I haven't watched a serial chapter in over a month, and I'm due to watch one. With that said, I decided that next weekend I'm going to start watching this serial. I just like to type, then read what the hell I type, so I thought I'd try to do something different, and it'll be different. You might consider yourself lucky, and you might wonder about that lucky hogwash, and I'd tell ya that my high school teachers never got any written reports from me, so yeah, you're gonna get lucky! *L* Of course, feel free to put any remarks of your own, 'cause this won't be a Gravy blog, and I'm sure it'll never be mistaken for one. Let's start with a meaningless poll ... Edited by Stony Brooke da Mesquiteer, Apr 15 2009, 05:02 AM.

A big Yes here. Love to hear what Stony's got to say about Tracy and lovable ol' Pa Stark, one of society's "sweetest specimens." |

Of course good old lovable, sweet, kind and Honest Pa Stark voted yes. I'm sure you will point out what a good family man I am, providing my sons with good solid careers in the family business. |

I voted "Yes", then tried to read his first post that was just explaining what he was going to do. Read it three times and it still doesn't make sense. This should be fun! |

I don't need them. You hired my dead son Slasher for your gang, and he was the best you had.

Picking off Stark's sons over the long haul was a bit of a change from the usual generic henchmen and/or candidates for the masked villain. Still, the only time I ever felt for the baddies was in the Phantom. Here and there the henchmen came across as sad working stiffs who even tried (unsuccessfully) to save each other's lives instead of just smirking and setting death traps. |

They were going to, Mr P...but the Professor's work ethic was too rigorous. |

Oh Bat. Oh Bat. Whatever will we do with you? Cliff, I liked that about The Phantom too. The henchmen in Gangbusters are interesting too, but I can't say why without spoilers. Then of course there are the henchmen in The Spider Returns with their cute little paper hats -- for once a little fun in a henchman's life, but the Gargoyle quickly puts a stop to that. |

Who was the one bozo that voted that they didn't want to read about the great exploits of Lovable Pa Stark? |
