Sunday : 28 August 05
Today was a good day. I didn’t go for a ride. Instead, I opted to sleep in. And it was good. Very good. The highlights of the day included, but are not limited to:

  • Sleeping in.
  • Coffee with and Perry.
  • Dinner with , Perry and Max.
  • Watching the “better than the theatrical release” director’s edition of Daredevil.
    (Broken Frontier just reviewed it, in fact.)

  • Fixing something that I neglected to take care of on ‘s computer.
    *sigh* I’m usually not that forgetful.

  • Saving the world (or at least, Paragon City).

The High-Flying Adventures of Indigo Bolt     
I wonder what it’s like to be a superhero…
I wonder what I’d do if I could fly around downtown…

Oh, wait…
I don’t have to wonder.
I am a superhero and I can do that.

Tonight was “run around and beat on things” night. I ran into another player who was working on the same mission that I was, so we teamed up. A short while later, , in the guise of Akrael, joined us. And many beatdowns were handed out. Despite dying twice – which is still a royal pain in the ass – I made it about 35% of the way to Security Level 15. And that ain’t bad at all.

And have I mentioned: With your subscription to City of Heroes you also get a subscription to the City of Heroes comic book, by Top Cow/Image. I think that’s pretty slick.

Stray Toasters

  • I don’t typically eat Alfredo sauce on spaghetti; I’m traditionally a tomato-based sauce kind of guy. But for dinner, I had both a meat sauce and Alfredo over my pasta. Nox might be on to something after all…
  • Cats are funny. They aren’t… say… as funny as monkeys, maybe, but they are funny.
  • By way of Slashdot: Coffee has numerous health benefits
    (I assume that they mean other than stabilizing me and keeping me from hurting people. WHAT?!? Oh, come on. That really is a health benefit. It IS!)

  • : You can berate me for this later, but I picked up the new issue of Teen Titans. The one that Liefeld drew. He doesn’t seem to add 63 ribs to peoples’ chests anymore, but there’s still something about his art that isn’t… “right.”
  • Have you come here for forgiveness?
    Have you come to raise the dead?
    Have you come here to play Jesus
    To the lepers in your head?

  • Shoreh Aghdashloo, last seen as Dina Araz on last season’s 24, will be in X-Men 3 as Cecilia Reyes. Interesting…
  • I am going to start keeping a list of “Rob’s Pet Peeves.”
  • : I just polished off a box of Screaming Yellow Zonkers.

That’s it for now. There would possibly be more, but I don’t recall what was in the version of this post that my computer ate.

Namaste.
