Childhood's End
·
· Score: 1
Actually, there have been rumors.. but I haven't heard anything lately. "Childhood's End (Universal Studios)" was listed under "Optioned" in a list of future projects.. recieved from Mr. Clarke after my dad wrote him a letter.. check it out: http://pez9000.virtualave.net/scifi.html
And (my wacky taste in music): FatBoy Slim, Crystal Method, Pearl Jam, Less Than Jake, They Might Be Giants, Weird Al, Local H, The Rentals, Foo Fighters, Cake, Hum, God Lives Underwater, Pink Floyd.. lots more.
I usually prefer the techno kinda stuff (Fatboy Slim, Crystal Method) when I want to concentrate more on what I'm doing.. I always end up singing along with the others.
I never expected to see PEZ on Slashdot. This is so cool. I have to admit, I'm one of those crazy PEZheads. I have a PEZ site, I have "PEZ" in my meta tags, I have PEZ-related images all over my site, and I have yet to be contacted officially by PEZ Candy Inc for anything (but I wouldn't doubt that it could happen). PEZheads all over the 'net waited literally months and months for the official pez.com site to go online; and it finally gets here, and lo and behold the "PEZ cop" is greeting us with a note about copyrights. We were all disappointed. You would not believe the number of PEZheads online, many of us with nice sites dedicated to PEZ. We spread the hobby of collecting, we give them free publicity (conventions, news articles, etc), we are basically adverising and promoting PEZ for free, and the internet is our main medium. The note on the site wasn't what we expected, but it no longer seems like a big deal. Pez.com went up almost a year ago, and the note really hasn't changed anything. No one's really upset anymore. AFAIK, no site has been "prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law" for using the word PEZ.. I assumed the copyright notice was just the advice of paranoid lawyers for a company that was new to the net... the thing that worries me is that the note hasn't been changed since the site opened. I wonder if they're serious?
