No, no, nonoNO!

Robin Hood stole from the government and gave to the poor. I realize that "he stole from the rich to give to the poor" is more catchy, but it's wrong. GYAH. This exercise in attempting to set the record straight has been brought to you by "A Bug's Life" and a preview for the Disney version of Robin Hood.

In other news, I am holding, in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers, a bunch o' loot:

  • The Stepsister Scheme, by the handsome and talented [livejournal.com profile] jimhines.
  • Definitely Dead, a Sookie Stackhouse True Blood novel by Charlaine Harris. Yeah, I've gotten hooked on these.
  • the Ultimate Hulk vs Iron Man: Ultimate Human graphic novel. Because I'm a big ol' nerd and I had a coupon for 30% off.
  • Ender's Game #3.
  • Buffy the Vampire Slayer #22. Of course, I haven't actually read one of these since #12 or so... I am woefully behind on my comic reading. And it's not getting any better.
  • The Invincible Iron Man #10 and holyshit is that a needle heading for his eyeball on the cover??? Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

    Why, yes, not!Harry comes by his mad needle fear as a result of me projecting. Why do you ask?

    Well, look what would have happened to our own Founding Fathers had the War for Independence gone...badly. "Our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor" wasn't just an abstract thing to them. So, yeah.

    Yep. According to the powers that be in England at the time, the founding fathers were traitors to king and country. The Tories remained loyal subjects of their sovereign.
