I’m just not hyping it as much. And the schedule won’t be out until later. But it’ll start 24 hours before Thanksgiving and last a week or so. It’ll be the usual assortment of stuff seen on mst.

Admit you’re coming over here.

Legend holds that in the early days of SciFi.com, when the net was still ruled by .edu’s, alt.’s and rec.’s, some techs were installing a screengrabber to add a ‘now playing’ image to the schedule page and saw more or less this image:

I\'d like to but The Hulk a Coke

One of them cracked wise, “I’d like to buy the Hulk a Coke”, and a light bulb went off. Soon, Caption This! was unleashed on the world and the rest is history. You can watch the whole episode (complete with Gordon “the Big Guy” Jump) for the price of sitting through some ads.

While I’ve got your attention, save these dates:

This Friday, Oct 31, Noon to 2AM, the IS Halloween special. [Ed's note: Halloween special canceled unless I get my PC working tonight]

Wednesday November 26 to Tuesday December 2, the 7th annual IS Turkey Week Marathon.

2009 – Thursday October 1 to Sunday October 4, Las Vegas Capfest.
