	A related note.  Has anyone else noticed that in Timeslides(?)
when the past Rimmer and Lister are at the vending machine and the
present Rimmer walks by; in one view he is turring a corner to his left,
and in the other he is turning a corner to his right.  And if you look
closely you can tell that he would have had to walk through a wall to
in one of the scenes (of course he can do that.)

Right -- but that was a hologram sandwich.  The banana-and-crisp

I attended the annual Gencon/Origins convention at Milwaukee this
past weekend (8/20-23) and was pleased to find Waldenbooks selling
a US paperback of Red Dwarf.

While I confess I don't know my episodes to the point where I can
quote which episode a specific incident occured, I can tell you that
it starts with Lister before he signed on with Red Dwarf and so far
I am up to the point where Lister is trying to reassemble Kryten.

I'm only halfway through...  

It is a decently thick paperback.

Look for it.  It's entitled _Red Dwarf_ and subtitled _Infinity_

I would be interested in knowing if it's a new version or if it's
a compilation of the UK versions of the paperbacks.

It seems that the writers have forgotten this, too, though ...
Cat no longer attaches any stigma to the name.

   "I can't wear these! They look like Frankenstein's hand-me-downs!"
    (from `Justice')

   "It won't be the waste disposal this time, Frankenstein -- this time
    I'm going to unscrew your neck bolts and microwave your head."
    (from `Quarantine')


I guess that Cat has now watched so many vids with Lister (he knows
about the Frankenstein monster, he's been watching The Flintstones,
he has seen the original `Tales of the Riverbank' as well as the
Next Generation), he's more human than cat.  He certainly acts that
way lately.  There are very few references to him being a cat in the
latest series.  The only one that springs to mind doesn't even have
anything to do with the way he behaves.  He's just scanned and reported
to The Enlightenment as being a `felix sapiens'.

Well, there are the long fangs and the raw meat of the `low' Cat, too,
if that counts.

   Personally, I think that Red Dwarf could use a bit more continuity in
future seasons...  The first few shows were fairly good for this 
(well then again they created the universe from scratch... kind a hard to
screw up from there)... and had the added bonus that they were conected
with one show leading into the next.  I know a lot of people would like
to see this return (myself included).

   Besides rationalizing the show is a good waste of band width... and I
rather enjoy it.

Well, it had to be done.  Last night I had a tortilla filled with scrambled eggs,

FYI, I used Major Grey Mango Chutney (can't recall the brand, some Jamaican
one) and Tampico Chili Sauce.  The eggs were standard issue.

I agree.  I still read the damnthing, and really do appreciate the
additional background info (there's a lot of it), but the new
stuff was rather lifeless and pedantic.  

Can you tell me which episodes are represented besides The End
and Kryten?

Presumably because the light bee is from the present, while the soap
was from the leaked past.  Nothing could be taken out of the leak,
but anything that went into it could come back out.

And, of course, two months on a boat being sent to the Philippines for
the actual animation (though since it *was* all stills perhaps they were
able to assemble it themselves).  It kind of looked like they decided to
use up a whole season's worth of saved-up Log jokes in one grand finale.

>The rubber nipple salesmen episode was... interesting.  Strange
>and interesting--what else should I expect from Ren & Stimpy by now?

Actually, I was sort of disappointed by the reused jokes ("It is WE who
are...", "No sir, ...", "I've had it...").  In fact, Mister Horse was a
very interesting study:  it looked like they had to REALLY reach to have
him say "No sir, I didn't like it"; note how in Rubber Nipple Salesmen,
when they didn't bother trying to work that line in, the dialog went MUCH
better.  Running gags are one thing, but they need to be kept fresh.
(Though the Fire Chief's change from anger to paranoia was good.)

Rocky and Bullwinkle maybe, but the classic Warner toons were definately for
an older group. when asked, Warner animators always said that they made them

was probably above 10.

Also remember that most of the Warner toons were originally aired for paying 
(mostly adult) customers at movie theaters. This is why Bugs and such refer to 
them as "pictures." I like of these cartoons like an animated Secret 
deoderant - "funny enough for kids, but made for adults."

    What I want to know is, how did he hold Mr. Walrus up?  He may have been
wearing rubber gloves, but he still had no fingers!!  Hmmm....

What cracked me up the most was the "Invisible Log". I died laughing.
