Brandi Chastain's a fan of the bared midriff, isn't she?
When I was coaching, I saw a lot of that look on hot days (during practice).
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I notice that some skating outfits include bare (or simulated bare) midriffs. Given the seeming skimpiness they display -- and the fact that they stay on during some quite vigorous activity, which is as close to superhero antics as most real humans get outside of martial arts classes -- I don't have a conceptual problem with many of the superhero costumes.
But no capes, dahling, no capes!

One assumes anybody with the Super- prefix as part of their hero name doesn't have to worry about the hazards of cape-wearing.

Just wait 'til it gets snagged in that black hole.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I'm trying to find an image on the interweb of a Simpsons character (any character... maybe not Bart... Homer's OK) rendered as an old-timey etching. The best I've thought of is the Flaming Moe/Cheers opening parody, but I'd like something even more etching-like. Seems like there should be some merch done up that way. Any suggestions?

There's the one of Homer that keeps appearing in the dictionary in the ep where he saves the plant from an uncontrolled fission surplus. [link]

Oooh, that's pretty good. Though something more "professionally" rendered would be ideal.

Can you do a screen capture from the DVDs? It's in season 3, disk 1. (I know this because I watched it yesterday.)

I have the DVDs and I should be able to find software that does that.
I was also thinking of the bit from Dancin' Homer where he does the Lou Gehrig speech. Doesn't it morph into an old-timey look?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I finally read the end of Secret War. Until I saw #5, I hadn't even realised I'd not bought #4.
How irritating. I might have been able to get past the mindwipe if they hadn't been so damned trendy. Maybe.
But they kept using the same.damned.trace of Jolie from Hackers. It was icky.
