“I thought she would be grateful for the free advertising...and then pay for it”

I lived in the DFW area when the first In N Out opened in Dallas. It caused a miles-long backup on the interstate. I remember the news interviewing some transplant woman weeping with joy that there was finally an In N Out nearby. If I live to be 100, I will never love anything as much as that woman loved her animal…

In that avalanche of Marvel animated, I’m sorely disappointed by the lack of Spectacular Spider-Man. Does Sony still own that one?

Now I want to see a test of store brand Honey Nut Cheerios, because in my experience they’re uniformly awful. None of them seem to get the texture right.

I have no idea how widespread these are outside the St. Louis area, but I love these things.

Person of Interest. That they managed to tie up everything and pack in everything necessary for a satisfactory conclusion in that truncated final season is a wonder.

So it’s Zima for a new generation, but can it cure cancer?

Made it to the Varsity on a past trip to Atlanta and was not impressed. Though I had just come from trying Beverly at the World of Coke, so it’s possible my palate was compromised.

So is Spider-UK a Spider-Man or a Captain Britain?

the robotic homunculi that contemporary animators could summon didn’t seem ready for prime time, but that didn’t stop studios from going ahead with everything from CGI TV shows to the full-length Pixar movie, Toy Story.

I recently read the very interesting “Into the Silence” by Wade Davis, an account of the earliest British Everest expeditions, in the context of the aftermath of World War I.

£5 for the beer, which prompted him to challenge the searing inequality of paying an extra Euro as a man.
