This is 497.  I got three more books from the library today.  Any ideas who wrote them?  Oh, yeah Chuck Palahniuk.  I love his writing style.  I think I have mentioned that in previous blogs.  One of the last books I finished was called "Diary" and it was written in diary format.  It didn't have his usual rhythm but the plot was great and had some interesting twists.  That is one of Palahniuk's writing strengths, plot twists and turns.  I love it.  Anyway the three books I got today are all different styles.  "Haunted" is a collection of 23 horror stories and during an instore book reading during his tour for "Diary", he read one of the stories and 40 people fainted during his reading so he knew that it would be a winner.  He continues to read the story and as of today there have been 73 recorded faintings.  "Rant" is a fictional tale about a serial killer written in oral interview style.  Yeah, I found it interesting to have a fiction book written in interview format.  The third book is "Stranger than Fiction: True Stories".  It is a nonfiction book and is a collection of articles written for publications and the Internet.  So I guess I will be busy reading for a few days.  I am still waiting on a fourth book called "Snuff" which I've heard is about breaking a gangbang record and Palahniuk has a vicious sense of humor seeing he released the book on Mother's Day of 2008 and then this spring his next book will be released.  Also, I am getting psyched for Choke to come out in the theaters but I have this feeling that due to sexual content it won't be in many theaters.  Oh well, I'll get to see it.  Time for some comic books.

The first thought I had when I saw Superman and Batman guarding a kid's bank is that they plan on robbing it to teach the kid a lesson.  That is the kind of dicks that they are.

I think the only thing horrific about this comic is the cover.

This is the official comic book of the National Council of Repairmen.

Chief is so fucking metal punk rock.  He should teach Avril Lavigne a lesson with his Satan horns. 

So the best name you can come up with for a box shaped robot, is Box?  I really need to get into comic writing if that is what gets published.  I couldn't do much worse.

That's PG level cleavage on Phantom Lady.  I am just amazed that this is a comic from the early 50s with all that partial nudity.  This is probably when comic artists started making unrealistic images for women in the comic books so that the nerds could drool and expect that is the type of woman they could get one day.  COMICS HAVE RUINED MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah! That's a bad touch in my no-no area!  BAD TOUCH!

Last week I posted a Super Magician cover of him swimming.  I am still tryign to figure out why this guy is a super magician.  Maybe he pulled that skull out of his sleeve.  Oh and that is one large pygmy.  I suppose they can get away with saying they are a giant pygmy because they are from a lost land.  Wow, those writers are pretty clever.

NOW THAT IS NAGGING I CAN HANDLE!!!!!!!!!!  Don't know what bukkake is?  Let wikipedia explain.

Sure they do, Joker, sure they do...I am glad that The Dark Knight's Joker looked nothing like this.

OK, the subliminal message in this one is telling me to suck chick.  Yes, I must suck a chick....comics are great but this one is pretty fucking racist.

This is Star Wars meets bondage porn...oh wait Star Wars already delved into the subject of bondage porn when Leia was held captive by Jabba the Hut...god I am such a nerd.

Time for some linkage.

You had me sold at beer coaster...seriously this looks like the ultimate lawn mower and it was found on Craigslist.

And I thought celebrities gave their children horrendous names.  Good thing Matthew McConaughey didn't see this article.

Enjoy these three links that correspond with The Dark Knight.  First Second Third

I've used that logic when talking to a police officer after admitting to firing my CO2 pistol in city limits when I had to kill some baby skunks that were living under my parents porch.  Although I didn't shoot at a lawn mower.  That is one of the best mugshots ever and the setting of the story makes it all the better.

This story is sort of like the time I went out to a bar with an African American friend and he was mistaken for numerous NBA and NFL players.  We got free drinks after he told people he played for the Packers.  I have to admit it might be hard for me to spot the Dali Lama.  I might actually recognize one of his past lives but not the present....insert rimshot here.

Want to make your own Death Star?  Don't have enough money for supplies and space travel?  Try this and make one out of melon.

It really lives up to its name.

Short answer, yes.  Is it any surprise that this story takes place in Iowa?

I have to ask, who is the person that wants to put one of these on their dog?

Sort of like a thesarus for writers of erotica.  I guess I don't feel strange with my name.

Well it is time to hit the books.
