Mickey?

We may not have to wait for the Supreme Court's decision on copyrights to see Mickey Mouse in the public domain. See, he's apparently on a 700-year-old church fresco in Austria. Ok, so we know it's not Mickey, but the resemblance is truly frightening.



Over on eBay, Jim Lee has sold himself to raise funds for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, and the going price for Jim Lee is $6,700. The CBLDF needs money for the appeal to the Supreme Court of the Castillo Decision.

The taping of the Victoria's Secret special was disrupted by anti-fur protesters. They targeted a model by the name of Gisele Bundchen who has just become a spokesmodel for fur designer Blackglama. Said the model: "I'm the biggest animal lover in the world, I was just doing my job." PETA, on the other hand, says: "Gisele has blood on her hands and blood money in her pockets."

The wonderful hubby-Eric taped SpongeBob for me yesterday, so I was able to see a few more stories. No Mermaid Man yet. And I don't think there will be more reviews of Spongy, too much work...
