You know, I didn't care too much for Lala Salama, but I just can't put my finger on why.

Dr Frankenstein was having a New Year's Eve party, so he sent Igor out to dig up some guests.

~~The zombie was feeling pretty scatterbrained.~~

I might have to actually THINK about this one.

Everyone had a ball at the Tall Man's party!

Got my Pseudopod marathon off to a good start. Here's some thoughts on the episodes:

PP#1, Bagman: This one really called out to me.

PP#2, Good Advice: It was good, but the ending didn't blindside me.

PP#3, Little Boy Legbone: Brought tears to my eyes.

PP#4, Returning My Sister's Face: I was high on this story, but I didn't lose my head over it.

PP#5, Sacred Skin: Had me nearly turned inside out.

PP#6, What Dead People Are Supposed to Do: Gotta give this one credit, the ending had me jumping for joy.

PP#7, Drawing the Moon: Left me cold.

PP#8, Indications: Really burned me up.

PP#9, Counting from Ten: Had a familiar ring to it, but as in other stories, I can't put my finger on it.

PP#10, Turista: A real gut wrenching story.

PP#11, Killing Jars: Really resonated with me, a piercing story with magnetic characters.

If you don't get the puns, go listen to the stories! If you don't have access to the stories, enter the contest and win a disc! This wasn't even half of the Pseudopod Collection #1.

Here we go again. Granted some of these aren't puns, and some are weak, but I'll at least try to be clever:

PP 12, Skinwalker Deception: My cup o' tea!

PP 13, Redmonds Private Screening: While listening to this, I kept yelling, "Cut!"

PP 14, Virginia Woods: I was afraid it would be too long.

PP 15, Regis St. George: Was it Howie St Mandell? Deal or No Deal?

PP 16, Medicinal: Screwball, corner pocket.

PP 17, Upon a Midnight Clear: I do believe in Santa's Claws!

PP 18, Oranges, Lemons and Thou: A little sweet and sour.

PP 19, Through Corridors: Gives new meaning to worm holes.

PP 20, What You Wish For: Fantastic!

PP 21, Fetal Position: Someone needed to cut the apron strings.

PP 22, Them Eyes: (The one I was thinking of was used, but here it is) Guess he bought the farm.

PP 23, Civilized Monsters: I just ate this one up and am Ravenous for more.

PP 24, Honest Ghosts: I'm having a mental block, and need some inspiration.

PP 25, Fetching Pepe: I wasn't even temporarily fooled by this.

PP 26, Flat Diane. I had a pun for this early on, but by the end, I decided against one.

Well, that wraps up Disc 1, I'll work on typing up Disc 2 tomorrow.

Zathras · **Reply #10 on:** January 04, 2009, 03:33:09 PM

And more:

PP 27, My Caroline: Let's face it, sometimes you have to make a stand.

PP 28, Lorna: If only I had a guardian angel to help me come up with a pun for this one.

PP 29, Light Like Knives Across the Night Sky: It's Saul In the Cards

PP 30, Sellers Market: Ellen would have been better off being Ruth-less, maybe the house would have only cost an arm and a leg.

PP 31, Last Respects: I bet it was quite a site, seeing all the preyers praying over their prey.

PP 32, Stitching Time: She'll never males it in again.

PP 33, Sounds After Screaming: This story really pushed my buttons.

PP 34, Bliss: Quite an appealing tale.

PP 35, Locked Doors: What a rebolting story!

PP 36, Liberation: Don't worry girls, there isn't even a bit of truth to this one.

PP 37, We Are All Very Lively: I'm getting a headache thinking about the implications.

PP 38, Hell's Daycare: Guess he got lucky with her!

PP 39, Some Things Don't Wash Off: Thought it was a horror story, but I've had a change of heart.

PP 40, Wanting To Want: I wanted to want to finish this story, but it was difficult.

Off to continue the marathon!

Zathras · **Reply #11 on:** January 05, 2009, 01:25:26 PM

Ok, this qualifies as horror only because it frightens me.

Raving_Lunatic · **Reply #12 on:** January 05, 2009, 09:07:44 PM

PP36: I think I liked this, but the spiders probably told me to.

DKT · **Reply #13 on:** January 05, 2009, 11:04:50 PM

Episode 31 sucked.

Zathras · **Reply #14 on:** January 07, 2009, 10:36:58 PM

Hmmm. If there is a lack of participation, I'm just gonna feed the pod the money I would have spent on the prize.

Episode 123: Bone Sigh scarred me for life.

DKT · **Reply #16 on:** January 09, 2009, 04:36:08 PM

Episode 62 was kind of preachy.

Episode 79 left me cold.

Zathras · **Reply #17 on:** January 09, 2009, 05:13:14 PM

How about using the episode number and title, guys? I don't recall each one by number, I's not as smartes as the rest of you'uns.

Pseudopod 044: Stockholm Syndrome - you know the story, Boy eats Girl

Pseudopod 73: Blood, Gridlock and PEZ - A nice little coming of rage story, but I thought it had to much of an axe to grind.

Pseudopod 80: Votary - That was phat.

Pseudopod 80: Votary - The story made a huge impression.

"Rack 'em up," the inquisitor told his opponent. The shark smiled, circled the table and jawed back at him, "I didn't expect you."

Ok, so it's a reach to call this horror, but I couldn't resist.

Poll

Which of these will win the Inaugural Pseudopun?
