My nephew has his own flickr page now -- as you can see he's both artistic and insightful:

Mickey Spillane wrote "characters such as The Human Torch, Sub-Mariner, Captain America, Blue Bolt, Batman, Captain Marvel and Plastic Man".

Plastic man? Human torch? really? That is so bizarre, very non-Mike Hammer types. How did Graypumpkin not know about this?

At the culmination of two weeks of College Championship playoffs, Jeopardy cut away from the final Final Jeopardy question to commercials, then returned with footage from a completely different Final Jeopardy round. From a previously un-aired episode. Shocking. Though I did find the results on-line, I don't see anything about the glitch, so maybe it was the local affiliates error? It did lead me to this, however, so all's well that ends well:

The world is a sadder, emptier place with the tragic death of my nephew Finn, a sweet, clever, funny little boy I will miss dearly.
