Pardon my fan-boy glee, but when I was invited by Jim Clatterbaugh, Editor and Publisher of MONSTERS FROM THE VAULT, to contribute to his Vincent Price memorial in MFTV #30, I was -- to put it mildly -- thrilled. Thrilled, hell. I was stoked!
To be alongside some of the great modern horror writers such as Tom Weaver and Greg Mank, as well as among some of the greatest living horror filmmakers such as Roger Corman and John Landis is -- well, somewhat indescribable.
Just a couple of years ago or so, I had the great fortune of having my comment published in the Remembering Forry tribute article in the latest re-launch of FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND (#251) -- and now this.
I don't think I have to tell you to get out and purchase a copy of the latest MONSTERS FROM THE VAULT. Yes, I've got a tidbit in there, but the rest of the issue is about as good as a monster magazine can get, folks. This guy Clatterbaugh knows classic horror.
Thanks, Jim!

On another note: the second and concluding installment of the Dell Movie Classics comics MAD MONSTER PARTY has been posted over at MONSTER COMICS WORLD.
It turned out to be a pretty good Monday!

But, like everything else in life -- artificial or otherwise -- this all comes with a price. Hackers, spammers, and other unsavory characters are out, surfing the bandwith for cracks in any firewall that they can get their nefarious string of code through, all for a buck -- and a lot of times just to see if they can frack up someone's day.
Case in point: I have a link to Jim Clatterbaugh's MONSTERS FROM THE VAULT blog on the sidebar of MONSTER MAGAZINE WORLD. I hadn't seen anything new on it for a while, so I decided to drop Jim a line to see what was up. He replied that his blog had been "temporarily" shut down by Blogger because their security software had detected that his site was being used as a host for a spammer. I don't have any other details except that he has to go through some sort of "authentication" process before he can resume. There was even a cryptic implication that he might have to even vacate his space because of all this. As of a few minutes ago (Monday, September 28, 5:00 PM PST), his blog remains shut down.
So, in my mild rant of a few days ago I mentioned that Blogger had suddenly started using an image interface pop-up that was similar to Facebook. My beef was that you couldn't resize the image easily to read smaller scanned images that had text in them. Well, this condition seems to have returned to the original setup where, after you click on an image it will open in another window where you can click again on it to enlarge the picture. Yay!
Seems like my worries are slight compared to my friend, Jim Clatterbaugh's, though. What does raise a larger question with me however, is that this huge, seemingly chaotic miasma of online madness -- despite the prevalence of "social networks" such as Facebook -- is creating an ever-widening gap between the individual and more meaningful human interaction. And, as with everything else, there are outlaws, predators and flim-flam artists to watch for, along with scams and schemes that serve no pupose other than to either cause someone misery or remove them from their money as quickly as possible.
Now, I don't mean to paint a dim picture here. This all has its bright spot, and it is mostly bright, I might add. While I am a veteran computer user and fairly adept at the use of the Internet, I was once extremely averse to jumping into the world of blogging -- not because I was a Cyberphobe, but because I thought the idea of "journaling" about my life and my interests to anyone who cared to read about it was, well, kinda dumb.
Boy, was I wrong.

MONSTERS FROM THE VAULT #30 will feature a remembrance of Vincent Price. Personally, I can't think of a better way to close out this year's "Vincentennial", can you?
