Counterside Noise

Hilary Swank flavoured tag-o-muffin servings

Anything and nothing and everything in between with tangents or topics on the subject of Hilary Swank .

For other things to take your fancy, there are other tags.

 

The Reaping and the counting

Shop talk

Dropping on a stone last week, a box full of 3D lenticular promotional cards. Lenticular! Oh what long wait since the late 90s for a lenticular something or anything in a comic shop.

And the soundtrack to the first Spider-Man film doesn't count, even if it angle-tastic.

From Roadshow Films in flogging the new Hilary Swank movie, The Reaping:

A former Christian missionary (Hilary Swank) who lost her faith after her family was tragically killed, has since become a world-renowned expert in disproving religious phenomena. But when she investigates a small Louisiana town that is suffering from what appear to be the Biblical plagues, she realizes that science cannot explain what is happening and she must regain her faith to combat the dark forces threatening the community.


Not a lot going on when it's a slide into time to count and stack the many, many, many(!) cards in the box. One ten makes a pile and then a few more. Until those piles stack themselves so high that the Gods of Egypt will snap a cracking whip into the plebs to build upon itself, a pyramid.

The Reaping, the counting, oh, the counting

All up, like the take down of the below the line of the big white sheet thing at the recent state elections, 793 cards all up. Good thing to flip over too. They work well as postcards to strangers and friends. All that ample white space and it's of a sturdy card stock to boot.

Drop in, pick one up. Or more. It's not like other people don't want to have strange things sent to them in the mail you know.
