My problem is I didn't spend enough time in the library when a highly-ranked school was paying me to do so. But that's neither here nor there, and I really don't want to go wherever it is. And I'm nowhere near nerd fringe culture. I don't do "furry," or "cosplay," and have only dabbled in role playing games. I'm a mainstream nerd. Unfortunately, that means I also don't do intarweb dating, so I guess I will have to write your splooshy roommate off as the one who got away. Tell her that it was better to have loved and lost ... however that goes. It's Shakespeare, I think; but not Hamlet, so not worth remembering.

As for Loeb ... hmm. I think TLH/DV and Hush are very stylish achievements, but storywise, they're no Dark Knight. I read one or two arcs from B/S and left it alone. I want to pick up When in Rome sometime, since I kind of like his take on Selina Kyle. I also like the completely opposite take on her from Miller, Newhart, and Cooke. It's all good. Catwoman is hard to do wrong. (Though Pitof and Berry certainly proved it's possible.)
