Christian Bale is my favorite Batman, too.

I'm hoping I can fix the futon either today or tomorrow. It's a cheaply-made one that was masquerading as a quality piece of furniture. It has finger joins (think nested "W"s) and cheap glue and started coming apart and then split. I'm going to glue it, clamp it while the glue is drying, drill some pilot holes for either wood screws (or drill all the way through for small carriage bolts, if there's room), and I have a strip of metal that I'll also drill holes in to match the ones I drill in the futon frame for added support. If it works, awesome! Saved myself a ton of money. If it doesn't, no worse off than I am at the moment and I'll start putting away a little each week to buy a solid wood futon frame from a different furniture store.

And it was on sale!!!

I'm glad the bird you helped will be OK. We sent one up to the bird rehab center last fall and they had to euthanize it because it broke its elbow .

I'll go check out your review.

Duct tape will fix just about anything. We once reattached a bumper with it when I was in high school.

The mosquitoes are a bit frisky, we get the regular ones, plus the salt marsh ones. The salt marsh ones are huge and really loud. Luckily, I have some pretty good repellent (DEET-free, I'm allergic to DEET) and they don't really bother me that much most of the time anyway. It's a huge plus working on the coast, the sea breeze kicks in around 2 PM just about every day and is usually stiff enough to keep them away.

I'll keep an eye out for it next time I go game shopping. I need something that I can play when I have to give people breaks in the entrance booth at work that I can put down and pick back up again without having to wonder just what the heck I was doing.

I miss my futon being a functional futon and not a platform on the floor. Reading, gaming, and watching TV all need back support to be comfortable.

Oh, being broke is a way of life these days! I spent $100 bucks on a cordless DeWalt 20V drill, but I needed one to do maintenance around the property here. And I have to admit, I like buying tools almost as much as I like buying games, lol.

What system is My Fantasy Life for?

I don't play many PC games, but I could so see myself getting addicted to those sales if I had the hardware to play them.

Interesting read. I have to say my favorite Batman movies are the Dark Knight Trilogy with Christian Bale, though. Just a  personal preference. Adam West, although I enjoyed the TV series a lot when I was a kid, is just too campy for me.
