Alien Who?

April 20, 2005

My friend Gary's (you'll be reading a lot about him, great guy, endless source of material) favorite movies are Goodfella's and Starship Troopers.
Knowing this, he was the first person I called when I found out that there was going to be a special screening of Spaceship 90210 at the Skirball Cultural Center. I considered this to be just another sign of the apocalypse; he considered it a gift from the heavens.
Me: (reading from the synopsis) "berserker aliens, coed shower scenes..."
Gary: BUGS! Does it mention bugs?!
Me: Berserker aliens. They're berserker alien bugs.
Gary: They're not aliens, they're bugs.
Me: They're bugs from another planet, therefore they are alien.
Gary: Aliens are little green men with big eyes. Starship Troopers had bugs.
Me: Gary, an alien is a foreign entity. Something strange, from somewhere else.
Gary: You're an alien.
Me: Gary.
Gary: Yes.
Me: I have to blog now.
Gary: Okay.
