A few months ago I described a specific type of injection-molding souvenir machine to a friend but we couldn’t remember the name of it. We never did look it up and we soon turned our attention to other things, forgetting all about it.
This afternoon, randomly, I remembered: [tag]Mold-A-Rama[/tag]! I was so happy I wanted to buy one. You can get custom molds, people. Think of the possibilities! (I’m thinking about insects and other art-related projects. You people need to get your minds out of the gutter)
About two hours after my brain regurgitated the long-dormant information I sought, the mailman brought me [tag]Wonderfalls[/tag], a show that was recommended by Pushing Daisies fans, but which I’d never watched. Six minutes into the pilot episode they showed the inner workings of…a Mold-A-Rama machine.
The world works in spooky ways.
I think I like the show. It’s more [tag]Pushing Daisies[/tag] than [tag]Dead Like Me[/tag] (all are [tag]Bryan Fuller[/tag] creations). I didn’t get to watch very much as the disc was too scratched to watch and I had to ask Netflix to send another one. (The 3rd one this month).
Sheep related content: for his birthday Husband cooked tasty lamb. From New Zealand (or rather, from New Zealand via Whole Foods). We can only hope it wasn’t from [tag]zombie sheep[/tag].
I used to watch Wonderfalls. Didn’t much like it. Then again, never saw Daisies or Dead, so maybe I’m just not that into Brian Fuller. I’m sure he’ll get over it.
More pop tarts information. Now, please!
Wonderfalls was only on for a couple of episodes – the premise was pretty cool but they seemed to veer away from it as it went on. Still, it is on my list of dvds to buy in the hopes that all the unseen episodes returned to the main theme.
Soon I can tell you. How confusing that they showed those first episodes all out of order. Well, the new and hopefully playable discs will arrive for the weekend I hope.
I used to love the smell of hot wax from the mold machines at the Lowry Park Zoo from the 70’s. I think I went to work for them 25 years later just so I could catch a whiff of hot paraffin wafting amidst the pungent zoo residents.
I just clicked on the link – the Mold-a-rama is from Tampa…and it was used in zoos. weeeeeird.
Jungle Gardens is the one I remember most vividly.
