Visit Flamegrape.Com. Be sure to check out some of my fanpages.
Someday I’ll get together my old work and post it as a gallery. Right now I’ve been mostly working on uninteresting business stuff. But I’ve also been working videogame maps, arenas, and player models when I can. As soon as I can get the next DVD project our of the way, I want to focus on more character animation. Work comes first. And my website is due for renovation, I think.
Very cool! I downloaded all of them. However, there is a bad link to Xev4amp.zip
Is it alright if I post the Xev-only WinAmp skins and wallpapers on my own Xev image archive page? I’ll be sure to give you credit and put a link to your page.

[b]Anal Probing Aliens[/b]
Transcribed from: Comedy Central
Transcribed by: Matt Morrison (herogreenlantern@hotmail.com)Cast:
Dave- Anal-Prober
Kevin- Memory-Eraser
Mark- Redneck Anal Probe Victim
Luc Casmeri- Willing Anal Probe Victim[Scene: An alien spaceship above the Earth. A laboratory/examining room]
Mark: Why does everything always happen to me?
[We see Mark on a table, with two strange white “lights” folded down near his head. A sequined blanket is draped over him, and he lies down with his knees curled up into his chest. We see two aliens stand around him. One alien holds a strange device that looks kind of like a lightsaber, but with a solid white plastic piece where the beam would be.]
Kevin: Ready the anal probe.
[Dave switches the device on as it begins to glow. It looks like a lightsaber with a small white beam]
Dave: Anal probe is ready.
Kevin: [nods] Commence anal probing.
[Mark screams loud and long as Dave sticks it where the sun don’t shine. He pulls it out, after two seconds and pulls off the white plastic part [to sterilize it?]
Dave: Quick, erase his memory!
[Kevin waves a hand over Mark as the two lighted “paddles” come up. Mark stops yelling and gets a calm look on his face]
Kevin: Memory’s erased. Get him out of here.
[Two other aliens come and start to wheel Mark off]
Dave: Move it. [pauses as he moves closer to Kevin] Ah, boy.
Kevin: Something wrong?
Dave: Ah.. it’s nothing really….
Kevin: I think you could use a cup of coffee.
Dave: Yeah. [sighs]
[They move to a lounge where Kevin pours two cups of coffee. They keep talking as Dave sits down]
Kevin: So what’s bothering you?
Dave: Ahhhh…. Lately I just keep wondering… what’s the point?
Kevin: The point?
Dave: Yeah. What’s the point of what we do?
Kevin: Sorry, I don’t follow you
[Kevin sits down]
Dave: Well, I mean, we travel 250,000 light years across the universe, abduct humans, probe them anally and release them.
Kevin: Yeah… AND?
Dave: Well, doesn’t it seem kind of point-LESS?
Kevin: I really don’t think about it.
Dave: Well don’t you think you should?
Kevin: No, I don’t think I should. I don’t think I should question the leadership of our Great Leader
Dave: Oh, come on! I mean, we’ve been coming here for 50 years and performing anal probes and all that we have learned is that 1 in 10 doesn’t really seem to mind.
Kevin: Well, do you have a better plan than our Great Leader?
Dave: Yes I do, I do have a better plan. My plan is that we DON’T travel 250,000 light years, we DON’T abduct any humans and, this is the best part, we DON’T do any anal probing.
Kevin: [sarcastic] Oh, great plan! Do you realize how many people Intergalactic Anal-Probing employees?
[They see that the next victim is ready. They put down the coffee and do the same motions as before, except Dave is very reluctant this time.]
Kevin: Well back to work.
Dave: Awww..
Kevin: Ready the anal probe.
Dave: [unenthusiastic]Anal probe is ready.
Kevin: Commence anal probing
Dave:[rolling eyes, exasperated] Couldn’t we at least abduct their political or religious leaders instead of just any idiot in a pickup truck?!?!
Kevin: I’m sure the Great Leader has his reasons
Dave: [sarcastic] Well, I’m sure the Great Leader is just some sort of twisted ass freak!
Kevin: [calmly] All right. I am now officially ignoring you. Commence anal probing.
[Dave inserts the probe. This victim doesn’t scream. Rather, he smiles and looks happy.]
Dave: Well, that’s a relief anyway. Erase his memory.
Kevin [going through motions] Memory is erased.
Dave: Get him out of here.
Kevin: [to interns wheeling victim out.] Come on, kid. Move it. Move it!
[They move to the window and look out on the moon and the Earth]
Kevin: You know what you need? A hobby. I know it helps me.
Dave: Yeah? What do you do?
Kevin: Well, I don’t like to toot my own horn, but I’m a pretty good amateur rectal photographer. Would you like to see my portfolio?
Dave: No. I would hate to.
Kevin: Fine. Screw you.
Dave: Well, Screw you.
[Kevin moves off, leaving Dave staring at the Earth]
It’s confirmed. I have no taste whatsoever:

