Dave-El's Spinner Rack: Alfred Is Still Dead (Batman and Justice League)

 Welcome to another edition of the Spinner Rack where I post about new comics I most recently purchased.

OK, not so recently as these were from about 3 weeks ago.

First up is Batman#11 by Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez.

The Minotaur has brought increased wealth to the crime bosses of Gotham City. But at a brutal price that those criminal kingpins are no longer willing to pay.

The Penguin is particularly chafing under the Minotaur's ruthless and unrelenting grasp on power.  

Meanwhile Batman has his hands full with his ongoing war with Vandal Savage, the mysterious crime network ran by the Minotaur and and an attack by The Ōjō, the fatal female sword wielding assassin who can turn herself into ravens. 

(She was the one who led the attack on Bruce Wayne and Annika Zeller in their date/not a date in Batman#5.)

Poor Bruce Wayne has a lot on his plate and really could use the help of a Pennyworth right now.

Too bad Alfred is dead.

But the last page of Batman#11 offers an alternative.

Enter Verity Pennyworth, here to maintain the family legacy of service to the Wayne family.

Batman#12 will I presume offer more insight into this person but caution, I haven't read this issue yet.

But this brings me to an topic I want to address.

Alfred Pennyworth is still dead.

Alfred was murdered by Bane back in 2019 in a storyline written by Tom King.  Since then, King was followed by Joshua Williamson who was followed by Chip Zdarsky and now Matt Fraction.

And so far, none of these writers have delivered the "mind blowing, unexpected plot twist of the resurrection of Alfred Pennyworth". 

These being comic books, 7 years is a long time for a character to stay dead.  

"Seven years dead? This is coming out of your pay, mister," says a petulant Bruce Wayne.  

A  cover painting by Alex Ross
 of Alfred mourning the death of Bruce Wayne
who did not stay dead.

This is NOT the first time Alfred has been dead.

When Julius Schwartz took over as editor of the Batman titles in 1964, one of his first directives was to remove Alfred the butler who died saving the lives of Batman and Robin.

But then the Batman TV show went into production with Alfed the butler as a principal character so Julie Schwartz had to bring 'im back. 

Over several issues of Batman and Detective Comics, Batman and Robin were bedevilled by a super villian called the Outsider, a villain of remarkable psionic powers and an intimate knowledge of Batman and Robin's secrets. 

In a mind blowing, unexpected plot twist, the Outsider's true identity was revealed to be... (gasp!) Alfred! 

That relevation happens in "Inside Story of the Outsider!"  in Detective Comics #356 in 1966.  So Alfred was dead for 2 years.

His current death has lasted for 7 years.

And with the introduction of a NEW Pennyworth, how much longer can that lazy layabout Alfred continue to just hang out in his grave like he ain't got nothing to do?

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Just a quick note about Justice League Unlimited#20-#21.  I'm still enjoying Mark Waid's exploration of a near limitless playing field of super heroes and villains in a connected universe.

The knock down drag out fight with the Braniac Queen is an epic display of power that it resolved by a clever ruse from Ryan Choi's The Atom and the Red Tornado. 

The Amnesty plan is showing some strain where Lex Luthor refuses to act like a super villain on a short lease parole and insists on taking initiatives like he's Batman's goddam equal. 

It is kind of frustrating that Mark spends a lot of time plugging holes from previous events (Absolute Power and DC K.O.) and setting the table for the next big event.  

OK, that is that for my newest comics.

Next week, it's the Comic Book Retro 50! What comic books did a young Dave-El buy 50 years ago in August 1976? 

Two weeks after that, a look at a facsimile reprint of Batman#156 and the classic "Robin Dies At Dawn". 

Our Time In Exile Part Deux

This post is a follow up to a post from February of this year.

My wife Andrea received an anxious phone call from her brother.  He was very concerned their dad was not being quite himself.  

Sometimes he was very unfocused and even incoherent.

Calls made to him by Andrea and our son Dean had prompted similar concerns.  

Andrea's brother was going to be out of town for a week and wondered if we could stay with their dad at his home for awhile.

We did this following his health issues back in February.  Once more we would need to as we did then to take the measure of his ability to manage himself, to remember on his own to take his medicine in the prescribed amounts and times, stuff like that.

