Danger! Octopod

Sanchez: 82 yds, 2 TD.  82 yds isn’t very much, but they weren’t really needed in an easy victory over the Indianapolis Colts.  

Octopod:  I’m pretty sure I cursed myself by starting this series of posts, because I went into work twice over the weekend, and had yet another migraine.

Sanchez wins AGAIN.

Current Standings: Sanchez - 2, Octopod - 1

Do you guys remember this?  Superman’s BEST FRIEND isn’t even immune to the bed bug scourge, and this epic tale continues in Superman #12.  Combined with Superman #7 and 8, this is the third reference to Jimmy having bed bugs.

Sanchez:  230 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT.  Mark went up against the Houston Texans, one of the best teams in the league, and came away with a loss though the Jets played respectably in the 2nd half, and all anyone cares about is Tim Tebow.

Octopod:  Mom’s bday celebration with some great food, followed by a migraine that lasted one and a half days, and during which I made a homemade pizza but experimented a bit with the sauce and it didn’t come out to my usual standard.

Winner:     Gotta give this one to Sanchez.

Current Standings: Sanchez - 1, Octopod - 1

Mark Sanchez, embattled QB of the New York Jets, has not been having a great time of late.  As the season goes on, I’ll be chronicling whether or not I’m having a better weekend than he does.  Week 1 is actually last week, since I still remember it.

For the record, I LIKE Sanchez, but NYC is rough on its quarterbacks.

WEEK 1:

Sanchez:  103 yds, 0 TD, 1 INT, one of the most boring games I’ve ever seen

Octopod:  delicious brunch, scored 10 albums at a street fair for real cheap

Winner:     Octopod

Current Standings:  Sanchez - 0, Octopod - 1

In G.I. Joe #150, Scarlett has a frank discussion with Snake Eyes over a super dangerous mission to rescue Storm Shadow from the clutches of Cobra and ends her speech with this gem. At no point does she even offer to help.

Mr Freeze has never looked less cool than he has in this outfit. The pun is barely unintentional, but I’m keeping it.

(no, seriously…the new Mr Freeze is terrible)

Every so often, whether it be drunk or in the middle of the night or just a lapse in sanity, I’ll make cryptic notes on my phone and subsequently forget what they mean. This here is a documentation of these notes.

The latest:

“gas mask wedding”

Dinosaurs vs the military. Seems like the dinos are winning so far…

G.I. Combat #2, “The War That Time Forgot”

Jeez Batman. That is NOT smooth.

Batman Incorporated #2

While we are on the subject of Superman #10, Jimmy Olson is a total creep.
