Battle
in Outer Space
A
couple of nights ago, I
watched a 50's Japanese science fiction movie called Battle
in Outer Space and I can't
stop thinking about it. Man!! This
is like Star Wars and Independence
Day done in 1959. An epic space opera
that kept me grinning till the end. I absolutely
love it.
The
combination of Ishiro
Honda (Direction), Eiji
Tsuburaya (Special Effects) and Akira
Ikufube (Music)
is
just awesome!

A
Gift from my Brother
As
a Christmas gift, my awesome
brother, Daniel, sent me a shadowbox
containing an incredible specimen of a Chalcosoma
Caucasus from Indonesia. Stunning!

Unfortunately,
it got a bit damaged during shipment from Québec
City to Washington State. Instead of bursting into
tears, I immediately called my good pal and
bug restoration expert (among other things), Andrew
Scott. I told him what happened and
asked him if he could help. He reassured
me
that
it
would
be
no
problem for him to bring my precious beetle
back to its former glory. What a relief!
I
can't wait to see my Scarab once Andrew is done
with it. In the meantime, check
out some of his work and
you'll see why I feel so confident.
