@1Grand_Marquis: Wiz Zumwalt? There's a series by Rick Cook that explicitly deals with just that... a programmer gets summoned from our world to a fantasy world, then creates a new branch of magic using a programming language he writes.
@bluehinter: Unfortunately, I never was able to get into his Cornelius series. I have his entire collection of Elric / Hawkmoon / etc.. Eternal Champion novels, though.
So, where does the grey Hulk fit into all of this mess?
Out of the 2000+ books that I've read and stashed away, there has only been *one* that I was never able to finish, and in fact gave up on after page 20ish or so. 'Alien Taste' by Wen Spencer. I love his Tinker series, but this series didn't make it past the opening chapters.
@redqueenmeg: There's always one random page that refuses to load for me, too. Grr. #supervillains
@dantsea: I miss the Holiday Spice pepsi. :(
@ReaveT: Nope, the Wizard has access to several Bigsby spells in 4e. :P
I horde tons of paperback books... because if I had to pay Hardcover prices, I'd have maybe a third of my current library.
@NerD: R.O.A.C.H.: I've absolutely forgotten what happens in the book, though. I saw the trailer the other day, and I'm still confused.
@WMyers: Exactly my point of view. I need more shelves!
@squinko: However, Coke tastes much better in a metal container. ... Of course, I prefer not to think too hard on the 'why' of that.
@Segador: There's a Half-Price Books in Columbus, OH that I get to once a year... and usually have to ship my purchases back since they won't fit in my baggage.
Lets see.. I've got 'Gay Deceiver' as my main machine, from Number of the Beast. 'Black ICE' is my laptop, and Wintermute is chugging along downstairs.
@Overheal: That has been my windows startup theme since the early Mechwarrior PC titles.
The threads are sorted with the newest ones first, but then the comments inside the threads are ordered with the oldest comment on top. I want to start at the beginning (oldest) of these discussions, and then only have one direction to move. IE - Read the site top down like I always have been able to. You're killing my scroll wheel here. :P
@crashedpc : ゴキブリ and 蟑螂 division: I'm actually quite a fan of Tim Lebbon's 'Dawn' and 'Dusk'. His 'Fallen' in the same setting was pretty darn good, too.
@WearingBlue4BillyMays_GitEmSteveDave:

I has the shipping crate that turned into some sort of flying gadget. It was paired with an SUV you could shoot the tires off with an infrared beam from the crate. >.>

@Dystopia XIII: R.O.A.C.H.: I was going to say it sounded like the 'California Voodoo Game', but you're right. Less spying, more sabotage in Barsoon.
