I'll fight you over who laughed harder over Good Omens any day. I'll fight you like a treeful of monkeys on steroids.

Uh... are we talking ratio of time used reading to free time or to hours in the day? 'Cause one is going to leave you feeling a lot friendlier towards me than the other.

... I was mostly kidding about that determining us staying friends. I just don't really get to talk fiction with many people.

You'd think there'd be more nerds among our cohort, wouldn't you? I mean, it takes a certain mindset to look at a bunch of schmucks running around in brightly-colored skintight clothing and think, "Hey, that's what I want to be when I grow up!"

'Course, when I was a kid I wanted to be a research scientist, but that's neither here nor there.

I don't think any of us who do this now - except maybe the Young Avengers - wanted to be costumed superheroes when we were growing up. It just... happened. All I wanted to do when I was a kid is fly.

I got my wish before I got the spandex. Now I just get to do it without a plane.
