"But there are all sorts of stories that revolve around people forced into horrific training to do the unthinkable." Jeez - no shit: check of Don Winslow's THE CARTEL to find out what happens to some people during The Bus Ride That Stopped Off In Hell - Winslow can be light and airy at times but he is hands-down a

pffft! that is kind of an obviously faked webpage, dude or dudette - i mean, c'mon: there's no way a picture like that would have only 333 hearts.

in some of his action movies, dude looks like his biceps are bigger around than his neck.

now that frank miller has gone off the rails, it feels weird to state that one of my all-time favorite Captain America storylines is his role in DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN, not just for his weary, touching old man monologues but for his steadfast insistence that America is supposed to stand for what is right, not whatever

Halle Berry did it before either by playing Storm and Catwoman.

i'm from Wisconsin and cracker-thin crust is my favorite type. if you're ever up in Two Rivers, Port Sandy Bay is worth a stop.

i don't like the politics of the people who make money off Domino's so i only buy their pizza when they have the Walk-in Wednesday deal of $4 for a medium one-topping, on the assumption they're either losing money on the promotion (probably not) or that at least i'm not letting them gouge me as much as all the other

at first i thought you meant the bit about breaking into the ATM machine and wondered if i was gonna get a knock on my door accusing me of being an accessory… then i realized you were talking about the stuff with the leaves. (whew, i guess.)

to be fair to Voyager, some of their highs were pretty decent - the moral question underpinning TUVIX is still worth arguing about and the range of cultures they interacted with was pretty great at times: the Hirogen and Species 8472 were both interesting/scary as hell and while it was easy to get tired of The Doctor,

Improbably Cause wasn't as perfect an overall episode as those cited above but i'll always love it for the Boy Who Cried Wolf exchange between Bashir and Garak - i just loved the fact each character realizes they honestly can't understand the other on this manner and the reactions of both are various levels of pity

hate to pull down my pants and display my nerd like this but… there are already an extensive series of novels released as Season 8 of DS9. i haven't read all of them (and didn't enjoy or even finish all the ones i did pick up) but the first couple and then the subseqent entries by S.D. Perry were pretty great. Kira

while i absolutely agree with people who find fault in the early DS9 seasons (mostly on account of the still embryonic personalities and interplay but also just because, y'know, they wrote some real clunkers) i have to say that i really wish Avery Brooks had continued to portray Sisko as emotionally volatile as he did

pfft - The Visitor is one of the finest episodes of television, let alone the subset of Star Trek stories. (the pfft sounds more dismissive than i meant this to come off but it's actually the sound i made so i'm just going to apologize and cop to being a bad person.)

awww, cmon - giving worf a chance to stand in the outfield wearing a ridiculously oversized baseball hat while yelling "HUNT HIM DOWN AND KILL HIM!" and still have it work as totally legitimate advice within the scene was pretty great.

the NewsRadio write-ups (and the associated comments) were uniformly excellent.

i just assumed WOates was drunk/stoned and crackin' wise - it made me laugh.

dude, c'mon - the revolving circles and banishment to the Phantom Zone were right there.

wow - that's a nice price compared to some of the gouging i've seen.

i missed this when it first got posted but awesome start off to talking about one of my favorite books/creators. have you posted the follow-up you mentioned somewhere? if so, please let me know where to find it - i'm a big CONCRETE fan and would love to get the take of another fan. on balance, i'd have to say i love

that brubaker/refin stuff sounds incredible - be cool if they worked in an adaptation of the second Driver book.
