Subj: Would you like to read a book?
Some of you may know me as the Maths Friend from ARCC, but when I'm not capering in front of a webcam I write science fiction and fantasy. This year, my novella finally made it into print! It's got boats, singing, and a big gun.
To Sail the Interstice in Wiz Duo Book 1
It nearly didn't appear at all, thanks to issues with the original intended publisher, so it would mean a lot to me if people grabbed copies. Supporting a small press is also a Good Deed, so it's got that going for it.

Subj: The Best Film Youâve Never Seen
No. 26: Colossal (2016)
Another appearance in this series for director Nacho Vigalondo after Timecrimes, this time with a famous lead actor and more money. But it ran into legal problems, didnât do well and people are still wary of the fun concept, so it qualifies.
Anne Hathaway moves back to her family home and discovers she causes a giant destructive monster to manifest in Seoul, South Korea, and controls its movements. See, youâre already wary of that, arenât you? Itâs surely going to be unbearably cheesy and silly, right?
And yes, it is cheesy and silly, but also far more serious and interesting than you expect, tackling alcoholism and abusive relationships. Itâs a cheesy, silly film for grown-ups.
After Godzilla was shown/mentioned in pitches for the movie and the director said âItâs going to be the cheapest Godzilla movie everâ, Toho started legal action that ensured the monster looked very different and the location switched from Tokyo to Seoul. Maybe it wouldâve made more impact otherwise, maybe not.
Expect a strange mash-up of genres, but I reckon itâs more entertaining than most of Godzillaâs appearances in recent years.
Colossal should be available to rent/buy in the usual places or in the US it looks like itâs on Plex and Kanopy

Here are some comforting phrases to say in German! (Don't say them loud though, people might be concerned)...
Very nice and very useful! however, I wonder were the Germans say Dan-kuh (incidentally, Kuh means cow in German. Which in turn would be pronounced coo in English. Going full circle the Scotish word for cow. However, I cannot think of any German dialect/variant where it's pronounced Dan-coo).
The 'ke' is like ke in kettle so Dan-ke(ttle).
And yes, I'm German so I do consider myself someone of an expert in that language.

Subj: Planet Macbooz Shocks the Cosmos: Biobooz Race Perfects Brain-to-Liquid Technology,Redefining Life.
By Korvax Triluun | INN Galactic Correspondent
MACBOOZ, QUADRANT 9Z â In a staggering leap for science and interdimensional existence, the Biobooz of Macbooz â a planet located 30,000 light years from Earth â have unveiled a revolutionary advancement: the ability to preserve brain function, memory, and consciousness in liquid form.
This breakthrough, now dubbed "Neuroliquid Preservation," allows the complete essence of a beingâs mind â from experiences to skills and even personality traits â to be safely stored and later transferred into newly constructed bodies. Effectively, death for the Biobooz is no longer an end, but a transition.
Lead figure of this revelation is Boozo-B6, a 600-year-old Biobooz whose number is visibly etched above a glowing red star on his chest. Having lived for six centuries through multiple physical forms, Boozo represents the enduring knowledge of an ancient race that has mastered continuity of consciousness.
Scientists across galaxies are already calling this discovery âthe end of forgetting.â Universal councils, knowledge-sharing federations, and even Earth-based think tanks are scrambling to establish contact and understand the implications.
Experts predict this could revolutionize everything from education and warfare to diplomacy and culture preservation. With memory no longer shackled to biological decay, the potential for infinite learning and peaceful legacy-building has become a tangible reality.
"This changes not just how we live," said Dr. Alarn Vex of the Interdimensional Ethics Institute, "but how we define existence itself."
Stay tuned for exclusive coverage as INN investigates the ripple effects of this historic advancement. Will immortality become the new norm? Can other species adapt the Neuroliquid process? And what does this mean for the future of life â and death â as we know it?
This is not just a story. This is the beginning of a new era.

