He's not heavy he's my brother... my funny brother

My brother is a very creative, and very funny guy. One year he gave my husband Klingon Knitting Batliffs for his birthday. Fernando was into knitting, so Pablo bought knitting needles, painted them a bunch of exciting colors, named them knitting batliffs (Fernando loves Star Trek) and made an accompanying card to explain them.

For my birthday one year he made me a Tom Servo doll--my favorite character from the TV show Mystery Science Theatre 3000. MST3K was a show about a guy stuck on a space station and forced to watch terrible movies (old sci fi films, mostly); so he builds some robots to watch with him. The show consists of a shortened version of some terrible movie, with the guy and two robots throwing out one-liners while they watch.





This is the one Pablo made me. One of the best gifts I ever received.

    Those are the best kind of gifts. What a great brother you have.
    I had a friend who used to watch that show. I watched it with him a couple of times.

    Your brother is awesome! I love MST3K, but haven't watched it in a while. Did you know that you can buy "riff tracks" of MST3K (or someone like them) riffing on more contemporary movies? Sierra did that for the birthday party of hers that I attended. The movie was the last Indiana Jone movie (the one with the aliens). It rocked.
