ow -- has it really been a year since my last update? I suppose it has! The last update was on a Friday the 13th. Eerie and foreboding!

I decided to toss up an update I'd been letting fester on my drive for a little bit after a kick-in-the-ass from a fan who asked when another update would be up. Well, here it is! As is usually happens when a writer alienates his fans, I wouldn't doubt the redebut is only going to meet the eyes of about three or four people.

This particular update pays homage to the smoke monster/man in black of "Lost" fame. I miss looking forward to that show, but I have to say that I'm disappointed in its ending. I was actually hoping for many more answers than were given. Bah!

I've looked for a new hole to fill the void left by Jack, Sayid, Locke, Kate, and Sawyer. "Persons Unknown" was a joke; the acting was horrible and I had to wait the entire season before it actually got remotely interesting ("level 2" was on a ship?).

So far, "The Walking Dead" shows promise. I'm a big fan of settings involving utter hopelessness of returning to normalcy, such as in "War of the Worlds." This weekend, it's "Skyline."

Yeah, I could go on and on about that stuff, but I'll cut it short so I have something to write about later.

Back on the subject of alienation (haw, haw -- see what I did there?), I'll need folks to spread the word. If you do a search on Facebook for my email address, jackson(at)lifeinplasticpants(dot)com, you'll come across my page. Poke around long enough, and you'll also find the official Life In Plastic Pants fan page.
