Kappa Tracks

"A story is made up of words and characters. Are the words well chosen and do the characters live? All the rest is literary gossip."

My six decade love affair with the English language compels me to offer a list of authors whose work meets my critical standards. The single criterion operant is the quality of the prose as composed by the writers. I have made no discrimination whatsoever as to subject matter, theme, or plot.

Therefore be warned!

A great many of the works here listed may involve themes or subjects repugnant to some readers. I can only advise that if a particular story cannot be stomached, go on to the next; you will find at least a few to be to your taste.

Only game in town...

TV-CW, cable 34...Sat. mornings, 10:30 dst.
has been airing the 10 'best' T-carns, as chosen by
on line voters..
9-12: "Tales of Leo" number 10, from the NT
9-19: "Super Quest" number 9, from Btts
9-26:"Future Shellshock" number 8, from Fast Forward*
*hmmm...contrary to some of the fanon comments, seems
some 'kids' liked the Btts and FF episodes..
oh well, no accounting for some peoples' taste...
10-3:"Same As It Never Was" number 7, from the NT
Kappa comment: sorta figured that this episode would
be on the 'LIST'... no other NT has evoked/inspired so much
writing on the ff. Draco sends Donnie, the least aggressive
of the four, to endure a terrible tragedy..while his brothers
experience what might be called 'glorious' adventures..
what were the originators of the NT episodes thinking?
(We may never know...)
10-10:"Attack of the Mousers" number 6, from NT
(R)"Jeez, where's your off switch?"
Splinter: "Intelligence followed soon after."
(M)"I just love those action movie lines..you write them yourself?"
10-17:"Wedding Bells and Bytes" number 5, fr.the Btts
"You will warn no one, Rodent!"
Mikey as "Maid of Honor"(!!?) & Raph trying to
teach Casey bow-tying ??
(talk abt wedding crashers!)
10-24:"Enter The Dragons, pt.One" number 4, from the Ninja Tribunal.
at last, one of the good ones!
10-31:"Meet Casey Jones" number 3...somebody's gotta
do correlation of the 'toons-stories with the Mirage comics issues.
11-7: "Things Change" number 2...
the first of the New 'Toons.. had some great 'lines"...
"He's wrong, we're not wearing costumes!"
"Last one on the roof hatched from a rotten egg!"
"..ole turtle luck, runnin' true to form.."
"Springtime fresh!"
11-14:"Enter The Dragons, pt.Two" number 1, from the Ninja Tribunal.
Again, one of the good ones! Seems the artists had fun with this episode..
They got everybody into the act!
**************************
n.b. following the airing of episode voted number one
on Sat. a.m., there was a 'blurb-ad' for next weeks
T-show.. a film entitled: "Turtles Forever" &
my version of TV-guide lists it as starting
at 10 a.m. on Sat, Nov.21st.
That'll be a DONOTMISS!
