we're due for another 9 inches of snow here this weekend. thanks, punxsutawney phil. i miss going outside and reading a book while the cute japanese-american kids run around like in empire of the sun. except for the getting shot to death part, of course.
the comic book shop that used to sit on 41st and locust moved recently. i never used to get particularly good service from them at the best of times, so it was some reluctance that i agreed to let them mail me my books from their new location. as it turns out, my fears were not unfounded, as they have now gone 3 for 4 weeks in screwing up my order, this last week sending it to the wrong address. as i was saying to the brother, it doesn't seem like mailing someone a set of comics every week should be a terribly daunting task for a business. all i want are 1) all of the books i've ordered; 2) none of the books i haven't ordered 3) sent to me, and not my neighbor across the street. apparently, this is Too Much To Ask. fortunately, what should be opening in the location vacated by this store, but...another comic store. what are the odds. i gleefully called today to cancel my old order.
