Captain America: The First Avenger – A Quick Review

Saw it with my 10 year old daughter just now.

Her reaction to the teaser trailer was: “Is that…Black Widow? Want! Want to watch NOW!!!”

Sorry About The Slow Week

My apologies to all my regulars for the lack of content. I see I’m still getting about five hundred hits a day, and that just makes me feel bad at “failing” you.

Nothing is wrong, thank G-d. The house is standing, both our jobs are fine, and the kids are great (the boy is nine months ans just started Cheerios!). My new site techcitement is slowly building in readership, and we’ve gotten some cool stuff to review.

The reason for the lack of content is more along these lines – my life is so full right now that I’ve not had time to read anything new. Most of the stuff I have saved already is Metal Men, and to be honest I’m a bit sick of them. How many times can you point out that Doc Magnus is a dick before it gets old? And I think the site metrics support my findings. No-one ever finds this site based on searches for the Metal Men (a distressing amount of people find it via “camel toe”, though).

After six years though, I’m not giving up on this site. I honestly love doing this. I just need a day or so to build up a stockpile. I hoped that would be this week, but I didn’t get that much out of it.

Still, I hope to have content for you on Monday.

And for those who can’t live without me, I’m on Google+, Facebook and Twitter (as @typolad).

Thanks for your patience.
