TV Seasons and other stuff



As Jerry had mentioned, Veronica Mars has been cancelled. While I keep hoping another network will pick it up, I highly doubt that will happen. Pretty much all of "my" regular shows have finished their seasons. I know Jerry and I have wondered lately why networks only have a Fall season. Why not do it based on the seasons of the year. I just know I shouldn't be stuck watching 5 nights of CSI, Law and Order or Deal or No Deal. (I don't actually watch any of those). The Networks suck..yes..there..I said it. They have cancelled wonderfully intelligent shows like Veronica Mar, Andy Barker P.I., Studio 60 (although for some reason there is a new episode next Thursday) and The Class (although they really couldn't go on with that much more, but it was clever). I wonder who their test market is. Do people really want 7 days or reality shows and game shows?

Ok, enough of the small screen... We went to see Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End today. I loved it. I thought it was better than the second one. I actually caught myself laughing out loud and smiling at all the little jokes. While it was a little darker than the first two it had a good ending. Which by the way left the door open for future Pirate movies if Disney should want to beat a dead horse. Although I doubt they would be any good without the original ensemble of actors. Anyway...good flick!

    We might go see Pirats of the Caribbean III tomorrow. Do you think it's too scary for Tyler?

    If he did fine with Pirates II he should be fine. It's darker than the others but mostly just more of the Flying Dutchman creatures.

BSG Comes to an end?!

I am a HUGE fan of the new Battlestar Galatica (BSG). Sad to hear that they are coming to an end next year. Does it mean they get to Earth? Are the Cylons defeated? Or do they find a peaceful way to co-exist with the Cylons? OR...are they going to leave it in cliff hangers for future movies? Thank goodness for DVD's so that I can always get my BSG fix!

Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. When reading the text it's difficult not to see how history repeats itself. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath s...

Hi-Tech Bed

So our Select Comfort Bed arrived today. So far so good. Although I think we are losing air (it's not staying at 100 after I fill). Not sure though. Tonight will be the real test. I think my sleep number is 35. When trying it out both in the store and at home that is where I'm not feeling any pressure on my hips or shoulders. Jerry thinks his number is around there too. I'm really hoping this will help with Jerry's back, shoulder, neck pains. He is so much better but he occasionally gets flare ups. No fun Oh yea...and the controller is Wireless. We can be gadget whores in our sleep too!
