Comic books and blogs.

There was a time that I considered myself to be fairly up on computer lingo and places to go on the web, but I have to admit that before today I've never been to Myspace, although I understand that it is the place to be for everyone who is hip. It seems to be the common man's way to have their own web page, without actually paying for a private url.

That said, I just read that Dark Horse Comics and Myspace "inked a deal." I had no idea that something like Myspace was big enough or important enough that there could be a deal that needed to be inked.

Stars in my eyes.


Lots of late nights lately have me enjoying my half hour drive home from work taking in the glorious night sky.

One night recently, the family and I took our telescope out to the back yard and had a close-up look at Jupiter. It was fun to look at that little white dot and see four of it's moons in a line (three on one side of the planet, and one on the other). My son (with the sharp eyes) could also make out a few lines on the panet. When he mentioned it to me, I could make out one.

Perhaps we'll invest in a stronger lens for our telescope some day soon.
