Something stupid, something serious

Found these guys on Saturday: First Appearance Iron Man, Power Man, and Batman (with "leg up on a stump" power!). Yay!
Now the serious news... Wife got a call yesterday. Her aunt was in the hopital since last week with abdominal pain. Yesterday they finished all the tests and announced she has advanced liver cancer. They don't thing treatment will help. It's a huge blow and a terrible sursprise. This woman is a real pure soul, one of those rare people that never said anything bad about anyone, never hurt anyone, and is always happy. So of course she gets this while other random assholes still wander the Earth causing pain and misery. It goes without saying that it's not fair, and the wife is very upset about this.
Last night we went to visit wife's sister-in-law and her husband. They're finishing work on the new home they bought and they invited us to come check it out. We were also returning my brother-in-law's car, since mine is finally fixed. Also, wife wanted to tell her sister about their aunt in person.
Their place is really nice, just a few blocks from water. We went out to dinner for Mexican food, then came back and watched Goodfellas, which was a random pick, but great fun to watch again.
