  13. @joshgreenman Different Green Lantern -- GL of an alternate universe. NOT a member of the GL Corps shown in Ryan Reynolds movie.
  14. @JackDobbyn @TPCarney I sense a topic for a great seminar discussion! ;-)
  15. Talk about holey-er than thou!! (GULP!!) RT @nhkillion Today is National Donut Day - for everyone but Mayor Bloomberg
  16. @GPollowitz @bethanyshondark @jpodhoretz Well, if you are what you eat, I guess..uh, never mind. Let's leave that one alone...
