    I, for one, am offended by what you're implying about the Watchmen movie.

    Moff, if I were you, regarding how you got this gig, I WOULD NOT complain about commenters.

    Perhaps he is not going to space, but rather, CYBERspace? Eh? Ehhh? eh.

    Damn this economy. Hopefully he has some kind of COBRA Continuation Health Coverage to get him over the hump.

    I guess Wayne Coyne was right: It's just too heavy for Superman to lift.


    (The local Sunday paper, that is. Ah, I kill me.)

    @RAHfanboy for one, welcomes his Marxist overlords.: Striped perfection? Mossy, diagonal, zesty, collapsible?? There are so many types of perfection.

    Lois Lane could always replace Monica Crowley on the McLaughlin Group. Eleanor Clift would still walk all over her.

    Moff, could you stop writing on the weekends? Maybe a day when work is slow and I'm bored, like a Tuesday or Thursday, Wednesday, or Monday? (But not Friday, because I'm busy drinking.)


    I don't like having to log on on a Sunday to see what you wrote.

    based on his inner monologue about the nature of his tears, clark kent could publish a collection of poems and then go on a book tour where he could likely cover several cities in one day.

    Moff deserves a raise. He always makes me laugh. I'd suggest doubling his pay, but if he's an intern, that won't go very far.
