Looks like the poor, late Wally Wood knows how it can feel

So I have really gotten behind on posting. There are some reasons for this and I do not want my fan base (all four of you) to think the Cafe will remain in this pitiful state.

1) I am having some bandwidth and connection issues. I can technically connect to my site and edit it, but it is so blasted slow sometimes. This problem is supposed to corrected “in a week”. I have been hearing that for abut three weeks now, and was told yesterday “in a week”.

2) Some work stress lately leaves me little mental energy for posting the quality posts that the Cafe has become internationally renowned for. I quote George W. Bush in a recent press release: “When I ain’t nuking goat farmers I’m reading the Uranium Cafe with Laura and the girls. We all love it.”

I teach ESL in China and thus are the wages of sin my brethren. I will not go into the details, but the Chinese education system is really something. As well my wife Ivy is off in Tibet on some quest and will not be back until January perhaps. That is stressful for me too since I am a big baby and am afraid of the dark because of all these freaky movies I watch.

Those are the main reasons things are slow here lately. There are some changes however. My FTP was back up one day and I managed to activate a couple new plug-ins. For recent news and updates check out The Wall of Uranium at the bottom of my side bar. It is basically a guest book application, but my theme will not show the actual guest book until I do something in the edit page and for now I have no clue what to do. But feel free to leave a comment or love sonnet or whatever. I do edit and delete things I do not like. I am in China for God’s sake. No freedom of speech here unless I allow it.

Also partake in the Uranium Cafe socially significant polls I will be conducting. They will always be matters important to our lives in this modern world, such as the current poll asking who you would prefer to chug a bottle of Jack Daniel’s black label with. We take life seriously here at the Cafe during these hard and trying times and we want to know what you… yes, you… are thinking and feeling.

My BT connection is blocked. I have good ranking memberships at Demonoid and Cinemageddon that are frozen now. I am using Rapidshare and Mega Upload for now but there can be limitations to those services unless you pay. That may be what I will have to do eventually.

There are reviews to be posted. Currently editing images for a Double feature post on The Brain Eaters and The Flesh Eaters. Lots of Vincent Price material I have watched lately. I love the guy and his immortal voice though he is a ham and a half. Dramas and adventure posts coming as well, on films  like Ice Station Zebra, In Cold Blood and a couple great westerns- McKenna’s Gold and Hombre- coming. Of course more image themed posts with movie posters and comic book art, and some music posts on Black Metal bands like Carpathian Forest and Psychobilly rockers The Cramps.

So, it is not for want of material that the Cafe has slowed down. Rather the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. And since I am quoting the Gospel please checkback soon for a small post on those wonderful little Chick tracks you normally find at bus stops and in phone booths (back when there were phone booths). I love those little things.

Sorry for the slow posting and I hope to be back at it shortly.

P.S. Recently checked my Google Analytics and found my number one vistes post was a movie I panned to death, Oneechanbara. It knocked my Jane Fonda as Barbrella post into 2nd place. I think that is strange.
