Steampunkishness is a good word.

I bought Better Off Dead. Finally.

Also… Conan. No, not the red-head – the one who sprays the fields with the blood of his enemies.

Seriously.

Carrie tells me that in The Destroyer (which comes with The Barbarian), Grace Jones shows her kitty if you pause it just right.

Also also, Trase gave me her extra small bits of metal and gears and things, and I now have a small solder tool, and am on the lookout for other bits and pieces that might make for fun steampunkishness.

I’m looking at a pair of vintage welding/motorcycle goggles (yeah, I know, but they don’t make a distinction) on e-bay that I could work up into something fun. Some of them are cheap (ten bucks), and some not so cheap (40? hmm).

  1. Quidditch goggles serve steampunk purposes for many.

  2. You need to start estate sale-ing with us. You will find lots of steampunkish project stuff if you do. I will keep an eye out of course, but part of the fun is the hunt, and if you find it yourself it makes it all the sweeter! :D

  3. Ironic…I was just thinking yesterday of buying Conan the Barbaraian, Red Sonia, and the Beastmaster…because as a kid, I loved cheeseball sword and stupidity movies like those. It’s more of a nostalgia thing than a “this is a great movie” thing.

  4. Late comment but needed to be said

    Grace Jones is a woman?!? Actually she was awesome as a Bond Girl.
