Life in the Middle
This is my blog. My intention is to add to this as close to daily as I can. Please stop by, do some reading, and be sure to add a comment. I'm needy.

Comic Books Revisited
I take comics from the 40s-70s and retell the stories. I lace the retellings with cheeky commentaries, point out some of the socio/political/pop culture aspects of the era, and add lots of scans of various panels so you can see what I'm describing. The stories can be wild, wacky, crazy, goofy, and are always just plain fun. I focus on DC Comics like Wonder Woman, Lois Lane, Superman, Jimmy Olsen, Batman, and others -- everything from Golden Age through Silver Age to the early Bronze Age. It's updated daily. Want a laugh? Check it out!

MacIdol
An online music community full of talented songwriters. Thousands of free songs for your ipod here. This site runs things a little differently. It's not run by ratings, nor can you comment on individual songs on that song's page. Instead, threads are started about individual songs in the forum, under Tunes. You can join the site to get an artist's page and/or join the forum to enter the discussions. This site is free.
My Monthly Column

The Spinner Rack
Every month I write a column for the CGC newsletter. I primarily cover the wacky trends in Silver Age comics, but don't hold me to that. This link will take you to the listing of newsletters. Just click on anything in 2008 (or December of 2007) and look for The Spinner Rack or my name under "Feature Articles" on the left. I hope you enjoy the articles!
