Experimenting with Roman Numerals Day XXXIV

Coming soon , to a theatre near you , unless you are a caribou , The Hobo Sleeps Alone ! starring the fresh face from Taiwan , Joe Shmo as the sheriff of Hoboville ; he's the new Rambo ; he's the guy who steps up to the plate ; he's the guy who is all-American and above all ; he's the guy who can do what the president hasn't been able to do ; he's the guy who has the answers !

Yes , it is the 4th installment of the Hobo Chronicles , the one in which the anti-establishment and retro Luddites , aided only by wooden spoons and a mule , bring down the world of technology and vow to grow potatoes !That's right -- the long awaited sequel to the cliff hanger in which director Pillow Von noDoz reveals that the world is now scabbed by metal , and machinery rules ; where the only refuge is a network of underground tunnels ; where organic matter barely clings to life , drying in the cracks of a computerized civilization grown rabid and drooly . People , thought extinct , now exist only as flesh and aluminum riveted together , and our heroes slink from hole to hole trying to piece together the myth of a world gone gray and dying as bombs and flak fill the cold skies . Now , after Weasel-bot discovers the Luddite plans for dismantling the all-powerful corporate machines , will he destroy the plans ? Will he smuggle out the plans ( complete with diagrams and coded instructions describing integral circuitry and proper screwdriving techniques ) ; will he be stopped at the border with illegal contraband ; will he run low on windshield washer fluid and run off the road into a rotting trove of ancient tumbleweed copper wire detritus ; will he get the plans to the secret Luddite council and be summarily disassembled and used for spare parts and then placed covertly into the master machines central nervous system only to fail because of an overlooked lithium battery but heroically save the day by discovering a reserve power in his eyelash flickering system ? Can the love of his life and object of machine lust weep at his sacrifice only fail to do so because of her innate tendency to feel no remorse ?


See it , the movie , starring the cute robot man that is eventually revealed in the final 3 minutes of .................

Hoboland and the Gears of Justice .


rated PG-13 for violence and naked monkey parts and some illicit robot love filmed through a smoke filter so as to assume a cloud of incongruity and unpleasantness's incurred by the wrath of the Bruce Willis society for the protection of lugnuts and their like .
