Some of you may have noticed we had some down time at the end of 2011. That was indeed negligent of me to let it happen. I’m investigating solutions to prevent it from happening again now, from the mild and inoffensive to the more severe that may entail another day or two of downtime.
By way of apology, here are some stupid sound clips to sneak onto friends’ (ok, acquaintances’) playlists. What, why are you looking at me like that?

It’ll just be a four day affair, Thanksgiving to Sunday. As usual, there’ll be screengrabs from the original versions of films that were featured on mst3k for everyone to come and riff on their own. You can see the list of movies here, but you’ll have to guess when your favorites are airing. I like the element of surprise. Sorry for not making a bigger production out of it, but (a) the kids at Rifftrax and Cinematic Titanic have re-lit the torch sufficiently that I don’t feel as much of a need to keep it going and (b) because.

That’s right capperinos, I so badly want you to become a fan of Inventing Situations at Facebook that once I suceed in getting 100 fans, I’m entering all of our fans into a drawing for their choice of a gift certificate good for a Rifftrax or two or a DVD from Cinematic Titanic.
So, if you haven’t added us yet, go for it,or you know a capper who’s not on the fan list at our FB page, politely pester away.

This past weekend a few of us cappers got together to see Cinematic Titanic‘s live shows in Philadelphia. Before Saturday night’s movie JoeCrow was kind enough to take us into his Jersey lair aka The BotCave, where he builds Servos, Crows and other bots for common fans and even folks like Joel Hodgson (pictured at left with me at my goofiest).
We got to see the wonders of how a bot is built, and Joe even made us some Servo heads that we were able to be goofy with at the show (hoisting them when Servo was mentioned or alluded to).
Anyway, the show was excellent, and I’ll be running some of the pictures for your capping pleasure Monday June 22 @ 8 PM Eastern on Inventing Situations. You can preview (and well, caption) them by clicking the image here (that’s the end of the stream, the start is here).

There’s a new update over at the Vegas Capfest page, with the names of cappers who’ve already said the may show up, along with more itinerary info. The fest runs Thursday Oct 1st to Sunday Oct 4th and it sounds like Bosko is putting together a good slate. Of course, you could have gotten this update earlier if you added our page at Facebook. Or used an rss reader. Or blogger’s follow feature. Or joined the capper egroup. Or got on Generik’s distro list. But the first one was the best idea, definitely.
And speaking of capper gatherings, dates for all six cities on the next leg of the Cinematic Titanic tour have been announced. A few cappers have already expressed interest in going to the Philadelphia shows (incl. yours truly) on June 12th and 13th. If you‘re organizing a gathering in your neck of the woods, let me know and I’ll help get out the word.
