Props for mentioning all of these, especially Animaniacs and Fat Albert! I mean, come on, best line in a theme song ever: "We're the Animaniacs / We have pay-for-play contracts!"

Well, this is exciting news, I must say!

Well, The Director's Cut wasn't exactly a platinum album! But you're welcome—I think the whole album is great, and Mike Patton is a human theremin!

I have a suggestion for another poll: best cover version of an SF/Fantasy theme song. Only you'd have to include movies, so I can vote for Fantomas' "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" - gives me chills every time I hear it!

The chorus to "Turn Around" would work, too.

"Greetings, Starfighter!" Death Blossom ruled!

I feel your pain—no, I mean literally, it sucks that after a couple million years we still haven't adapted fully to walking upright! In my case, I kind of split the difference, because the knees are not quite as flexible now, either!

Well, you win this round, kalaeth—my laptop has a touch pad and I have to turn half its functionality off 'cause I can't use it correctly with my fingers!

The best I ever did was pick up a half-full coffee cup (not without spillage, but I managed it). Yeah, it's more along the lines of "party trick" than anything useful, but dropped change and fountain pens are no problem.

Well, I'm no Hank McCoy, and it isn't as easy in my fifties as it was when I was younger; but, yeah, I suspect it's a matter of practice (my siblings and I used to do it all the time as kids). The gap also makes my feet relatively wide, and I've always been more comfortable barefoot. In fact, the first thing I do when…

This is more of a biological atavism than a vestigial trait, but I have prehensile toes—my big toes are separated from the rest by a bit over a 1/4-inch gap, and the next and middle toes are relatively long and flexible. In my family we call it "monkey feet" and it's fairly common—in fact, when I was a kid I thought…

Jerry Siegel wrote this one. Yes, the Jerry Siegel who created Superman. And he wrote a lot of stuff like this.

I actually had this story! (Not the original comic, but it was reprinted in an 80-Pg. Giant, possibly the one that had Jimmy on the cover as Giant Turtle Boy.) Between stuff like this and Rainbow Batman, it's a miracle I got out of my wonder years sane!

I had the issue of "Lois Lane" that had Lois falling in love with Satan! (Actually an alien masquerading as Satan masquerading as a foreign dignitary. His name was "Satdev"—his real name, mind you.)

You know, some headlines are just so perfect that reading the actual article would be a letdown.

Agree on both points! The opening was one of the few things I've ever seen on television that actually gave me chills.

Since all the obvious "black" jokes have been done already, I'll just say that when I saw the title of the article, I immediately thought of "Bordered in Black" by Larry Niven. Not likely on a gas giant, I'll grant, but...

Oh, that's right, thanks! I'll have to remember her when they do the YA list!

Umm, re: Good Omens - are you saying you were disappointed Armageddon didn't happen? Deus Ex Machina was kinda the whole point, wasn't it?

Damn. I completely overlooked Jones when I sent in my original suggestions! Now I feel bad...