To summarize, things got out of hand over at SciFi.Com/Lexx because that bboard was unmoderated.
Sad was impressed that there existed a community of fan fiction writers dedicated to Lexx. He thought that a fan fiction forum would be a great addition to SadGeezer.Com. I think it’s a swell idea too.
dgrequeen is correct. CF writers over at SciFi.Com/Lexx have little interest in posting their material here at SadGeezer.Com. I’m guessing that they enjoy they’re freedom they have at SciFi. I don’t think they like the idea of having moderators checking to see if their posts are “acceptable”. I believe they have little to fear, but the point is moot and ultimately irrelevant.
FX also has a point. The fan fic writers over at SciFi.Com/Lexx and they’re trouble-making adversaries made quite an impact here at SadGeezer.Com. It got ugly and none of us liked it. But I don’t think Sad, theFrey, and I are very worried about that happening again. This is because you, me, and theFrey will be moderating. Problem solved.
When I got involved with this new fan fic forum idea, never for a second did I regard you with suspicion, dgrequeen. In fact, I thought it was a terrific idea. theFrey and I will always look to you as the moderator with the most experience with fan fiction. Without your help, I don’t think we can make this work as well as it should.
Please don’t let old issues get in the way. Those experiences are just lessons for us to learn from. We’re trying to create something new and keep people happy.

If you mean the latin phrase [i]muliebris arcanus[/i], then I think that translates as “secret women”.

Myself, I would make a point of watching every episode. Who can deny that she has a great set of ears.
[img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]I think I see what you mean. Has the use of other people’s characters been a frequent problem?
Let’s see… If one person writes a story featuring an original character and his encounter with the crew of the Lexx, what could he do about someone else writing another story featuring the same character? Could it be prevented? I guess the most we can realisticly do is to just warn people not to plagarise.
We can’t review every story before it’s posted on the bboard. If someone steals a character from another author, what do we do? I suppose one of us could ask him to erase the story, rework it, and post it again using the editing features of the bboard. Otherwise, we would do it for him.
I suppose that before any of us would take action, we would first inform the original author of the use of the character. Maybe the original author does not care or granted permission to the second author without our knowledge.
That’s assuming, of course, that anyone notices the plagarism in the first place.
If you don’t mind me asking, which part of Tennessee? It’s a long state!
[img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]I don’t remember. Do you have to click yes/no to an agreement when you initially register with SadBoard? If so, then there should be a reminder that agreement at the top of the Fan Fic section. A simple link to that agreement would suffice.

Very good question. I was under the impression that this was to be an all-inclusive fan fic forum, not just for Lexx but for anything.
Also, I would vote for a forum dedicated to entirely original science fiction.
That would be me. I could do any banner artwork.
However, I think we should leave the design of the Fan Fic section consistent with the rest of the SadGeezer website.

I’m not sure that’s entirely true. I do know that during the Manhattan Project, many locals were hired for construction and the simple operation of machinery.
For example, the picture below…
[img]http://www.flamegrape.com/pic/med228_x480.jpg[/img]
…shows a worker operating a complicated-looking machine. She, along with others doing the same job, was told to watch a needle. If it moved to the left, turn a dial one way. If it moved right, turn a dial the other way. They weren’t told what the machine was for. In fact, all of the locals had no idea what was going on at Oak Ridge because it was all top secret. All they knew was it was going to help end the war.quote:

Nothing like that ever occured. In fact, Margaret Mead (the late, great anthropologist) visited Oak Ridge once and scolded the city for it’s failure in this respect.
I went to a good school system along with the sons and daughters of some of the smartest people from all over the world. And for all of them, the number one ambition was to get the hell out of Oak Ridge. Of course, this did not always happen.
[img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img]I like the idea of a new fanfic forum. I have a few comments. I may think of more later.
I don’t think we should have a forum specifically for clone fiction. But I think we should permit it in the appropriate forum. But do NOT mention “clone fiction” at all in the rules of conduct, the fan fic section’s description, or in the titles of any of it’s forums. The reason is becaue of the recent flame war. I am certain that if SadBoard were to establish a specific clone fic forum it would be viewed as a threat by regular patrons of the SciFi.Com bboard.
Furthermore, I strongly urge all of you to not advertise the existence of [b]any[/b] sort of fan fic forum on the SciFi.Com bboard. Announcements posted there would be certainly viewed as some sort of threat and would, in turn, instigate trouble. There are a number of regular patrons of that bboard that enjoy the unmoderated chaos that exists there. They do not want to be moderated. Leave them alone.
Regular patrons of the SciFi.Com bboards must learn of any new SadBoard fan fic forums through word-of-mouth or casual references made by other patrons. We, as moderators and webpage administrators, should not make any sort of advertisements there.
But in any case, no matter what we do, we will eventually come under heavy fire from some of fan fic authors who post at SciFi.Com. They must be ignored. Others must be encouraged to ignore them. Censor their offensive messages and refer them to the SciFi Angst forum.
I have some other ideas pertaining to the art forum, but I’ll save that for another post.

