Did I miss the wifebeater joke?
Spousal abuse humour isn't funny, Chiclo. And it’s indicative of personality type, I’m told.
Is that why the internet has been totally scrubbed of that SNL sketch where the tv show Cops shows up to a domestic violence call where Hillary Clinton had been whooping up on Bill?

Maybe my personality was shaped by reading too much Dr. Seuss.

Is there a way to block someone on here so I don't have to see their idiocy anymore?

Thank you valiantdude! This podcast was great! I always enjoy hearing Jim’s personal experiences. I’ve listened to numerous podcast about him, but this one may be my fav alongside jmatt’s. Incredible job well done!

Thanks vdude, interesting interview. Even though he's done a number of these types of interviews in recent years, this one is different since I think it's the first time he's done one with a hardcore pre-Unity Valiant and Defiant fan. A lot of the previous interviews mostly gloss over Valiant and Defiant years.

One revelation I didn't know was that Ninja-K was a Shooter idea. I do like Shooter's version better, where the K stands for '11', meaning he's reached the 11th level in Ninjitsu, as the highest level in traditional Japanese martial arts is 10th Dan. That actually makes sense and is cool. The whole Kindt thing was alright with Ninja-A, B, etc. but it started getting hokey and overdone with Unit-Y and all that. I could be wrong I didn't read all the Kindt stuff. Still a good effort at trying to make a stupid name usable. Always been curious about the Ninjak and Bloodshot stuff Shooter did for VEI, hopefully he'll put out the plots and whatever for people to read.
