In TDK Bruce had the scar Ra's gave him in BB. It's a brief shot when we first see him on the yacht.

So... who else will be reading (or re-reading) A Tale of Two Cities before July 20th?

I know I will!

A Tale of Two Cities is actually one of my favorite books ever. I probably will.

Considering it wasn't stitched together well, yeah.

I have a nasty raised scar across my right shoulder from running into barbed-wire outside of McDonald's about 6-7 years ago. I didn't get stitches even though I should've so it healed funky and now I've got a sweet-ass scar with a lame-ass story attached to it. It's fun to freak people out with fake stories, though.

So anyway, yeah, it would realistically be that prominent 8 years later if he just left it.

haha they always somehow kill the fun out of books don't they? I think I would have very much enjoyed Kite Runner if it weren't for my damn English professor who demanded the whole thing should be examined and themes be exhausted.

The worst authors to me were the ones who wasted so much space describing every inanimate object in the room like they mattered at all when they don't in the slightest. No, I don't f'ing care about the thread count in that sheet on the bed in the corner of the room that is only referenced in one paragraph, thank you very much. :suicide: No, dead author, you weren't as clever as you thought you were with all that.

Actually, they were. They got paid by the word count.
