Oh, that cfb. Quietly lurking away. Watching us all, w/ his eyebrow raised. Ha-- Uatu should be yer avatar, there, cfb! Or. . . perhaps Mt Rushmore, eh? (That would be kinda cool, actually. . . )
Hey, but hope you're enjoying your combined Birthday/Labor Day weekend. Perhaps. . . perhaps an experimental grilled birthday cake would be worth a try, hmm?

Holy cats, I'm way, way, way, WAAAY behind at checking in on this board-! Pym, thanks so much for keeping track, and a belated happy b-day right back atcha-! Bobc, Happy Birthday to both of us once again this year, eh?
My Mom had called a couple of weeks ago to ask "What do you want for your birthday?". She has a life-long history of mis-hearing or mis-remembering gift suggestions, or ( worse by far) finding things that are "just as good" that are remainders, damaged, or cheap imitations. "Mom, write this down: Marvel Treasury Edition #13- Holiday Grab Bag. I've been strongly hinting about it to for a couple of years, but it never makes the cut here at home. And it won't cost you a mint, truly. I promise you, I will love it." And lo & behold- my good ol' Mom came through! I fully expected to receive something like a tin Marvel "Treasure Box". . . or #12 or #14 (if #13 weren't available), but by golly, my comics-disdaining Mom sent me a really surprisingly nice, clean copy-- god bless 'er!
(The back cover, which is a beautifully rendered and colored Christmas Card, is one of my favorite super-hero themed holiday images ever. . . )
On the home front, several new Christmas music CD's, a terrific new Avengers T-Shirt, and the 6th volume of Fantagraphic's ongoing Prince Valiant collections. And a hilarious Broadway card/booklet created by HBGirl.
We also had a small solo & ensemble performance/recital for the Baltimore Gamers Symphony Orchestra that evening (HBSon's a co-founder; I'm in the choir), and went to the most hipster/kitschy diner on the planet to celebrate afterwards. "The Paper Diner" in Baltimore-- I'd recommend the food and the overwhelming ambience-- but the unusual soviet-collective inspired service model leaves something to be desired, perhaps. "When EVERYONE is your waiter, NO ONE is your waiter-!"-- to make a familiar paraphrase--!
HB-- (one year older!)

Belated happy birthday to bobc & humanbelly!
HB, I'm glad your tale had a happy ending. I was going to say you could email your mom a link to it, but it worked out anyway. By the way, I actually saw a Giant Superhero Holiday Grab-Bag Marvel Treasury Sized Special for $10 at the LCS, but I don't think it was the one you asked for, so I guess I don't feel bad that I didn't pick it up for you.

Thank you, pym! prodigalson (the non-artist formerly known as Doctor Bong Crosby...). Ahh-hahaha-! AAAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!! Really, Bong?? REALLY???You. . . you are, like, a measurable demographic percentile of the membership roll here ALL BY YOURSELF!! Dude, you're Jamie Madrox, the Multiple Man! You're an insidious replicoid collective entity, bent on board (and then world!) domination! You're the Pod People! You're the relentless TV promos for "Empire"--!! Y'know, our theater parted ways w/ our Artistic Director recently. . . you. . . you're going to be his replacement, aren't you- (I am being afraid. I am being very afraid!) HB

You´re on to my subtle, yet well crafted plans for world domination! After all, the world´s a stage. I´m afraid you know too much now, friend. However, a theather company may well prove too much drama for my taste (horrible pun fully intended...). So I may be persuaded to let you live, for now (Black Forest Cake would be a suitable bribe, hint, hint...). And now, in the immortal words of Snagglepuss, "Exit, stage left!".
