Dan Liebke’s Astonishing Tales

So I was listening to Hello by Lionel Richie last night. Lyric of interest: “So let me start by saying ‘I love you’”. Huh. Credit where it’s due, it’s a bold opener from the L-Man.

There’s a fresh new recap of the latest episode of Heroes over at Morgan’s blog. As always, there’s muchos fun to be had in the recap itself and loads of silly discussion brewing in the comments. Topics already up for discussion include:

The fluid US geography of Earth-Heroes
The art of putting Claire-Bear in her place
Californian etiquette? [...]

There’s Brooke Burke discussing Mark Twain with Dr Martin Sheen over at 2MB Community Radio. The usual ongoing nonsense over at whatsername’s blog. And far too much to summarise over at the Drinks Break blog.

(Of course, by ‘once again’, I don’t mean she’s recapped this particular episode on multiple occasions. She’s not a crazy person. I mean instead, as per this post, she’s recapping each and every [...]

Over at Drinks Break, we’ve just finished the thrilling First Test between India and Australia, which ended, thrillingly, in a thrilling, uh, draw. Meanwhile, 2MB Community Radio returns from holidays with Dem Hatin’ Haydens revealing their vacation vexations. And, of course, whatsername’s blog is now getting daily updates on her ridiculous antics.
