Thanks! :thumbup:
I just bought an issue of WORLD FAMOUS CREATURES magazine from 1959, which was the first Famous Monster rip-off mag. It's got great John Severin art! :buggedout:
I got it for $1.00 from an old lady at Busy Bee Flea Market!
Dig this- I bought 3 weeks ago the whole run of the INVADERS (#1-#41) for $45 dollars on Ebay.
Nobody saw the auction, cuz the guy was only selling 4 or 5 things-it went under the radar. I was the only bidder. The bid started at 40 bucks. The 5 was for shipping.
Its from the 70's, and features Capt.America and Bucky, Namor, the Human Torch and Toro, and 2 issues have Thor (!) one has the Frankenstein Monster (!!!), the Red Skull is there as well, Baron Zemo, some cool Kirby covers-! Great stuff.
Great art by Frank Robbins and Alan Kupperburg too, who are comic book artists from the 1940's.

That time I was in a restaurant and there was this loud rude ahole a couple tables down from me. When I left I stopped behind him as he was seated at his table, turned away, let a SBD rip and walked away nonchalantly. I heard his gag before I reached the door. Man, I loved that...

Cross dressing
I think I should start doing that again: I actually like myself when I'm all dressed up: when I'm not, not so much.
That chaotic swirl of sounds an orchestra makes as musicians tune their instruments before a concert.
Old movies.
Riding a train cross country.
Small diners.
Fruit fresh off the tree.

I LOVE a good painting.
I LOVE biographies. Just started DAVID McCULLOUGH's John Adams. It's only about 1000 pages. :lookingup:
I LOVE a great short novel like The Great Gatsby (I don't like any of the movies made of it). I LOVE Slaughterhouse Five a "Science Fiction" story. If you like fantasy and faith interests you, read LARRY NIVEN and JERRY POURNELLE's Inferno. I LOVE Inferno. All three short and unforgettable.
I LOVE cheap red wine that's good. :thumbup: :drink:
Oh, and the Porterhouse T-bone steak at Texas Road House that I had for my anniversary dinner.
My wife said she wished I looked at her the way I looked at that thing when it came out of the kitchen . . . :bouncegiggle:

I'll like it better if it snows- but it's nice in Michigan-in the 40's.
Which is really weird for Michigan. :question:

No, I don't think they would be.
Closest I ever came to one was in 2006, my college roommate and I met up five years after graduation and were on a cruise together and for a third-grade schoolmarm from New England she was letting go on that ship, drinking, picking up men, getting high, just....wow, she hadn't acted like that back in the day, and out of character for me I'd let her talk me into partaking of "some" substance that was making me feel not too well, and so I limped back from the club we'd been in and when I collapsed into bed I vowed no matter what I was NOT leaving our cabin for any reason that night, not like the night before when she'd sexiled me til about three AM.
When she brought some man back a little while later and proceeded to absolutely go unabashedly around the world with him in her bed a mere few feet away, her bare legs sticking up in my peripheral vision and my ears filling with all these noises, I stubbornly laid there half-sick, my presence apparently not deterring their inebriated carrying-on whatsoever.
After their first round, which concluded in a truly strange sound, like hissing, I heard the guy say to my roommate, "Think we can talk her into joining us?"
I raised up off the pillow, his naked ass literally like six feet away from me where he was still on top of my roommate, and said, "I would SO hurl on you if you tried."
Then I flipped over and put a pillow over my head thinking, "Well, this is the most awkward moment of my entire life."
It wasn't but at that second it felt like it.
Then he came over to my bed and starting trying to kiss on me, and I kick-shoved him off and he went back over to the other bed and they carried on again.
To this day we Do Not Speak Of That Cruise.
Don'tcha just love that totally relaxed feeling you get after taking a really huge dump? Yeah, I do too.

But selling 25 books three days before Christmas - that's AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! :smile: :teddyr: :teddyr: :teddyr: :teddyr:

Being a horrible criminal and a threat to all western civilization. Seriously, I love the move "scrooge" the musical with Albert finney and Alec guiness but most of the plebes hate it so it doesn't get shown in tv much.
Well, screw the peasants and their plebeian tastes! I decided not to let them limit my viewing choices this holiday season! I just watched it on the net for free with no interruptions asides from the ones I chose! I was a dastardly criminal defying copyright law, the DCMA and assaulting the very roots of capitalism by getting something free, and I loved every blessed nanosecond of it!

A bit late to the game but this strikes me as odd. You claim to love this movie, but not enough to own it on DVD ($6) or Blu-ray ($9)? Do you even collect movies you like or love? It's also available on Amazon Prime for $2. Maybe show a little support for a beloved movie by buying or renting it. Just saying :teddyr:
I love playing with baby goats. They are so CUTE!!!
