Spider-Man related stuff I saw in Wal-Mart today:
The merchandising blitz has begun!
Lately, I’ve been thinking about starting to collect low-grade Silver Age comics. I’ve tentatively decided to start with Fantastic Four 51-100. These are all key issues, mostly (all?) by Stan and Jack, and they’re still affordable in lower grades. I figure I’ll pick up a few on eBay, then maybe some more in San Diego this year.
Voltron’s in Get Your War On!
Funny site of the week: AFDB

Yahoo Knows Best, Resets Users’ Marketing Prefs
This kind of thing is very annoying. If they’d sent out a notice saying they were going to do it, it wouldn’t be so bad, but it really sucks that I had to find out about this at slashdot, and not directly from Yahoo.
I added a blog archive page today. See the link to the left. I’ve been blogging since June 2001 now, averaging just a few posts a month. That really seems like enough, though, doesn’t it? I really don’t do interesting things, or have interesting thoughts, every day.
Well, I just went through the paperwork to transfer my domain to DNS Central. I will also soon be switching to the GeoCities $5/month account, so I will have FTP access and remote loading capability. Long story, pretty boring. The end result is that I don’t like any of the other free web providers, and I’m leery of the various other low-cost hosting services. Some of them look pretty cheesy. Hopefully, Yahoo/GeoCities will continue to work well. And the $5/month will get rid of the annoying ads on this page! Yay!
I’m still looking for good coffee-related links. Here’s a new one:
