I've always fantasized setting up a consultancy in which I'd design dummy papers for movies and TV shows that would look much more like the real thing than so many of them do, but still convey the information they were intended to (for instance, the headline about some revelation that advances the plot). It always drives me nuts when TV/movie newspapers look so phony!
Of course now I've gone and blown my money making idea. Anyone who steals this, write me for a royalty deal.
Because of a recent ton of spam and weird insulting comments from a brand-new poster, I'm putting in comment moderation for a bit. I'm planning to do comment moderation "Ms. Kitty Style," as in, with a very light touch and kicking only off-topic and unreasonably insulting posts.
What do you suppose this means?

Smile. Being a prop person on for a TV show would be pretty awesome. I like to shake the hand of the person who designed the money for Firefly

who would, in truth, like to shake the hand of anybody who had anything to do with Firefly.
