Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Can anyone explain to me why the cable guy comes and hooks up my cable/cable internet and now I have cable internet but NO TV? Why does Time Warner hate me having television? Do they expect me to actually TALK to Bob or some bullshit like this? I NEED MY TELEVISION.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

bon, like Bob is even paying attention to you. He's probably 300 pages into Kant's Unauthorized Biography or some shit.

Though no teevee sucks. When the talking lamp doesn't talk, advertisers cry.

You could try unplugging the cable modem and plugging the cable box in there and see if the TV works.

I used to watch mexican telenovelas. Without really understanding the language. OMG, they trump ANY other soap for angst and improbability and class issues.

I actually heard a piece on the radio recently about how popular they are in Russia.

Man, I'm taping SO MUCH TV. And I don't consider myself that much of a tv watcher (from years of not watching.) Time to reevaluate the selfimage.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I just bailed on TAR:FamilyFeud. Can't take the screaming.

TAR: I hope the screamers get eliminated fast.

I'm ok with a few bunches of screaming adults. Now, at kids? Or bratty kids? Might turn me off.

Wanna bet this is going to be more The Great American Roadtrip than Round the World edition?

Also, it helps that I watch TAR thusly: get up. get a drink. scoop catboxes. pee. wash dishes watching reflection in glass doors. sort through read and unread Monitors. catch up here. post here. read lj. pay electric and gas bill.

etc.

Live giant squid photographed for the first time: [link]

I had fresh regular squid caught for me in Mozambique. I don't like squid. Even in garlic and butter over a campfire. And squid guts 5 hours later? Stink. Also, I finally learned where cuttlebone came from. I could do without.

HOWEVER. Gianty squid PICTURES? Cool.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh. People have been trying to photograph a giant squid in its natural environment for many years.
