POPSStep Right Up and Buy...The Holy Grail! FTA: My favorite two items are: An original TIE fighter model (with battle damage) from Star Wars (IV: A New Hope), and, even though it doesn't fit at all with anything else I've mentioned, a signed photograph of Abraham Lincoln. Anyone got $325,000 they're not doing anything with?

POPSWhere Does He Get All These Wondeful Steampunk Toys?? I admit to being rather fond (actually, enamored) with the entire Steampunk Genre. I am a fan of many of the stylings that have come from one pop culture type to another... Junk stores are doing booming business these days as people hit them up for old brass fittings, watches, horns and other things to modify and adapt. We went through a similar phase with Star Wars and other Sci-Fi things in the 70a and they returned in the last decade. Super Heroes were big merchandise money makers during the WW II years, the mid 60s, and then again the late 80s with the birth of the Batman craze following the campy antics of the 60s and the dark, Gothic feel of the movie series. Super Heroes came back in a big way with X-Men. This is what I have always heard that popular culture repeats itself every generation or so... Hold on to those Slinkys, Hula Hoops, and Slip n' Slide: we may be in for a wild ride again!

POPSProfessor Ticketed for "No to Empire" Bumper Sticker This is probably one of those misleading articles written by liberals. The cop was doing his job because the sticker was on the back windshield and we can't prove that that cop never ever ticketed other cars with bumper stickers on the same location, but about opposite political point of view. Here's the best part of their conversation. "I asked to get the spelling of his name and told him I’ll be doing a press release on this," Ovetz said. "And I asked him, "What if the sticker had said, Yes to Empire, would you have still ticketed me?’ " According to Ovetz, Officer Mitchell responded: "I don’t care if you’re a Star Wars fan, or not."
