The Levithins Are The Best Time Period!!!

I'm suspicious about what the cat is actually doing in the sink.   We seem to be interrupting.

For those who can't get enough of the awful Lovecraftian horror:

You would have to post that link!!  I have no idea how many they had, but I knew I didn't have much time, so had to force myself to stop clicking for more!

You have opened the door to the infinite.   The key to this mystery is the odd fact that many of these people who post photos don't even have cats.  It seems they just sort of appear in the sinks.   At the present rate of spontaneous generation of sink-cats, you cannot possibly click fast enough to keep up.

LOL...This is a funny!!   OT:  I really wish that someone had saved the second half draft outline or whatever so we would know how this story was intended to play out!

Some people have WAAAY too much time on their hands 

And yes, I have cats, and Yes Again, they like to curl up in sinks.  Any questions? <This is your cat.  This is your cat on sinks>

The phrase "Cthulhu effluvia" caught my attention.   I'm going to start dropping it unobtrusively into conversations.

Drop it!? Can you even pronounce it!? LOL

Try that one in the banana fanna song.

Cthulhu effluvia, Cthulhu effluvia, bo-bulhu effluvia
Banana-fana fo-fulhu effluvia
Fee-fi-mo-mulhu effluvia
Cthulhu effluvia!

This is what Jeb must have looked like in it's true form.  If the show were on a network with some money behind it (in series form of course) I would love to see this storyline and see something like this instead of an ashtmatic snake as MT so fondly calls him!

While we are on this topic. Does anyone have a good suggestion of a HP LoveCraft book to read that includes this creature.  I have been wanting to read one forever!

I’d recommend one of the many omnibuses of Lovecraft stories, since most of his Cthulhu mythos work is (oftentimes longish) short fiction. “Call of Cthulhu” is the primary tale that actually features Cthulhu, though it is referenced in many others.

For someone getting into Lovecraft for the first time, this is a pretty good volume, featuring a number of his pivotal works, including “Call of Cthulhu” and “The Dunwich Horror,” which more directly inspired the Leviathans story.

I finished the collected "Watchmen" yesterday (I told you I'm a geek), and after seeing the images in this topic's links, it struck me that the creature in the WM comics is very Cthulhu-like, though also part Cyclops (and I won't get into the disturbing sexual imagery that results from this combination, yikes).

This is OT for Leviathans, but since I'm currently watching the 1897 storyline, it made me smile that the last stop in Ozymandia's journey around the world was Alexandria.

I am huge GEEK too Midnite...your in good company!

I have a shirt that says "and the geeks shall inherit the earth"  (with the linux penguin on it  )

But what a string of comments to hit after seeing the Wild West Tech episode on geek shows (part of the 19th C freak shows, where a "wildman"  bit the head off a chicken or bat).  Who knew Ozzie Osbourne was a geek?
