1. Mo!
Hey, now we're talking...great piece!
wow, we go from the stiff, "Ed Sullivan" robotics to the fluid," Mikhail Baryshnikov" robotics...very neat....
But the real surprize is your interview with STAN LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for putting this up.
(W.B. loved it!)
ah, Clem at 9:32PM on May 5th 2008
2. Great job, Mo. Can we get back to politics and the ped egg prize, though?
FINN! COME BACK!! YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THE LEAD IN THIS JOHN HUGHES MOVIE....

3. Man, I really should have went to ComicCon.
And Finn is apparently on tour.

4. Aw Mo,
It is not surprising that "Iron Man" is produced by Raytheon. All new technology is first used for military purposes.
But as Stan Lee gestured with his hand, the fantasy buffer increases proportionately to reality. And then, technology is used for the second most demanded purpose.

6. AS TO FINN:
I guess he went fishing.
I hope it wasn't "Robot" fishing.

Come back FINN!

Now, come back.

Show me two robots that can do this.

8. Or,
The real robot reveals itself.
What survives after nuclear holocaust?
Meatloaf, because of talent, and this one, the original "bionic woman."

9. Aw Mo,
Okay, okay, stop the emails folks! I'm not that liberal.
Just to prove it, I'll post the "real" Iron Man video.

10. Bloop Bloop...
Thanks for saving me from that robotic shark, Roccats!
I decided to return from hiatus because, if nothing else, Robert Downey Jr. has proven that you cannot keep a good man down...
And while the XOS suit is impressive, it makes me wonder if they could find a way to robotocize the current political scene which grows more tiresome by the day...

12. Hello,
My name is Hank Kimball and I am running for my refridgerator.
Or is it running toward me?
Anyway, I am running for President, or Vice President or Town Clerk. I'll take what I can get. I am glad to see that my mentor, Alden L., has survived the fishing trip off Amity Island. But taking the Posiedon Shuttle back to shore was not the best idea.
Anyway,
I really love my hat. It has holes it it. Much like the Titanic. And today's robots can't compare to Robby or the Robinson's.
What's the point you ask? My pencil asked the same question--and received the same response.
So, that having also been said,

Just for the Hat '08
Hank Kimball at 3:35PM on May 6th 2008
13. Hey Kimball,
Learn to spell "Li'l Frigerator." It's on the same album.
Aw Mo,
This is not an automatic response. I will, once and for all, end the “Tulips” controversy as well as make a fine suggestion for an approaching “Hallmark” holiday. Note: I do not endorse this company, nor do I disparage its potentially fine products.

And, my last word of the day (believe it or not) is a question.
Not to put words, (or more denture adhesive) in her mouth, Helen Thomas asks “Why is Tiny?” and a follow up question--“Why is Tiny a Dancer?”

As R.S. always said,
Good Night and God Bless.

14. Oh what fun! I had a flashback to going to cons in high school.
And hurrah for an appearance from the beloved Stan Lee!!!
Nice report.