A couple of months ago, Andrea and I took her dad to the hospital after he fell outside, injuring his leg and taking a blow to the head.  

Except for some scrapes and bruises, the hospital cleared him to go back home.  

But that and whatever was going on now only serve to remind us that the status quo for Andrea's dad is not sustainable forever. 

So Andre and I moved in to her dad's home, to make it our home away from home.  

We did have to leave him to return to the Fortress of Ineptitude each day to do our respective jobs.  Her dad seemed to do fine for those hours without us.

Except for the one day we returned and his TV VOLUME WAS TURNED UP REALLY REALLY LOUD!!! 

For reasons I did not comprehend, he chose not to wear his hearing aids that day. 

For the most part, he seemed to do just fine.  His best hours were in the morning. He and I would talk about stuff before Andrea and I left to go to work and he was very clear and coherent.

As the evening wore on each night, he was less easy to understand.  I chalked that up to him being too tired to make sense and me being too tired to understand him. 

I did find it hard to make time for the blog which is why last week's posting was non existent for several days.

He is a very old man who is in remarkably good health for a man of his advanced age and his overall cognitive skills seem mostly unimpaired.  

He hasn't gotten involved in a war for no good reason or sought to upend decades of medical science to mess with vaccines or insist reflecting pools were damaged by vandalism instead of shoddy contractors so he's got that going for him.

Still as I said in February, his self sufficiency is not sustainable forever. 

And that is something we all worry about.  

Tuesday TV Touchbase: The Librarians: The Next Chapter and Batman: Caped Crusader

The Librarians: The Next Chapter is back for a 2nd season and so far, Andrea and I are very much enjoying this new slate of adventures.  

The season starts with 19th century Librarian Vikram, newly appointed Librarians Lyssa and Connor  with guardian Charlie working as a well-oiled machine against a swarm of mummies to recover a lost magical artifact.  

A smiling Charlie charging at the mummy horde, ready to smite them to dust with her sword is so damn awesome. 

But the team's effectiveness at dispatching mystical threats belies their personal struggles with doubt and fear, problems that rise to the forefront when the team investigates magical shenanigans at a high school experiencing explosions of hormonal rage.

From left to right: Bluey Robinson (Connor), Olivia Morris (Lysa), Callum McGowan (Vikram), Jessica Green (Charlie)

The 2nd episode of season 2 is “And the Tethered Wish" which is about a freed genie living his best life and seeding chaos wherever he does, granting random wishes regardless of cost or consequences.

Such as when Vikram in a fit of pique with his less experienced teammates wishes he was bound to a more experienced Librarian.

And ZAP! It's guest Star Christian Kane as Jacob Stone from TOS Librarians.  

Careful what you wish for. Vikram now has a Librarian partner he can't run away from.  

Not for lack of trying. Which gives us a lot of classic physical comedy from Vikram and Jacob as the invisible tether between them keeps yanking them back together. 

It never gets old.

The episode gives us... kind of/sort of... a team up between Librarians: TNC and Librarian: TOS.  Jacob had been yoinked from a mission with the classic team involving a tribe of Amazons. Lyssa, Connor and Charlie fire up the magic door to sub in for Jacob to complete that mission.

Which we do not see.

After the ad break, Lyssa, Connor and Charlie come back through the magic door to report that Jacob's team is fine, a terrible magic artifact has been recovered and Cassandra no longer has to be Queen of the Amazons, much to her disappointment.

Also Ezekiel stole Connor's watch. 

Hey, Dean Devlin, there better be at least some kind of tie in comic book or something to cover that Amazon adventure,OK?

Later this season, Lindy Booth will be back on screen as Cassandra. I'm squeeing like a fan boy for that one!

Speaking of guest stars, Jeremy Swift chews up the scenery as the rogue genie and hey, is that David Tennant's son Ty in an episode?

The TNC gang finds out that Peter Pan and Neverland is real.

And Charlie wears a dress.  

Dominic Monaghan is on hand this season as a recurring big bad, Merlin. This Merlin is charming and manipulative, definitely NOT to be trusted.  

Season 2 of The Librarians: The Next Chapter looks better than the paper thin low budget production that was season 1.

