if you do like Ducktales, I would recommend Don Rosa's graphic novel The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck and some of hi and Carl Banks' other work that led to DuckTales

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Life_and_Times_of_Scrooge_McDuck

you can get a digital copy so no need to worry about the rona

Please preserve/restore your sanity by following this goon’s advice and check out The Life and Times of Scrooge. It’s truly fantastic.

And since we’re also talking a bit about the NES game, you might enjoy this thing I did years ago about a prototype of the game.

I have to say fellow goons, i'm frustrated as hell. Everything is hosed and no amount of Witcher books, games, and shows will cover up how pissed i am.

quote:

Speaking to CNN Tuesday evening, the former Vice President said the two “had a good conversation.”

“I laid out what I thought he should be doing. I laid out four or five specific points that I thought were necessary. I indicated that it is about taking responsibility, and being the commander in chief, taking on the responsibility,” Biden told “Prime Time” host Chris Cuomo.

“He was very gracious in his conversation. So it was — the President — I had an opportunity to tell him what I would have done, what I thought, the lessons we learned.”

quote:

“[Trump] asked whether or not we would not discuss the detail of what we talked about, just saying that we had a good conversation,” the Democratic frontrunner said.

After their call on Monday, Trump praised the conversation to reporters.

“We had a really wonderful, warm conversation. It was a very nice conversation,. We talked about pretty much this — this is what we talked about. This is what everyone’s talking about.”

The president said they spoke for about 15 minutes. “He gave me his point of view and I fully understood that. And we just had a very friendly conversation.”

The 2020 election year blows.

Yeah, as I've said many times I'm pretty sure that Joe Biden is the exact same kind of malignant narcissist that Trump is. You see it most when he refuses to admit to making a mistake even when doing so would be to his advantage.

They could probably get along swimmingly, just like with Trump and his dictator friends. "A perfect phone call. Just perfect."

Court order allows for absentee ballots requested by a certain deadline to be counted by the 13th.
