Well, after reading all of the reviews on the new gamma world that I care to (here, here and here, basically), it looks like I’d prefer to use the version of “Omega World“. It appears that the new version of GW at best is mediocre, and at worst, is a both an editorial and content bomb. I have to remember to ask the Gray Pumpkin his feelings on the book. (He was the person that even told me it had been published.)

Speaking of gamer-talk, it’s nice to see gaming / comics nerds in the mainstream.

Folks are already reviewing the third movie in the LOTR series.. contrary to The Matrix (or any set of movies I can think of….) The general consensus is that Return of the King is better than the second movie, which was better than the first. Outstanding!

Q: What is the difference between Michael Jackson and a grocery bag?
A: One is made of plastic and is unsafe for children to play with. The other is used to carry groceries.

I’ve been reading about all of the yummy Eid food folks had recently, and it’s making me hungry! Hummus, baba ghanoush, couscous and so much more. I bet a feat day after all that Ramadan fasting makes things even more appreciated.

Thinking about my sweetheart right now and just kicking back with the tube. Hard to believe that it’s Friday already… this week flew by. I’m looking forward to this weekend.
