Don't you just love having a job? Personally I don't but its what you have to do to live. I thought my job was the best until recently.
I watch 3 kids that live in a rich family, doesn't sound to bad so far. I love them to death but I think I have to quit soon. Why? I'm getting sick all the time and it's not even funny.
I used to just get sick maybe once a year if that but now it's all the time and I don't know why. I know when you watch kids you tend to get whatever they have but not like me. For me I would get sick during the summer and about all winter long but whatever I have now its the last straw.
My body for some reason can't handle it. I'm 17! I shouldn't be getting sick like that. My family said its time to get another job and I agree with them. I personally think if I don't leave soon I might get something I really don't want.
Well off to find another job I guess and hopefully they will let me take off ever Saturday or at least work evenings that day if I can. Life sucks but what really sucks is when you have to hunt for a new job in an economy that's not doing good. Wish me luck!

Villain's that caught my eye #2
One of my all time favorite crazy villains is Arcade. You just can't hate the guy.
I first got introduced to him in The Thing issues # 1-3. First impression when I saw him.... this guy is awesome! I mean look at him! He has the white suite on with a big bow, orange hair and a crazy look on his face.
He has an amusement park called Murderworld which he brings his victims to. They have to go through the maze like park to try and find there way out and don't forget to not die! Arcade is a Genius in a number of technological fields. I wonder who would be smarter him or Tony? I probably already know that answer but I think it's something interesting to think bout.
His main enemy's that I know are the X men. I never read an issue yet of him going against them but I have a set I plan on getting this weekend. I also saw him with Spider-Man that looks like this. It's an older issue but I hope to find it.
It seems like I tend to like the crazy heroes and villains and sometimes I don't even know it until someone tells me for example Hank Pym (aka Ant Man, Yellowjacket, Giant man, and so on). I heard he goes crazy and has to get locked up! Why Hank! I wish he would of just stayed Ant man but Scott Lang was until he died and then Eric o' Grady took over. I think personally Eric is the funniest and a really cool Ant man. I shall do a review soon on him. Anyway Arcade is cool so if you don't know who he is check him out. Trust me is totally worth is and if you find yourself at the gates of Murderworld I wish you luck my friends, your going to need it :P Here is a picture I drew of him! Shows how much I like this crazy guy :D

Hero's that caught my eye #2
Superboy! His one of my all time favorite heroes. I got introduced to him but at first was like ummmmm I'm not sure if I'm going to like him. I gave it a shot and less then 30 later was back at the comic stand asking for more. The issue I read was when he was first introduced in the Superman comics. I really don't care for superman. I find him boring but that's just my opinion. I then got into his own comic series.
His a punkish teen clone of Superman that is learning things the hard way sometimes. The leather jacket and buzzed hair go perfect since he was created in the 90's. I don't like newer Superboy with the longer black hair, regular S shirt and jeans. Not the way I like him. Bring out the jacket, sunglasses, and buzzed hair and were good to go.
Dc has really gone Down hill lately. It's not as good as it was years ago. I see them falling in the future unless they get there crap together. Superboy and just a few other superheroes I actually like. The new 51 Superboy I didn't even touch because I heard all 51 issues were bad.
If you want a good read check out the 90's Superboy you won't regret it. I'm trying to collect them all right now and when I get a few more I'm going to read them all at once. I can't wait till I have them all!

Villain's that caught my eye #1
You can't like comics if you don't have heroes and villains you find interesting. It would be pointless and not even worth your time. I said before I really never cared for the fantastic four until my friends down at my favorite comic shop told me to read The Thing which was amazing! From there I got fantastic four unthinkable and so on. One villain everyone knows is Doom.
His name says it all! I've read a few issues with him in it and his what I would consider not really a scary villain. Maybe that's because I never really saw him really mad, but until I see something really cool or messed up I probably won't change my mind. His name makes me feel like we should be scared of him like his the big cheese of us all. I say eh :P
I'm not really sure who else is the fantastic four's villains other then him. Until then that's all I have to say. He will probably be brought up again in the future when I learn more but until then hang in there :D

