Faster Than a Speeding Bullet, More Powerful Than a Locomotive...

--it's me, hitting the minibar at Comic Con!







My seatmate on the plane was the always demure and empathy-sharing comedian Jim Norton, a veteran road warrior who came prepared for the five-and-a-half hour flight with a neck pillow, blindfold, and wheelie luggage while I, a Comic Con virgin, had to nap the old-fashioned way, with my droopy head nearly snapping like a poppy off my neck-stem. We both agreed that the pasta entree was pretty damned good, a model of concord the Congress might want to emulate in tackling the "debt ceiling."

Now I must shower so that I will be fresh and provocatively shiny when I go out to "check out the scene" tonight, one of those tricks of the trade they don't teach you at the Columbia Journalism School.
