Wait... Michael Crichton is dead and overrated hack writers like Dean Koontz and Stephen King are still alive? That's some f'ed up bullshit right there.

Shit.

WELL I GUESS BY THE DIM LIGHT IN YOUR EYES THAT TO YOU ALL THINGS COME AS A SURPRISE
I SHOULD SET THE STEELTRAP OF YOUR THIGHS AND DIVE RIGHT IN

FAKE!!!!

This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell its fake, the shadows are all wrong.

This looks like Max's science teacher in the movie Never Back Down. He's the one that was always assigning those f***ed up projects.

THIRTY-SEVENTH'D

I was going to do The bloodhound Gang's "The Bad Touch" for you next, but I'm enjoying it too much to take time to transcribe it.

"that great dinosaur park in the sky" - unless you're being inserted (reincarnated, whatever, the theology behind such a statement is screwed) as a T-Rex or something quick and bitey, that would be a pretty crappy way to spend eternity... then comes the screaming and the running

Roy Castle's dead.

WELL HE WENT DOWN TO DINNER IN HIS SUNDAY BEST
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID
AND HE RUBBED THE POT ROAST ALL OVER HIS CHEST
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID

WELL HE'S JUST AN EXCITEABLE BOY

HE TOOK IN THE FOUR A.M. SHOW AT THE CLARK
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID
AND HE BIT THE USHERETTE'S LEG IN THE DARK
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID

WELL HE'S JUST AN EXCITEABLE BOY

SAX BRIDGE F*** YEAH

HE TOOK LITTLE SUZY TO THE JUNIOR PROM
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID
AND HE RAPED AND KILLED AND HE TOOK HER HOME
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID (EXCITEABLE BOY)

WELL HE'S JUST AN EXCITEABLE BOY

AFTER TEN LONG YEARS THEY LET HIM OUT OF THE HOME
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID
AND HE DUG UP HER GRAVE AND BUILT A CAGE WITH HER BONES
EXCITEABLE BOY THEY ALL SAID (EXCITEABLE BOY)

WELL HE'S JUST AN EXCITEABLE BOY

OOOOOH, AAAAH-OOH, OOH-OOH
EXCITEABLE BOY

I NEEDED YOU, I KNEW I WAS IN DANGER
OF LOSING WHAT I USED TO THIN WAS MINE
YOU LET ME LOVE YOU 'TIL I WAS A FAILURE
YOU LET ME LOVE YOU 'TIL I WAS A FAILURE -
YOUR BEAUTY ON MY BRUISE LIKE IODINE
I ASKED YOU IF A MAN COULD BE FORGIVEN
AND THOUGH I FAILED AT LOVE, WAS THIS A CRIME?
YOU SAID DON'T WORRY
DON'T WORRY DARLING
YOU SAID DON'T WORRY
DON'T WORRY, DARLING
THERE ARE MANY WAYS A MAN CAN SERVE HIS TIME

(SAX KICKS OFF IN THE BACKGROUND)

YOU COVERED UP THAT PLACE I COULD NOT MASTER
IT WASN'T DARK ENOUGH TO SHUT MY EYES
SO I WAS WITH YOU, OH SWEET COMPASSION
YES, I WAS WITH YOU, OH SWEET COMPASSION
COMPASSION WITH THE STING OF IODINE

YOUR SAINTLY KISSES REEKED OF IODINE
YOUR FRAGRANCE WITH A FUME OF IODINE
AND PITY IN THE ROOM LIKE IODINE

FAINT:
YOUR SISTER FINGERS BURNED LIKE IODINE
AND ALL MY WANTON LUST WAS IODINE
MY MASQUERADE OF TRUST WAS IODINE
AND EVERYWHERE THE FLARE OF IODINE

YOU HAVE NO LIFE GEOFF

LEAVE A COMMENT SAYING BAN GEOFF IF YOU THINK HE SHOULD BE BANNED FROM GEEKOLOGIE

Mate, I f***ing rock. I've posted like forty of these fifty comments.

