Charlton Heston

I was just looking up “Soylent Green” to see if it had been invented yet and I found out that in this timeline they actually made a movie out of it starring Charlton Heston.

Now if that doesn’t just beat all.

No matter how much I think I may have gotten used to this time/space rift thing invariably something like this comes along and throw me for a loop.

In the world I remember Charlton Heston starred in a movie about vicious primates who had taken over the planet in the future.

It was called “Planet of the Republicans”.

He also played Rameses in “The Ten Commandments”.

He was a big laser-gun* nut, and he actually died from an accidental self-inflicted laser-gunshot wound.  He apparently was so old and senile that he forgot to set the safety.

They buried him with that laser-gun because nobody wanted to pry it out of his cold dead hands.

*I just found out you don’t even have laser guns in this timeline.  This timeline sucks.

    Spamrider

    Spamrider of the Apocalypse is just some crazy dude who contacted us out of the blue one day claiming to be a time traveler who had discovered that he had already been publishing information on our website for years while he was visiting the future.  Neither me or Steve had ever heard of him before so we don’t know if he’s ACTUALLY crazy or what, but he’s definitely weird, and is probably full of crap, so we both just looked at each other, shrugged are shoulders, and pretty much just went with it.
