The Adventures of MegaSmurf and Splotchface

Anyway, it turns out that in his youth, MegaSmurf was the son of a watchmaker, and took great joy in taking watches apart, and then putting them back together, until his father (in a rather unclear mode of reasoning) concluded that Einsteinian physics had rendered the entire watchmaking profession obsolete.

"Perhaps that would be so if we were all moving around at 90% of the speed of light, father," says MegaSmurf. "But in our universe, where the Newtonian approximation is more than adequate, watch repair remains a valid and worthwhile trade."
— The Watchmen Files

Funny stuff. Turns out that some guy I don't know is reading Watchmen for the first time and posting his stream of consciousness thoughts about it. Which, of course, is a wonderful thing to read because it's like you're vicariously reading it for the very first time through his eyes.

And, naturally, it makes me want to really read it for the very first time again. But since I don't have a time machine, rereading it will have to suffice. If you're pressed for time and you have a sense of humor, don't skip The Watchmen Files. It's like reading Watchmen, but with more sarcasm.
