Halfway through the second season of Babylon 5 now, the plots arcs are really getting interesting.

w00t! Makes me want to go back and rewatch. We finished Season 4 a couple months ago and haven't gone on to Season 5. We're working our way through Farscape on Netflix right now. Also, need to continue our DS9 watching.

So many DVDs, so little time.

We are wondering if B5 Season 5 is worth it to buy, or if we should Netflix it. there's a completist urge to get it, but I hear that it isn't very good. And B5 and DS9 are on the high end of DVD pricing, so I think I'd rather get S5 of DS9 (I think that's what we're up to- we finished the first season with Worf on- that's Season 4 I think)

And, w00t! We just got Firefly DVDs! Now I can finally watch the unaired episodes, and the rewatch the aired episodes. Also, we got Simpsons Season 5. When all of TV turns to crap, it's a relief to know we have a reserve of the good stuff.

I guess the search for WMDs in Iraq has finally ended. Apparently, we decided to give up trying to find them.

Is this the stupidest quote ever, or what: (said by a high university muckety-muck):

"The world series was a moment of eternity.", said Muckety Muck

Um-- WTF? Isn't every moment moment of eternity? I think the sentance is missing an end or something.

Crap, I totally forgot that Huygens was gonna land on Titan last night. Too busy installing OS X 10.3 on my iBook....

It's landed and sending a strong signal. Pictures this afternoon.

It would be cool to see pictures of lakes of liquid methane....

Is it there right now ? Or is it there a long time ago, and we're only getting the signal now? How long does it take for a signal to get from Saturn...oh, you know, the thing is I keep thinking of light-years, but Saturn's not that far away. But if it were, say, a light-year away, we wouldn't know it had gotten there until a year later, right?

Is this the stupidest quote ever, or what:

Yes. He should've referred to it as an "event that will live in infamy."

The Huygens probe was sending its data to Cassini. Once Cassini is no longer able to receive probe data, Cassini will point its antenna at earth and send us the data.

I guess the search for WMDs in Iraq has finally ended. Apparently, we decided to give up trying to find them.

The Daily Show was great on that point last night (see tag). The White House press secretary was unable to say only September 11th over and over and avoid using any other words or phrases. But just by a small margin.