Judging from the advertisements of the next episode, [i]769[/i], I would guess that would be what they figured out.
How do you get the key out of a person? Either kill them or “bring them to the height of sexual ecstasy”. I doubt moth breeders can be excited. And I doubt Xev would allow any of them to be killed. Besides, which one has it? They can’t kill them all! I suppose they use 790 to help solve the problem.

[img]images/smiles/icon_mad.gif[/img]JJ brought up some valid points. Myself, I haven’t bothered to check other [i]Lexx[/i] chats and bboards. But JJ does, since he runs a very nice [i]Lexx[/i] website and makes a point of keeping track of such things. If the 4th season is attracting new fans, that’s wonderful!

The question he asked about jaded fans can be asked about any TV show. Yes, JJ wanted to discuss it. But you scolded him for bringing up the idea of comparing new and old fans.
[img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]….
Now back to the discussion:
I think it’s great that [i]Lexx[/i] has attracted new fans this season. If they are impressed with the goofy parodies presented in the forth season, I wonder what they would think of the “dark satires” of season 2 (as FX put it in another thread) or of the allegorical season 3. (I’m not sure how season 1 could be summed up in a word or phrase…)

Or maybe the technique I learned in gradeschool involving the palm of your hand pressed against your mouth? Or maybe it was the difficult technique of hand-in-armpit? Or maybe Lex took a tape recorder to the bathroom. Or maybe they just sampled the sounds from the campfire scene in the movie [i]Blazing Saddles[/i]. This may require extensive research…

Does the binder come with any cards other than the autographed card? Don’t tell me it’s a $40 plastic notebook?
Oh well, I bought the binder and the box. I might pick up an extra box at my local comic shop. I’ll probably end up with two or more sets.

I cant remember which ep(Stan Down?), its the one with Stanley talking to the “pathetic little science student” about Astral B when Prince does the “Im squishing your head!!” to Stanley. Then in that same episode when Stanley is discussing Prince with Digby, Prince says very Kevin Mcdonald like “Evil!”
Just something I noticed but was too vague to bring up but seeing you notice that makes me wonder if thats what they had in mind.
Well, [i]Kids In The Hall[/i] [b]are[/b] from Canada too. But that’s not a major factor. [i]Kids In The Hall[/i] are pretty popular.
Next thing you know, 790 will be bored to death by Buddy the gay waiter. (Wasn’t that his name?)

I completely disagree. It was brilliant. It was just like something straight out of season 2.
Ever since you originaly posted this thread, I’ve been worried that this would be a really bad episode. No worries, mate.
What’s the difference between the binder, box, and case? I don’t usually collect cards so I don’t know about this stuff. I wonder why the case is so very expensive?

Originally posted by FX:
(oh , and at the risk of opening up another can of worms, who wants to guess where the carrot probes are coming from? )
They come from the same planet as those aliens in a particular [i]Kids In The Hall[/i] sketch. Over coffee, the two aliens discuss why their leader has ordered them to abduct Earth people and probe them anally. For you see, all that they have determined is that 1 out of 10 people actually enjoy it. One of the aliens concludes that their leader must be a twisted ass freak.
[img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]The best way for an alien space probe to enter and take control of a human is to enter their bodies through the anus, the orifice closest to the central nervous system. The ear might be better, but you have to have a very small probe. (And it wouldn’t be as funny.)
[img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]The capacity of fart jokes in a television show has broken the glass ceiling and conceivably sky’s the limit. (Barring wind currents…)

Sorry about that. It’s just that I’ve had my fill of the typical know-it-all fanboys. It’s left me ready to pounce on anyone who thinks that they know what’s best for any show/movie. I keep forgetting that [i]Lexx[/i] fans are not the typical sci-fi nuts.
I guess I like discussions along the lines of “Isn’t Oberon and Titania the names of two large moons of Uranus?” That’s much more fun than “This season sucks!” Since I like the show, how am I to respond? Should I respond with “Oh you’re right. What was I thinking when I was enjoying this season the whole time?”

