I'm going to drop New Avengers and Captain America, New Avengers is not going anywhere so I'll try New Krypton instead. I'm switching Captain America to trades.
I don't board every comic I have, just the sepcial ones (I can't bare to think of the full Miracleman run without them, after all the bloody effort of completing it). However I do bag every comic (2 comics per bag) and dare to say it... find that monthly activity of updating my collection very relaxing and special.
My LCS gives free bags for every comic bought, so the only real expense it's the long boxes, and I only have 6, so it's very little harm to the wallet. I'm more of a TPB guy, my problem it's the lack of the shelve space for the absolutes and omnibuses (I've become an addict to those editions).
Great Writing Ron, just great. I agree completely: Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, etc. you already have us (the Direct Market) please focus your efforts on the other people.
Gordon, you should read Isabel Allende's novel "Zorro: Comienza La Leyenda" it's quite entertaining, it's about Zorro's Origin, the author is from Chile, she has written other books like "House of Spirits", "Paula" and "Of Love and Shadows", as you can imagine the tone of the book is different than other action or hero books because is an action hero written by a woman.
I don't know if it has been translated/edited in the US, but it will be a good exercise for your spanish skills.
BQ: Definately Lost In Translation.
Ghostbusters is my favorite 80's movie (and probably ranks in my all-time top 5), but as someone posted that movie is more of an ensemble.

BQ: I'll eat... People, bugs creep me out.

@ Kory: Probably both... KIDDING.
BQ: Final Crisis
Most anticipated movie for me is The Dark Knight and in very very close second is the X-Files 2, I definitely want to believe.
Wanted and Hulk, I'll rent the dvd.
Oh... and here in Mexico we get to see Iron Man... today! Awesome!
