    I'd love to hear the old Carolla that talked about football and 70s Funk bands. One of my all-time favorite bits is Adam singing Vehicle by the Ides of March.

    Did you read the newest issue, which i think came out last week?Developments on that particualr plot point.

    I hear on the radio that Toronto is again getting biblical amounts of rainfall tonight, maybe even with funnel clouds sighted, to go with the hot weather.

    Of course there have been different versions of the character. You could argue every time the creative team changes, a character is slightly different. But there are probably a dozen different interpretations of the character, not as many as Batman, but likely close to it. Edit: i'm a firm believer in the idea that characters change based on the zeitgeist of the era. Wrote a conference paper on that in my grad school days. Edit: so, based on that, i can see how this new movie version fits in with our hyperviolent, cynical popular culture. If you want me to say which version I personally prefer, i'd say the Bates/Maggin/Swan late 70s/early 80s and/or the o'Neil/Adams early 70s version and then the Kesel/Immonen run during the Triangle era. Not a great fan of classic Golden Age or Weisinger Silver Age, although that has its goofy charms. I like All-Star Superman, but i dont love Quietly's art, so that likely knocks itmdown a few rungs for me. Can't specifcally discuss nu52 Superman, as i've not read of them and have no great desire, even if they were by Morrison.

    Does "in recent years" include Morrison's all-star superman, which many people site as the best superman story of the last 25 years.

    Sounds like real life version of Do the Right Thing.

    Anyone read new book Wolfhound Century by peter higgins yet? Appears to be mix of thriller and fantasy set in Soviet Ruusia.

    It used to be a lot of complaining about LA's mayor. I think his views would likely be summarized as Libertarian.

    I thought they were setting up Arthur Light as a babyface. Or was just so they could kill him and bring in Dr Light II, who may or may not be his wife i.n the nu52?

    I wonder if they would include the Blade runners and the Dingo Warrior on a warrior DVD?

    I saw a picture purported to be fromAbu Dhabi last week of a signal light melting. --- This was definitely the year to go to Comicon. 70 in SD.

    Wasn't the talk for the longest time that Gaiman wanted to direct the Death movie? I assume Sara Gilbert and/Winona Ryder are now too old to play Death. Presumably, as the new It Girl, people would want Jennifer Lawrence to play her now.

    (Cultural stereotype question on) Do Japanese and Mexican wrestlers need to not be as "big" as American/Canadian wrestlers to qualify, given their average person from their country is smaller? (Cultural stereotype question off)

    As someone who has been working outside most of the week, adnittedly just taking notes while others did much heavier work, i agree. Its been 4-5 on the army's wet bulb index, so lots of water breaks and sittinf in shade.
