I Had a Really Good Title For This But It's Gone...

First of all, because of the damn snow, we had a foot and a half fall here in the city, our cheesecake was not delivered on time. Argh!

Second, my new mother was on E! Am I losing my mind? Did I ever have one because I can't get that stupid thing out of my mind...

You are Wintergreen.
You are cool and collected. You are very
comfortable with yourself and what you do.
Even if you have a lot of responsibilities, you
always manage to be in control. You are
sometimes laid-back and you are always the
voice of reason. However, others may see you
as lazy or detached sometimes, unable to act
responsibly.

Which Tic-Tac Flavor Are You?

He-man was very good last night. Of course, if I had to complain about something, it was way too easy to stop the Snakemen and turn Teela, Man-at-Arms and Meckaneck back to normal after being changed into Snake People. I loved how Orko threatened Rattlor into talking by enlarging a mongoose. That was cool. Roboto busting out of his bonds by igniting his rocket hands was cool too. (Yes, I'm a grad student. Shut up.)

Justice League could have been better but was good. Hawkgirl and GL finally acknowledged their feelings for each other and we got to see Shiera without her mask. She basically looks like a cross between Diana and Poison Ivy. The main plot with the Joker taking over the TV airwaves in Las Vegas and having the League have to race against the clock finding hidden bombs while fighting the Royal Flush Gang reminded me too much of the Batman episode "Christmas with the Joker." They really screwed continuity with the Royal Flush Gang. The futuristic version of the group appeared on Batman Beyond and were described there as a group comprised of family members that replace themselves with husbands and wives and children over time. They didn't have super powers, just futuristic weapons. (I did the like Gang's powers here but Ace's secret power was obvious to figure out when they had found the last bomb and thee was still twenty minutes left in the show...) Though, it makes sense that they were recruited and named by the Joker even if they weren't related. Next week is the Christmas episode which should be interesting.

This Is Where I Was And Will Be Again

These are pictures from my first trip down to Southwest Florida this past October. The 'rents and I are going back down tomorrow so I thought I'd give all one of you a clue to where I was. This is a local park called Ponce De Leone Park. I like this shot because it shows some differences between down there and up here. There's some pretty tacky homes down there. Some homes, maybe that one, are worth about a million dollars and don't look much more interesting than that. By the way, we hope to see a real manatee or two this time... This is Gilchrist Park. That water in the lower left corner is actually part of a big fountain. Again, this shot shows a big difference in climate from up here. Interestingly, this park has the more extravagant Ponce De Leone statue/monument. Weird... We will probably visit this park again at least once while we're down. The theme of differences continues here, al beit morbidly. I had to get a shot of this as it amused me. (Although the ...

Remind Me

Remind me to complain how boring and unexciting my life more often because as soon as I did, it got really exciting really fast. Last night, we had four visitors arrive from Korea. They like ziti and garlic bread. Go figure. They will be staying until Sunday night. I told my mother (AKA Hyacinth Bucket) she was making way too much salad but did she listen? No. Now we have this huge-ass bowl of salad in the fridge...What's really irritating is first the fork we use to serve catfood went missing now Susie's dish is missing as well... Tomorrow, I have a physical to prepare for my surgery then I go to my orthopedist's to fill out consent forms. Woo Hoo! I hope I can find time for a haircut as well because... Friday, I have a job interview at a library in Massachusetts! It's a reference job but I also will be conducting a book group. I've never done that but it sounds really fun. Sure, I'll be stuck reading many book that sucks but isn't that what book group i...

Thank You Al Stewart

Well, I'm back from taking care of all those cats. It was actually one cat who had the the run of most of the house and 9 others that stayed in one bedroom; two of which I never saw the whole time. The biggest challenge was changing the litter boxes twice a day. One of the littlest kittens escaped from the room about a half dozen times and was harder and harder to catch. I spent most of my time watching old TV series and movies. I watched episodes of: Magnum PI including the pilot, Hunter including an episode the DVD box hyped had Ed O'Niell in it but also included "Fran McDormand" who perhaps is more well known, Charlie's Angels including the episode that aired originally the day I was born which also happens to be Jaclyn Smith's birthday..., Quantum Leap , Remington Steele , Sledge Hammer , Father Dowling and The Avengers . All series Lady Vader probably doesn't remember since she was under six when they originally aired. (OK, The Avengers and...