The world of the Librarians deserves to go on and I do hope TNT picks up The Librarians: The Next Chapter for a 3rd season.

_______________________________

Season 2 of Batman: Caped Crusader dropped on Prime recently.  While the creative minds from Batman: The Animated Series are behind this new series with an aesthetic that recalls the beloved B:TAS, storywise, Batman: Caped Crusader is very much it's own thing.

A film noir take set in the 1940's, B:CC is a more brutally violent, adult oriented version.  Unlike B:TAS which had to mindful of a kid audience, B:CC has no such constraints. People can and do get killed and a bad guys call for the death of "that goddam Batman". 

Batman's classic rogues gallery gets quite there makeover in this series.  The Mad Hatter gets gender switched as Hattie Tetch, a gossip mongering propogandist who tries to sell the public that crime boss Rupert Thorne is an innocent victim of a so-called "justice" system out to to destroy a good and noble citizen of Gotham City.  

Edward Nygma is no snivelling, giggling genius Riddler obsessed with puzzles; instead he is a hair trigger psychopathic punk cast in the mold of the mobster archetype James Cagney got famous for playing in the movies back in the early 20th century.

Then there is the Joker.  It's hard to get too excited over an appearance by the much overused Clown Prince of Crime. But the B:CC version is something unique.  There is the use of the classic Joker toxin that causes his targets to laugh themselves to death, leaving a corpse with a rigor mortis frozen grin. But the Joker himself is no cackling comedian of carnage. Not a lot of laughs or bad jokes, just a quiet, deliberate shadow of death pronouncing a grim judgement on his victims.  

As for the man himself, Batman continues to be a stoic humorless vessel of vengeance as he fights an unyielding battle against those who would harm Gotham. There are some flickers of humanity around the edges but this is a Batman with little or no time for anything beyond his unrelenting mission.

Prime dropped all 10 episodes of season 2 at one time but Andrea and I are taking our time to go through these episode one at a time. 

Batman: Caped Crusader in it's 2nd season continues to be a rather well made new interpretation of the classic Batman mythology.

Until next time, remember to be good to one another and try to keep it down in there, would ya? I'm trying to watch TV over here.  

 

Are You Stupid?

The question of today's post is "Are you stupid?"

We're gonna ask some voters in New Jersey. 

Let's ask Bonnie Chandler, age 64, how she intends to vote in the upcoming midterm election in the face of increasing prices at the gas pump and the grocery store. Mrs. Chandler believes that companies are deliberately keeping prices high to make Donald Trump look bad. 

“I’m going to vote Republican. I’m not a woke person. I’m not a communist. I’m not a socialist!"

Sounds like Bonnie's been paying attention to der Führer.

Bonnie Chandler will vote against her own self interests to deter made up threats of wokeness, communism and socialism. 

Bonnie Chandler, are you stupid?

Studio audience, please help her with the answer.

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

OK, when did this blog get a studio audience? 

Lauren DeGirolamo, a 34-year-old Trump voter, says  “I feel grocery prices are pretty much at level with where they were during Biden. I know some of the key things that I look for - eggs - have gone down."

Egg prices were high in the first place due to stresses on supply due to avian bird flu which has since been brought under control. (Although recently a shit ton of eggs were recalled for salmonella so we've got that hell to look forward to.) Other than that....

Grocery prices are NOT level with where they were during Biden but are in fact much higher.  And you may recall the guy you voted for did not promise to keep grocery prices level with Biden but bring them down.  

Ms. DeGirolamo intends to vote Republican this November.

Lauren DeGirolamo, are you stupid?

What say you, studio audience?

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

Seriously, why is there a studio audience? Do I have to pay them? Or feed them?  

Margaret Derkach, age 84, can see clearly what's going on in the economy.   “The cost of living, as far as homes, apartments and food - the necessities - they have gone up. It’s shocking, shocking!"

So there's hope for Mrs. Derkach, right? Well, maybe? As for her intention to vote this November, she is  "undecided".  

She knows that Donald Trump “inherited a mess from Joe Biden."  

Damn it, Margaret! On one hand, I feel you're so close to an epiphany. You can see the Matrix, right? That things suck because stuff costs too much? 

