PART TEN – We begin this installment with a much more mature and sober-minded Ozidi. We’ve seen him go from his wild and unavoidable embrace of violence during his revenge quest against the murderers of his father to destructively maintaining that reflexive violence after his vengeance had been achieved.
From there we saw him learn humility from facing disastrous setbacks – albeit temporary ones – in combat and last time around we saw Ozidi grow disillusioned with violence due to the tragic circumstances it brought on.
Our now more serious hero has resumed his walks around his unfit uncle King Temugedege’s land Orua. Word reached him about the abuses being inflicted on the people by the brutish Ogodu, a muscular hulk of a man who had a malformed face with the eyes on top of his head.

PART 76 – As always, it’s fascinating to read the over 100-year-old opinions of James Larkin Pearson (and by extension his Fool Killer), including the opinions that one doesn’t agree with. Here are the Fool Killer’s targets in July, 1915:
I WOKE UP EARLY THE DAY I DIED (1998) – Directed by Aris Iliopulos, this is the film that was made based on that notorious unproduced script written by THE Ed Wood, the master of badfilm behind Glen or Glenda, Plan 9 From Outer Space and more.
There’s no dialogue, Easter Eggs regarding Wood’s various Golden Turkeys abound and excerpts from the actual screenplay appear on screen at times in case viewers are skeptical that the weirdness they’re witnessing really was in the original script.
CORONET BLUE (1967) – Another intriguing but short-lived television series created by future
A TIME TO BE BORN, A TIME TO DIE – After our amnesiac hero pulls himself out of New York Harbor he adopts the name Michael Alden based on the name of the physician treating him and the hospital in which he is laid up. His fingerprints come back with no match and Michael goes on the run from his enigmatic pursuers and struggles to learn what “Coronet Blue” means.
NAIA OVER NCAA DIVISION TWO – And another NAIA football team toppled a team from a higher division.
