Lately I have been exploring my love of comic books. My son Alex and I have been reading 'The Marvel Universe Handbook' together. Marvel has always been my bag, though I will say DC has the costumed adventurer I always wished I could be. That was the Flash. Growing up on a piece of isolated farmland in Pennsylvania my mind tended to wander. I read a lot (big surprise there) and one of the thing...

No matter where you live on the planet, you are probably experiencing the slowly (ok, maybe quickly) sinking economy. Whether in the U.S. of A, the U of K, the E of U, Down Under or East of the Sun and West of the Moon - the economy sucks. If you are my age (Gen-X elder) or older, you can recall the Regan / Thatcher era of the early 1980s, and how woefully sucky those times were when it came to...
