Kaylee ,'Out Of Gas'
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.
Preliminary ratings information show that Path to 9/11 was not only trounced by Sunday Night Football, it only managed to tie a rerun of a CBS documentary about 9/11.
It was Manning v. Manning--and it kicked ASS, plus, opening song by Pink! Go Colts! I'm pretty sure Monday Night Football will not be interrupted by the presidential speech--it's on ESPN. Guess what we're watching tonight?
dude, we are so like almost exactly the same person.
It's true.
Does anyone else twitch in their half-sleep? I'm noticing that when I nap in my car I can twitch enough to wake me up from almost slumber.
yes, sometimes. It happens when I'm in bed, but only when I'm awake enough to notice it. Which means that it could happen while I'm asleep, but I sleep through it, I suppose.
Fellow Brooklynites and Colbert fans, I would like to draw your attention to this paper's endorsement of David Yassky. (Note the headline...)

Hey, that was my district! Sniff.
El presidente has been clueless about the needs of television before. Remember last fall, when he did a speech during Sweeps? On a Thursday? On the half-hour, which meant he broke two timeslots instead of just one?
I like to think the networks beat him over the head after that, but I suspect they rolled over and said, "Yeah, George! Okay, George! And after that, can we go chase some sticks, George? Yeah? Huh? Okay?"
I like The Straight Dope's explanation of hypnagogic myoclonus -- he says that it may also happen in relation to vaguely perceived noises in a delayed reaction. It's possible that you're hearing different sounds in the car rather than in your bedroom, I suppose.
One thing that I've noticed with my own falling-asleep-twitching is that it's a lot more likely to happen to me if I've had a major fall or almost-fall that day, as though my nervous system is trying to revisit it.
And Nutty, somebody else probably sighed and said "Why do you do that? He'll never want to stop now!"And my tag feels very appropriate with the 9/11 memories, though I knew very few of you at that time. And I'm very glad that not that many people watched the bogus 9/11 special.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Trudy!
I'm glad the primaries are tomorrow because I'm tired of answering the phone and getting a recorded message.(I know, there will still be phone spam until the elections in November, but maybe there will be fewer for a bit)
