If you’re wondering what happened to ‘Rama Rampage this week, Graeme is out celebrating his fifth wedding anniversary … so congrats to him and his wife. Rampage will return next week.
If Graeme was around, he’d probably have a lot to say about this and this, as well as this, and there’s no way he would have missed this. In fact, you can probably head over to that last one and make up your own Graeme-like commentary. And props to Kevin for getting that interview.
Before jumping into the links, I have an update on one of them … earlier this week I had a post with the headline “Will work for food … or free stuff,” about the Loners Food Find contest over at C.B. Cebulski’s blog. The contest is now over and the free stuff has been claimed by ten lucky winners. The location in question was Carney’s in L.A., and Cebulski shares a story about seeing someone famous there:
Funny Carney’s story that involves comics… I was there a number of years back after San Diego and we were having an early chili-infused lunch before jetting off to LAX. The place was practically empty and suddenly from behind me I hear, “I’ll have a chili burger and a beer, please.” It was a voice I was all too familiar with, so I turn around and sure enough, there he was… Stan Lee!! The Man himself having beef and a beer at 11AM!! This was before I was at Marvel so I had never met Stan before. I was starstruck! So we waited around and introduced ourselves. Stan was so cool and gracious and spoke with us a bit then took pictures. We almost missed our flight but it was worth it! So there’s another reason to go there… Stan Lee eats there!!
OK, so now that I’m hungry for a chili burger, I’ll leave you with some of the posts that got people talking this week here at Blog@ …
