brenda: Of course, it all depends on who's left, but I'm betting he'd take Yul. They're both stand-up guys, and I think Ozzie would want it to be between the two of them. I think that would probably be the hardest final two they've ever had. I think if it was those two, there would be almost no BUT YOU STABBED ME IN THE BACK from the jury. Except for maybe from Jonathan. But even then, I suspect that Jonathan is exactly the type to take the "Hey, it's just a game, and you've got to play as hard as you can to win."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought 30 Rock was OK. I don't know that I liked it enough to kick something else off my usual Thursday routine, but I'll watch it when whatever else is in reruns, I guess.

I was possibly overly distracted by the boyfriend storyline.

Grrr..... Last week, I updated my Windows Media Player to WMP11, and that dramatically improved the performance of CBS' InnerTube player (though it still did a weird thing -- the first time through, only part 1 of 4 would play, the rest would not. Second time through, only 1 and 2, third time through I got to see part 3, and only on the fourth try did I get part 4. I think the ads they run in between parts are not always coded properly.)

Today, it's getting hung up and having buffer problems again. Feh. CBS needs to get better coders in there for their streaming media player.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sean, I had that problem with the CBS player when trying to watch the unaired episodes of Smith. I gave up trying.

Yeah. I was so happy that updating WMP seemed to at least solve the hanging/buffering problem, I was willing to overlook the problems loading the next segment.

It's just frustrating to have the problem come back.

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

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hardly surprising, given (a) legs much stronger than arms and (b) shoes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. I'd like to see the raw numbers for that survey. I wonder how many times someone tried to use feet and fucked up--it does introduce more of a balance issue.

Also, are we talking kicks from distance, or stomping on the head of someone we've managed to get on the ground, or what? Unless you fight the whole fight with one weapon, the results are misleading.

If I were to pick, I'd pick elbows--but that assumes the fight has gotten close. I wouldn't come in close just for the opportunity to use them. But once you do? Very good risk:payoff ratio.
