Terrorist bait.

The monorail episode was epic. Maybe one of the greatest television moments since Lucy and the candy conveyor.

When I was growing up, there was a neighboring family who had a mentally retarded daughter. For some reason she was obsessed with comic books - I think her folks bought her every one, every month. Her mother gave them all to me and my brother, when the daughter was done with them.
