How's it goin', smokey - good day? Bad day? And why did it occur to me to call you 'smokey'? Who knows. You may wonder what the hell my pic is doing here; don't ask, all shall be revealed presently.
*ahem*
Questions:
1) Jimmy & Joe (the Event boys - who else?) are looking for some nicknames at their board. Let's hear your creative epiphany on the subject so's they'll stop asking. Just come up with somethin', man! They can't be stopped! (Joe's threatening to torch Jimmy's Spice Girl dolls and Jimmy's threatening to unplug Joe's tube during 'McBeal!')
2) Why this occurs to me is almost as mystifiable as the 'smokey' thing but I just can't see Affleck as TS. Sure he'd kick all ass at the delivery; but the mental picture of the part just screams 'scrawny.' Who else'd do a good job with the part? Heh. (And y'know, despite Amy, despite the Oscars, despite GWH - I still have to refer to Ben as "the guy that played O'Banion" for my friends to know who the hell I'm talking about.)
3) Aren't there any Marvel books/limited series/characters (DD aside) that you can look to with any fondness without going... mmmmmmm - no. (Coincidentally, I found an old Marvel Tales reprinting a Spidey/Doc Strange story by Denny O'Neil & Frank Miller. Good story. Art was great, as usual.)
And the Q that requires the pic...
4)Do I look dark and angry to you? ...Or do I merely look like the 'voice' of these posts? It turned into a sizeable thread over yonder. Gimme your thoughts, O Tired One. Here I thought all this time I merely looked the part of the Minnesotan smartass.
Thanks again for all the time. Glad you're not chargin' for it. I'd be out a bundle.
-Erik!
