Turtle Soup

Poor Space Turtle. After a long day of hunting space scum he has no one waiting for him at home. Enter the blind date.

I received a lot of emails about the desktop background we put up last week. We loved it, you loved it, we should all get together and love and drink and orgy sometime. I guess you can expect more desktop backgrounds in the future because of the response we got. I'd like to point out one more time that I can't draw at all. This is all Joe's work. Whenever I draw something it either ends up looking like a penis or a stick figure with a penis. Honestly, I'm not kidding, I don't have penis brain or anything but it's like the ghost of someone's penis guides my hand when I draw. Little known fact here but I actually auditioned for a role in a Sam Raimi movie once. I walked in and they told me to pretend a deadite had seized control of my body and was forcing me to draw something on a pad. I drew a Necronomicon with a full blown erection. I lost the gig to some chick who went on to die in Evil Dead AND they stole my Necronomicon idea. Initially that movie was about an evil prosthetic leg, not a book. Basically alls I'm sayins' is that I made Sam Raimi and he owes me money.

On a more relevant note, I've decided to open up the reviews to suggestions. You can email us at reviewsuggestions@turtleonabus.com with anything you might want us to review. We'll pick the best ideas when our imaginations run dry, which is usually Wednesday-Monday.

The new review should be up in the next few minutes orrrrrr later tonight. I'm trying to leave at 6 to go buy comics. Oh man, speaking of time. Has anyone else picked up Iron Man on blu-ray? I popped it into my PS3 last night and spent 3 hours staring at his blinking unibeam. Turns out it was downloading the BD-Live cache onto my system and I guess Paramount didn't anticipate oh....everyone doing that at the same time? It took forever. I'm actually finally going to get to watch it tonight. Site update, comics, Knight Rider, and Iron Man. Thursday is going to be hard pressed to match today in awesomeness.
