Sonnet-a-bitch!
Sonnets are surely a tough thing to write
In that they suffer from so many rules
Fourteen lines, ten word sounds, all done just right
A form for a poet, not one for fools
For fun, you can also make sure your verse
Omits one letter – that one after ‘A’
This new constraint makes the rules even worse
So, instead, throw [...]

Final Crisis: Issue Four – Darkseid Says

Okay. When last we left the DC Universe, Darkseid had unleashed the Anti-Life Equation, which, like most mathematics, is able to destroy the minds and will of all those who oppose it. Fortunately, there are some superheroes left, fighting the forces of evil with their own combined brand of stoutheartedness and innumeracy. One of them, [...]

Faux Pas
I hate when you’re at a party, deep in a conversation with somebody you’ve just met, and you drop in the phrase ‘there are more (somethings) here than you can poke a stick at’ (eg miniature porcelain Pol Pots), only to discover you’re talking to Four Time Freestyle Stick-Poking World Champion Bryce Buford. Because that [...]

Astonishing African Animals: Lions

Lions… Rightly known as the king of beasts, for just as rock and roll was dominated by Elvis Presley, the King of Rock and Roll, so too do lions dominate their peers. However, they do so in a substantially different way. Elvis, for example, never made a habit of slaughtering and consuming his contemporaries, although [...]

And of course you immediately think – what kind of deal is that? [...]
