My dad had just been transferred to Germany and we were staying with my uncle for a couple of months while my dad found us a place. I was lucky enough to get to watch a shuttle launch live in person through a friend of my uncle. I was supposed to give a report in school about it since there was going to be a teacher…

I know! It was originally supposed to be out in the beginning of April, now it is not out until the end of July! All I know, is the delay better be worth it Mr. Butcher. :-)

Nope, it is not out until July now. That makes it a summer book

Looks like I need to hit up Target, Shopko, K-Mart, and WalMart to see if I can snag myself one. Thanks

It was pretty clear that only Danny and Erica remained, and that Erica survived to the end of the war

Like others, I picked this up after it was mentioned here on io9. I enjoyed it enough that I also read Kill The Dead, and will get the next one as soon as I can find a release date. My biggest complaint with the books is also what I like about them.

Build big or go home. Wait! Where are you going, and why are you taking your ball with you?

Working in a music store, not only did I know who Arcade Fire was, I have also heard all their albums. The Suburbs really is a terrific album, but even I was surprised when it was announced that they won album of the year. It is weird that before the Grammys, we sold a few copies of the album, and none since. Kind…

It's kind of an obscure number. You've probably never heard of it.

How many Hipsters does it take to change a light bulb?

Wreck-Gar!!!!!! I loved the Junkions. I always wanted to have a Junkion action figure, but held back, 'cause they always looked like azz. All I want is a decent looking figure, that when transformed into 'bot mode can actually ride another figure in vehicle mode, just like in the dang movie! I am willing to spend…

Was always a fan of this one myself.

I thought it was common knowledge that Chewie was inspired by Lucas's dog, Indiana. This seems more like a nice nod to the character origins to me.

I grew up listing to Dr. Demento all the time. Between the weird films and music my parents allowed me to indulge in, it is a wonder I am a 'well balanced, productive citizen'.

Well, there goes the resell / collector value. How am I supposed to read them now? What with someone's 'sex' all over the pages...

Looks like Thomas Dolby was wrong... pretty damn cool though.

Anyone know what the second item (phone?) is supposed to be?

Damn... now I really do want carrot cake!

I'd like her to bake me a carrot cake... if you know what I mean...

Seconded. Love the Beast is a terrific 'documentary'. Watching the 'Hulk'/'Nero' break down after that rally was gut wrenching.
