Being the comic buff that I am, I saw this before it hit mainstream news, but here it is with a picture. In Civil War #2, Spiderman takes of his mask and reveals his identity. Interesting. I wasn’t expecting that. I thought he’d side with the lawbreakers. Oh well.

Gnome Home
Those that know me know that one reason I love Sean Hannity is because of the absolutely hillarious Roaming Gnome commercials from Travelocity. Well, The Gnome has a Home! On the net that is.
