Arcadia

I have honest-to-pete maps in my car. Seems like everyone else I know is using those electronic thingies now (Garman?) I hate 'em, I have never liked machines that talk. And they're not that smart, either. However, I just recently learned that (almost?) nobody sells maps anymore! Sacrilege! A friend and I were trying to find an alternate route back home recently, and I knew there was one, but we couldn't figure out how to get to it. Stopped at two convenience stores and a gas station; none of them sold maps anymore. Arrrghhh!

Even when you can't see their faces they are very cute.

Yeah, I'm expecting to do a little mourning myself. I just hope it's not Tony. But that would be the death that would gut everyone the most, I bet. Maybe Cap. Urgh. I'm wondering if that might come back to bite him, somehow. I'm hoping so; it would be fitting. I like it when karma comes around. Oh, right, I remember that. Why, I'm not sure … I can't remember if he ever appeared in any of the comics I read. He looked familiar when I first saw him, but nothing about the story line rings a bell. I think I may have him confused with Galactus.

It occurs to me that if I had to wear Loki's helmet, I'd probably be a villain too.

Hey Jamie! I think the book Carol is referring to is the Sherlock Chronicles, which is an overview of the series, bios of the performers, deleted scenes, things like that. But there's also the manga version of the first season, which might be more what you're looking for? I haven't seen whether they've done more than the first season or not; hopefully it will continue. Hope this helps.

Little bandits. I'd like 'em better if they didn't cause so much trouble; we had to buy a fancy container for the garbage cans, or the little stinkers get into them. Not to mention stealing the potted plants off the porch, and/or breaking the pots. And peeking through the windows at night and scaring us half to death. But they are cute....

Why not?

Cruel for cruelty's sake, do you think? Or is he just … well, a psychopath? Unable to empathize or feel remorse. Wonder if his whole race was like that or if he's just a very twisted specimen. And yet he seems to regret "having" to kill Gamora. Which makes him even creepier, somehow. I'm trying not to get too excited about Endgame, avoiding most of the speculation, etc. … I always regret it when I let the anticipation build up too much. At the same time, I can't remember the last time I looked forward to seeing a movie this much.

Suddenly I'm not so eager to explore space anymore.

This is why I've never got around to doing one. I love them, just don't have the time for them! But they're pretty cool.

Good point about Thanos. And I think I'm just not remembering the other movies well enough to say. Mostly I remember the awesome beat-down Loki got from the Hulk.

Closer! Maybe it's the way Tom plays him, but he just doesn't seem all that evil to me … more, as the man says, heartbroken. But then Thanos doesn't really seem all that evil either, does he? He's just … narrow-minded?

So true... *sigh*

Yeah, but you know, right? That's what counts. Well, in some ways. The important ways, right? Right? (ooooh shut up, John!) I have no idea what you are talking about.

Holy cannoli, they've turned John into the bionic man!!!!!! That, m'dear, is a Victorian lantern. As in.... I have to admit, I'm pretty impressed with both the likenesses and the quality of the workmanship. Who knew? Good job, VBS, it wasn't a complete waste of money after all. What the heck kind of diorama were you planning on? I'm guessing … VBS?
