Retail is pretty hit or miss for me but it stands out that for as rare as it gets into Cooper's nerdy media interests it's managed every time to hit something that while isn't totally obscure is at least further out of contemporary mainstream than Working Daze or Intelligent Life ever venture.

Again a very likpatous story

I guess I can't argue with this, Geordi wasn't exactly a bad character but you had story arcs like the one where he fell in love with a computer simulation (and then got reamed by the woman he based it on in a later season). In fact most Geordi stories are either "really bad at trying to date the ladies" or "Data's sidekick."

Yeah now I'm even more confused as to whether or not that whole sequence was a dream or not because if it was it seems like he should be in jail now, not in a hotel. And it seems like he would be talking about how he blew up like three boats and a helicopter, not just "I got in a fistfight with my dad."

Mark also had several animals talking to him during that chase sequence so it may just be canon now that Mark Trail suffers from terrifying hallucinations.

An aneurysm ruptured in his brain upon seeing his dad's boat (hence the ekg line in the background of his reaction) and this is all a dream as he lies on the dock dying of a stroke.

I only have excellent ideas
I'm still having grievous phone problems but here's a little something: the title page to "Serial Monogamy," the book-only autobiographical story that Alison Bechdel included at the end of Dykes to Watch Out For: The Sequel. It's a good story and an interesting prelude to her later turn towards memoir.

Drawn and Quartered - 1942















Rationing. Guessing that this was a response to the national mood concerning the sudden scarcity of tires, especially since the US' main source for latex rubber, the Dutch East Indies, was cut off in late 1941. While gas rationing sidelined a lot of cars, a ton were put up on blocks for the duration due to no tires, and in some cases, people traded extremely expensive cars with dangerous baldies for a cheaper car with newer tires.
