Entertain me, The Family December 4th, 2007

  • Firefox’s 3.0 beta is wicked fast, but horridly unstable. And when I decided to go back to 2, it funked things up. Now I’m stuck between wanting to use Safari and Firefox. Safari is faster on most of my sites, but wordpress and a few other things are buggy, so I stick to firefox. Besides, I love the gmail widget. I can’t wait till the final 3.0 is released. It’s purdy.
  • WTF is going on with Battlestar? We watched Razor, and I was sooooooooooooo fucking disappointed. Then we see ‘Battlestar returns in MARCH!?!?!?!?!” (pardon the juvenile typing…I’m pissed). Okay - the problem with the movie - regression. The characters are back in a space that they’ve already passed. Who cares, really? I wanted more history on Adama and his past. I thought the hybrid reveal was a little interesting, but not enough to warrant wasting all of my time. I miss many of those characters but in they movie, well they moved beyond that last year (or was it the year before — these long hiatuses are killing me). I wasn’t that interested. Although I did like the bitch-commander. Oh and the lesbian relationship, I thought that was interesting, but they cheapened it. Instead of making it a real motivation for why she kills Gina it’s just a “gotcha” moment. Blech.
  • Heros - While many people had a problem with the series, I liked this season’s cast and story. Okay, I admit that the wonder-twins annoyed the piss out of me, but I was glad to see Sylar back. That last show kicked me in nuts I didn’t know I had. The meandering storylines met up in a satisfactory end for me. I can’t wait till next season.
  • I’m watching Tin Man on Sci Fi — it’s soooo cheesy and I love it. I will not apologize. But I may not admit that I watched it again.

I’m writing this as I cook peppers and onions. D starts with Nike tomorrow! HURRAY!

    I kinda wanted to watch that Tin Man show; might try to catch it. Oh, made your salsa. It’s yummy but too spicy for my taste, even though I took out *most* all the jalapeƱo seeds. Next time, I’ll just put less in, in general. But awesome nevertheless!

    Ahhh Claire! :) I like mine quite spicy. Just de-rib and de-seed all of the jalapeƱos so you get the flavor but not the heat.

    Anne — MBA??? You should call a girl one of these days!
