MTV Hits is playing 90s hits. Awesome. Reminds me of roller skating.
A bunch of people hit the site over the weekend by typing the URL directly. Weird.
Go Colts! I like Tennessee, but would rather see the Browns make the playoffs.
Rain this weekend ruined all my plans
2007 Year In Review: Movies, Music, and TV →
I’m summing up all other media here. Kind of realized that it was a down year all over to me for media. Movies: I really can’t say there was a stand out movie for me this year. Spider-Man and Pirates of The Caribbean were both disappointing to me. i enjoyed them, but Spider-man 3 had so much stuff packed into it, and Pirates just seemed like a big video game. Fantastic Four: Rise of...
I now have a command center
2007 Year In Review: The Comics →
It’s that time of year again - time to wrap up the best of media of 2007. I’ll spend the next couple of days reviewing my personal favorites in movies, music, and comics; starting today with comics. Let me know what your favorites were. —- Here are my favorite comics from the past year, in no particular order. World War Hulk - After the hand wringing of Civil War, we got the sort...
@beaucoupkevin RE: B.O.B. - Not in Stankonia it isn’t. Also: Crunkest song ever made.
@beaucoupkevin can I do that for reals? Cause if so, they would be yours.
I still had like 5 or 6 downloads left on eMusic from last month, but I let them slip by. Never can figure out what to download.
Buying stuff when I know I shouldn’t be spending money.
Looking at a bunch of open source software. Makes me want to build a computer just to play with the stuff.

Here’s is the last new comics shipment of the year, that doesn’t come out until Friday for some strange reason. PREVIEWS $4.50 USAGI YOJIMBO #108 $2.99 HULK VS FIN FANG FOOM ONE SHOT $3.99 This bad boy sold itself on a solicitation of just a picture of Hulk about to punch Foom by Bernard Chang. No artist was announced at the solicitation, so I didn’t beleive we’d ever see...
I’m just a good ol’ boy, never meaning no harm.
In the office. Yes, I’m cold. That’s why I have on a fleece and a hat.
Got a spam message from “tamica fuerbringer”. Fuerbringer sounds like a Nazi Super-villain.
Going to put it off until Thursday
Debating if I want to go to Lowes now or in the morning.
Sunday Round Up 12/23/07 →
Light posting this past week, and probably the same going forward. It’s been pretty busy lately, so not as much time to post stuff. Not sure that it’s going to change too much in the next couple of weeks, but we’ll see. I’ll probably try and pre-write some stuff, and post stuff later in the week. —- That new issue of The Hulk with Hercules? It was really, really good....
I kind of hope the writers strike keeps up. Then I can watch a bunch of shows I never have on Netflix.
KA-BOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!
MY HEAD WILL NOW EXPLODE
Undeclared is pretty much the sequel to Freaks and Geeks.
Awesome Flash Game http://tinyurl.com/yugee2 via http://geekadelphia.com/
To many candies and cakes around the office today
There must just be one copy of the Flight of the Conchords DVD at the Columbia Netflix Hub

I wanted to be Turbo Teen when I grew up. I have failed miserably. Incidentally, this video reminded me of this.
Sleepy for some reason. Wish I could go home and take a nap.
Sleepy, but doing work for my wife.

IMMORTAL IRON FIST #11 $2.99 SHE-HULK 2 #24 $2.99 Not much I can say here - two of the best books on the market today. I’m happy Peter David has keep She-Hulk as a top quality book.

Heroclix: Figures we need →
Looking over the new and remade figures we’ve gotten so far from Heroclix, I realize we’re starting to get to the bottom of the barrel. I’ve gone back and looked at the first three sets for both Marvel and DC, and here are some figures that need to be remade, in my opinion (Note: I’m not counting the Marvel Universe set as a remake, because those were some weak remakes, in...
I HATE this Hardees commercial for the Philly Cheesesteak Burger. I don’t think people from Philly talk like that.
I still need to do my Previews order…
Is Clandestine any good? Worth getting the trade?
Sunday Round Up 12/16/07 →
Light posts this past week, because I was on the road in Las Vegas. It’s a city dedicated to spectacle, and has to be seen to believe. Anyone know if a superhero book has even been based in Las Vegas? —- Quick Hit Reviews: In addition to reading X-Men: First Class, I also read the Dwayne McDuffie New Fantastic Four trade. Best Fantastic Four run since the Waid/Ringo stuff. Abyss #2...
Off to Onderon
Reviews: X-Men: First Class →
Jeff Parker and Roger Cruz’s X-Men: First Class is a great reminder of why we love the X-Men. It’s got the family of mutants that you know and love, sharing personal moments with one another, and still having time to fight a menace to mutant and humankind. The book takes a look at the Year One/Untold Tales time of the five original X-Men (or six, if you count Professor X): Cyclops,...
I was just told I’m no longer in marketing, but now in R&D.
Dear person(s) sitting on Flight of the Conchords with Netflix Columbia: MAIL IT IN PLEASE. OTHER PEOPLE WANT TO WATCH IT.
@beaucoupkevin I wish it would snow here…It is 72+ degrees in Columbia.
I am surrounded by spectacle.

Another light week - all digests this week. Looks like my slow cutting of monthlies is working, and also mostly because there isn’t much worth reading anymore. Anyway, here’s the stash: MARVEL ADVENT FANTASTIC FOUR TP VOL 07 SILVER SURFER DIGEST $6.99 I think this is a Fred Van Lente joint, so it should be good. BETTY & VERONICA DIGEST #180 $2.49 I need to cut back on these Archie...
Leg is asleep
40 degrees & dude is wearing shorts & flip flops

Off work today, but still end up doing work. Boo to that.
CONFESSION: I think Jay-Z is over rated.
Meetings, meeting, meeting.
