    That is a Micronaut action figure. It was a villain, one of three. On top was a glow in the dark brain. I lost an original, but later replaced it when they were rereleased. His name is Repto.

    ...you flip through the new 5E D&D MM and see that the minotaur is given an 18 STR and recall that in 3E it was 19 and in 2E it was 18.

    ...you read that and knew what "5E D&D MM" meant.

    When you were a young boy you would run home after getting off the school bus on the day you knew that the special Fall Preview Issue of TV Guide was to arrive at your house so that you could sit down and read it cover to cover in anticipation of all of the new shows.

    The young girl in me would always get excited seeing what shows might be interesting to watch that year.

    ...you believe that being depressed over the end of the new "Battlestar Galactica" is ridiculous, but being depressed over the cancellation of the original 'Battlestar Galactica" is perfectly justified.

    ...You see haystack sculptures going up all over your town for some Fall harvest thingy, and you think of the ones you'd do would be of R2-D2 ,the Death Star, or something else SW-related.

    ...you write a lengthy article on what style of Sonic Screwdriver Peter Cushing should've used in "Dr. Who and the Daleks", followed by an equally lengthy article on how Wilfred Mott is really Tom Campbell from "Daleks: Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.", following a UNIT-ordered mindwipe.

    Then again, are either of these ideas really over the edge? Or are there some valid reasons for either or both of these ideas? Has anyone else written anything about these? You know, with a bit of research and thought, I could put something together on this. Yeah, that's not a bad idea! I'll just...have...to...

    ...after watching "The Caretaker" on "Doctor Who", you wonder if the Doctor uses sawdust or some cleaning compound when someone pukes in the TARDIS.

    That was an awesome episode- "I'm the new caretaker John Smith but you can call me 'the Doctor' "

    When asked to do a business proposal for a class. You did one where you pitch the return of your favorite cartoon (it got me a perfect grade)

    Jeff, if you want to be 100% cooler, you should change your icon to 1980s Hordak.