There’s not anything wrong with posting on these boards saying you outright hate Lexx. This board is for discussions like that imo. Doesent mean I dislike S4 at all, in fact its been my favorite of all seasons. And the fact that its only halfway over is really saying something.
Yup, I have to admit you’re right. There is nothing wrong with speculation. People are free to post what they like here. That’s the point of having a bboard. [Flamegrape’s head hangs in Japanese-style shame.]
I guess what I was getting at was that carrying on with alot of “should of, would have, and could have” is largely irrelevent. And because of the chaotic nature of [i]Lexx[/i], specualtion about future episodes is almost as pointless. (Almost, mind you.) I didn’t mean to come across as some sort of spoil-sport. Just the opposite, all I want to do is to prevent fans from sabotaging their own enjoyment of the show.
I get the feeling that many here are expecting drama, epic revelations, and sci-fi explainations in this 4th and final season of [i]Lexx[/i]. I’m pretty sure that this is not going to happen. It will be silly and chaotic to the very last. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
Cheers.
[img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]Bonee, either you secrete a worthless comment or you babble incomprehensible philosophical double-talk. I still don’t understand exactly what you don’t like about [i]Midsummer Nightmare[/i] and the rest of the 4th season. Can you at least state the one big thing that you dislike about the fourth season?
And you, Grendell, you’re establishing expectations about a show that’s already written, over, and done with. As I explained in another thread, this kind of talk doesn’t help you enjoy the show. None of the things that you want to happen will occur. And because they won’t occur, you’ll dislike this season more and more.
You guys want a science-fiction show and you feel you’re not getting one anymore. There was not that much “science” in the show in the first place! It’s always been about goofy sh|t that happens in space. Well, now it’s goofy sh|t that happens on Earth!
If the fourth season wasn’t on Earth and Oberon was, oh say for instance, Mentor the space wizard. And instead of turning Kai into a singing tree, he turns him into singing rock crystals. Same story, same lines (essentially), but different setting and characters. I bet you would have thought it was cool then… if only it was in outer space and not on Earth.
It kind of reminds me of [i]Galactica 1980[/i]. I was expecting a really cool sequel to the original [i]Battlestar Galactica[/i]. They find Earth and they should have teamed up with the Earthlings and defeated the Cylons once and for all. But no! It turned out to be one of the biggest jokes of science-fiction history! The inherent expectation of the monumental meeting with the “lost tribe of mankind” was it’s downfall. We all expected something epic and we didn’t get it at all, not by a long shot.
But the fourth season of [i]Lexx[/i] is not like that. There were no inherent expectations about what is supposed to happen when they visit Earth. But that didn’t stop many here at SadBoard from making up theories about “cycles of time”, etc.
Look, all I’m saying is that you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Try loosening up a bit. I recommend frop.

Ah, but you forget that when you’re a teenager, you usually don’t know anyone with a credit card. As I recall, FX, you’re an NYC girl? (I might be wrong?) Anyway, if you live in the social desert that is the suburbs, the only people you know are your parents and the kids your own age. Maybe a few older highschool kids might have a credit card. But you have to be *cool* to know those blessed beautiful people.
I feel for you Raven. Contact me and maybe I can help you buy those discs for you. (I’ve got a credit card.) It will cost extra for shipping however. But with luck you can work it out on your own.

She’s a strange strange strange little boy
Her long black beard is her pride and joy

And all the grownups try to drag her down
So we sing
Hey, leave Jackie alone
Hey, his pigeons have flown

Shy and quiet neither scene nor herdAnd all the rats will follow him around
The dogs and cats will chase her from the town
And we sing
Hey, leave Jackie alone
Hey, his mind is all blown
Hey, she’s not on the phone at all these days
Leave Jackie alone
Jackie couldn’t decide if he was a girl
Or if she was a boy
Have you seen Jackie?[/i]quote:

Oh my god, you are so right! I [i]hated[/i] the Final Fantasy movie! I tried to sit down and watch it about three times without success. I always had to stop it. The plot was so stupid! And the dialogue was lamer than lame. The movie was one big long videogame cut-scene. Nifty graphics technology does not make valid entertainment.
That’s pretty good.
I, uh, wonder… how many can be applied to the fourth season of [i]Lexx[/i]?
[img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]Yup, that has to be the three thousand and thirty-eighth “Dark Angel” I’ve encountered on the internet.
[img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]I can’t decide either.
When I saw the show for the first time many years ago, all I saw was the “Hilly” Holly. Ever since then I thought that was the only one. But I recently bought all the episodes on tape and saw the “original” Holly.
I love them both!

LOL! Well, i somehow doubt it. It’s far more ironic to have a gathering of druids in an old power plant in the middle of a city. It would have been cheaper to film it in a forest, ya know.
