On my way to St Hives I met a man with seven Hives...

I'm going to have to search out my comic book collection to see if they did use that design for either utopia or their Marin county base because I think you are right.

I did a quick look on wikias.marveldatabase. Unfortunately, beyond the main building of the San Fran base I have no clue (since I stayed away from Uncanny X-men for most of the post Messiah Complex run).

The Utopia base (which is often drawn as being located in San Fracisco bay), however, is a different story because every artist seems to have their own take on its size and design. I actually seen one image which looks like a compressed version of the getty minus several buildings. So good eye. :D
 


I have a happy computer again.


I started to get a really virus/worm from facebook but I think I got it in time. I'll be talking to the banks about it this week. It targets fin. stuff which outside of paypal I refuse to do with my computer.

Still scarey however.


and no more Facebook for me.
 

I believe 1 April is on friday.

Friday is payday for me too. I need to pretend we don't have checks for at least one person. "I'm sorry, our printer died so we were unable to print any of the checks for this week. Unfortunately what that means is that no one is getting paid at least until Monday when hopefully someone is going to be coming out and fixing it."

Man, some people get uptight if they think they can't get their checks the minute they enter the office. :)
 



Life is truly weird.

A few months ago, I brought 2 rings I designed back to the jeweler who I commissioned to do the work for some repairs. They were stolen out of his office on a long weekend. Because they were in his bench safe and not his main safe, they weren't covered by his insurance. He ft bad, but this guy is a buddy, so I wasn't about to get pissed with him about it. Instead, we started talking about remaking them.

Then 2 weeks ago, he got word a jeweler buddy of his (in Mississippi) had died...and he was asked to handle part of the estate.

There, in a bunch of stuff his buddy had bought in an inventory closeout was one of my rings! It had been pawned in Amarillo before his buddy had gotten it in the closeout sale.

The odds against the ring finding it's way into the hands of the man who made it- and thus, back to me- are simply astronomical!

OK- it ain't winning the lottery, but I'll take it!
