Uh-oh. My standards are falling already…a spelling error? It’s become an INCOHERENT MESS! Just in time for your American Independance Day! Congratulations! ANOTHER YEAR OF STABLE GOVERNMENT FOR EVERYONE.

Troy Steele, the writer of the world’s most hair-raising blog, Blogger Beware, has finished the original 62 book masterpiece of R.L Stine, and he will be concluding this week with a retrospective… of his own retrospective?!

I have been trying to get other people to feel unreasonable excitement with me about Goosebumps and Blogger Beware for years now – the only twist ending I have been getting is one with threats of violence from loved ones. :/

And then the Romans and the dinosaurs were all wiped out by Asterix, as is my recollection of early human development. :D
