- Had a day-job argument about one of my pet-peeves: being told that I shouldn't argue about a pointless test just because it's easy to do. #
- Just because something doesn't waste a LOT of time doesn't mean it's not still a waste of time. >:( #
- A commercial that said that, if I don't have an iPhone, then I don't have an iPhone. I was scared until I remembered I do have one. #
- @DDog I only watched the #Deathnote anime, not the manga. Starts a little slow, but then gets amazing. #

- @jchutchins And spend all that money on face polish? No thanks, not for me. #
- @odin1eye We've all been there, man. It's like a rite of passage. Except since there's no record, you have to keep doing it over and over. #
- .@jchutchins Destro should have gone with the matte finish. Still badass (Ask Dr. Doom) and way less upkeep. #
- @jchutchins Well, can't have everything. Where would you put it? #
- @JeffProbst I'm here! Watching live just for you! 😉 #survivor #

- Been dealing with a lower back spasm. The worst part is not the pain, but how it turns ordinarily trivial activities into big ordeals. #

Death Traps – A short story by Christiana Ellis
In the Summer of 2010, my good friend Jared Axelrod asked me if I was interested in writing a story featuring Dr. Mercury, a marvelous super-villian created (or perhaps just discovered?) by his lovely wife J.R. Blackwell. The story would be part of a collection, offered as a birthday gift to her. I seized the opportunity, but what kind of story to write? After considering and rejecting several ideas, I eventually decided to try merging Dr. Mercury with a preexisting story idea I had about a super-villain engineer. The result turned out far different, (and far better!), than I’d ever imagined.
Dr. Mercury - A Spirit of Chaos
So here is the result: “Death Traps” written and read by Christiana Ellis, character of Dr. Mercury created by JR Blackwell.
