(Honest.)
They just happen to be the medium God is using right now to affirm, encourage, (gently) chastise and remind me of what Truth is and what I need to be doing. Or not doing, as [...]

governor sarah palin: vp nominee
ETA: It’s official. Governor Sarah Palin is John McCain’s vice presidential selection. I couldn’t be more thrilled. The more I hear about and from her, the more I love her. I think I’ll actually put a bumper sticker on my car — prior to this, I was going to vote for Senator McCain, but I [...]

dear nbc, i think i might love you
Matt Roush said something the other day that worried me — namely that Chuck was in a very, very competitive timeslot on Monday nights at 7 p.m. CST and was probably the most vulnerable.
He has a point.
Chuck is up against the likes of Prison Break, Gossip Girl, ratings juggernaut Dancing With the Stars, and CBS’ [...]

nathan fillion back to tv
Well, this is a great little tidbit — looks like Nathan Fillion’s headed back to TV.
His series, Castle, which is about a mystery writer who advises the New York City police department on especially difficult cases, has been picked up by ABC.
Very cool news.

the veronica mars effect
Last night, I watched an episode of Medium from last season that I hadn’t seen before. It was really good and guest-starred Kyle Gallner and Jessy Schram.
Except I was like, “Oh, hey, look — Beaver Casablancas has a crush on Hannah.”
I wonder how long it’ll take before I start remembering actors for parts other than [...]

fall 2008 premieres
Back in July, I posted the network schedules for the upcoming 2008-9 season.
I’d planned on formatting all of the new premiere dates but there are A TON. And I am LAZY. So I’m cutting and pasting from some website and therefore, all times are EST, all new shows are asterisked, and I have no idea [...]

this is why i watch
Someone recently asked what the big deal was about the Olympics and wondered why people watched. He later speculated that those who watched must be sports lovers.
I’ve been thinking about that the last couple days.
I mean, I like sports. It could even be said that I love (some of) them, but it’s hardly an everyday, [...]

tivo and the olympics
One of the many advantages TiVo holds over the standard cable/satellite company DVR is its Olympic programming.
I’ve watched the Olympics for a while. The earliest I remember watching is back in 1988 (which probably has more to do with Greg Louganis smacking the crap out of his head on the diving board than anything else), [...]

i’ve walked the valley of death’s shadow
I just got done watching the Chapman family on Larry King Live and with the exception of wanting to thump Larry on the head (hard) for mispronouncing Maria’s name twice and repeatedly interrupting the Chapmans, it was a really great hour.
It was emotional and heart-wrenching and real.
For those of you who don’t watch the news [...]
