That's right folks, we're revving up our engines of humor and listenin' to that howlin' roar of laughter. We've got metal under tension that's just beggin' us to touch and go.

...

Wait. No. Is that seriously the lyric? "Metal under tension?" Really? Man. This is kind of a shitty song.

Anyway, as we've been doing lately, we're going to highlight our favorite topic page of the week. This week, read about Marvel Comics from the people who know. (Us.) Put together by DCD, the Marvel page has, without a doubt, more information about Marvel Comics than you can reasonably tolerate.


This week Gladstone is back, and offering advice that you desperately need in order to live. Meanwhile, Swaim threatens a child's life and gives Valentine's advice for the miser at heart. Bucholz writes about pot and sports stars, while Daniel O'Brien brings us closer to Christian Bale than we've ever been before.

Notable Comment: Spock Lemoche says, "Great Article. But get your fact rights. The temperature of the fun is 5778 Kelvin (9940 Fahrenheit). So 2500 Fahrenheit is a bit more than 1/4 the temperature of the sun. " You are correct, Spock, but we're still going to make fun of you for your little spelling error. Surface of the fun? HA HA HA HA.

Notable Comment: Poster weirdly takes umbrage at our description of his hero, "Hiroo Onoda shouldn't be considered crazy, he actually performed his sworn military duties with honor and complete commitment. When he did return to Japan he was given a hero's welcome." That's all well and good, but the man hid in the jungle for thirty years fighting a war his side had already lost. If he wasn't crazy before, he's crazy now.

A lot of the blog links are wrong. But I don't care, because I've read them all already. Also, I'm just so happy to get the round-up back. You didn't have one last week, and I cried so hard my knees came out of my eye sockets.
