Buffy Season 8



Wow! Two posts in one evening! I also wanted to share that the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 comics are starting to come out. See the cover art at the left for issue 3. Pretty sweet. Anyway, I've read the first three and I just wanted to say they are exceptional. Great dialog and the art is top notch. For anyone who is a Buffy fan, I highly recommend getting these before they sell out. Issue 1 is already on it's third printing, and issue 2 is on its second. You can order them online here. I did and I was very impressed with the speed and how they were shipped.

Thirsty Thursday


Today was Thirsty Thursday at the Nashville Sounds game. What does that mean? It means $1 beers. Lots of folks come out for this. Well, the stands were about 1/3 full, which is pretty good for the Sounds. The Sounds have great promotions... like Beef night. They also have this mascot that is a big yellow cat of some sort (see picture). His name is Ozzie. He is fairly scary looking, with fangs and a big red nose, like he has a cold or something. They have this tradition that in the middle of the innings, the mascot does something. One of the things he does is find a little kid from the audience, about 3-5 years old and then race him around the bases. If I was that kid I'd be completely scared out of my wits that a 6 foot bipedal sabre-toothed tiger was chasing me.

Riley

I know I haven't posted in a while, and I wish it was about good news.. but today my mom's dog, Riley was put to sleep. He had an inoperable tumor in his stomach. It's sad.
