The Brand New Crazy World of Vic and Sade?

Do you ever make mistakes and think, "I'd just like to start over"?

Well, that's me.  When I began the main Vic and Sade website, I had little knowledge of the show or characters.  I had only listened to 15 or 20 shows total when I began this endeavor.  Yes, you read that correctly.

At that time I began, I had no idea that notes from others existed.  I had no idea scripts existed.  These things would eventually marry with what I had found.  Before the marriage however, I created a messy problem in that many of the characters have names in the "database" that are misspelled differently than Mr. Rhymer spelled them.  In order to keep things together (so they could be found together) I CONTINUED to misspell them.  It sounds like a dumb idea now but it didn't then.  Not only that, but all I had to go on (early on) was the audio and so the audio stuff is defined at times in the main website as the DEFINITIVE WORK of Rhymer.  You will find things like, "This is the first time Dr. Keevey is mentioned" when in fact, he may have been mentioned in an earlier script (that I now have) that I didn't have at the time.

That's the cruelty of having done the site the way I did:

• Newcomer hears program - begins documenting what he hears after about 20 episodes.

• Newcomer doesn't know about notes or scripts. 

• I later find some scripts. 

• I later find more scripts. 

• I later am blessed with a myriad of notes from people doing the same thing I am doing. 

• I am later blessed with many, many more notes and many scripts that I didn't even know existed. 

• Meanwhile, all this time has passed and I learn more and more about the show - my opinions and viewpoints change over time, as well as my knowledge of the facts, some which I had already documented as FACTS.

So what remains is a mess.  I never intended to have a mess, but...

So, forgive me.  I will try to continue to clean up the mess.  In doing so, some episode material in the website will change.

In a perfect world, I can imagine taking all of the material (when I am finished) and making a completely new website, free of these problems I have created.  We shall see what happens.

I'm back on September 1st!

Let's make it official: September 1st will begin a new push here.  I've psyched myself up and am getting ready to go for a new round of updates. Hopefully, this new push will finish up this group of {new} scripts and script pieces.  Also, I plan to incorporate the many transcribed pieces from Mis' Crowe, as I have fallen behind on those as well.

It's fun to get re-hyped; I almost feel like I am starting over - and trust me, that's a good thing.  This "energy" is something I am known for - so let's do it!

By the way, I am a person who has no tattoos.  I tell you this because I am seriously thinking about getting a Vic, Sade, Rush and Uncle Fletcher tattoo on my arm(s).  I don't know if this will ever happen but I have been seriously thinking about this.  Haha.  We'll see.

And now, let's see what's going on...

Hi there.  Remember me?

As long as I don't get ran over with a hurricane or tropical storm in a few days, or the stock market or God-knows-what-else doesn't get me, I expect to be churning out new material (well, old material - but NEW TO YOU) sometime very shortly.  My calendar says after I am assured the "coming storm" (Erica) isn't going to kill me.

I'm real sorry about the lay off but I know you will forgive me, because I have been very faithful to these web sites and I still love Vic and Sade, despite the fact that Sade can be a real punch in the snoot, sometimes.

So, watch this space carefully.  Better yet, follow me on Twitter.

Sarah Cole is a 'Fangirl'

Sarah Cole, who has been a fan of 'Vic and Sade' for many years and has written oodles of stuff for my mothership blog, 'The Crazy World of Vic and Sade', finds herself to be the center of an interview about 'Star Wars'.  She's also a huge fan of Gilbert and Sullivan.

Somehow, she deftly avoided mentioning 'Vic and Sade', what a naughty girl!  She'll never get to be the Grand Old Lodge Lady doing that..

Sade buys new clothes for Rush and he likes them!

37-02-19 Rush's New Men's Shoes gets new dialogue and a synopsis.

It's baseball season

Vic and Rush and Russell (not to mention Mr. Sludge [White Sox] and Fred Stembottom [Dizzy Dean]) all loved baseball - and I do too.  Sunday evening is "Opening Day" and Monday is "Opening Day" as well.  My favorite team plays on the West coast Monday night, beginning at 10 pm, Eastern time.  I have to stay up all hours.  That's the price one must pay.

That gives me all day Monday to work on Vic and Sade.  The thing is, the next thing in line is a script, one of those so-called "dirty scripts"... that is, a script that's been written on (I do believe it was from the hand of Clarance Hartzell.)  I do hate to 'clean' these scripts up but it's for the better,  It makes them much easier to read.  Here's an example of the clean up:

It won't be a one day job.  It might take two or three.  And it's baseball season. And it's Opening Week.  I might disappear for a bit, but it won't be for long.

Play ball!

"I wouldn't dirty my shoe kicking him downstairs"

Sade doesn't like Hank Gutstop. Or his Christmas Scheme. Now with partial script and a more-detailed synopsis. And some other junk.
