Thanks, but I may have solved the problem. GENERIC_OBJECT_IMAGE (etc.) 
was a constant, and I was trying to change the value of that constant so 
that it'd hold a Surface instead of the original string. Python didn't 
seem to like that. Instead I made GENERIC_OBJECT_IMAGE_FILENAME to hold 
the string, then loaded the image into GENERIC_OBJECT_IMAGE, and the 
program then behaved. In that respect. So far.

In general, Pygame gets confusing when you want to have multiple 
included modules drawing to the same screen Surface.

The thing I'm working on, I'm showing off here:

I hope to post some simple Python demos to the PCR too.
