Anyone know anything about The Amazing Screw On Head?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Screw-On_Head
A pilot episode aired on Sci Fi that I enjoyed, but I got distracted by life and don't know what happened to it.

Anybody read Paul Di Filippo? These days he writes strange erotica, but he wrote some great Steam punk books.

I've never read his novels, but I am familiar with his comic work. He's a pretty good writer.

BTW - you're welcome. I thought that it sorta sucked that no one new could join the group - but yah, I wonder what happened. He wasn't a Virber very long... so perhaps the MySpace Secret Police drug him back!

Let me start with an intro - I had tried to join the original group several times, only to find out that the reason I couldn't was that the original creator had cancelled his Virb account and never transferred the group to someone else. Therefore, no futher steamers could join!
So, I figured "what the hell" and started a new one. I hope you'll use it and enjoy. I ain't going anywhere.

Wired is presenting a gallery of artwork that inspired Weta's collectible rayguns, plus exclusive photos of the retrofurist sidearms. The article offers more than just images; each weapon has a description of where they were inspired from, as well as possible uses. 'In this illustration by Greg Broadmore, a hunter poses with his latest kill and his elegant retrofurist rifle ... "I started drawing these things just for fun," says Broadmore. "I did dozens of designs, all really stylized and Flash Gordon looking. I remember those black and white serials playing on TV as a kid and the imagery always stuck with me. Really hokey, but really scary and weird at the same time. And, of course, if you're a fan of classic rayguns you'll see the influence of the old toy rayguns. The Buck Rogers disintegrator pistol -- of course directly referenced in Han Solo's blaster in Star Wars -- is iconic, and that original raygun, along with many others, inspired me massively.'
