I will admit it, after the quick summary I hit the pictures first. What can I
say, I am shallow-ish. But when I saw the awesome steampunk goggles were from
DragonCon, it made me go HMMMM in a completely C&C Music Factory Approved
(tm) way. And a picture as a zombie? Totally non-typical and awesome! As for my master criminal plan, it involves replacing
the worlds greatest works of art with with exact replicas and then.. uh...
looking at them... and stuff. Alright, it needs work. First of all, I have no
idea how I am going to sneak a molecular scanner into the Louvre. Second, how
am I going to be able to pay for the utilities on a 1,000,000 sq-ft
climate-controlled nondescript warehouse on the edge of town? So many things to
think about.
Well, if you have any ideas on how I might improve on
this plan or just looking for a native guide, drop me a line. I don't know of a
retro-karaoke place right off hand, but I am sure we could find one with a bit
of diligence. (On the other hand, I do know of a bowling alley where drunken
red-necks howl like coyotes that inexplicably love classic rock, but I can't
recommend it, unless for anthropological reasons :)
P.S. Huge points for including both "Dune" and "Girl
Genius" in your media favorites. A most compelling combination!
P.P.S. What exactly is going to happen when you
freeze the 80 gallons of Jello? Lime I presume? Is the flavor key? I am filled
with curiosity. And maybe just a hint of dread.

Plan for world domination #780234 Create a bacteria that has an affinity for the leaves
of poinsettia plants and produces LSD as a waste product. I can inoculate them
by doping the misters in every Ecke family production facility in Central
America. The result will be an even greater dilution of their monopoly in the
ensuing chaos and the removal by fear of another symbol of Christmas.
This is part of a greater overarching plan to further
commercialize Christmas by selling more durable goods. The chain of events will
eventually mean that I no longer have to shop for or put thought into gifts
because eventually the companies will have enough power combined with accurate
data mining to just sell me a short list of what my friends and relatives want.
Thus, freeing me for another 10-12 hours each year in which I can engage in
various hobbies.
Also, from my years in IT, I understand how to
infiltrate the corporate world. These skills mean that once the corporate
takeover of holidays and government is complete, I can use assassination and
falsified employment history to end up CIO of a large company. From there, it's
just one well placed, commercially mass produced bomb to the height of power
and money and all the tacos I can eat. What diverse and conglomerated portfolio
does not include tacos, I ask you?
Tell me of your ideal secret lair in more words than
you shared in your profile. I'd love to know.

I liked some things about your profile;
1) You can deal with the geeks.
2) You did the Zombie Walk. I missed it but I and my son LOVE zombies...he
missed out a couple of years back being in the movie they filmed downtown due
to last min. age restriction changes. Poo on them!
3) You used the word Ginormous...which I just typed in to describe my dogs not
but 15 mins previously when I downloaded photos of them.
4) I love TMBG and have one of their CD's in my car most of the time.
5) Your business sounds cool. I tend to classify myself as a 'facilitator'
anymore...I introduce people to one another more often than organize
myself...must be age wearing on me. I make a decent henchman at times...I call
it being a 'puppetmaster' but, hey...PotAYto PotAHto.
6) I seek partners in crime...my crimes lately have been confined to sneaking
into movies. Some call it cheap, some call it thill seeking, some call it
fighting The MAN, some call it evil...I call it teaching my son lessons in
applied psychology.
7) I have plans for world domination...but, I'm lazy and
