So, mere hours, before our sadistic natures motivates us in dragging a poor woodland creature out into the cold morning. Snapping pictures with blinding lights into his face still trying to rub the sleep from his eyes. Triggering his transformation, into a superpowered spirit of vengeance hellbent on destroying his tormentors, sending the world, nay, the universe into oblivion. Get'em Phil

The third season finale was shown last night. It was great. I highly recommend it. Regarding what happened, I did not see that coming, and that's rare these days.

Three good actresses trapped in a plot so contrived and convoluted it could pass for an X-Men movie. It suffers from the same time travel cheating that doomed Enterprise instead of telling an organic story about what would have happened in the new time line 20 years after Oliver Queen's death. Why is Dinah Drake in 2040? How does Laurel Lance know what's going to happen in 2041? Why is Mia Queen dating an alternate reality version of a psychopath? Are we going to stick around to find out? Do we care? No.

This HURTS. I know it's a running joke here that I'm a Rush obssessive, but I credit Peart's lyrics a LOT in saving my life when I was younger.

Right now I’m listening to Buckaroo Banzai as I surf the net and I got to thinking that the ‘80’s might have been Hollywood’s last gasp at creating true heroes until the recent surge of Superhero movies. Well, neurons started misfiring and I started to imagine an American “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen”. So far I’ve got Buckaroo leading Remo Williams, Meteor Man, Buffy (the original) vampire slayer and an American (Highlander style) immortal. The only criteria’s would be original movie characters from the ‘80’s (So no Batman or Greatest American Hero) and no dark or “anti” heroes. (So no Professional or Hackers) Anybody have any candidates?

A post by Cygnia got me thinking of those songs that , whatever the musician may or may not have meant them to be, came like a life line.... I imagine some have quite a few, and others only a few. Whether you're just going through hell, angry and helpless, or wondering where the hope went- the right music can be powerful and personal. No need to say why, but this thread is to list which songs that helped you hold out or even gave you a metaphysical hand up. One for me.... I'm told it's used for Parks and Recreations... but that's not how I came to know this one. It instead came to me at a time when it looked like I was helpless to he…

As we cast 2019 onto the dungheap of history, let me take a moment to wish everyone a Happy New Year. I hope this New Year brings you peace, joy, and prosperity. I hope the mountains you will have to climb in the coming year lead you to vistas that make your heart race with the thrill of achievement and fill your soul with a sense of wonder. I hope the New Year brings our world a greater sense of community and hope for the future. I hope we can all meet here again in 366 days and talk about how much better 2020 was than 2019. Happy New Year, my friends.

Ah yes, February, the month of love. Or so the florist industry would have you believe. But often the path of true love is a difficult one. Fraught with many pitfalls, roadblocks, and heartache. Particularly if you're a superhero. From lovers who turn out to be villains, to being dismembered and stuffed into a refrigerator, to editorial interference often your stalwart, upright supers just can't seem to catch a break romantically. And doubly so if your name is Parker! That's the theme of our draft this month. True love and the rocky road to get there. Your first choice will be a heroic Protagonist, this is the guy/girl whose love l…
