► Fifteen/sixteen years without soda and I'm now drinking
A&W Root Beer again. Oh, how I missed it. That said, if the old headaches I had in in my teens return, I'm giving it up for good.
► On Tuesday
Warner Bros released the latest in the
DC Comics direct-to-DVD animated movies,
All-Star Superman. I've been looking forward to getting it since it was announced last year, but my Walmart is notorious for under stocking anything that isn't the latest blockbuster movie release. That's why I still haven't gotten the last couple of these animated DVDs.
It's been 3 weeks since I last went to Walmart, and since I probably won't go any sooner than next week, I decided to order the DVD from Amazon.ca. That the 2-disc release would be around $24 and Amazon had it for $17 helped. So on Wednesday I order
All-Star Superman, along with
The Art of Red Sonja and
Playboy: Redheads. Those 2 books have been sitting in my cart for a few months, and I've nearly ordered them at least 3 times.
UPS seems to be getting a lot faster. The order didn't ship until last night and I received it today. They ship just outside of Toronto and that's only 5 hours away. It used to take 2 business days for me to receive my packages once they shipped, but since I've but since last year they now take only one business day. I like that.
Incidentally, it amuses me that with
Christina Hendricks voicing
Lois Lane in All-Star Superman, my order this week has a nice little theme.

Charlie Sheen Sends Open Letter Responding to 'Two and a Half Men' Suspension -
Sheen doesn't sound irrational or delusional at all. Narcissistic?"I fire back once and this contaminated little maggot can't handle my power and can't handle the truth.
"I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly, I have defeated this earthworm with my words; imagine what I would have done with my fire-breathing fists."
"I have a disease? Bulls***. I cured it ... with my mind."
Nah... Perfectly reasonable.

chainsawsuit.com: Safeword the BDSM Superhero - I was going to say I hoped
Mark Millar never found out about this, but he's probably mined this territory enough already.

Tom Spina Designs: Custom Themed Furniture - Several great pieces, but hands down the best has to be the
Han in Carbonite desk. Seriously, that's just awesome.

Drawsgood: Vintage DC Superhero Posters - Love the simplistic graphic designed poster art. They remind me a lot of
Darwyn Cooke's
DC: The New Frontier artwork.

Quote of the Moment
Sister Maria: Lord, if I worshiped you because I feared Hell, then let me burn in Hell. If I loved you only in promise of Heaven, then exclude me from it. But if I loved you for yourself, then I am your daughter. Your daughter, Lord. Don't deny me your wonders.
