Day: February 25, 2006

People have been asking me whether I was in attendance. No. Originally I had no plans to go because I was going to be driving up to Cheektowaga this weekend to bowl in the PBA Pro/Am with Ariel and my brother, Wally, and his kids. But blowing out my right knee made that inadvisable. So I could have gone, but I figured either it was going to be incredibly underattended or incredibly overcrowded. I was pretty sure it was going to be one of those two extremes, and I wasn’t wild about facing either one. So I skipped it. From what I hear, it was the latter.

At the moment, I’ve got “The Fugitive” on so I can watch Andreas Katsulas in one of his more memorable non-G’Kar roles as the One-Armed Man. Meantime I’m rereading old issues of “The Champions” to refamiliarize myself with that team in order to write a one-shot Hulk vs. the Champions story for an upcoming Hulk annual. Meanwhile I’m working out by hand (because that’s how I always work on novel plots) a revised ending for my “Battlestar Galactica” novel since what I had was too similar to some recent episodes (the episode short descriptions I had for the rest of the season didn’t include several key plot points that overlapped). Furthermore I’m doing knee-flex exercises to help heal my blown-out right knee that I did some dámņëd thing to while I was bowling a few weeks back.

Coming out soon on DVD, speaking of bowling: “The League of Ordinary Gentlemen,” a marvelous documentary about several key members of the Pro Bowling Association. Distributed by Magnolia Pictures and definitely worth watching.
