Well, after all the entries including the words 'panties in twist,'
concerning Pinky and the Brain, mentioning Acme brand items, and a
few more that a lot of you cam up with (Great minds, my friends,
great minds!), here's this week's Top Ten:

10. The Florida recount is still underway. (Rom129@...)
9.  Have YOU ever heard of the Mighty Latverian Army? (martin@...)
8.  Lack of pie  (XTREME557@...)
7.  Doom scoffs at your question. Doom will not be rushed. Doom will
take over the world when he is good and ready, but for now, Doom
desires waffles.
(Parallax2@...)
6.  Nations leaders just can't bring themselves to surrender to a guy
in a green skirt. ( RikoGrafX@...)
5.  Reruns of "Friends" take up most of Doom's time
(paulwind@...)
4.  "I could take over if I really wanted to."  (Kliv7@...)
3.  He keeps getting outbid on doomsday devices on eBay.
(ScottJM27@...)
2.  Two words:  Metal wedgies.  ouch...  (94key@...)
1.  Who wants the world now?  (Chitcat28@...)

MMMMMM....ARTICULATED PLASTIC - SIMPSONS ACTION FIGURES & INTERACTIVE
ENVIRONMENTS
The next wave of talking Simpsons figures are here! Wave IV, like the
previous waves, features Intelli-Tronic resistor technology that
allows the figures to talk when they are connected to their World of
Springfield playsets, allowing them to come to life as they say one
of their several random phrases. This series may include: Casual
Homer (in underwear), Itchy & Scratchy, Lenny, Ralph Wiggum, Patty,
and Groundskeeper Willy. Each figure stands approximately 3" to 5"
tall and comes with exclusive accessories. Blister card packaging.
http://store.yahoo.com/wizardworld/simacfigcasw.html

These detailed environment playsets bring to life your Simpsons
figures! Each environment comes with an exclusive figure and has a
reader that identifies each Simpson figure and then plays back a
random phrase specific that that character -- with over 40 phrases
total! Choose from Bowl-A-Rama (with Pin Pal Apu) or Comic Shop (with
Comic Book Guy).
http://store.yahoo.com/wizardworld/siminenwaviv.html

FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE LIVE-ACTION TOMB RAIDER
Take your pick of Lara Crofts! Lara Croft, globe-trotting Tomb Raider
of video game fame, will be exploding upon the summer movie scene
this July, and here's the action figures that bring star Angelina
Jolie home to your toy collection! Croft is depicted in four
different outfits from the film, each with arsenal of weapons and
accessories, as seen in the Tomb Raider movie! This series may
include: Lara in Shorts, Lara in Motorcycle Outfit, Lara in Arctic
Outfit, Lara in Cambodia Outfit, and a Stone Monkey Warrior. Each
figure stands 6" tall and is articulated. This item is sold only in

material that will NEVER appear anywhere else. This is your chance to

new 5-issue monthly series that will debut in March 2001.
Click here!

INTERACTIVE STUFF

Starting Thursday afternoon, a number of significant improvements to
the Buy and Sell functionality of the site will go live, so here they
are:

1. Utilizing your comments, we have made an overall streamline of the
entire buy and sell process. The amount of steps necessary to
complete transactions have been reduced. This is good.

2. We have eliminated the "Ship Days" field from the process,
because, well, we couldn't figure out what it meant either. Now you
simply write your shipping terms in the dialogue box with your
payment terms.

3. We changed the layout of the "my buy/sell page" to make it easier
to read. It is now sorted by community.

4. It is now MUCH easier to browse the buy and sell offers, 'cause we
added "jump to's." Looking to browse X-Men? Now you don't need to
click the right arrow 3 billion times -- just click on "U-Z" and off
you go! Now go pick up that mouse you threw out the window.

5. We have enabled SSL (Secure Socket Layer) for all credit card
transactions. This is good too.

Also a reminder -- effective December 21 -- the seller will be
charged a little amount of money for completed sales only. There will

TOP TENS
Top Ten Reasons Superheroes can't get dates:

10. Women Don't Believe Plastic Man When He Tells Them His Superpower
(HAVOK1520@...)
9. Rouge's good night kiss is a killer. (Dew9993@...)
8. Superman wearing his underwear on the outside is a major turn off.
(tiggersnow_10@...)
7. "I am Doom, and Doom commands you to go out with him!" isn't a
very good pick-up line. (princedarric@...)
6. Constant picking of wedgies from tights turns girls off.
(rduckie20@...)
5. It's embarassing having to wait in front of a telephone booth
while your "date" changes for the evening. (TskMastr0@...)
4. Would YOU date someone with a name like, "the
Creeper," "Nightcrawler,"  "Swamp Thing," or "the Whizzer?" I don't
think so... (EricIdling@...)
3. The ladies are still skeeved out by Batman's whole ward in short
pants thing. (manos_x@...)
2. She-Hulk's last date is still in traction.
(chris@...)
1. Spidey, of course, is afraid they might die. (Justjoust@...)
