“It was a terrible, indescribable thing… a shapeless congeries of protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes forming and un-forming as pustules of greenish light.” - H. P. Lovecraft

Is that a young Derek Jacoby in your icon?

I love the two images, side by side. That was great. :)

I believe Jello has some explaining to do.


Excellent post!

The thought of olives suspended in a Jell-o mold gives me the heebie jeebies.
