<p>I just wanted to protect relationships with friends and family by writing what I wanted without consequence.  In doing so, however, I wasn&#8217;t truly expressing myself.  So from here on out, I&#8217;ll do so boldly and without reservation.  If I offend someone, I&#8217;m sorry.  It isn&#8217;t my intention.  Rest assured, however, that the style to which you&#8217;ve become accustomed shall not change.  I&#8217;m just not hiding behind some lame pseudonym which requires way too much explanation anyway.</p>
<p>So here I am.</p>
<p>Michael Moreno.</p>
<p>Your friendly neighborhood webcartoonist.</p>
<p>Still looking for an artist for my real comic books.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s go piss off my mom!</p>

Even <em>The Batman Movie</em> will do! Cesar Romero played the Joker and they actually put white makeup on <strong>over</strong> his moustache! It was awesome!</p>
<p>Now don&#8217;t get me wrong. I loved <em>The Dark Knight</em>. I thought Heath Ledger provided a phenomenal performance! And when you break it down, they&#8217;re two completely different Jokers. But I LOVED Cesar Romero&#8217;s portrayal! If they made a CR Joker statue or bust I&#8217;d already own it.</div>

<p>::sigh::</p>
<p>Thanks to Warner Brothers &amp; DC for having better things to do than to sue me.</p>
<p>Thanks to Adam West for not making me put on bright tights so he can &#8220;boff&#8221; me.</p>
<p>And thanks to Batman for not using the Anti-Parody Bat Brain Melter on me.</p>

<p>Whenever someone calls in with a question about divorce he always gives the same advice.  KILL HIM/HER!  and that&#8217;s why.  He&#8217;s quite passionate about this, too!  You should check out his website <a href="http://www.handelonthelaw.com">www.handelonthelaw.com</a> and download some podcasts.  Great stuff.  I actually think he&#8217;s nationally syndicated now, so you may be able to find a local station on the website, too.  I&#8217;d check for you, but I&#8217;m way too lazy tonight.</p>