But on the other hand, you are "undecided" how to vote because the economy is something Trump inherited from Biden who has been out of office for nearly 2 years.

OK, weird studio audience that shouldn't be part of a blog, help me out here! What is the answer for Margaret Derkach on the question, "Are you stupid?" 

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

Wow! This studio audience is mean!  And maybe a bit hungry! 

I may need to get some food brought in.

Or reconsider my medication.

To be fair, the name "Donald J. Trump" is not on any ballots this November. But the Republicans who are on the ballots do need to answer for him.  They have capitulated to his every whim and completely abdicated their responsibilities to provide any kind of oversight over his godforsaken, misbegotten reign of chaos, cruelty and goddam fucking incompetence.

The path to why shit costs so much right now does not lead to Joe Biden but to Li'l Donnie Trump. 

1) Tariffs make shit cost more! Trump slaps tariffs on everything in a mistaken belief they're some kind of magic solution to save the economy when all they do is hurt the economy and the Republicans in Congress has done fuck all about that. 

2) The war Donald Trump started makes shit cost more! The war that Trump and his snivelling syncophants have NO idea how to run and NO idea how to end makes shit cost more! And the Republicans in Congress have done fuck all about that too! 

The same Republicans in Congress who are currently running to keep their phony baloney jobs by asking you to vote for them. 

And if you think voting for them is going to make things better when they are the ones complicit in making things worse?

OK, hallucinatory studio audience, say it ONE MORE TIME!

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

While the electorate is displaying extreme levels of stupidity, let's not think those same Republicans in Congress are off the hook for lapses in intelligence.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) recently said Robert F. Kennedy Jr. misled the Senator to get his confirmation vote to be secretary of Health & Human Services.

“There are guarantees that were given to me and guarantees that were supposedly going to be enforced by the White House. Among those were not to affect the (vaccination) schedule.”

So Senator Cassidy took the word of a known vaccine skeptic that the known vaccine skeptic would not fuck with vaccines?

I believe my imaginary studio audience would like a word with you.

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

Speaking of stupid and vaccines....

Li'l Donnie signed an executive order calling for  separating the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine into three different shots administered in separate visits.  

While signing this order, Trump made outrageous claims of  vaccines in amounts equal to soda bottles being pumped into little babies' bodies.  He's also still trying vaccines to autism.

der Führer justified his order based on such solid evidentiary basis of "people tell me" and "I believe".  

What do we need to tell Donald Trump?

"YOU ARE STUPID!"

So much stupidity, so little time.  

I think I need to lie down a moment.

Thanks to Nathan Layne of the Reuters news service for the quotes from New Jersey voters. 

Star Trekking In Black & White

 

Much like the mythology of Spider-Man did with Spider-Noir, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds ventures forth into a black and white world of light and shadow in "A Case of Chiaoscuro".

I gotta say that Rebecca Romijn certainly brings that film noir femme fatale smolder in classic film black and white.

By the time this posts, I expect I will have actually seen "A Case of Chiaoscuro" to find out what the heck is going on, why is everything in black and white?

Is film noir Pike's hair even taller in black and white?

As I am writing this, I have not seen the episode. Sorry but I'm still in recovery mode from the circumstances that caused this blog to go on a week long hiatus. (I'll cover that ground in a few days.) 

More film noir goodness with Una Chin-Riley, Uhura and M'Benga.

For a splash of color, here is the poster for a film called Femme Fatale (2202) which starred Rebecca Romijn and was by all accounts not very good. 

OK, so sorry for cheating out on the weekly Star Trek post again. 

I hope to get back to regular writing on this fershlugginer blog.

Live long and prosper, y'all!  

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Oh, one more thing. I snapped this photo in a local Wal-Mart parking lot recently,  

An NCC 1701 registery and a Starfleet command sticker? I may be wrong but I think this jeep might belong to a Star Trek fan.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

UPDATE: I have in fact now seen "A Case of Chiaoscuro" and I enjoyed it quite a lot.  

So did Keith DeCandido and you can read about it here.  

Movie Time: Plankton: The Movie

Welcome back to I'm So Glad My Suffering Amuses You.

The paucity of posting has come to an end.

And we end our low content mode with... Plankton?

