I've recently dug out my awesome binder full of mid-'90s X-Men trading cards, so of course I took it upon myself to start reorganizing them and taking stock of which beloved obscure X-Men characters I might still be missing, because I'm always looking for nerdy things to obsess over. To that end, I traveled down to our dumb neighborhood trading ( Read more... )

For those of you who don't know, Dan is my best buddy from high school (to put it hilariously lightly!). A few months ago, he and his wife totally had a baby! And me, I can mostly take or leave babies, but little Danny III is actually a seriously cool baby. He was chill, quick to laugh, and if he wanted to shift or stand up, he would just ( Read more... )

One is given a word and a question, and must compose a rhyme utilizing the former in the course of answering the latter. I chose the words, ( Read more... )

( Here are some of the suckier parts! )

Mostly for Jamison, but Corey and Rudy might be interested, too.

So I was driving home from work in the rain this afternoon when I was struck by a most unhappy revelation, in that I realized which X-Man is going to die in the giant-sized finale of Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men which comes out (if we're lucky!) in February. As with my Lockheed ( Read more... )

So I stumbled on the Horrorfest website and I'm getting completely overstimulated and I really think these need to be a part of our lives, you guys! Check 'em out!

Borderland - A couple'a guys' spring-break-type road trip collides with one of those Mexican human-sacrifice cults you hear so much about in the true stories upon which this movie is ( Read more... )

So one time I bought the first season of Joey on DVD! I bought it so that I might be able to more effectively lust after Paulo Costanzo in the comfort of my own home! There are worse things to watch, and for worse reasons! I just love him so much! Despite the jeers and scoffs of certain sexy housemates!Kate and I watched Joey tonight! Three ( Read more... )
