Ten years ago today ...
Posted on February 20, 2011 at 7:56pm 19 Comments 5 Likes
On this day 10 years ago, I was in an accident that totaled my car. I am grateful today for three things:
That I was in the car by myself; I doubt a passenger would have survived.
That I walked away from it whole; save for some pain in my side that lasted about a week, I was and remain physically sound.
That God saw fit to spare me, that I may carry on in this world and be the husband, father and person He wants me to be.
I am also grateful to have…

From the old board, I launched the "President Luthor" thread with this post (July 21, 2003):
At my last visit to my friendly neighborhood comics shop, I say the President Luthor trade paperback. I haven't read the Superman titles for several years (heresy, I know), and the notion of Lex Luthor becoming President of the U.S. wasn't enough to entice me back.
It's a nifty idea, I'll admit ... but the time to do it was very shortly after the… Continue

Bugs Bunny, the greatest baseball player ever
Posted on August 18, 2009 at 2:49pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
I just ran across this sportswriter's analysis of "Baseball Bugs," the classic Looney Tunes short in which Bugs Bunny takes on the Gas House Gorillas all by himself -- starting in the fourth inning of a game in which the Gorillas are leading the Tea Totallers 54-0 -- and wins 96-95. It's funny because it's so, so serious ... "Bugs Bunny, Greatest Banned Player Ever"
