Does that mean we can look forward to Brian Benben and Robert Wuhl making appearances soon?

They're telling you to beat it - you may not get on a certain amusement park ride because it's got a dent in it.

It took him a few years to get over Jen.

Is that what Hawaiians call Whack-A-Mole?

(I read about them in Time magazine)

T for Terminator,
U for Undertaker,
N Annihilator,
E for Educator,
S for Sadistic,
Now what you think of it?

Not to mention the fact that we were supposed to be living on the Moon and Mars by 1996…

I do have a soft spot for the Ring of the Nibelung / Return of the Celestials storyline from a few years before Simonson's run.  Fun little take on Norse/German mythology, liberally sprinkled with Wagner, and then, bam!  the giant Space Gods show up.

How about a mention of Nora Roberts / J.D. Robb / whatever the hell pseudonym she's using next?  209 books and counting…  On the back jacket of her books they stick a photo that seems to say, "Yeah, we both know I didn't write it, who the hell cares, just give me the damn $27.95."

I know.  At the end of Foundation And Earth, we were only about halfway to the birth of the second Empire.  Still bummed that we never got there.  Did those Foundation books by Gregory Benford, David Brin, et al ever fill in the gap?