******************************************

Last week, I wrote about the 2023 animated film Nimona which son Dean and friend Jan shared with Andrea and I while visiting the Fortress of Ineptitude last week.

We finished that movie fairly early on that Saturday evening so we made the night an animated double feature.

Which brings us to this week's movie post.

It's...  Movie Time!   

Today's post is about (and I am not kidding about this) Plankton: The Movie is a 2025 American animated musical comedy film based on the television series Meet The Press SpongeBob SquarePants.

This movie was co-written by Mr. Lawence who is also the voice of Sheldon J. Plankton.  

Seriously, I really watched this. I, a 63 year old man, watched Plankton: The Movie.

Plankton attempts yet again to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula. 

He is, of course, unsuccessful.  

Dejected, he returns to the Chum Bucket.

Normally, the Chum Bucket is a sad, empty, decrepit place.

But not this time.

Karen the computer wife has turned the restaurant into a successful Mexican-themed chum restaurant with an active customer base. 

Well, this seems a like a good thing.

Except...

Donald Trump Plankton thinks it's a BAD idea mostly because it wasn't HIS idea. 

Plankton expresses his displeasure by burning the place down.

Which leaves Karen supremely pissed off.  

Karen removes her Empathy chip and transforms into a super sized multi-headed mecha and goes on a rampage to take over the world without Plankton! 

Not exactly sure what the hell brought that on, Plankton turns to SpongeBob to figure out what went wrong and why Plankton and Karen are not on the same page anymore.

Channeling his inner Sigmund Freud, SpongeBob hypnotizes Plankon to relive his experienced with Karen.   

Via flashbacks, we see that Karen's original form was a calculator connected to a potato in a petri dish as part of an experiment from Plankton's childhood.

Later at Bikini State University, Plankton upgraded Karen to her current form and they collaborated on a plan to rule the world with a freeze Ray.  This plan is thwarted by a human child on the beach. 

<Boy, this post is going on a bit long. Sorry!> 

Back in Bikini Bottom, Plankton overhears Mr. Krabs say that the Krabby Patty secret formula is what will help him take over the world. Krabs was just engaging in some joking hyperbole but Plankton takes it seriously.

Thus is born Plankton's obsession with stealing the Krabby Patty secret formula.  

Plankton and SpongeBob retrieve Karen's original parts from Bikini State University in a plan to regain control of mecha Karen.  It doesb't work and Karen just absorbs those parts to grown another head.  

This is a job for the Gal Pals: Sandy, Pearl, and Mrs. Puff, where they install Karen's Empathy chip into Plankton's brain. This leads to him having a revelation.  

<Is this post still going? Did I forget how to edit? > 

It's Thanos vs. Avengers time as mecha Karen splits off into different sections to fight the Gal Pals while Spongebob and Patrick goes to mecha Karen's central engine room which is fuel by potatoes.

Plankton, feeling empathy for the first time, confronts Karen Prime to win back her love.

Karen challenges Plankton's sincerity by offering him the Krabby Patty secret formula. 

Plankton actually rejects the formula, citing the greater importance of regaining Karen's love.

<Finally! The movie is over and so is this post! Wait...> 

Karen's takes Plankton back and now the two are teaming up to take over the world.

Karen's giant mecha form crumbles because Patrick has eaten all the potatoes.  

SpongeBob proclaims he's "a sucker for a love story" to which everyone agrees and celebrates.

<Are we done now?> 

Mr. Lawrence, SpongeBob SquarePants veteran and the voice of Plankton, originally conceived this story as potential half-hour special titled, "Karen Takes Over".

With urging from Nickelodeon, Lawrence pitched his idea as a feature film.  

And thus we got Plankton: The Movie. 

It's been a while since I've sat down to watch anything SpongeBob related but I found this movie to be mostly enjoyable with an interesting spin on Plankton's whole deal.  And while Plankton is the Star, the feature makes good use of SpongeBob in his faux Germanic Sigmund Freud persona psychoanalyzing Plankton.  Great work from Tom Kenney.

And strong vocal performances from Mr. Lawrence and Jill Talley as Plankton and Karen elevate the rather silly proceedings. 

And Plankton: The Movie also has some rather clever musical numbers as well.  

