I thought Boston's fireworks show was better than NYC's. Both were better than Houston's.

Houston the city or Houston the actress?

After "Spartan", Mongoose is my secondary nickname in real life. As a kid, in the youth of my childhood, I enjoyed roleplaying games with the my school chums. My favorite lad, Curt, and I enjoyed racing our bigwheels down the hills of our backwoods country town in Vermont and pretending that he was Don "the Snake" Prudhomme and I was Tom "Mongoose" McEwen. Good times.

Anyhoo, thusly, on certain Yahoo adult chatboards, I adopted the moniker Mongoose, however, when I signed up at Yahoo, seven hundred and sixty six incarnations of that name had already been taken. Thus I became Mongoose767.

I used that fake email account to open the illfated sock of the same name here.

Que sera sera.

In a similar vein, look for a very special appearance by "Ferret5320" in forthcoming Episode 42: "Boozed Up at Midnight in America."

Tell me about it, but for the wine, my 6 hour supper with Picasso would have been 6 hours too long.

I didn't like it. Too much with the sap. And the next movie features the Hob Goblin? Bad move. We've seen that villain already. My interest is waning.

One word to make the next movie the best of the bunch:

Venom.

In the movie or for the audience?

First time was humorous, second time boring, third time makes you want to reach through the internet and whack Atticus.

I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows women to give hand jobs over the internet.

I think that this has been discussed before, but Harry Osborne did not become the hobgoblin. He became the Green Goblin (um, II). Fashion designer Roderick Kingsley found the Green Goblin stuff, modified it, and then became the hobgoblin.

In addition, Peter's professor, Curt Connors (the one armed guy) shows up in Spiderman 2. He is the guy who became the Lizard in the comic books and is a potential villain for Spiderman 3.

I definintely think they need hotter women for the next one. Perhaps a supermodel to be Silver Sable.

As for the movie itself, the homage that Raimi did to the Evil Dead movies was very good.

Is this a language barrier thing? I'm well aware of whacking off, but where I come from, to whack someone (aside from the Soprano meaning), means to hit them on the side of the head. Is that a Canadian meaning, like pissed meaning drunk?
