May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

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. He answered his own question (which he posed during the 2000 campaign): "Is our children learning?"

School just ended. I have four hours of parent-teacher conference night to get through tonight, with another three tomorrow morning. I picked up my conference schedule, and it's empty. I have coffee but no sweetener, no snacks, and four 9-week exams to write, it's dark, and I'm wearing sunglasses.
Well, no. But wish me luck. I may be nattering a lot.

ION, Tim Goodman reviews the new show Moonlight:
"Moonlight," on the other hand, is just flat-out awful. It's a much easier distinction. In fact, "Moonlight" may well be the worst new fall show.
This year that takes effort. "Moonlight" revolves around a nice vampire named Mick St. John (Alex O'Loughlin), who wants to save people and solve crimes, not bite them and commit crimes.
It's just heinous. Absurd, laughable, painful to watch - you name it, "Moonlight" has it all. Woeful acting? Check. Cheap effects? Check. Worst writing of the new season? Check. Predictability? Pretensions? Faint imitations of superior shows? Someone at CBS shouldn't just have their neck bitten, but sliced through, for this one.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
(Just had one of those moments, typing that above sentence, where I was like, "Oh my god, I have a son! Hey wait, I also have a four year old and I'm married and I'm 35. How the hell did all this happen?")
That is so me (um, if you add a few years to the age). Secret admission? Every night I go in the bedroom to watch them sleep and smell their warm sleepy smell. Every night. I hope that's not too weird.

NBC Greenlights "Knight Rider" 2.0
NBC is bringing back "Knight Rider," tapping Doug Liman to produce a "Transformers"-inspired reworking of the 1980s hit action-drama series about a man and his indestructible supercar.
Peacock is readying a two-hour backdoor pilot for the project, with tentative plans to air it as a telepic later this season. Liman is open to the idea of directing, assuming his feature sked allows. If the telepic clicks, a new-model "Knight Rider" could be on the air as early as next fall.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I hope that's not too weird.
I think it's a job requirement. Also, sweet.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
