No idea.

Betcha can't guess my RL name, either.

I'm just going to invite every realms person, despite distance.

Thanks, K-Man. The invitations are appreciated.

Stan, on the other hand, is a big ol' meanie for not sending invitations to anything.

So...... finally got to see two DVR'ed episodes of the new TV show "Comic Book Men".

Here are my thoughts:

- Kevin Smith has finally run out of ideas and has fallen back on the "Clerks" formula, albeit in the reality TV industry.

- He has also managed to fill his show with unlikable people who bust on each other all the time, with Walt Flannagan probably being the most annoying.

- It's pretty shameless how they show the cast taking glee in ripping off people who come in to sell stuff on the show. I mean, some poor slob got only $15 for a full set of "Crisis on Infinite Earths" with dupes in the stack. (Yes, this happens often in RL, but seeing it on the show bugs me.)

- The highlight of one episode was a visit from Jason Mewes ("Jay"). Holy smokes is this fella burned out. I have the feeling that Jay would be living in a crack house if it wasn't for his buddy Kevin Smith.

I remember back in the 90's when Smith's star was on the rise. Guess he reached his plateau and is sliding all the way down now. As far as the TV show, I don't know whether I'll keep watching. It has its moments, but overall it feels depressing (although it could be that I get flashbacks from my prior years as a comic book store manager.)

And that is all I have to say about that.

As expected, Stan won't attend. I'm going out of my way to come see him, but he can't return the favor. I see how it is.

Can I be in charge of head butts, hugs, and purple wardrobes?

There are so many new players that I can't remember everyone's real names anymore. We may have to do a new real name mafia.

You friended that guy? Man I hate that jerk.

Tons of people recommended this to me. Like I'm so two dimensional that I'll buy into anything nerd related... Ok so they figured me out. What of it?

Well, I think that you might find it amusing. Give it a shot.

In one of the eps, a guy drove up to the store in a 1966 Batmobile autographed by Adam West. Then he let the store guys drive it and one of them wore a Batman cowl. So there is some entertainment going on. I just can't say that I love the show. Thassall.

Is it like Pawn Stars?

Kinda.

They have different segments in the show. One of them is the clerks' interaction with people who come in to sell their stuff to the store or to have their collectibles valued. For instance, one guy had original art from Giant-Size Man-Thing. Another guy had a replica light saber that turned out to be an actual prop from The Empire Strikes Back. Interesting stuff.

(Heck, I wish I had held on to the replica phaser from Wrath of Khan that we used to have at the store where I used to work.)

Sounds cool, man.

Absolutely!!

If Stan's in charge of hugs, I'm not even going to bother.

Okay, removing Rokk from the insurance committee. Thought he would be good for it from a doctor's point of view. You are now a part of that committee. No ... Round Table. No committees. All Round Tables.

Rokk is now associated with another type of doctor and appointed the Master of Time Travel and all things Who related.

Is there room for me in your Adminitration, Truffs?

I wouldn't applying for the job of Minister of Magic.

That's right. And damn I'm hot.

Hm, I believe Mr. Bailes has a bit more snark to him.
