Monday, the convention, and a thunderstorm

26 08 2008

As for the convention, here are the results of a CNN poll that I took part in today:

How much of the Democratic National Convention do you plan to watch?
A lot 15% 48699
A little 29% 92136
None 56% 179779
Total Votes: 320614

I’m one of the voters who reported “a little,” the 29%.

I watched the convention for about thirty minutes, heard Ted Kennedy’s great speech (he looks and sounds great).

As usual, I’m glad that Monday is over–4 days to go, then 3 days off!

Woot!

Seattle is cool and very wet today; I came home in a thunderstorm.

That’s Seattle for you!

Take care everyone.

TTFN.





G4 – Hurl!

19 07 2008

G4 – Hurl!.

Lord love a duck, I’ve never heard of such a thing.

Contestants on this new G4 show eat loads of heavy food (macaroni and cheese debuts in the first show), then are placed in a steel cage and turned around and around until they…hurl?

I will not watch this wonderfully, uhm, intellectual fare.

But I will be interested to learn how many dummies actually watch this crap.

And if the name ‘Hurl’ doesn’t take off, I propose another name for the show: Random Acts of Puke, you know, as in ‘random acts of kindness.’

Right.

Time for me to give it up and go to bed.

TTFN.





Television rules this evening

29 05 2008

Thanks to Rose for her good wishes. I went to work today and got a lot done (I think my vacation has a lot to do with this).

Tonight I’m glued to the television because there is a new “Ghost Hunters” on SciFi..

It’s getting ready to rain in Seattle right now–it’s cloudy and muggy!
