that there's no Justice League of America to enter stage left, handily and readily solve all the problems, and fly away in glory.

No, this whole gigantic mess reminds me of the story about the teabagger who takes his girlfriend home and when they get to her door he says, "Hey Baby...how about a goodnight fuck?"

She replies, "O.K....Goodnight, fuck."

It's "goodnight fuck" AFAIC. We are over the limit and it's just all beginning.

1. Yeah, I keep waiting for a super hero too...

And I can't help but think that Godzilla was a prophetic metaphor for doom to come. Life and art forever imitating each other. My cell phone looks a lot like a Star Trek communicator... and the swath of destruction through Japan is eerily familiar.

:cry:

Prayers to Japan.

5. Glad someone said it.

I keep praying for Mothra to come and save them.

2. Too funny.

I spend much of my day watching Justice League cartoons in an effort to improve my mood.

It even kinda' worked.

3. "Wanna go out with a bang?" is the line I've been trying on the wife.
