why?

because we like you

because I said so

because, in the midnight hour, she cried “more, more, more!”

because, because, because, because, because. because of the wonderful things he does

because the night

because I’m worth it

because of you

because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible

because you’re mine. I walk the line

because knowledge is power!

paris santana row is burning

again.

just a little bit though.

the sirens are blaring and I can see smoke from our office.

I think we should be allowed to go home. smoke inhalation and all. cough, cough. see?

but seriously, I hope no one is injured, it didn’t start in someone’s home, and my precious chili’s is ok. it looks like it’s near there, judging from the ladder on the fire truck.

here are some pictures from the last time it happened. I don’t know who took these. maybe davis did.

comcassed

unbelievable.

last night, the boy and I settled in to watch lost. we were “dvr’ing” it on the replacement box that the boy picked up after the last fiasco with 24 two nights earlier. the new and improved (bull5h!t) box was set to record both episodes of the best show on tv, and since we like to skip commercials, we tuned in to the psalm 23 rerun about 20 minutes after it started. the smoke monster in high definition, on a screen bigger than I, was much more intense and cooler than on my basic-quality recording from last week. and ladies, mr. eko looks even better in hd. just an fyi.

after watching the repeated episode, we fast-forwarded the dvr to skip more commercials and get to the 9 p.m. new episode.

then it happened.

again.

yes, I’m serious.

just like the other box did on monday, this new box crashed. and just like with the other box, it happened 15 minutes into the second hour’s show. and as we were lagging behind a bit to avoid commericals, when the dvr crashed, it flipped over to live tv, which was about 15 minutes ahead. so those minutes of lost were…well…lost. (if you have ever watched lost, you know how important it is to see the entire episode.) once again it was tivo to the rescue. sure, it was on a small, non-hd screen, but tivo dvrs actually do the r part. weird that a digital video recorder would actually record.

that would be a neat trick for comcast to learn, I think.

actually, comcast dvrs are great. as long as you have tivo too.

here’s the story, of 2 men named brady

I just read that christopher knight and barry williams will play a gay couple on an episode of fox’s that 70s show. they play new neighbors to topher’s tv family.

awesome casting.

lost: the musical

this cracked me up. it’s a promo of lost: the musical, from jimmy kimmel. visit voodoo_in_tx and scroll down to the january 14 post. you can download a zipped quicktime version there.

my personal favorites are the opening number and the polar bear doing riverdance.

enjoy!
