I make no secret about my love for Lois & Clark. I saved this one for Valentines Day because it makes me smile. So curl up with your super bestie. Or a good book. Both work.Read More →
Yes, zones. Plural. When I’m in the mood to read, romance novels are my favorite pick. I have authors and series that I’ve read so many times I could probably recite some of them. Since this entire site is devoted to that activity, I won’t go into any particulars here. When I’m in the mood to play, my favorite games bounce somewhere between building and adventure quest games. Which is honestly a weird place to be. Put it this way, I love the stories and puzzles of quest type games but can easily spend hours on good building games. Put the two together and I’mRead More →
Over the weekend I started re-watching my DVDs of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. It’s been several years since I actually watched them and I was curious whether they would hold up. Wow. Just watching Terri Hatcher and Dean Cain interact as Lois & Clark is still a joy to behold. Those two have unbelievable chemistry. Yes, I said have because I saw a Comic-con interview of them from 2018 or 2019 and it’s still there. 25 years later. Oh, there are other TV series that I loved before and after but Lois & Clark is special to me for a lotRead More →
Quick WOT update first. I finished Book 3 The Shadow Rising and started on Book 4 The Fires of Heaven after a weekend break. I’m working on a WOT related post where I interview my son about being a die-hard fan of the series but that’s on hold until I can pin him down to talk about it. Now on to one of my personal fan obsessions. (Although not as obsessed as he is about WOT.) I love this print and want it for Christmas! When I first ran across it I didn’t see the Dean Cain Superman so I passed over it. Then IRead More →
(Years ago when I was very active in the Lois & Clark fandom, I put a list together of all my favorite quotes from that show. And then it grew. There are probably a few more that I could add to it because I know I don’t have every episode represented. I may even one day create a video with all these clips. But, just for fun, I thought I’d throw it out there.) “Lois is . . . well, she’s complicated. Domineering. Uncompromising. Pigheaded.” … “Brilliant.” (THE PILOT) “What he can’t do it doesn’t matter. It’s the idea of Superman. Someone to believe in.Read More →
I’ve been saving this picture since I went to the Superman Celebration in Metropolis in June this year because I knew Lois Lane’s “birthday” was coming up. What can I say, we spent a wonderful day there where of course I picked up some wonderful Superman swag: a Metropolis, Illinois, Superman swag bag to hold all the goodies in a small wooden jewelry box that has absolutely nothing to do with Superman but that has a gorgeous picture of woman (girl?) in period dress reading on the top three new Superman tee-shirts, all very different in style a new Superman mug The Kryptonite Companion, aRead More →
I may be a little distracted from thinking about books over the next week or so since I bought a copy of the new season one Lois & Clark DVD yesterday. Good thing I currently have a small backlog of blog posts ready to go online. (G) God, I miss this series, though. It’s not just that it had a fantastic romantic comedy emphasis or that there was such amazing chemistry between the two leads, Dean Cain & Teri Hatcher. It’s all that and the fact that it was a more grown-up approach to the Superman myth, taking it out of the adolescent stage ofRead More →
