He'll live...he always does...
I think I shall give you all a brief overview of a day in the life of DeathBug...I don't really know why...perhaps I hate you.

Anyway, so, I wake up at a quarter to six and shower, as the radio I've got next to my medicine cabinet playa the Best of the 80's. I'm dressed and pressed by five after, and log on-line for about thirty minutes before driving to school.

Once at school, I have breakfast and kill time until seven twenty. Then, I go to first period, AP English. This is followed by AP Spanish, and AP World government. Then comes Astronomy, then PC Support three and lunch. I finish my school day with World Religions and AP Macroeconomics. Whew...

After class, I either go to the Mock Trial practice, or the YMCA. After that, unless I've got something else to do, I go home and finish my homework. I help my mom with dinner, then, after cleaning up, have the rest of the evening to myself. I usually either watch TV or go on-line, or both.

Man, I'm boring.

Hmmm.....there was something else I wanted to do, here....but I can't remember what it was...it will come to me later...

So, I got comics, manga, Transformers, and video games this week. I went on a spree at the mall. ^^;

Let's see...

Spider-Girl #70: Poor Carolyn Trainer. She was so sexy in Amazing Spider-Man #409...Mark Bagly was a master...but she apparently has not aged well. Alas, alas.

Well, this issue was a fairly standard super-fight until the last page. Hmm...apparently, international crime lord Black Tarantula, seen a few issues ago, is in love with Spider-Girl...probably because she was willing to beat the crap out of him to save someone else's life. Things are about to get interesting, that's for sure.

Secret War-Book One: Nick Fury, head of SHIELD (Think the CIA for Super Heroes) inds out something interesting: the costs of maintaining all these various weapons that typical super villains use far outweighs their earnings.

Therefore, someone's banking thses guys. And if someone's doing that, then trhese aren't criminals anymore, they're terrorists. The big question is, who's doing this?

Ultimate Six #6: The Avengers versus the Six on the White House lawn....wow. Doc Ock versus the Wasp, Iron Man vs. Sandman, Thor versus Electro, Spider-Man versus Kraven anf the Green Goblin versus Captain America. Although I like what I see, I'm really ready for this series to wrap up, which makes it pretty convienientt hat the next issue is the last.

Spectacular Spider-Man vol 1-The Hunger: Venom's back, and, in addition to being a schitzo, he's attacking cancer patients. Spidey tracks him down, only to find...Venom's dying?! A kick arse story...

Quote: "I want to go home."-The symbiote

The Death of Gwen Stacy: Back in the early seventies, Garry Conway made comic-book history by actually killing a supporting cast member, in this case, Spider-Man's girlfriend. The Green Goblin did the deed, tossing her off a bridge like he would do to MJ in the movie thirty years later.

While tame by today's standards, it's still pretty good, and one of the must-read spider-Man stories.

Quote: "I loved her, Goblin! And you, you took her away! Filthy, worm-eating scum!" -Spider-Man (I guess that was harsh language for comics in the 70's.)

The All New Tenchi Muyo vol 3: Well, the past two volumes had been pretty harmless, but now things get...well, dark. Dark Washu, Washu's mischevious cyber-clone, challenges the gang to a series of tests to determine which is the superior Washu.

Of course, Tenchi and the gang win, but the nefarious Dr. Clay rewires Dark Washu, posessing her and making her an evil killing machine.

Evil chaos insues.

In the end, Washu and co. undo Clay's programming, but Dark Washu is nearly destroyed. Fortunatly, Washu saves whats left of her and uses it to create her new assistant, Tama-Chan. Huggles for everyone.

It's automatically cool because it's Tenchi Muyo.

Quote: "A gang war wouldn't be any fun without some risk, would it?" - Dark Washu

Transformer: Terrorcon: Divebomb- Hmmm....Energon is a very interesting line; not only did it produce a Velociraptor Transformer that I can't stand, it actually produced a hawk transformer I think is pretty awesome. Divebomb's got a very ninja-ish look to him, and is pretty neat-looking, sitting on top of my monitor.

Yu-Gi-Oh: Worldwide eDition 2004: Finally! ^___^ So far, I think the game's pretty nifty, but there's a few problems. first, the pasword system is gone. ;_; Second, the lower-tier duelists are easy to defeat. Third, it's a wee bit slow. Other than that, if you liked WWE, you'll probably like this.

The cards it came with were cool, ecept for "Fairy King Truesdale". Slate Warrior will be very popular.

Kinetic Soldier....gains 2000 attack points whenever he fights a warrior...*glares at KS* I loathe you...stop mocking me!!

Deep breaths....

Jackie Chan Adventures: So...that's it? The whole Demon mask plot wrapped up in thirty minutes? Kind of lame, actually. And weren't they going to do something with jade being Quen of the shadowkhan? They sure hinted at it enough. I don't think this is really the end...

Quote: "Whoa! Terakudo has legs!" -Jade

Xia-Lin Showdown: Eh, this show's okay. Even though I have no idea what's going on...

Yu-Gi-Oh: Gah, do Kaiba and Noa ever stop talking? And if Noa's some super whiz-kid braniac...why'd he need the Big Five? Noa's a loser.

And where the heck did Marik get to? He's not the kind of guy you can just forget about....

Shaman King: Finally, a new episode! And a new psycho, too. I don't know the deal with this Faust VIII guy, but I like 'em. Seems to be a evil freak, too. Good times.

Ninja Turtles: Clip show. Next!

I saw a really crappy horror movie...Halloween 3: Season of thw witch. Mike Meyers was not involved; it seems the plan was to make a new horror movie with a different plot every year, but apparently that did'nt work out.

The movie didn't have anything to do with witches; rather, a toy company that made Haloween masks was going to kill everyone wearing one of their masks...for some reason. seems to me like that'd hurt business, but...meh.

I advise you to never, ever see this movie for any reason. In fact, I'm going to spoil the ending for you, just so you're never even curious enough to watch it: the hero fails.

Well, I tired of typing, and I've got e-mails to respond to, and sleep to..get...so, I'll leave ya'll.

Thought of the moment: What would Jesus do for a Klondike bar?
