  • Biollante: probalby, but 59 percent is considered a "blow out" in political terms, some people are on shaky ground right now, there was evne a conservative pollset that worked for Bush warning people that if Republicans are against things like gay marriage in the near future, they would endure catastrophic losses, I don't know if it's this political cycle, but the paradigm shift already happened a while ago

  • PTF: It's a magic hammer. It doesn't have to make sense. :)

  • Steveinthecity: I wonder why it's always readers that catch mistakes with art, powers, plots, continuity, uniforms, etc. and not the creators and editors?  I hope they're not secretly laughing at us. ;)

  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

My "late" introduction: Omega
« on: October 24, 2008, 04:20:00 PM »
It is unbelievable that I have never introduced myself on this board. :o
I must have been caught up in the excitement and just started posting.

Where I live, on Cayman Brac, Cayman Islands, we get comics near a month after it's release date, and only one or two stores supply them.

Archie was just a name until I read my first issue, and I laughed. Never before had I really enjoyed myself page after page after page and that's how the obsession began.
 
Sorry for the late introduction, again I was very excited when I found this board, caught up in the moment.

I can't imagine living on an island that only has one high school. Having lived in the city all my life, I'm used to there being high schools all over the place.

Welcome aboard. Great to see the ever-growing international membership on this board.

Believe it :)

Three primary schools and there are no middle schools. You move from grade six, primary, to grade seven, high school.

There are three islands:
Grand Cayman: 75 sq miles, 7,500 persons
Cayman Brac: 12-14 sq miles, 1,800 persons
Little Cayman: 7 sq miles, 500 persons

Some persons aren't even aware of the islands existence. We are almost invisible on the map and most times we are identified by Grand Cayman. You don't know how annoying it is for people to say that you are from the "Grand Cayman islands".
We are ruled by Queen Elizabeth and the Queen's Ambassador is our Governor and we are proboably the richest Caribbean country out there.
 

That was just some interesting information if anyone is curious.  :)

P.S. If you are trying to get a better understanding of the island, Do not watch Cayman Went, it will only muddy the water.

The high school I went to was 7-12, and there are several others like that around here as well. Not a lot of middle schools, at least not in the city school district. Some schools around here are also K-8.
