Gawd, I love Buffistas on Sunday. It is like having a blog, without the CSS worries.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm here, Gus! At least for the next few minutes.

Hi, Robin. Here is the lesson I have learned tonight from The Dead Zone: Russian guys are robots.
I needed to know that. Maybe you did not.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Hey, all (and by "all", I probably just mean "Gus")
I've been watching Atlantis from last season to keep the First Night Alone in New Housing demons.
I've also been making a shopping list. The first shopping trip of a new kitchen. I never remember what to buy.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I have learned tonight from The Dead Zone: Russian guys are robots.
Not according to The Tick vs. Education (which just aired tonight, and I've never seen it before, and according to some guides I've seen was the last produced animated episode). Russian guys are evil soft serve ice cream assasins.
Which totally makes sense to me.
Except I think Edlund has Soviet issues since he also included an old KGB kill robot in the live action Tick.
In other Soviet news: Gulags! I glanced at a book about them today. Apparently there were quite a lot of them. Did you know the word "Gulag" is an acronym? It stands for something in Russian for "central oversight agency for all those people we keep in prison camps."
Can you imagine how much it sucked to live in the Soviet Union from the 30s through the 50s? Oy. Unless of course you were a high ranking party member. Then it was caviar and good times.
Continuing that riff, one of the hip new records of the year is by Regina Spector titled Soviet Kitsch which is an evocative title that says something very important though I'm not sure what.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
My feelings on Stargate (both the original flavor and the Aquarium) are this: I suspect it is only merely mediocre and people are starved for Science Fiction on TV and now everybody is going to scamper toward Battlestar Galactica.
Though in fairness, fandom seems to be flocking toward the Aquarium show, particularly ex-Trekkies for some reason.

By "all" you mean "Gus and beth_b and Scrappy", which is the title of a porn DVD I would buy.
First season Atlantis will demolish all house demons. This is a known fact.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Obviously, the lesson of the day is that Russians are evil. We should have killed the Communists when we had the chance, dagnabbit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I don't think we ever had the chance. Unless if we didn't mind getting killed ourselves.
