While Heroes seems to be floundering, Chuck may be the greatest show on TV.
I may have to make the switch to Chuck. :)
Jack: I agree.
Ed: I just started watching season 1 of Chuck. Loving it so far. I also find it highly amusing that people will complain about the fan service in anime, yet don’t seem to mind it when it is in a show like Chuck. ;)
The Middleman series was good for that, even if some of the references to Joe 90 and original Dr Who characters were probably wasted on most of the US audience.
fan service??
just watched “6 months leave” episode of “Mad Men” that show started off this season pretty slow but has now really hit it’s stride. IMHO
Hey Van did all the Dr.Who shows have all the pop cultural jokes?
That’s it !!!!
I’ve started cleaning THAT drawer in my kitchen. You know, the one under the counter that the answering machine sits on … the one that collects all that STUFF you don’t know what to do with …
… so I start pulling STUFF out and it’s been an hour and it’s still loaded with STUFF and I suddenly realize … IT’S NOT A DRAWER, IT”S A FRAKEN TARDIS !!!!
That’s the only reasonable explanation for how it can contain this endless supply of paper clips and twist ties and nail and screws and batteries of unknown condition and caps for pens long since lost and pencils with no point on them and old postcards and installation tools for long forgotten items and what ever the HECK this thing is! I have no idea what it is but I am SURE it was important!!!!
ACK!!!!
J0e, if you happen to see my old Buick Skylark in there, I was thinking of selling it. Let me know, OK?
This made me laugh. Even funnier that Marky Mark was a dick about it:

Joe, you’ve only got one of THOSE drawers?
amateur!
Ah, election over.
Well…
At least we can go back to hating each other quietly…

Morning Pan.
I indefinitely suspended the drawer project.
I found an SAS unit in there and it occurred to me that if I didn’t stop looking, I might actually find Osama Bin Laden.
That would have a distracting effect on the upcoming election so I thought it best to just back away slowly.
CP: Leonard Cohen – Hallelujah
RE: Saturday night live sketch.
It served to point out to me how dependent on current pop culture that show’s humor is.
I don’t keep up with Marky Mark so, past the “Wouldn’t this be lame if it were an actual show” premise … I just didn’t get the joke. :(
Joe, there wasn’t a joke. There usually isn’t in that show….It’s like the anti-funny.
Oh … then I DID get the joke! :)

*soapbox mode*
Some of these clowns on CNBC are really driving me NUTS.
They are trying to discuss the candidate’s economic plans and this one prick keeps saying “Obama’s increase in Capital gains taxes is BAD for the stock market.”
GOOD for the stock market isn’t always the same as GOOD for the economy, you jerk!
Case in point … Corporations have moved their jobs overseas. This decreased their costs, increased their quarterly profits and was GREAT for the stock market … for a while. Till all those laid off workers no longer had money to buy the goods and services.
“Good” for the market was BAD for the economy and eventual proved poisonous for the market.
You fix the economy FIRST you lunk head – and then the market will follow!
Grrrrrrrrr.

ZP opens a can of worms with a review of S.T.A.L.K.E.R:Clear Skies

Van: Brilliant ending to that review! :)
I’ll have to check out the new ZP over lunch. I rewatched his review of Mass Effect and I thought it was funny that just him, I was halfway through the game before I figured out you could apply upgrades to the different weapons. LOL

I’m looking forward to this:

I got 8 out of 10.
I got 5 out of 10, some of those were pretty obscure.
Only 6/10 for me.
I saw an actual PDP (not working) at an exhibition on the history of computer games. They had to use a Vectrex running Space Wars to give an idea how it ran on the PDP.
I’m probably one of the few who put a quarter in to a Space Wars arcade game in the late 70′s. LOL
I did too. :)
They had one at a local arcade (Space Wars that is) but it had been rather neglected, some of the keys for player 2 didn’t work.
Which made for easy victories against my brotherinlaw.
cough
You can play the game at:
http://spacewar.oversigma.com/
You need java installed.
In truth I think the version I played was called “Rip Off.”
I think I may have tried to play that (arcade version “space wars”) once.
I was joking about Pr0n with Patman and Gil over Gmail and got a funny targeted ad from ESPN. “Rocket not upset with Yanks, lacks desire to play”
LOL
I think my stomach is trying to eat itself.
The usually yogurt consumption ain’t working.
I managed a 6/10. My kung fu is a little weak today.
I first learned to program on a Commodore PET.
Same here, Ed.
Only got 3/10. Mostly guessed.
I’m having fun watching this new anime series:

6/10, not bad…
Only one lucky guess too…
I got the Pet (learned to program BASIC on that puppy) and that was it. :(
