Heavy Melon
by New Belgium
I'm going to attempt a beer review just to add more beer content to Vingle.
I grabbed a New Belgium Heavy Melon because I thought it'd be made with Citra hops, and taste similar to CitraDog by Thirsty Dog Brewing. It may have Citra, not sure, but nothing like CitraDog. But still good.
This is my first fruit beer; I've avoided them up until now. Heavy Melon isn't too heavy on the melon - I mean it's certainly noticeable, but you still know you're drinking a beer. Which is exactly what I want to know.
This beer goes down easy, and is only clocking in at 5% ALC. So when you drink it down too quick (you will), you won't get tipsy too quick.
I recommend this.

Regrettable Superheroes:
Dynamite Thor
Flipping through the pages of The League of Regrettable Superheroes (by Jon Morris) I stumbled across another loveable loser.

Not a Thunder God and not suitable for the post 9/11 World, engineer Peter Thor (not just a name, but a serious problem if you have a lisp) was the world's leading expert on explosives. Peter proved so proficient he perfected a way to render himself invulnerable to explosions. He'd go into battle with sticks of dynamite tied to his waist like a belt, and use them to blast up, use them to blast forward, use them to defeat the villains of the day. Property damage and civilian casualties were never covered in the comic.
Dynamite Thor came out before the Atomic Bomb, I wonder if he would have been invulnerable to its blast?
What do you guys think? If we updated Peter Thor would he have a place with The Avengers or the Justice League? Or even a reoccurring role on The Tick?
It's Limerick Day
I thought, since it's Limerick Day, it'd be fun to share Superhero Limericks. I'll kick it off with one I did Not write (because I have to get ready for work, no time), but I'll catch up with a JimTurpen original later.

Gotham, the city of mess,
People always in distress,
Then out of the dark,
Where criminals lark,
