Misty water-colored memories...
So, someone asked elmo to fix something, and I was reminded of this issue of Justice League of America. I believe it was the issue wherein the satellite was constructed.
At some point in the story, Batman or someone says they need a physicist to fix something -- I think I read this story in one of those little Signet paperback collections from the 1970's -- and the Atom is standing right there. Ray takes umbrage at this suggestion that they send out for a physicist. He says to Batman something like "Hey, Mr. Detective, I'm a physicist."
This came to mind when someone asked elmo to fix a problem in one of my entries. I mean, do people think I'm so stupid I can't delete a comment?
Of course, this is an overreaction. There are many reasons people think I'm an idiot. I wish it were my ability to manage weblog entries. But I also realized something. There was a show called "Dream On." The main character's life would be illustrated by his memories of his child spent in front of the television. Something would happen to him, and we'd see his thought process remembering some tv show.
Apparently I do this with comics. Something happens. I remember a comic book scene. For instance, I was attacked by the Fatal Five, and I instantly remembered the Suneater story. No, seriously, I'm just curious if anyone else finds themselves remembering comics scenes in that fashion.
