For reasons unknown to me, I've decided to start a non-gaming blog called "The Most Beautiful Things," in which I pick the single best example of something amazing and fawn all over it. First up is the bass line from the Temptations' "Ball Of Confusion." I might next write about salads. Actually, I have no idea what I'll write about. But come on along if you like, and feel free to suggest ideas for things to write about.

It's at The Most Beautiful Things.

Nope, it turned out to be the best comic book quote ever. Shows you what I know.


You get into Anthrax's version? or Love n Rockets?

PS. Totally agree on yer choice for important comic book line. And the runners-up. Want to add another Moore line from Saga of the Swamp Thing Annual #2:

Arcane has been defeated by Swamp Thing, his evil soul sent back to the hell from were it came. However, Arcane has had a measure of triumph, as he had cast his niece Abby's soul down to hell previously, leaving Swamp Thing no choice but to go to hell himself to retrieve it. While there, he encounters his old enemy, his body massively swollen with hatching insect eggs. As Swamp Thing turns to continue his search for Abby's soul, Arcane cries out "how many years have I been here?" Swampy's reply, delivered, it seems, with no small measure of satisfaction:

Spoiler:
Since yesterday.

Thanks to Mike Sterling's Progressive Ruin for posting this, so I wouldnt have to go look it up.

I limited myself to one Alan Moore line. Thankfully, it wasn't close which one, but still.

The most adorable thing my wife Evon ever said (and be aware that she's younger than me): "Wait, that Love & Rockets song's a cover?"

Anyway, I like both the Anthrax and L&R versions, but Widespread Panic did my favorite cover of "Ball of Confusion."

P.S. Anyone can post on my LJ site, so feel free to have this conversation over there too.
