Brilliant, brilliant, freaking brilliant! XD The last 15 minutes were nothing short of inspired, especially when you consider how the characters (and writers) entered this season. Now Jack’s on a “slow boat to China.” (A bad, bad joke… and a wickedly funny one, nonetheless.) Wow. This is officially my favorite season: strong and taut writing [...]

This week didn’t kill my wallet. (YAY!) – THE DEVIL DOES EXIST, Vol. 6 by Mitsuba Takanashi (DC CMX) – FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST, Vol. 7 by Hiromu Arakawa (VIZ MEDIA/ ACTION) – GALS!, Vol. 6 by Mihona Fujii (DC CMX)

Saturday Work, work, run errands, dinner, work and watch the last of the SMALLVILLE, Season 3 box set. Sunday Mother’s Day lunch with Mom and JR, work, errands, work, work, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, GREY’S ANATOMY. You go, Lynette! (That’s probably how I’d handle the situation.) Poor Gaby.

Screw AMERICAN IDOL. They can bugger off. I’m done. Chris was the one contestant who was “performance ready” from the start. Unlike just about every other competitor, none of his efforts were utter train wrecks. If he gets with the right producers and team, this guy has the potential to make music that people — [...]

I’ve been a major blog slacker over the last couple months. The “whys” aren’t so important to most of the people reading this, but the short version is that I’ve been busy — insanely busy — with work. (This is really *great* news, although it’s semi-exhausting for me. ^_^) The pace also seems to be [...]

I consider the fact I’m posting this on a weeknight to be a victory. :-) There seems to be a “feast or famine” effect with orders placed through Diamond Comics. Only one of my preorders came in last week, so I’m sure most people can guess — even before reading the list — what kind [...]
