Hi Mike,
Thanks for the FDK!
After running through almost the entire first season, I needed a break.
This plot bunny ran across my path and I started chasing it. As a result I fell behind on writing House of Luthor. It wasn't until I had a majority of this story in beta that I was able to finish writing House and have the beta done and barely made it in time to post on schedule. If I hadn't finished House on time I would have delayed posting until it was finished because I made a promise to my readers way back at the beginning that I wouldn't start to post a story if it wasn't finished. I feel that it would be very unfair to my readers to start a story and not finish it.
I think you will find it an amusing diversion. As you said, this is DEFINATELY an alternate universe.
I'm trying something different in this one. I hope that you and the rest of the readers don't get too confused. We will be hopping around.
Keep in mind that Herb is relating a story and his audience is participating. There will be questions and comments.
