I woke up this morning to find that my wife put my new car insurance slip on my keyboard. It really is the little things that you can do to show someone you love them.

I'm about six or seven chapters into Ten Cent Plague now and it's a great read so far. I don't know if many here know much about comics, but Hadju spends almost a whole chapter talking about Charles Biro's and Bob Wood's Crime Does Not Pay. It hasn't happened yet in the book yet, but I'm wondering if Hadju is gonna bring up HISTORICAL SPOILER! Wood's Downfall. Maybe he doesn't cause in the grand scheme of things it didn't have a major impact on comics, but man, I feel like there's just an irony there that deserves at least a footnote. Overall though, it's a very good book, kind of hard to keep track of what's going on because so many people and so many events are mentioned and then not really brought up again. Still, it's a great, great book.

I wanna do another antiques post from something from my collection for Hubski pretty soon, but I've been really busy as of late. I think I'm gonna ask for a day off work so I can focus on just that. I have something a bit different planned than my usual “Here's a thing guys! Check it out!” I know I'm not the best writer but I really like my antiques and they're fun to share.
