have died
for a reason- to let others know that certain things are very important in
this world. Heck, I might even start wearing my seatbelt, and that is saying
alot.

Sorry if this offends anyone, but this sort of thing is starting
to really piss me off.  Why are some people so opposed to having
groups for TV shows with popular followings?  I think this is
absolutely absurd.  Many of these groups have mailing lists
which are very heavily used, but they can't get a newsgroup 
because of such bigotry.  

Just as an example, I run the Beverly Hills 90210 mailing list.  
We currently have 133 subscribers.  It currently takes about 45 
minutes to deliver each message received.  Archives of messages 
since the list started in late September total 1.6 megabytes, 
and 1128 messages, not counting administrivia.  The list was also 
out of commission from mid-December until early January.  This 
isn't all that unusual.  There are other lists which are equally 
popular.  But if I brought up the question of a newsgroup here
in alt.config, I pretty much guarantee I'd run into opposition.

I might also mention that the Parker Lewis Can't Lose mailing
list is pretty popular as well, and was featured in a segment
on Entertainment Tonight just this last weekend.  I remember
just a little while ago when they tried to get an alt group and
were eventually laughed off.

Anyone opposed to the Quantum Leap group, please come up with
valid reasons or shut the hell up.  I'd be willing to issue the
newgroup if after further discussion there is still support for
the group.

Anyone for alt.tv.bh90210? ;)

We've been on a role the past few weeks.  Last week they showed that
they can still do really amusing episodes with a bit of tension, and
this week they re-proved their skill at really dramatic episodes with
a touch of humor.  A number of the scenes between Norma and Sam made
me really uncomfortable, which is to say they were extremely effective.

There's not a lot of post-analysis needed for this one, but what
little there is follows after some blank lines.
























I liked the fact that they didn't wrap up everything nice and clean and
happy.  It would have been extremely unbelievable for Norma to just
realize she was wrong, and suddenly be fine.

Initially I though Sam should have made a break for it in the restaurant.
Had I been in that position, I would have reasoned that there was no way
they would have shot me in front of all those people and faced murder
charges.  I would have explained that I was going to announce I was being
kidnapped, unless they both got up and left right then.  Of course that
reasoning would only have worked with sane people, so Sam was probably
right not to try anything.

Three episodes left to go this season, and it looks like they're
going to be spacing them out with a lot of repeats.  Oh well.

Yo James!!! You're wrong. Sorry, to sound so blunt but you asked for it. 
Have you ever wondered why networks bitch and complain about losing viewers 
to cable and VCR movies when all they do is disappoint loyal viewers with 
reruns??? All the networks are interested in is having new shows in time for 
the sweep months. (Feb, May, Aug, Nov.) 

Expect NEXP to have brand new episodes soon; if not this Monday, the next.

okay, now isn't Clarissa on M.T.  incredibly good. ? I never read the

The last Project A-kon I went to saw me headed home with seven Gundam
model kits, a kit apiece from Patlabor and Yamato, three T-shirts, and a
couple of St. Seiya figures.  I do a lot of HEAVY spending at A-kon, but
at home (Birmingham, AL) anime just isn't that big, so I stick to
translated manga, NewType Magazine, and the occasional special order
book (the last one was the MS Gundam Compendium, which featured about
every suit ever designed.)
  I got into anime about three years ago, after watching a sampler tape
a friend put together.  Prior to that, I was heavy into kiddie shows
like Tranzor Z and Voltron.  Never saw Robotech or Star Blazers before
then.  Birmingham's never shown either of them.
  Since then, I've become obcessed with anime.  I snap it up as often as
I can.  My translated manga issues number about a hundred, I've got the
last two year's worth of NewType (and still going...) and my persoanl
tape collection has ballooned to about a hundred tapes.
  I've also discovered the art of making fan films.  Bolstered by the
facilites made available to me by a Mass Communications major, I began
making music videos and parody films.
  Project A-kon 2 was really a landmark date for me.  My first
full-length film SUPER-HYPER-MEGA-BLOODY-ULTRA-COSMO DEATH EXTRAVAGANZA
X-23  got shown, as did my other music videos, to one of the most
gleefully bloodthirsty corwds I've witnessed, I had a spot on the fan
films panel (both events due to repeat this year) and got a page on
A-kon Komics again.

  So that's where I stand.  In three years I've gone from cartoon
watcher to full-blown gaijin otaku.
  Now, it's just a matter of saving up oney to go hog-wild on some
commercially subtitled tapes...

	I've seen the 3rd Compilation/OVA as really like it.  It has a really
nice mix of "fantasy" (the time frame at least) and "mecha"  It's
somewhat comparable to Dunbine except there are no "power vorches" or
"aura" that I am aware of.  But I, myself, would really like to see more
of it.

Hard to tell. It should be Lin Minmei, but in Macross, there are

Minmay.

I'm thouroughly satisfied with buying all three volumes that
US REND. released. Loved the plot(except the hole in the plot
where you could drive a mac-truck through, of course :} ).
Loved the music even more.

Heck, I even find myself humming "Active Heart" from time to time.

So I'm asking: Is there any BGM CD for Gunbuster?? If not, be

I was in one of our local hobby shop a few weeks ago and I looked at
either the January or March issue of Hobby Japan (1992) and saw a preview
page of upcoming anime related kits.  I believe I saw a desert Zaku, the
same one that is in episode 4 of Gundam 0083.

Now, I didn't buy the issue (I wish I had).  If someone out there did
happen to pick it up, was the add really advertising the Desert Zaku from
0083.  If it was (and you can translate) when is the kit supposed to be
coming out.  

Now, since this is an anime related posting, it should pass inspection.

If it does not, someone, somewhere will probably post something to my
e-mail address and yell at me, like they did a few weeks ago.
