  1. I figured a Waffle House beer would taste more like maple syrup, myself.
  2. I will admit to being a bit surprised that The Brady Bunch was considered that popular, out of all the shows set in California. And while I have nothing against Hawaii Five-0, I thought Magnum, P.I. would have beaten it out.
  3. If Bonanza can make that list, Gunsmoke should have also.
  4. And that is why I will not put up with jokes about the "Cowardly French." Rest You Well, Mon Frere. Vive La France.
  5. You are technically correct--the very best kind of correct, according to Hermes Conrad.
  6. Howzabout Doctor Nexus? There were a lot of Doctor types in the Golden Age--Doctor Occult, Doctor Fate, Doc Savage--so sticking the title Doctor on his name could just be the Golden Age touch the character need.
  7. By all rights, this should be filled with candy.
  8. I'd be more interested in the Fantasy Island shop. But that's just me. Anyway--The Biden Bump
  9. Not bad, Tjack. Here are my suggestions-- Olympia and Amazonia are partners in the fanfic. Their names are--Thunder Woman and Lightning Speed, Guardians Of The Greater Good! Enigma 7 becomes--Nemesis, Enemy Of Evil! Scarborough Faire becomes--Magik-Maker, Mistress Of The Arcane! The Blonde Fury becomes--Maxi-Maiden, Towering Power For Justice! Briar Rose becomes--Silver Stinger, Precision Instrument Against Crime! Hope that helps.
  10. I believe that was me. The point I was trying to make was that if all that mattered were the popular vote, this election would have been decided days ago. And as I said then--perhaps now we can agree that in an age where the speed of communication is no longer limited to the speed of transit, that the Electoral College has outlived its usefulness, and we should find a way to transition to a system where the President is elected by direct popular vote, either by Constitutional amendment or the Popular Vote Compact?
  11. Who would have thought Homelander would be an actual hero?
  12. I'd be scared too, if I were condemned to the Death Of A Thousand Screams.
  13. Surely you're old enough to remember the 2000 election, George W. Bush vs. Al Gore, and how it came down to one state--Florida--and the whole examination of the punch-card ballots to determined if the vote was all correct.
  14. I've been looking for a site that would tell me the popular vote count after votes were counted on November 3rd, but the above post says the same thing I wanted to point out--that if all that mattered were the popular vote, this election would have been decided days ago. So now, perhaps, we can agree that in an age where the speed of communication is no longer limited to the speed of transit, that the Electoral College has outlived its usefulness, and we should find a way to transition to a system where the President is elected by direct popular vote, either by Constitutional amendment or the Popular Vote Compact?
  15. I've suggested before that a marksman-type could use a slingshot, the weapon of mischievous little boys everywhere. Give him various less-than-lethal loads--pepper balls, hard rubber balls, paint for marking a target, flashbangs, etc.--and you're all set. There's even the perfect name for such a character--The Menace.
  16. I figure we could all use a good laugh, and this is the best I've seen all Election Day.
  17. I suppose if they're going for the whole "space western" motif, they may as well set their adventures on the most western-like planet in the Star Wars universe. And I'm wondering how much time Mando himself spent there, as he's the only one who can speak and sign the Tusken language--something none of the human occupants on Tatooine seem inclined to do. Nifty number of callbacks, and not just to the movies. The Child was thoroughly adorable, as usual. I thought he might help out in a couple of places, but he didn't. I do find it kind of ironic that he's so popular, given the backlash over the Ewoks when Return Of The Jedi came out. ("They're too cute! It's too disgusting for words! George Lucas has ruined Star Wars!") Now we have this creature that's cuter than the Ewoks and the Porgs put together, and everyone can't get enough of it. Some people owe Lucas an apology, I think. Looking forward to the next episode.