TOWN COUNCIL APPROVES NEW CHEESE SCULPTURE FOR MAIN SQUARE
By Brianna Ricotta, Senior Correspondent
In a meeting that drew an impressive turnout despite the mid-spring drizzle, the Mozzerellaford Town Council voted unanimously last night to commission a new centerpiece for Main Square: a larger-than-life cheese sculpture honoring the townâs legendary founder, Sir Curdley Whey.
Local artist Mona Provolone, whose butter cow at last yearâs Dairy Festival wowed both critics and kids, has been tapped to bring the vision to life.
The sculpture, planned to stand over eight feet tall, will depict Sir Curdley astride a rolling wheel of Gouda, waving his iconic ladle. Provolone says sheâll use a blend of waxed wheels and carefully cured bricks to ensure the piece weathers the elementsâand the enthusiastic selfie-takers.
Construction is set to begin next Monday, with an unveiling planned for Foundersâ Day in June. Resident opinions have ranged from delighted to mildly concerned about potential pigeon interest, but most seem eager for a new landmark.
As Councilwoman Brie put it: âMozzerellaford deserves a monument as bold as our cheese legacy.â
DAIRY FESTIVAL RETURNS AFTER HIATUS
By Leo Fontina, Staff Writer
Sponsored by Oregano & Rosemaryâs Bread Emporium
After two years marked by quiet weekends and empty fairgrounds, the Dairy Festival is officially back on the calendar, promising to restore some much-needed cheer and commerce to Mozzerellaford. This Saturday, Main Street will transform into a bustling corridor of cheese, music, and games. Highlights include the fiercely competitive cheese rolling contest, butter sculpting demonstrations, and the much-anticipated âGuess the Weight of the Wheelâ competition. Local creameries are preparing special festival-only flavors, and rumors swirl that the secretive Blue Ribbon Band will headline the evening concert.Festival coordinator Maybelle Manchego is expecting record crowds: âPeople have missed this. Itâs not just about the cheeseâitâs about coming together.â Vendors are urged to register at Town Hall, and volunteers are still needed for setup, breakdown, and the ever-demanding cheese sampling booth. Road closures will begin Friday evening, so plan your route accordingly.
LOCAL SCHOOL LAUNCHES âMILK MATTERSâ PROGRAM
By Cynthia Havarti, Education Reporter
Sponsored by Moo Moo Milk Delivery
Mozzerellaford Elementary has kicked off its âMilk Mattersâ initiative, a yearlong program designed to teach students about nutrition, sustainable farming, and the science behind dairy processing.
In partnership with the local 4H Club, students will visit working farms, learn how to churn butter by hand, and even adopt a classroom calf for the semester.
The programâs launch event drew parents and media, with Principal Emmental proudly announcing, âWe want to give our students a real taste of where their food comes from. Knowledge is powerâand healthy bones!â
The first field trip is planned for next week, and students are already abuzz about the chance to bottle-feed calves and try their hands at milking. Science teacher Mr. Chevre says thereâs even talk of a cheese-making contest between grades. The programâs curriculum is available on the school website, and family volunteers are still welcome.
MOZZERELLAFORD MARKET PRICES: DAIRY UP, VEGGIES STEADY
By Edam Smith, Market Analyst
Sponsored by Farmer Gorgonzolaâs Produce Stand
The weekly market report shows dairy prices ticking upward as festival season approaches. Cheese is up 2% on average, with artisan cheddars fetching as much as $10 per pound at Saturdayâs market. Whole milk saw a modest bump to $3.25 per gallon, reflecting both national trends and local demand.
Eggs remain steady after last monthâs spike, and butter is holding at $4 per pound.Vegetable prices have remained resilient, with tomatoes, lettuce, and sweet corn all holding steady.
Farmer Gorgonzola attributes the stability to this springâs mild weather and improved irrigation. âItâs a good year for greens,â he told the Times. â But if we get another hot spell, tomatoes could jump.â The market opens at 7 a.m. this Saturday, with freshest picks selling out by noon.

To the Esteemed Citizens of Mozzerellaford,
It is both my duty and privilege to address you on this fine spring day. As we prepare for the Dairy Festivalâs triumphant return and welcome new works of art to our beloved Main Square, I am reminded of the strength found in our bondsâfamilial, neighborly, and communal.
When the world seems uncertain, we gather in celebration, in memory, and in hope. I offer my deepest thanks to all who labor on farms, in shops, in schools, to make Mozzerellaford the jewel it is today.
May your tables be full, your spirits high, and your hearts as strong as our oldest cheddar. Let us continue to savor our successes and weather all storms, together.

CRIME WATCH: CHEESE THIEF CAUGHT RED-HANDED
By Cam Jones, Crime Beat
Sponsored by Inspector Stiltonâs Security Systems
An attempted heist at Uncle Romanoâs Cheese Shop was foiled late Sunday when vigilant neighbors reported suspicious activity behind the store. Officers arrived to find a masked individual attempting to abscond with a 10-pound wheel of Parmesan, reportedly valued at $250. The suspect, described as âquick on their feet but no match for fresh waxed floors,â was apprehended after a short chase and is currently in custody awaiting charges.
Chief Colby praised the communityâs watchfulness: âWe rely on neighbors looking out for neighborsâand for cheese.â Shop owner Uncle Romano is relieved, noting, âThat parmesanâs been aging since 2018. Weâre glad itâs back where it belongs.â Authorities remind residents to report any suspicious activity and are offering free security consultations at Town Hall this Friday.

Q&A WITH THE COMMUNITY
Sponsored by Ask-a-Cow Helpline
Q: âWhatâs the best cheese for a picnic?â
A: Local chef Brie de Lait weighs in: âYou want a cheese that travels well and doesnât need refrigeration for a couple hours. Sharp cheddar is a classic and always a crowd-pleaser. Add some grapes, crusty bread, and youâre golden. If youâre feeling adventurous, try a smoked gouda or creamy havarti. Just remember to keep it out of direct sun!â
Q: âWhy does the bell ring at noon every day?â
A: According to Town Historian Reuben Roquefort, the noon bell started as a practical signal for farmers and factory workers to break for lunch back in 1860. Over time, it became a beloved traditionâand a friendly reminder for everyone in Mozzerellaford (including the cows) to pause and eat. Itâs said the townâs productivity and happiness both rise after the midday bell.Have a question for the Times? Submit it via our website or drop it in the box at Main Square.

If we ever move to Mars, it could be very very bad. What if there's already "people" on the planet! Maybe they're hiding from us, or worse, they're invisible! It could be the end of the human race!!!!!!
Next time you go outside all happy and cheerful, make sure to watch the sky. You might be abducted by aliens or whatever the heck they are. Never go outside without foil in your pockets and you should NEVER, EVER, try negotiating with the aliens. They'll brainwash you if you don't comply!
