Still, only one of the right answers has been guessed.

Additional hint: It is raining and for some reason, that often seems to cause lots of little millipedes to start making their way into my old house. Pretty gross.

11. Over the years, birthday celebrations have included taking a helicopter ride, being part of a scavenger hunt downtown while dressed up as superheros, and having a big "Batman" party
12. It's raining outside, so I'm a bit concerned my house will soon be infested with millipedes

Well, now all the answers have been guessed, so now both correct answers have been guessed. But not in combination with each other.

Here's another hint: I really did count all the word balloons each character had in the "5 Years Later" Legion. I also did this for the Baxter run, Crisis on Infinite Earths, Legion Lost, and for the first number of years of post-crisis Superman. Does that sound as crazy as I think it does? I'm pretty sure it turned out to be Jo Nah who had the most in the mentioned Legion run, though I believe Braniac 5 might have been close behind him.

Not correct.

Hint: I am halfway through volume I of Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus, and I am very impressed (although by now I'm more than halfway through, but you get the idea)

No. I have just finished editing "The Adventures of Captain Strong - Scourge of the High Seas" Episode 50, and the story still isn't over yet.

And IB gets it.

It's true that I can pretty much name every episode of Doctor Who, but I could only manage a handful of writers and directors - not even close to all of them.

And I've only celebrated my birthday (which has just passed) in the USA (first 25), Canada (#26), and Australia (ever since then).

You are up, IB.

Belated happy birthday, Xben. How was your birthday this year?

Would be fun to spend every birthday in a different country, but I think there's also something special about spending it with valued family and friends.

Let's see...

Which 2 of these songs aren't on my favorites list?

a) Black Balloon, Goo Goo Dolls
b) Hold Me, Savage Garden
c) Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Green Day
d) Our Lives, The Calling
e) Sandalan, 6 Cycle Mind
f) Another Day, Rent soundtrack
g) If You're Gone, Matchbox 20
h) Michelle Branch, All You Wanted
i) Don't Stop Believin', Glee Cast
j) Pare Ko, The Eraserheads
k) Raise Your Glass, Pink
l) Bon Jovi, Have A Nice Day
m) You're A God, Vertical Horizon
n)Double Vision, 3OH!3

I'm so out of touch with music these days I'll go with the two songs I recognize:

g) If You're Gone, Matchbox 20

i) Don't Stop Believin', Glee Cast

[I'm assuming this is a cover of the Journey song.]

Yes, it is a cover of the Journey song. Both the original and the cover are in my IPod, but only the cover is on my "favorites" playlist.

One correct answer has been guessed.

"Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is a recent addition to my favorites list.

I could also start a new thread when I announce the winner. I'd like to, actually - I started the original thread a long, long time ago but have never gotten the chance to start one of the new threads smile
