Hey everyone, here's the one promised review of the week (I'll try to get another one up on Friday). Jaya's given us her two cents on W.I.T.C.H, and if I get that interview finished by Friday (which took a lot longer to write down then I thought it would), I'll have it up by then. There are two things you can do though if this site isn't updating fast enough for you though. You can bid on some stuff, or you can visit my MySpace account. Yes, I got a MySpace account. Don't ask me why, but I'm kind of enjoying it now. I think I need some serious help.

I think something's wrong with me. I've spent almost the entire week trying to get my review of "Superman Returns" finished, but I'm just not feeling the inspiration vibe from this movie to write a proper review. I've torn this thing down and tried re-writing it several times, but none of the times I've written it seem to work. I'm beginning to think I may just have to move on from this review, esspecially since it's cost me an update today. There are several other reviews that I could probably write that would be much easier to, so why am I fixated on this? Maybe because I am having difficulty with it? Maybe it's because I hate being beaten with the idea of something I can't find the proper words to write about? Well, whatever the reason, I've got this review pegged for Friday now, and it will. Not. Beat. Me. Oh, and for that update we worked on Greg, I'm still working on getting it on HTML. I'm about halfway through, but school starting has distracted me. But don't worry, it's coming.

School starts in a few days for me. Yippie yi yay. I'm still going to write reviews, but I'm glad that Kevin's going to start writing two a week again. And here's a reccomendation for you: go out and read whatever book catches your mind, be it romance, horror, classic or comic. If you go to www.shannonhale.com and read the blog, you'll see my meaning. We've been having a long discussion about this.

Well, I've got some explaining to do I take it. You're all probably wondering why the site hasn't been updated for a couple of weeks. Don I normally warn you guys about things like that? Well, I got sucked up into housesitting for a couple of weeks, and I had no way to update the site. Sorry. I DID get some reviews done though, and I have posted one (of sorts) for "Vs." The updates should be pretty steady from this point out (darn it, every time I say that updates go to hell. Just forget I said anything, I don't want to jinx it). Oh, one thing I didn't get to comment on was that I was selling some Comic Con goodies and signatures on eBay. If you guys didn't see it on your own, I'm sorry, as there was some really cool stuff up too. However, a couple of items are still up. So here's the link to the whole list of items for sales, and below are some items of special interrest to people:

Signed Rurouni Kenshin Book
Signed Scott Pilgrim Book
Signed Kare Kano Book
Signed Penny Arcade Book (Includes sketch)

I'll be selling some vintage silver and golden age comic books soon, so I'll keep you up to date about that. And tune in Friday for a VERY sepcial update! How special? Sorry, not telling you. You'll have to check in to find out. Later everyone!
