Well, not really an egg, but a plastic egg; the kind you find in toy stores, diners, and (some) fast food places. Saturday I took my daughter and her friend to lunch at a local Duchess (a local fast food chain in my area), and was checking out the toy dispensers that they have near the door (sometimes that have a Spidey toy in that arm-grabber device), and well — lo and behold — they did have a machine that dispensed Marvel-related toys.
So, for a buck I figured that I’d indulge myself, and wow, wouldn’t you know? I came out with a Spidey toy! Better yet, it is that classic John Romita, Sr. pose of Spidey clinging to the brick wall. There was another Spidey figure (also a Cap, and a Hulk, and perhaps a Wolverine), but I only had four quarters. Still, to hit Spidey on the first try I thought was pretty cool.
This is the place where I discuss all things Sacred and Profane. Stop by and check me out. Leave a comment (or not), as this is done for my own amusement. If you too are entertained, all the better, but that is not the motivation here. For I, am a...Writer with attitude! Comics, Sci Fi, movies, TV, Books, the Internet, Pop Culture, you name it. I talk about all of these things and more. These are the things that entertain me. I can only hope that some of them will entertain you as well.

Bob can I be you for a day? It sounds like a lot of fun and you get a lot of cool toys.
Reggie, you get the award for saying the funniest thing I’ve heard all year.
Interesting.
Years ago, I saw a dispenser of Marvel stickers based upon the trading cards from the early 90's.
I got Thanos if I recall.
