And now for something completely different.
 
Hockey Chicken on webcam.

Steven G. Harms sends in the following.
 
It's a French anti-AIDS ad depicting Superman and Wonder Woman if they were to contract the disease.
 
As The League is usually not very useful, we thought the least we could do is to promote a little AIDS awareness... even if the ad is in French and we're not sure what it says. 
 
click here for the link.

here is a link to a more complete, but no less French, website with the images.

Randy sends this one in, a comparison between the robots in the new film I, Robot, and those seen in a Bjork video from a few years back. 
  
I need Jeff to help me locate an image from the way cooler robot from the Autechre video from 1996 or 1997.
 
In the meantime, I remind you all that I, Robot was foreshadowed by the late-80's triumph, R.O.T.O.R.
 
Hello to Kevin Bankston, should he actually pop up here.
 
Kevin has forwarded this blog entry to me, which he believed I might enjoy.  And now I share it with you.

Hulk saw movie about bug-man and it was good but needed more smashing.
AND HULK DID NOT GET SNIFFLY DURING ROMANTIC SCENES SO IF YOU HEAR IRON
MAN OR THOR TALKING ABOUT IT THEY ARE LIARS.
 
The Incredible Hulk has a blog.
and now this law related tale which will never see the light of day on Jim's site.
 
Straight from my wife's home state, another thrilling tale of judicial misconduct.

thanks to Randy for the link
"I'm not normally a religious man...  But if you're up there...  Save me, Superman!"  -Homer Simpson
 
thanks to RHPT.com for the quote
 
When I got married, as the reception ended my old man had rented this kind of classic convertible.  I am sorry to say I can't remember much about it.  I only saw it from the inside as, while we running down to the car, folks were blowing bubbles instead of tossing birdseed, and I got soap in my eye.  All I knew is that I was then piled awkwardly into the convertible for a photo op.
 
We posed for some pictures, waved to everybody, and off we went. 
 
And the last thing I heard as we pulled away from the curb was, "So long, Superman!"
 
It took me months to find out who that had been.  Thanks to Jeff Shoemaker who said the only three words I remember from that evening after, "I do."
