The bright side of the Washington Mutual situation

Paying with a WaMu debit card today was a great conversation opener.

 

When I was getting my coffee this morning, the cute barrista chirped "Oh!  What do you think of the WaMu situation?"  And I allowed that I was worried at first, but it had been bought, so I doubted I was in trouble.  And then we talked for a bit on what a pity it was, because WaMu had such nice service, especially after other banks, who had bad service, or were jerks.  Wells Fargo was mentioned, and we agreed that it was the worst bank around.

Honestly, if I was single, I bet I could have gotten her number. 

So for those you out there who really want something to facilitate opening lines with potential dates, I'm willing to lend you my WaMu debit card, for a very reasonable rate.

Ohboyohboy! A Bruce Timm style character generator!

 I've stumbled upon a character template graphics system in the style of the famous Heromachine, only using templates in the style of the DC animated universe.  This is something whereby one can seriously waste away an entire weekend making superheroes.   the only disadvantage is that the site is not in English.

A thread of people making various heroes.  this has some massively fun depictions.  It not only has some recognizable superheroes, but also fantasy characters as well.  It even includes the obligatory outraged post by an annnoyed "real artiste". 

Currently, this recognizable trio is my favorite:





this is going to totally blow my weekend.
