I didn't watch the show when it ran new, but I have enjoyed it a few times in syndication. Not a big sitcom person though.

Well, I topped off the show with the quick hurricane reports. Doesn't look like I'll get anything much from Rita. Good thing because I don't have any way to shutter the new area yet.

I was surprised to see that we're up to the Rs. K was only like two weeks ago!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, this is crazy, right? We don't usually get this many named storms, do we? And what if there are more than 26? Do they start on the next year's names?
Possibly I could google instead of just asking here.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

They should start doubling up letters. If storm 27 is called Aaron Aardvark, I want some sort of royalty.

Ha! But no. Thanks to google and NOAA:
Subject: B6) What happens if they run out of names on the list?
In the Atlantic and East Pacific, if they have run through the list they then used the Greek alphabet : Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta,... etc. . So if they ever have a Hurricane Omega you know it's been a busy year. In the Central and West Pacific they have a perpetual lists of names, so when one list is through they simply start on the next.
Since the name list has been started in the Atlantic in 1950 the furthest they have gone down the list has been Hurricane Tanya in 1995.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just watched House. Oh, the end made me laugh. The rest of it was ... very like most of the last season. I was hoping for more jiggling with the formula, a la Three Stories (which I didn't think was as good as everyone did, but at least it was different t /tangling Voltaire )

It's worth noting that Jon Stewart's speech concluded within the alloted time and did not need to be "played off."

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Just got back from trying out the new Persian restaurant, which brought my streak of finding excellent Middle-Eastern places to a screeching halt. Each new foodstuff sampled was a unique and disappointing surprise. And the take-home box of tadig that I didn't have the heart to refuse started stinking up my car so badly I stopped at a gas station on the way home to dump it. How this place got rave reviews from the local food critic when my friend's wonderful Moroccan restaurant got savaged and given 1 1/2 stars is beyond me.
