Wolverine is "inexplicably" a fan of the Boy From Oz musical.
That's funny. I like the meta.
They haven't made Storm look like Halle Berry, have they? Because she so does not.
Storm looks like a million different things (very inconsistently drawn), but she's no more Halle than before. Which made it funny to think that Storm's a crap Halle, Halle's a crap Storm.
Comic-OC thought: I really want to know who was arguing which side in the great
Storm/Cyclops
smackdown. I want to know what the writers think, as well as the characters.
So we can blame the Danish.
OTOH, they gave us, well, danish. Or at least the name for it.

Was it their idea to put cream cheese in the danish? If so, I'll love them forever.
OTOH, they gave us, well, danish. Or at least the name for it.
See, I think that it was all a plot to make the American populace fat. Blame The Danish!!
Blame The Danish!!

I missed the pseudorca discussion, but have I mentioned that I got X-Men (tm) checks? There's even one with

on it. I foresee a lot of unnecessary check-writing in my future....
Mike the Headless Chicken survived a beheading in 1945 in Fruita, Colo. Afterward, Mike could go through the motions of pecking for food, and when he tried to crow, a gurgle came out. His owner put feed and water directly into Mike's gullet with an eyedropper.
Scientists examined the chicken and theorized Mike had enough of a brain stem left to live headless. He was a popular attraction until he choked to death on a corn kernel.
I think this creeps me out more than anything I've ever read about an animal before.
