Christmas Delayed until March 2010

(Taken from a post by Kobun Heat at the Neogaf boards)

HEAVEN, The Infinite Cosmos -- Citing concerns about the economic downturn, the holiday of Christmas has been delayed to March 2010, representatives of Heaven said today.

Ordinarily held on December 25, the most holy Birthday of our Lord and Savior Jesus, who is also the Christ, the holiday will now be bumped back to an unspecified spring date before the end of Heaven's fiscal year, which ends on March 31.

"The holiday season has really been getting packed, and we think our product is going to get lost in the shuffle," said Yahweh, God The Almighty Most High in an emailed statement today.

"I mean, seriously, have you seen those night vision glasses for Modern Warfare 2? I already have a gloriously perfect view of all beings across the indescribably vast infinity of time and space, but those things are sick," said God.

Reports that Heaven's next major release, Easter, would be delayed until fall 2010 were unconfirmed as of press time.

What is Epic Mickey? (Updated)




IGN and other sites have found some video game artwork for an upcoming wii game. Epic Mickey is described as a futuristic apocalyptic steampunk disney adventure. No one is sure if the game is still in production but I sure hope so.

Click to enlarge.











Founds some more pics on the NEOGAF Board.



















Reminds me a lot of the upcoming movie 9.

Judging from the pics (especially the last one) looks like something really bad happened to Disney World. Nuclear bomb? Something escape from the haunted mansion? And the only thing left unchanged were the 1930's characters locked away in the vault.

I'm not sure if the next 2 pics are related to the game but they were done by the same concept artist.

One last dance before we go


ABC Family may have cancelled The MiddleMan, but that doesn't mean the story is over.


The cast and crew of the cult (soon to be) classic the MiddleMan gathered at Comic Con for one final script read. The story will be released later this year as a new comic book graphic novel.

And if you've never seen the MiddleMan, do yourself a favor and check out the dvds.

AAALLLVVVIIINNN!!!



VICIOUS killer chipmunks that escaped from a British park four years ago have never been found - and could now have bred into a horde thousands strong, The Sun can reveal.

The news will confirm experts' worst fears that the disease-ridden rodents, which are plaguing northern France, have already established themselves in numbers here.

About 30 of the deadly critters went on the run from Wellington Country Park on the Hampshire/Berkshire border in 2005.

Eighteen died and eight more were found or shot - but disturbingly FOUR remained free.

At the time Defra - the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, said they were wanted "dead or alive", because of the threat they posed to the countryside and native wildlife.

They can also carry Lyme disease, which targets the nervous system and can be fatal to humans, and even rabies.

With chipmunks reproducing at alarming rates there could be hundreds or thousands here now.

In France their numbers have swelled to 100,000 after just 17 were freed from a park in 1980.

The Sun reported last week how Britain has been invaded by deadly chipmunks pouring in to the country from France - and how one attacked a pet cat TWICE its size in Staffordshire.

Chipmunk breeder Sharon Balchin, 50, from Potters Bar, Herts, said: "It's a worry. Chipmunks will have no problem surviving. There is enough food for them."

A Defra spokeswoman said: "If chipmunks become invasive there is a big threat to our wildlife."

Looney Bay Reviews: Moose Flu/The Great Debate

The blog returns to normal this week with 2 Looney Bay Puppet show reviews:

First up we have "Moose Flu"

Biblical Lesson: Your sins will find you out

Script: Moose Flu has hit Looney Bay and the moose have been quarantined. Red and Fred, the two brothers from North Dakota, love mooses and pay Amoose a visit. Amoose sneezes on Red and soon the virus spreads. Red and Fred end up quarantined.

Thoughts: Jonathan and Ben took over the roles of Red and Fred. They did a pretty good job. Red and Fred are very hit and miss. Some weeks the kids love them and sometimes they don't. The kids seemed a bit bored with them.

Ad Libs/Blunders: Red and Fred's sneezing fit was pretty darn funny.

Overall: Kinda blah but its a Red and Fred script so what do you expect.


"The Great Debate"

Biblical Lesson: The Tower of Babel

Script: Its debate day in Looney Bay so everyone is having debates. Dr. Hootenanny has just developed Jibber Jabber juice. A struggle breaks out between the doctor and his pet owl and the juice is knocked into the city's water. Now everyone is talking jibberish except for Java. Turns out that pigs are immune to jibber jabber juice so a cure is found.

Thoughts: Everyone was pretty wore out from VBS so we did a light script. I can't tell if the kids are getting tired of Dr. Hootenanny and the hoot owl. I'll probably give them a break.

Ad Libs/Blunders: Kids were pretty rowdy. Probably do to VBS.

Overall: Fun script.

Going Postal

The accountant has gone postal
leave now before he gives out junk mail.
He's handing out past due bills
and ads for a mattress sale.

The police were soon called
and told him to stop trying to send
that's when the police dog got hungry
and bit his rear end.

The accountant no longer sends mail
after his dignity was stolen
by a hungry police dog
who left him with a semi colon.
