    Is that the one that killed the old group? If it is I really enjoyed him. I felt like Marvel never used him though.

    Yes, it was. He appeared in a Heroic Age one-shot and a mini series that introduced the current Ms. America. He alluded to things he was planning. They never happened.

    Man, I hope @mwhitt80 wasn't eating during the Tennesee/Georgia game.

    Oops my bad. The New Zodiac was Joe Casey.

    Which he created before going to DC and killing the book Superman/Batman.

    I'll be honest when Jacob Easom threw the interception at 2:30, I decided that I could have a better a time tucking my daughter in bed (wasn't wrong btw). So I actually thought ESPN had the wrong score when I checked it after bed time.

    When I saw the last play all I could think was this is What happens when a former coach recruits 5'8 corners in a world of 6'5 receivers.

    Every week there's about a couple dozen knuckleheads wearing football jerseys at church. I thought I would join in on the fun.

    Westworld definitely had enough intrigue to get me back. Also checked out the IMDB page Ed Brubaker is credited as a writer on one episode.

    Ok couple of random things.

    Space-X exploding due to sabotage is the best conspiracy going right now.

    However my favorite conspiracy of the last 10 years is when I found out our President Barack Obama is a Chrononaught that helped establish a forward base on Mars to defend against alien invasion.

    Ric Flair has a new podcast, and he possibly gave Halle Barry a ride on Spaçe Mountain (post Dave Justice divorce).

    I started exercising again for the first time in a while (I was starting back in may, but our summer happened and threw everything out of whack). Apparently I am so fat now I broke the wheel on my elliptical machine. So one more thing I had to replace; the freaking wheel was $80.00 with shipping.

    I might have stumbled across a bootleg copy of Lucha Underground season 2. I also might be finishing a bootleg copy of season 1 as I exercise. So two things were possibly put on hold when my equipment malfunctioned.

    Finally if you haven't filled your 2015 tax return please remember that final deadline is October 15.

    Lots of random thoughts. I didn't even go into my ridiculous Amazon/Internet purchases from the last few weeks.
    Amazon
    Able Team 1-3
    Phoenix Force 1-3
    Executioner #14
    I've got two reading goals right now: 1) read the Executioner books actually written by Don Pendleton and 2) figure out how in the heck Able Team got out of jail. Those guys got arrested for helping to kill like 200 mafia suits.

    One piece silicone straws because little people can't handle two piece silicone straws.

    Ronin and Ninja Assassin on Blu-ray and DVD because sometimes you just need awesome.

    From elsewhere being shipped to my office and slowly creeping into my house unnoticed:

    a Shimano Tallus fishing rod

    some speciality hooks and lures:
    The lures etc are the easiest to integrate into my tackle box unnoticed; the wife has started noticing new additions to my rods and reels. I don't hide things from her; I just don't go out of my way to bring attention to certain purchases.

    Hawaiian Dick volume 3

    Life Tip to the kids

    If one does utilize using a shipping point other than your home to circumvent unwanted and unwarranted scrutiny, you have to be more than ok overlooking your spouse's purchases and be generous enough to approve purchases she may ask/tell you about WITH minimal complaints. Even if it you need to put stuff on hold for a while to make her happy.
    It is the only fair and reasonable to deal with the situation.

    Along with your alternate shipping points, do you also have mutiple email accounts and phones? Is this a Tiger Woods type situation? :smile:

    I had a coworker who shared an email account with her husband. The marriage ended quickly when she started noticing emails from various "interactive adult websites" that her husband was signing up for.

    Alright, I'll play.

    - If this cough doesn't go away soon I'm going to take a hostage. Sadly, the cough has crippled me enough that any hostage I took could easily overpower me and get away.

    - I am *still* playing Pokemon Go.

    - Drawlloween has been fun so far. Daily drawing challenges in general are fun.

    - Man it's a looooong wait for my monthly DCBS shipment.

    I went through my monthly shipment in a one day marathon. Four weeks to my next. I know how you feel @Torchsong. Was a fun day though!

    It's one of these apps where you collect 'stickers' and 'cards' for various franchises. Valiant, DC, Star Trek, Firefly etc... some pretty cool stickers to incorporate to your keyboard. A lot of people spend silly money, but you get free coins to, which is what I use. Passes some time if you have nothing better to do.

    Well, my aunt & uncle managed to get out of Jacksonville before the hurricane. Last we heard, they were somewhere in Alabama.

    My elliptical wheel came in and has been fixed so I'm back on it baby!

    Fishing rod has been brought into the house unnoticed.

    Lucha Underground is still awesome.

    Brings me to the diet. not like I'm going on a diet, but what I eat on a normal daily basis diet. I'm back to 85℅ vegetarian, as much as I love grilling and smoking and eating pork and beef, my favorite eating habits is lots of veggies and a little chicken (not 100% true I'd eat rice and beans 2 out of 3 meals every day if I didn't have a minor allergy to rice). So I'm back on the train.
