Album Cover Alert: Nishiki Station

I have been listening to Nishiki Station's first album lately, We Could Not Live Without It. My favorite song has to be the title track for it has a groovy beat despite the depressing lyrics. "Black Lady In Red Stilettos" has to be my next favorite song followed by "3D Memories".

Now if you are wondering where you can find Nishiki Statation's album, you can find it the same place that BookSteve's Library and Adventures In Nerdliness found their rare albums.

Valentine's Day 2009 Aftermath: Spider-Man 3 Valentine Mailbox

Stores have their Valentine's Day items marked down at half price today. The local Wal-mart mostly had Hannah Montana and High School Musical Valentine cards. People were standing in the way so I was not able to see if they had anything related to superheroes or not. Alco did have a lot of the Spider-Man 3 Valentine Mailbox with twenty cards and pops (they were really thin cherry-flavored suckers). The two ends of the box are the same. The copyright date on the bottom is 2008 so I am not sure if these were actually released for last year's Valentine's Day or not.

Here are some pictures of the Spider-Man 3 Valentine Mailbox (excuse the blurriness):

Valentine's Day Countdown 2009: Poison Ivy Kissing Robin

Poison Ivy was played by the alluring Uma Thurman in Batman & Robin (1997). The scene of her kissing Robin (Chris O'Donnell) was pretty hot at the time. As an added bonus, she fights with Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone).

Valentine's Day Countdown 2009: Superman Kissing Ultrawoman

I was not going to do a Valentine's Day Countdown but then an idea hit me the other day. I know there's only about a week to go but I needed to write something instead of working all the time. The following scene is from Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman with Dean Cain as Superman kissing Ultrawoman aka Lois Lane played by the still beautiful Teri Hatcher.
