Kinda related: I just caught up on reading the comic “Killadelphia,” which is absolutely brilliant. One of the running themes throughout the book is, how much of the moral failure of the Founding Fathers, particularly their racial and sexual blind spots, was a product of their era versus inherent personality flaw. If they were given immortality, by the present day would they have changed their stances and viewpoints, or clung to them?
Welcome. I became a voracious comics reader during the pandemic (thanks, Paperback app), and prestige indie horror was my default genre of choice. Killadelphia (and its spinoff Nita Hawes's Nightmare Blog) are among the best ongoing series I've ever encountered, and one of relatively few comics to deal in genre stuff and explicit social issues equally well without feeling heavy-handed, preachy or out of touch.
Jay Lerner-Z, you are the only person making an argument in this thread that makes any sense at all. Thank you for being reasonable. I agree with you on all points.
South Florida said: Greer Garson was such a beauty
Greer Garson maintained a home in Dallas (high-rise condo) in her later years. We lived in Dallas for a time, and once saw Miss Garson exiting the downtown Neiman-Marcus flagship store, probably in the 1980's. It was a surprise to see her, and yes, she was a great beauty and a great actress.
Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., the current and one of our best U.S. Presidents, is likely to announce next week that he is running for a second term as leader of our country.
