I truly love Guinness. See? Here I am, loving Guinness. Unfortunately, I’m loving it out of a bottle and not from the tap, but I take what I can get. The six-pack that I purchased from a liquor store called “Fiesta City Liquors” marks the first time I’ve had the ol’ black and tan inContinue reading “A Blur of Tan and Black”

Stripping On A Saturday Night
I ordered the stripper for Saturday night. You’ll be there, right? These are words I never thought I’d hear coming from the mouth of my middle-aged female boss. Uh-whuh?, I responded. It turns out that Saturday night is the night they’ll be stripping the floors at the store. Sunday night, they’ll apply a fresh coatContinue reading “Stripping On A Saturday Night”
A Blog In Segments!
Segment One: Things I Like: The Dark Knight, which was a cinematic orgasm the likes of which I have not experienced in years. It really is the perfect film and we’re trying to reorganize our finances so we can see it again. The Watchmen trailer, which makes me wish it was 2009 already. Cheese. TheContinue reading “A Blog In Segments!”
The World is Dead, Long Live the World
I’ve decided that “the gubment” should send out stimulus checks every month. It’s awesome being able to pay a bunch of bills and order a stack of comics from an online retailer. So! I need one of the following to take place: 1: I need to get a better paying job. 2: I need toContinue reading “The World is Dead, Long Live the World”

She Blinded Me With Science (Fiction)!
That may very well be one of my favorite blog titles I’ve ever typed. Pardon me whilst I pat myself on the back for that. — The AFI (The American Film Institute) released a list of lists that list (what?) the top ten greatest films in a selection of genres; Animation, Romantic Comedy, Western, etc.Continue reading “She Blinded Me With Science (Fiction)!”
Between The Sneezes
It seems I’m in just the right place regarding weather; No flooding this far north, and no fires this far east, and no heat waves this far west. I’m safely and securely in the middle of all the chaos, where I am happy to report the worst weather I have to deal with is whenContinue reading “Between The Sneezes”
In Which The Writer Assures You He Is Still Alive
Yes, I still live. Things have been hectic around here, though in all honesty, no more hectic than they usually are. The real reason for my absence is that I finished the sixth and seventh books in the Harry Potter series. The end of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince made me cry, but didContinue reading “In Which The Writer Assures You He Is Still Alive”
Gene Colan And Why The Hero Initiative Exists
Gene Colan, one of my favorite Silver Age artists, who is probably better known for his work on Daredevil and Tomb of Dracula, though I’ll always remember for his work on Dr. Strange, has fallen ill. Being an old timer in the comic book industry means he is among the long list of truly legendaryContinue reading “Gene Colan And Why The Hero Initiative Exists”