All told, Plankton: The Movie is far from any kind of high art but it did make for some good dumb fun on a late Saturday night.

<The end.  You can go now.> 

Tuesday TV Touchbase: Hudson & Rex and Late Nite With Seth Meyers

And we’re back! 

Well, kinda/sorta.

I’m still on a blog break but I thought I would poke my head in a minute to look around.  

Normally the Tuesday TV Touchbase is where on Tuesday I touch base on what I’m watching on TV.  

Since things are a bit weird on the blog this week, on this Tuesday I will touch base on what I’m NOT watching on TV.

TUESDAY 
TV
TOUCHBASE

 

Hudson & Rex

After cycling through seasons 1 through 7 repeatedly, Up TV recently began airing episodes from season 8 of Hudson & Rex. 

Getting new episodes of a show we like would normally be cause for celebration.

But Andrea and I will not be watching season 8 of Hudson & Rex.

Hudson & Rex is a series about a crime fighting police dog named Rex and his emotional support human, Charlie Hudson, in the Canadian city of St. John’s, Newfoundland. 

Andrea and I came to Hudson & Rex for the dog but we wound up staying for Charlie, played by John Reardon. 

John Reardon has the most beautiful, piercing eyes.  And my wife Andrea agrees with me.  

Anyway, as of season 7, John Reardon had to step away from the show to address a diagnosis of cancer.  While John took time out to go through treatment, Charlie was written out as going to Mexico to save his brother from some trouble he gotten into.

Back in St. John’s, the supporting cast of Sarah, Jesse and Joe took up the slack of being Rex’s emotional support human and taking care of the paperwork after Rex solved the week’s major crime.

Those episodes were weird seeing people like Sarah saying lines you know were originally written for Charlie.  But Andrea and I were OK as long as we knew this was just temporary and Hudson and Rex would be together again.

But…

John Reardon’s treatment for cancer went well and he was ready to return to work.

The producers of Hudson & Rex decided to go in a different direction.

At the end of season 7, the gang in St. John’s Major Crimes Unit hear that Charlie Hudson was shot in Mexico and he fell in a river, his body washed away. Charlie is missing, presumed dead.

So the show brings in actor Luke Roberts as Mark Hudson to be Rex’s new emotional support human for season 8.

To quote Rocky from Project Hail Mary,  “Rocky hate Mark.” 

There are stories and videos online that identify Mark as Charlie’s brother. No, he is not.  He just happens to have the last name of Hudson. 

While Charlie just sort of fell into the role of being Rex’s emotional support human, Mark is actually a trained K9 police officer so he’ll have a different dynamic in his relationship with Rex yadda yadda yadda I really don’t care.

Andrea and I are giving season 8 of Hudson & Rex a miss.

After season 8 aired in Canada to negative fan backlash and declining ratings, the producers of Hudson & Rex got smart and fished Charlie Hudson out of that Mexican river. 

John Reardon and his most beautiful, piercing eyes will return for season 9 this fall in Canada.  Those episodes will not hit American television until next year. 

Late Nite With Seth Meyers

Seth Meyers and his A Closer Look segments are a much appreciated source of political humor. 

So why are we NOT watching? 

‘Cause it ain’t there too be watched!

Late Nite With Seth Meyers is on a hiatus.  

It is not uncommon for the show to go into reruns for awhile as Seth and his family take a vacation in and around Labor Day.  But this break is longer than it has been in the past.

This hiatus for Late Nite With Seth Meyers began August 1st and the show will not return for new episodes until September 21st. 

OMG! What if Donald Trump or his cronies do something stupid and/or illegal?!?!  

Like  sign an executive order to fuck with a safe and proven regimen of vaccines that will only make life worse for everbody?

Click here for more about that.

Who’s gonna expose and mock shit like that?!?!? 

51 days gone?!?! What are you doing to us, Seth Meyers?

Next week I’m back with a Tuesday TV Touchbase on shows I am actually currently watching.  

• The Librarians: The Next Chapter
• Batman: Caped Crusader
• Celebrity Wheel of Fortune

New episodes of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds will be covered in my Star Trekking posts.

As for the blog, we’re still in low content mode until Saturday when I’ll be back with a new Movie Time post. 

See y'all on Saturday!

Remember to be good to one another.
