By the way, yesterday I was at an Acura event (yay, Klout ... although I was already scheduled to be there for work when I got the "perk") where they had a S.H.I.E.L.D. car from the movie, which I snapped a pic of (<=== over there). I noticed that the color scheme for the car was sort of Hawkeye-esque ... as far as his classic costume ... which further churned this stuff up in my head!

Oh, and while we're on hawk stuff ... the picture over there ===> (click for a larger version) is one Daughter #2 snapped the other day of one of the hawks that nest on the top of our building taking a break on our window ledge! Pretty cool. I'm amazed that bird didn't take off when The Girls got up close for a pic, but I guess it hung out, since she had several shots of it. If you note (on the bigger image) the bird's foot has a band on it, so it's one of the ones released down here to help control the pigeon/rat population. The birds seem to like our highrise just fine as a home (I guess it's just another high cliff to them), and to judge from the occasional pigeon-parts that end up on the ledges, they must be doing a decent job.
Anyway, I wanted to get this stuff dumped out of my head, and figured the greater L.J. universe wouldn't mind me doing it in here! I wish I was posting more, but I've been so insanely busy with this new gig (I'm averaging under 4 hours of sleep out of 24) there's been dang little opportunity. I'm even backed up seven books that need to get reviewed, and I'm beginning to wonder where I'm going to find the hours for that (of course, you'll pretty much be the first to know when I do crank out some).
