Yeah, it's a great paint job, no argument there! Johnathan

But it's a bird made of fire - does it really need any type of armor? And how is it holding the solid metal mask on its fiery head? And wouldn't the mask eventually just melt off from the phoenix's incredible burning heat? These are the questions running through my mind after seeing your...

Good job on the painting, but for the life of me I can't figure out why a phoenix would be wearing a mask,,,or where he'd have gotten a mask...or why anyone would craft a mask for a phoenix to wear. Just weird. Johnathan

I'm now starting the fourth book (finished the third book last night) of Jonathan Maberry's "Joe Ledger" series, this one called Assassin's Code. It starts off with Ledger and his Echo Team rescuing a group of American college kids held hostage in Iran, and from there spirals into a tale...

I'd agree with Firefly, but for a completely different reason: I want to see the rest of season one that was never filmed! I'd really like to have multiple seasons, but at this point I'd be happy if they had been allowed to make one full season. Johnathan

I'm now on the third book in the Joe Ledger series, The King of Plagues by Jonathan Maberry. Somebody's using the biblical plagues to tear down world economies and profit from the chaos, and it's up to Joe and his Team Echo to find out who and put a stop to them. Johnathan

And I'm pretty sure I saw Gillian Anderson in that trailer.... Johnathan

Jeffery Deaver has a series of thrillers (The "Kathryn Dance" series - four novels to date) based on that concept - she's a member of the California Bureau of Investigation, and she's an expert on interrogation and kinesics. Once she sets up a baseline, she can tell when a person is lying...

Answered riddles, entered Forbidden Lands. Johnathan

According to his Dragon and Dungeon co-workers I talked to at Gen Con a couple of decades ago, he can belt out a pretty mean version of Chumbawamba's "Tubthumpin'" - but you need to get a couple of beers in him first. Johnathan

Well, good for Chris - he's a great guy. I hope he enjoys his post-retirement career (or chosen lack thereof). Johnathan

Good point! Johnathan

It's a little early for the 100 best books of the 21st century, though, isn't it? Shouldn't we finish out the century first? Or was the list compiled by time travelers? Johnathan

Sure - just not in the same sandwich. Johnathan

This isn't particularly unusual as sandwiches go, but I've been told I need to cut down on the carbs and to drop the white bread. I noticed at the grocery store last week that wheat bread and honey wheat bread have the same number of carbs, so I went with the honey wheat, which I'd never had...

Judge Judy's shrill, harpylike voice puts my nerves on edge. I can't even be in the same room when my wife watches her show. Johnathan
