Smoke and Mirrors came in today. Gotta finish Wicked (co-worker lent it to me a few months ago), but I'm on my way.

Trying to read Hudson City in spurts. Man, would it kill him to write one Arab who doesn't have a suicide belt locked in his closet?

And the Germans can be freaking cool sometimes.

And I love Asimov:

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but 'That's funny ...'
-- Isaac Asimov

It's sad, but I'm really looking forward to Teen Champions. We don't really get much Hero stuff at the store anymore, since I think our game manager's slightly miffed at their "Hey, buy from us, not the stores!" stance.

Someone pointed out that Mutants and Masterminds is the sole remaining combatant in the Great Superhero Wars of '02, with GoO and Hero both suffering from injuries.

I want a copy of Villany Amok, myself. Any supplement that has rules for "Two heros get married" is just cool. I wonder if it has stats for The Beatles?

Likely it involves making small children wear leather pants.

Is it just me, or did that link go to a David Hasselhof fan site?

I suspect that Bitter is secretly a big David Hasselhof fan. Secretly. I'm sure that I saw a couple of heroclix custom painted to look like David from Knight Rider, Bay Watch, his full white singing outfit with the white trench coat, etc.

... now, if you excuse me, I have to go to electro shock therapy to remove these images I've put in my own brain. ZZZAATT, ahhhh... ZZZAAATTT, ahhhh.

I own a Michael Knight action figure. And the Scourge clix can be easily modified into a White Coat DH.

I hear, anyway. Pure speculation.

I'm a huge fan of Asimov. I actually attempted to collect his books, but at 88 books, I'm only 1/5 of the way there.

I enjoy his stuff, but he's got so much it's hard to figure out where to start.

I had a copy of his Mysteries that got destroyed when my wife's classroom got trashed a couple years ago.
