ITEM! a very happy february ( or katie bumpo arrival month as we call it round here ) to everyone - when we first went to see jenni's doctor she said very excitedly "yr baby might come on valentine's day!" which stuck in my mind - katie's actually "due" on 11th but could come any time now - we're playing the waiting game ( & as homer simpson sez: " ( Read more... )

Valentine would make a good middle name, actually.

"Want to buy some pegs, Dave?" Patchy does chase pegs, but only when it's too warm to build a snowcat. It's a cool-looking robot.

I'll have to look at this "Wolverine and the X-men" on iPlayer, I remember the comic with Hulk and Wendigo. Cyclops must be angry that they've named it after Wolverine, but I expect his harem of telepaths keep him under control.

- hi - thanks for gommenting...!

the name valentine makes me think of this fella
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentine_Dyall

- the man in black from appointment with fear etc - not sure i cld inflict that on a baby tho - we'll see

yeah, - just cos wolverine's got a new movie coming out - s'not fair - if it was up to me it'd be "cyclops & the xmen" ( & "hawkeye & his mighty avengers" for that matter ) - emma frost is in it but jean grey is not - cyke does get the gompensation of a sensible mask which covers his head properly ( & an overcoat! )

Ah yes, the bloke with a bird on his head. I'd balk at giving a child an eccentric first name, imagine what they'd get at school, but they could keep an eccentric middle name as their secret.

If Scott's now sporting a badass trenchcoat, does it follow that he now gets to be the crazy wild man while Logan has to fill out forms as the responsible leader? My lj friend who loves Jean Grey will be disappointed that she's been supplanted yet again, but I do quite like Emma, especially as a teacher, cos of Generation X.

presumably wolvie = in charge of their SATs etc now but "if you want advanced self-pity, that's professor summers' class across the hall"

in this cartoon cyclops might be sposed to be an "emo" - or goth as we used to call 'em ( - the former always makes me thing of "rod hull & emo" )

( i think jean might be "dead" in the gomics at the moment - or at least she was the last time i looked )
