The only type of bike that one has a chance of keeping in Toronto is the battered and worn type. Admittedly, my last bike was <I>also</I> battered and worn, and someone <I>still</I> stole it.<BR/><BR/>I shall try to get a new post up in a couple of hours.

However, Stan Lee's name still appears on it; even King Features' official <I>Spider-Man</I> page lists him as the writer. It seems to be impossible to discover who is writing <I>Spider-Man</I> nowadays. It's a pity. I would like to shake this/these person/people by the hand and congratulate him, her, them, or it on the pure stupidity of the strip.<BR/><BR/>Voxindeserto: You're right. Something could probably also be made of the stolen clocks (stolen time? The end of time and therefore the world? Who watches the watchmen? Er...).<BR/><BR/>Simon: Once I get off the fersoun, I think I'll snap a few pictures with my derkchaumbre.

That's a very serious offence. I'd suggest hanging the village elder straight away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
