We need air conditioning, Marge.

Why?

Because it will help us be successful. Can you think of a successful person who didn't have air conditioner?

Balzac.

No need for foul language just because you can think of someone.


And yeah, I am paraphrasing the Simpsons.

so has anyone actually gone to the lacma exhibit? i know blando mentioned there was a line for the non-advance ticketed people. i wonder how long the wait is to get in for pre-order people. i remember i took my parents to see the king tut exhibit at the lacma and we still had to wait in a LONG ASS line despite having bought the tickets ahead of time. i hope that's not the case with this...

I went and thought it was great. We pre-ordered our tickets and still had to wait in line to get in. I think I overheard that it was sold out. Not sure if it'll always be that busy though since I went opening day. It's supposed to be up until Halloween. It's a small space so they can only let in a few people at a time. It took about half and hour for us.

that's not terrible then. thanks for letting me know. we had reserved tickets for the king tut exhibit and we had to wait in a line that wrapped around a bunch inside a tent that was outside of the building and it was still hot inside that tent. normally, i wouldn't mind the wait, but this time i'll have a toddler with me and she won't last if we have to wait longer than an hour to get in.

It also depends on the time you select. We had our tickets for 3pm but got there a little late. By the time we left, it was close to 6 and the line looked smaller.

Alice Cooper to Cast Some Dark Shadows | Horror Movie, DVD, & Book Reviews, News, Interviews at Dread Central

Here's some nifty little news for those of us out there who are eagerly anticipating Tim Burton's big screen adaptation of the classic television series, "Dark Shadows". It sounds as if the great Alice Cooper himself may be taking a few moments to bring even more darkness to the tale.

At a recent show in London 100 Club, star Johnny Depp took the stage with Alice, and according to Cooper's official website, "Johnny is in London working on the new Tim Burton movie Dark Shadows, and Alice is rumored to have a cameo part in the film as well..."

The key word here is rumored, but still, that's pretty damned cool.

Sweet!
