Micronauts #9 (Image, 2003) W - Dan Jolley P - Steve Kurth I - Barb Shulz C - Steve Kurth Another good action packed issue. I'd rate it a "worth reading". PS - I know I can't claim to be "reviewing" this series, I just have too much on my plate right now. So something is better than nothing, eh?

The Parker adaptations are amazing. If you like crime comics these are top of the heap.

I think I've been in love 3 times.
My dated my first girlfriend Stephanie when I was 13 - it was just dumb kid stuff. She's the best friend of my youngest sister and I still see her every once in a while. She told me I was a great first boyfriend - that was nice to hear. I thought I was in love, but we would go out frogging and dirtbike riding and other outdoor junk, so I was just figuring things out.
When I was 17 or so I met Andrea - I was living in Alaska and she was from Montana & was visiting her father for the summer. We talked about getting married. When she went back home it sure felt like love - but she never returned any of my letters. She was from a very religious family and even though I was raised christian I had lost my faith at this point, so I assume that had something to do with her non-response. In retrospect it was probably best we didn't get married - I really didn't know who I really was until years later.
I've thought a lot about what is love. I understand passion, and desire and need. But love? My best guess is love is when that person is not around you you miss them. Their absence is a weight on your soul. Love isn't some magical glow you feel when you're sitting on the couch next to your partner - love is when that person is out of town for a week you ache for their company.
I dunno.
All I know is I met my wife Cyndi in 1992 - we went on our first date in 1995. We had a rocky relationship in the sense that we were both young and dumb and hung out in punk rock bars, cable access studios and road trips. We married in 2005, on the tenth anniversary of our first date. While we have our occasional ups and downs we talk about our problems, and honesty is mega important to our relationship. I am still super in love with Cyndi and I feel like the luckiest guy in the world to have her in my life.
I've hesitated posting on this subject because I'm not good enough with words to explain what I feel. farg - this pandemic has been so hard - I've been making my living off of booking live events and running rock clubs for the last 20+ years and right now I can't work. But having Cyndi with me, well, we'll make it work.
So maybe love is also hope?
I dunno.

I finished watching HELSTROM last night, the 10 episode Hulu series loosely (very loosely) based on Marvels Son Of Satan character. There was more references to Ghost Rider comic history than Daimon Hellstroms, but overall I liked it. Too bad it looks like there won't be a 2nd season.

Just curious, who has the oldest music cassettes that still play? Either self-recorded or actual albums.
Was going through some things in a store room and found an unused pack of TDK SA-60s....last time I used tape was in the 90s, and mostly to grab something quick of the radio. Then I'd either go buy a single, an album, until the internet came along and I discovered MP3s....
Might put those tapes to use if only for the nostalgia....
There, I recorded it.
I have a Ram Jam cassette from the 1970's that was working about 5 years ago, the last time I had a car with a cassette played in it.

Well, if we are going down that road, how about the spiritual fathers of Punk: The Kinks! FYI - I've been hosting an annual Punk Rock Christmas radio broadcast on my show Sonic Reducer since 2004. I've also been an on air radio host on Xmas day for close to 10 years, and have been doing holiday themed podcasts for years too. I collect non-traditional holiday themed songs - it's a weird fixation that started with my dislike of regular Christmas songs and my love of songs like Don't Believe In Xmas by the Sonics, and Christmas With The Devil by Spinal Tap. I'd be happy to share some of my favorites if anyone is interested.

Micronauts #8 (Image, 2003) W - Dan Jolley P - Steve Kurth I - Barb Shulz C - Steve Kurth Ok, good issue here - Karza has invaded Earth and the Micronaut team arrive and try to get things figured out. This is an enjoyable quick read. I'm not really gonna review the rest of this run, just give my quick 2 cents. Good times to be found here.

So I know we're heading into Thanksgiving but beyond DJing a weekly punk show I also am a Christmas DJ & collect oddball holiday songs and do some Xmess podcasts, so I'm always looking for more unique junk. This is TODAYS favorite. Michael M - Humans Are Not Worth Saving (Merry Christmas)

Lisa Bonet born in 1967. Momoa born in 1979. Wiki sez - "In 2005, Bonet began a relationship with actor Jason Momoa. Although it was widely believed that she and Momoa married on November 15, 2007, their marriage was not made official until October 2017.[24] Bonet and Momoa have two children: a daughter born in July 2007,[25] and a son born in December 2008.[26]" Fact can be fun!
