"One more thing about "Conan" before I forget (again). One criticism I have encountered concerning the comic books is that Conan is to verbose in comparison to the novels. I don't think that's necessarily true, but it occurs to me that I wish someone…"
"STAR TREK LOG SIX - "Albatross"
Inspired by several gimmicky episodes of SNW in a row, I decided to read some real Trek in an attempt to scrub them from my mind. While I am here, I will probably read the other stories in the volume before returning…"

"Although I did not read any original REH stories until 1982, between the Marvel comic book and the ever-present paperbacks on drugstore bookracks, I have been aware of Conan the Barbarian for nearly as long as I can remember. I probably didn't…"

"I've read three more "Conan" stories (in bold below). Sticking with the Cimmerian's early career, I moved on to Howard's last three Conan stories, all published posthumously. I cannot really dscern a difference in style, but he wrote Conan stories…"

"Did someone mention...Star Wars?"
"It's good to have you back, Bill. The back-and-forth conversation hasn't been as spirited and lively as it has been this afternoon in far too long of a time."

"No, but while I'm here I thought I'd take the time to mention that The Jedi Path is a real dud. I was going to sneak back in at some point and quitely ad an EDIT without bumping it back up to the top with a new post, but the entire point of this…"
"I suspected as much. "
"Harrison Ford is on record for that famous ad lib"
"So, I guess you weren't a student who highlighted parts of novels to later quote in letters to people you were trying to impress (see: weird love life hacks)."