Comic shop's in general
As I said before I'm still kind of new to the comic world. What shocks me is its almost a year and I know what I would consider a lot but to others very little. One thing I know for sure is what comic shops are good and bad.
For just about every comic shop you expect the people to know what the hell your talking about. If you wants certain issue they know where it is, have it or can get it for you, if you have a question about a superhero or villain they know everything about it, stuff like that. There is probably only 2 comic shops I went to that I got to know or been to a few times that the people know what the hell there talking about.
I've been to a comic shop called DC comics close to my house about 5 times and 4 of them were really quick visits. The people are really nice and love to help you out which is awesome. It's kind of tiny but that doesn't bother me. The one comic shop I know well is called C & C's comic cave. They know what the hell there talking about. Ask them a question and they know it right away. I've been going to this shop for awhile now and I really like it. There shop is inside a place called Saturday's market which is cool. There hoping to get a shop soon and when they do its totally my new hang out joint.
On the other hand there are some shops that don't know anything at all. The first one that comes to my mind is Dimension X. This shop is also located in Saturday's market as well. I went to this stand for a bit until C & C's comic cave because they had a shit load of comics 20 for 5 and 50 for 10. Sounds like a good deal but trust me you literally have to dig for some good stuff if you can find some. They told me awhile ago that C & C's comic cave had crap and there stand was cheaper so at the time I believed it. I was buying some of the 20 for 5 at the time and this guy agreed with him. He said this " Yea that's right. Dimension X is probably one of the best comic shops ever. The other comic shops in this market are pieces of shit. If you want some good comics you've got to come here. I've been going here for what.... 2 1/2 years and I'm still coming back for more comics." ........ Yea surprised I remembered that but how could I not. The guy sounded pissed and looked like he was going to kill someone. The owner Jason agreed with him, shook his had and the guy left saying he would be back next week.
Now remember this, I didn't know that much about the other shop until I went to it a few times back and forth from D to C. I had a lot of comics I wanted and C ( just going with that) had almost all of them and cheaper then D. I stopped going there and was glad. Occasionally I went there to ask if they had an issue neither had and when I asked ( this is funny) the guys looked at each other, shook there heads laughed a little and said we don't know what your talking about.
What the hell! If you have a comic shop you should at least know something about them. I asked about Ant man, marvel zombies, secret invasion and marvel fairytales. They didn't know anything. I bet if I asked them about batman they wouldn't know who the heck I was talking about or even flash. Another shop didn't know what I was talking about and if they did it was all wrong. They had high prices so I didn't buy from them.
I don't know much about comic shops but I do know this. If you don't know what your talking about and are just selling the stuff for money you need to get the !$#* out of the comic industry. Your just effecting everyone else and making them look bad. My recommendation don't go to Dimension X if you live near then. It's not worth your time.

Hero's that caught my eye #1
My friend landshrksattacks told me I should do blogs on heroes I discovered from reading my favorite heroes comics that caught my eye. The first one that I thought of was Wiccan and Speed.
I first found these two guy from reading the secret invasion. I only had a few issues at the time but they stood out right away. I didn't know who they were at the time but I did a lot of researching just to find out there names. It turned out there the son's of the Scarlet Witch which is awesome!
Out of the two I really like Speed. I always liked the idea of having super speed and running all over the world really fast like Flash or Sonic. The sliver hair is a good touch and I'm a little jealous of his goggles. I always wanted a pair to wear around my neck everyday but never got the chance to buy one yet. Also I always wanted sliver hair. Your probably thinking what the heck that's old people's hair but I think personally its cool. I would want that and purple eyes if I could.
My friend thinks Wiccan is cooler but I'm always saying Speed. His hyper and full of energy. Wiccan on the other hand seems like the cool and on top of things guy which isn't bad. Personally I always enjoyed the loud and energetic heroes for the most part.
Well after finding these two I wanted more comics of them so I got some young avengers and now I'm trying to get my hands on young avengers children's crusade. I just can't wait to read more about
them!
If you haven't checked out this blog sight you should.

Star Trek, new to this noob
I absolutely loved the new remake movie but I know others that would argue with me for hours probably.( not going to say any names :P ) Then my friend introduced me to the tv show Next generation. I watched one episode and I was like WOW!!!! It was really good.
Watching a few episodes here and there I started to like it more and more. I then watched a few episodes of voyager and the original 1966 Star Trek but I didn't like it as much as Next Gen. but they were still good. Would I consider liking it more then the movie....yes but I will say something about both. The show shows more adventures with the crew and the enterprise which is great. I got to see other alien races in the show and all different kind of problems the crew faces in space. On the other hand the more is more up to date, has action and the graphics are really good. Just looking at the next movie coming out soon makes me more in a Star Trek mood! It looks really good and I can't wait to see it when it comes out. I'll still like the movie but the next gen. tv series is my fave so far.
I a sucker for nerdy stuff but I just can't help it. So for my friend that argued with me about the movie you won, but know this. It's not about hating it because its not like the tv series, it's about trying out new stuff and giving it a chance. :)
