Hi folks,


Been laying low, Hoping against hope that someone...ANYONE would contribute to the Geek Fantasy Costume Top 10. (sigh) I guess I have to do everything around here. So I'll finish that sucker up in the next day or two.


In the meantime, DIG THIS:




That's a clip from last week's Supernatural, a show I enjoy but only recently have I begun to go out of my way to see it. This clip is one reason. See, Sammy and Dean have to get the rings of the Four Horsemen in order to stop Lucifer. Death's ring was last on the list and the hardest to find, necessitating a deal with a rogue Demon named Crowley, played by reason number two: Mark Sheppard, a minor deity in the Geek pantheon best known for his role as Badger in Firefly, and Romo Lampkin, Baltar's lawyer on BSG. Anyhoo, Death is surprisingly cooperative as he resents Lucifer's control and freely offers Dean his ring.


Ah, but there's more, see when our heroes tracked Death (played with appropriately eerie panache by Julian Richings) to Chicago, they arrived just before a horrible storm Death had planned to unleash that would have killed nearly 3 million people. However, as seen above Death not only gladly offered his assistance, he even called off the storm and spared Chicago and why?


BECAUSE HE LIKES THE PIZZA!


As a lifelong resident of the greater Chicagoland area, I can't help but experience a surge of civic pride. Death, one of the oldest and most powerful beings in the Universe, as old as God apparently, spared the lives of 3 million people 'cuz he loves him some deep dish:


SUCK ON THAT, NEW YORK!



Now everyone, please rise:
