Harvest

Originally written in October of 2010. This is an attempt at an original story about Superman. Hopefully, this won't get me into too much trouble with DC Comics, who owns Superman and all related characters. I also hope I don't get into too much trouble with other comic book geeks. The sun was shining brightly … Continue reading Harvest

Letters

I've mentioned on occasion that I consider myself to be something of a comic book geek. It's not a label I pin to my chest for all the world to see on a daily basis. Though, if it was a fact that I was trying to hide, I certainly wouldn't publish it on a blog … Continue reading Letters

Another Innocuous Super Power

Not long ago, I brought you the story of Park-Man, the man with the uncanny ability to always find a great parking space. Today I bring you the story of the guy that can always make the perfect mix of music for any given situation. He called himself Mix Tape Man. He knew that, these … Continue reading Another Innocuous Super Power

Lois & Clark

There's a pretty good book out there by Tom DeHaven called It's Superman! It's a retelling of the origin of the world's greatest super-hero. Over the years, Superman's origin story has been written and rewritten over and over again. Different authors change certain scenarios: time frame, location, circumstances. But no matter who does the telling, … Continue reading Lois & Clark

Tribute to Star Wars and John Williams

I first saw this video about six years ago. But I'm pretty sure it's a lot older than that because it mentions Episode III coming in 2005. I still get this guy's lyrics stuck in my head sometimes, particularly recently when I went to see Jurassic World and heard that classic Jurassic Park theme song … Continue reading Tribute to Star Wars and John Williams

Another Haircut

I've needed one for so very long. I put it off much longer than I normally would. I've been dealing with shaggy hair growing over my ears and covering the back of my neck. It was very uncomfortable. So I finally went to get it cut yesterday. I went to Sport Clips, as I usually … Continue reading Another Haircut

The Unrecognizable Lois Lane

I don't think I've mentioned on this blog yet (except for my About Me page) that I'm pretty fanatical about all things Superman. I have been for as far back as I can remember. One of those things is definitely the character of Lois Lane. Now, I'll admit, part of that could be a Teri … Continue reading The Unrecognizable Lois Lane

Did You Lose Your Glasses?

A little more than a year ago, eyeglasses were not a part of my regular wardrobe. Then I saw an optometrist who let me know my vision was no longer as perfect as it once had been. I used to pride myself on having 20/20 vision. My 30s, it seemed, were catching up to me. … Continue reading Did You Lose Your Glasses?

100 Random Facts About Me

I did one of these posts back on my old blog, Carp Dime. But this isn't Carp Dime. This is The Confusing Middle. I have new readers here, or, at least have the potential to have new readers here. This is a blog where no one really knows me. So here I'm providing a retelling … Continue reading 100 Random Facts About Me
