Awesome, Mego seems to be getting some attention lately. Scott and I were contacted by ABC recently and they wanted to use Mego figures in an upcoming TV series, I hope they skate by their legal issues and use them.

I love Sally Forth.
One of my favorite "must-reads" in the comics section of the newspaper.
Guess I relate to Ted since we seem to be around the same age.

I used to love "The Incredibly Stange Film Show back in the day.

There was a time when you couldn't win a bloody micronaut on Ebay because Ross was on a collecting bender.

HA! That was pretty good.

I resisted naming our kids after comic characters, but I did want to name our dog Krypto.

I wanted to name my daughters after Lois and Lana. It did not happen....

Haha. I sympathize.

My wife and I went back and forth about baby names and couldn't agree on anything. In desperation one night, while going through the baby names book, I came across the name Shelby.
To this minute I can still vividly recall what happened next:

ME: "How about Shelby?"

WIFE: (without missing a beat, breaks into song) "Shelby (She'll be) comin' around the mountain when she comes..."



We named her Emily. LOL.

All 3 of my children are named after TV characters/actors.

My oldest is Kirstie after Kirstie Alley
My middle is Will after Will Robinson of Lost in Space
My least is Endora after Endora on Bewitched

When speak their names in public, people know where we picked them out.
