JOE SIMON, RIP: Remembering the legendary ‘Captain America’ co-creator, who has died at 98



“Joe Simon and Jack Kirby’s Captain America was the first comic I read that made me feel like I was watching an exciting action movie,” Stan Lee has told Comic Riffs. “To me, the way Simon and Kirby wrote and drew Captain America gave me the same thrill as watching Errol Flynn playing Robin Hood on the big screen.
“There was a sense of power and drama and excitement in Joe and Jack’s work that made it totally unique and always enjoyable.”
"The only way you can get good, unless you're a genius, is to copy. That's the best thing. Just steal."
Ritchie Blackmore

"I came," she said, "hoping you could talk me out of a fantasy."
"Cherish it!" cried Hilarius, fiercely. "What else do any of you have? Hold it tightly by its little tentacle, don't let the Freudians coax it away or the pharmacists poison it out of you. Whatever it is, hold it dear, for when you lose it you go over by that much to the others. You begin to cease to be."

- Thomas Pynchon (The Crying of Lot 49)

Awwww, ANOTHER friend of mine asked for my nonexistent BlackBerry pin

She was asking about my availability in this project of hers--and God knows I could use the extra dough after what happened to my kids' bedroom last week--and it seems txt messaging or talking on the phone just won't cut it.

Should I then step into the second decade of this century, and get myself a BB?

Do cats shit grass they once in a while graze?

I must be cool enuff not to get into a state of panic

The first BIG rain of the season just seriously showed the shitty work the last fuckin' roofer/handyman I hired did: My daughter's room is pretty much "destroyed."
She's gonna need a new bed, a new wardrobe, a new just about everything else, and that is if I can speedily find a decent roofer fix the downright totally fucked up drainage.
Shit I need more jobs.
