Songs for Troubled Times
Jan. 4th, 2009 08:57 pmNFL playoffs started this weekend. The Ravens played a good game against Miami, and the Arizona-Atlanta game was a lot better than I expected it to be. The Chargers really should send a thank-you card to the officials who handed them their win over Indianapolis, and loathe as I am to say it, the Eagles looked great against the Vikings this evening.
Spent Saturday with Mom&Dad and The Niece. She and I spent a good couple of hours giggling like loons over things going terribly wrong on Destroyed in Seconds.
As I'm writing this, Israel has launched an invasion of the Gaza Strip following a few days of airstrikes. According to every news source I've checked, the IDF has managed to complete cut off Gaza City from the rest of the territory.
The Gog storyline in JSA finally wrapped up. I liked it, but damned if this thing didn't take about forever. The last few pages made me giddy - a few panels from the life of Earth-22's Superman, ending with a lovely page of him watching the Legion of Super-Heroes flying overhead. The new War Machine series got off to, for me, a wobbly start - a bit too much of the old ultraviolence for my liking, but I'm going to give this a few more issues; heck, I stuck with Sean McKeever on Teen Titans for several issues. Didn't find a copy of LSH, though. Have two more shops to check tomorrow after work.
