You must choose, but choose wisely!

There is nothing worse then having $50 to spend on Amazon.com. I don't normally splurge on myself, so after getting a $50 gift card from a vendor at Lotusphere, it took me a few weeks to decide what to buy. I always make fun on my kids going through the same torturous choices when they are at Toys R Us trying to spend the gift cards that they get.
So after a few days of surfing, I came across something that I have been wanting to get for some time now, "The World's Greatest Super-Heroes" by Paul Dini and Alex Ross. I've looked at this book several times in Borders and love the artwork in it. And what I've read of the stories within, it's a pretty solid volume.
So now with the weekend weather remaining cold, clouds and snowy, I am really hoping this thing shows up in the mail today. It left Pittsburgh yesterday, so hopefully it will make it the 70 or so miles west today! Wifey has scrap booking planned for the weekend, so I think I'll be able to get away with getting lost in some Super Hero mythology.

I love that kind of stuff. I have every issue of DC's Who' Who, and most of Marvel's Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe. I haven't kept up with comics since the early 90's, though.