THE JARMANS ARE COMEN

FOCK MY LOIF

MAN, THERE'S CISE IN MY HISE. TH FOCK'RE Y'DOEN, YOU FOCKEN FENIAN?

DINE, YER TEA'S READY. DINE, IT'S YER MA. GET O'ER HERE, Y'HOOER.

FOCK OP

For someone with nothing to do I'm finding myself nicely entertained, and, it seems, I've served to silence the usual blitherings from the resident morons and their impostors.

F***ING WALLY ALL OVER YOUR FACE

BELIEVE IT

At least show some respect to Michael Crichton

Look at you moderating my comments. Months of moronic behaviour from your pet chimps overlooked, and I take the time to transcribe a fewscore songs I happen to be listening to - which, I'll have you know, is incredibly hard, typing out a song as you listen to it - for YOUR potential enjoyment, and this is how I'm treated? PAH. Next time I won't bother wasting my evening sitting in a comments section writing forty-odd comments for me own amusement, OH NO.

Think about it. Can geekologie really survive with no posts of relevance or interest beyond those designating their posting positon and conjecturing that the previous poster is either homosexual or the result of sexual congress between two mental deficients? I THINK NOT.

Take my sarcasm and stick it up your nose. PARP.

EXACTLY. Bottoms and willies in your eyes.

FIFTY-NINTH'D

Sorry, Daisy, kind of eclipsed you there. Still, if you're going to do this, you've got to know how to do it well, right?

SIXTYTH'D

I don't care about you posting so much, but I do care that you are showing no respect to Michael Crichton.

What's up with the idiots going "Zomg!!!11! Photoshop!!!!11 Fake!!!!"? Who cares if the picture is faked or not, it's the story that's important. And how exactly would a picture with a bit of Photoshopping in it screw it up? It's him, either way. Dumbasses.

RIP Michael Crichton.

Who the f***'s Michael Crichton, and why should I care? From what I've seen he's one of those authors that releases shedloads of books, all with the author's name larger than the title of the book. That = shite author, as a general rule.

JURASSIC PARK WHOOP WHOOP RESPECT THIS TALENTLESS SCROTUM

But yeah, cancer's a stinker. Poor bloke.

SIXTY-FOURTH'D

This site has gone to complete shit. I still like the articles but I'd like to kick Daisy and GEOFF in the face.

I'm really upset that Michael Crichton died. He was one of my favorite contemporary fiction writers.

Geoff Leppard:
This is your life. Right now. This is your f***ing life! 2 hours of posts... I only read through them 'cause I was shocked at the number of posts and apparent concern for Crichton, whom I don't really care about. But instead I see an entire column of inane, unfunny jackassery. You make me want to cry, and I haven't cried since I screwed your mom.

MY MOM'S DEAD, MAAAAAAAAAN

HOW COULD YOU BE SO INSENSITIVE

I HAVEN'T CRIED THIS MUCH SINCE MICHAEL CRICHTON DIED OF CANCER OF THE WRITINGDECENTBOOKS LOBE.

I have to admit Geoff, you have outdone Daisy. You are know the chief jackass of Geekologie.

I meant now instead of know, I always mess that up

I have been since before it was Geekologie, chum.

SEVENTY-FIRST'D

SEVENTY-SECOND'D

Will this madness continue forever?

I used to like this guy, until he decided there was no such thing as global warming.

Remember kids: Don't feed the troll. He's a parasite on your annoyed attitude. Ignore him.
One of my favorite authors of all time, and now I'll never be able to run out and buy a new release the day it comes out. Sad, sad day. Jurassic Park was just the tip of the iceberg. I never read anything by Crichton that I didn't enjoy.

WWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@75
Your right, if we ignore him he will leave

I'm crabby today. That black guy won the presidential thingy, and another black guy is the champion of F1 racing.
How long before coloreds invade hockey?

