I watched one GA early on and didn't like it. Perhaps this summer I will watch the whole season and see if it grows on me. I don't think it is my thing though. But I'm getting tempted.
Laura, I missed this earlier. The first ep I was a little meh. I wasn't sure about the voice-overs or the main character but liked enough to watch the following week. If you get the chance, check it out again. You're even welcome to borrow my dvds, after I get them and watch them a few times.
If I were sarameg, I'd slap my brother since he should know better. Sometimes a simple-ish disagreement can grow just due to others getting involved. Hopefully everything will be resolved quickly, sarameg.
edit: Aurelia, the pandas, polar bears and snow leopards are gorgeous. If she's an animal lover, she'd probably think it's a great gift.
Any localistas want to do trivia in Santa Monica next week?
Well, since I won't be going, I want a full report.
Thank DOG for Trader Joes, well, for the huge bars of Swiss chocolate that they sell. I am such a chocolate hound these days.
Put these on the table with your holiday bird. [link]
Nip/Tuck: I think we are playing with the regular deck. And I agree with what was said above about Julia
and getting her spine back
and then they have to throw a wrench in it with that last scene.
Project Runway: Wow, I think that they've got a really talented group of contestants this year. And they appear to have changed some things up.
Alias: Yes,
Sark
is still cute. Also: Jack Bristow,
Renaissance Man.
And did you catch the promo?
You know what is disturbingly good? Ciao Bello caramel gelato with Starbucks Coffee Liqueur on top, that's what.

Not disturbing at all. Jealous-making, perhaps.
You know, there's a reason I do like going to krav, even when I don't feel well. Because there's social contact. It makes me feel less like a caged freak. Plus, there's the bonus of conversations like this:
A: "So when I punch, my forearm will be like those things SWAT uses to open the doors?"
B: "Whuh? Yeah...I guess it's like Grond from Lord Of The Rings. You know...the batt..."
me: "You know the name of the battering ram from Return Of The King? You're a big geek."
B&A: "You like sci-fi! You're a geek too!"
B, conspiratorially: "She totally likes Firefly."
me, muttering: "It's not the same."
[...]
me: "I mean, the battering ram? Knowing the names of the swords is one thing."
B: "Swords?"
me: "Sting, Glamdring, whatever."
B: "You know Glamdring?"
me: "IT WAS IN THE BOOK. And it's very pretty."
B: "Uhuh. Different."
