Sign it, leaving your neighbors a comfortable window ... http://underpantsontheoutside.com/blog/2008/06/20/z-is-embarrassed-by-his-package/ I've got another Superhero Diary on the internet PHENOMENON that is Crave Online.  I really hope they get rich (and take me with them). http://underpantsontheoutside.com/blog/2008/06/13/superhero-diaries/ As some of you know, I work in the immensely gratifying profession of online ad sales.

Statistically this should be impossible, given how often I fly between Los Angeles and New York - there are always at least ten really attractive women on the ... http://underpantsontheoutside.com/blog/2008/06/10/dreams-dont-die-just-because-you-get-engaged/ Yesterday, the beautiful people at Crave put up the latest of my Superhero Diaries.  Before you click through, though, be aware that when it comes to comic book references, this one has a high degree of difficulty.