I don't think you have to dislike his stance on global warming at face value, though. You should realize that healthy skepticism is necessary in science, and that examining ALL the evidence for something is most important. Global warming is real, but the media has exaggerated some of it. Look at An Inconvenient Truth. A lot of it was BS designed to dazzle the media into showing a greater problem than there really was (I.e., sea levels). State of Fear may not have been accurate, but at least it showed some sources... unlike the daily reports on CNN.

@74 - Same reason I can't stand Al Gore - he used to be a good VP, discovering the internet and all. Then he decided there was this global warming thing and made an ass out of himself. At least he won an oscar award for best science fiction powerpoint presentation.

The article said he was privately battling cancer. Maybe if he would have gone to a Dr or something he'd have had a better chance.

I'm just sayin.

I'm sure he actually went to a doctor, but he probably wanted to keep the story out of the media. He was an M.D., so he probably knew better than to suffer without medical care.

Evel Knievel's dead.

@82 - how do you know?

MAN. I am f***ing annoyed. All this "if we ignore him he'll leave" shite? Have some consideration for time differences, kids. It's 1 a.m. here, but if I go to bed now you'll feel vindicated, and that wouldn't be right because you're moronic.

Shit. Predicament or what?

EIGHTY-FIFTH'D

It's sad, i was just reading Lost World and i read here about his death and now the Jurassic Park got extinct at last with him...

F*** you comment whores

I just started crying when I saw that headline

Leonard Rossiter's dead.

(sighs) All of the great writers seem to either be falling ill or passing away this past year.

Rest in peace, Michael Crichton. You deserve it.

1. by far my favorite author
2. Geoff is a complete retard
3. dont hate him just because he believes in global warming; I dont believe in it at all, but he is still a hell of an author

Only the Dead protect the living.
Only the Dead can protect the living.
Only the Dead have protected the living.
All forms of death. Protect all forms of life.

It's f***ing absolutely OK if you don't care.
They care. The dead care.

THE END.

Sad, sad news.....Crichton will be greatly missed. I didn't even know he had cancer. It's like Robert Jordan and the Wheel of Time series all over again. :(

On a completely unrelated note--you know, I like sarcasm as much as the next person, but when news like this comes up, have some f***ing decency and show some respect. Really. You want to act like an ass, do it on your own blog. Now will someone PLEASE ban Geoff Leppard and Daisy before I bust a nut...

RIP Mitchell Crichton. I really enjoyed your work. Especially the Andromeda Stain.

@92 - I thought busting a nut was a euphemism for ejaculation.

John Candy's dead.

So apparently Geoff Leaopard left a few comments.

Cancer Sucks.

@80: Touche...

come on guys lets make it 100 comments for Michael Crichton' sake

He will always live on in our memories and his work as an author will make him immortal. R.I.P

He will always live on in our memories and his work as an author will make him immortal. R.I.P

Sorry, I double posted by accident

Only idiots double post.

Only idiots double post

yay over 100!!! R.I.P Michael Crichton

the publicity whore kicked the butt.

I guess god needed another best selling author up there in heaven.

I farted.

Haven't been here for a couple of days so this will probably fall on deaf ears, but I'm gonna say my piece anyway.

Geoff, by the look of things (including your comment about the time at which you posted) I would hazard a guess that you are an Aussie? If so I am f***ing ashamed of you mate. If not, thank Christ. In either case, I sincerely hope you are hit by a bus filled with cybernetically-enhanced flaming zombie raptors.

Now to the important bit:
Farewell Michael Chrichton. Every one of your books entertained, inspired and sometimes even taught me something. Thanks for giving the kid in me (and probably all the rest of us) hope that we might one day see a real live dinosaur. You will be missed. RIP mate, but only when you aren't partying with Robert Jordan.

Thorg's bus bit sounded contrived and made me cringe for him.
