Stray Bullets, Young Liars

Thu, 08 May 2008 14:12:30 -0500

This is about comic books. I'm not really into Stray Bullets or anything (I mostly know it because I'm a fan of a band of the same name) but I just came across this in comic news...

"Anyone who tries out Young Liars and sends it to me with a SASE will have the comic returned signed (personalized or not) along with a headshot sketch of any character you choose. Could be a Young Liars character, Stray Bullets character, Your favorite Valiant character, etc.

If anyone's willing to risk sending me a Valiant comic I can sign those, too, but other than promising not to rip, fold, or crumple your comic personally and packing it back in your mailer, I can't take any other responsibility for what the good folks at the PO might do to it. So be careful.

Spread the word on this. I'll do this for anyone who tries out YL."

Send all comics to:

David Lapham
P.O. Box 3911
Glendale, CA 91221-0911 "

What is Free Comic Book Day?

Free Comic Book Day is a single day when participating comic book shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone who comes into their stores.

Today is the next

More info here... I guess there are something like 40 specific comics that are given away. So check out your local comic book store tomorrow for freeeeee comic books! And apparently they're giving away some Star Wars and Iron Man figures too.

Hey Maltz/someone else in Boston

Would you by any chance be around or want to go to to the Sox/Rays game tonight (with me)? I'm stuck with tickets at the last minute and running out of real life people who might want to go...

This is offensive to my interests

NHL Star Called Up To Big Leagues To Play For NFL Team

Davids for cheap

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 15:15:15 -0500

No, sorry, that's DVDs, not Davids.

Some good dvds at Borders for $6 the next few days.

Shaun of the Dead, Animal House, The Jerk, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Warriors, Roman Holiday, Sabrina, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Clueless, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Airplane, Young Frankenstein, Fargo, Raging Bull, Edward Scissorhands, and some others that aren't quite as exciting.

I'm not a big fan of Borders but I'll probably pick up a few.

Kids in the Hall

I seen 'em! I just did! Just a few hours ago... It was incredible. I'm so happy... If you ever get the chance to see them, do it.

Also, I love this sketch...

seeing her in Boston on Monday... I've got a couple extra tickets if anyone in the area is interested...

I'd post some sweet videos from when I saw her a while back in NYC but they're on my friend's camera. Anyway, she's good live.

You may have all seen this already, but it cracks me up every time.

57

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 18:19:57 -0500

I finally updated the list of shirts I own in my profile and the grand total of t-shirts comes out to 57... which is, coincidentally, my lucky number. My birthday is 5/7, my dad was born in '57 and Heinz ketchup is the best, so there you go.

What's your lucky number/why?

[Also, thanks to whoever was so kind as to give me STPs yesterday afternoon!]
