A Remembrance
Mood:
 sad
Now Playing: You will be missed
Topic: John Spencer 1946 -2005
Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

TV!
Mood:
 lazy
Now Playing: I dont get the appeal of...
There are a few shows and people I don't get the appeal of. I will share them with you, as long as you don't try and get me to watch it and see if I like it, my mind is made up.
Prison Break - I know there is a prison and there will be a break, but whats going to happen after that? I get the feeling the big let down will happen whenever season two starts.
Desperate Houswives - Most of what happens on that show, that I've seen of at award shows, just leaves me flat. Most storylines probably happen on daytime soaps as well. Oh by the way, can you say "overexposed"? The hype makes it seem better than sliced bread.
Lost Lost is one of those shows that I put under the category of "if you havent watched from the first frame, you might as well not even try to catch up". Another one thats overexposed... a lot of shows on this short list are overexposed.
Grey's Anatomy - I decided to be a fan of just one medical drama (House MD).The last time I tried a new medical show it got canned (Mds a couple years back.) It's major sin is displacing "Boston Legal" to Tuesdays.
Some people who I don't the appeal of:
Nancy Grace - She's....she's....damn shes just scary.
Paris Hilton - Shes famous for just being born. I fear the day she takes over the Hilton empire.
Bill O'Reilly - I don't get the appeal of him. He's a blowhard and as of late his mouth has gotten him into a variety of troubles.
I may be bitter, most shows I like get cancelled....hmmm. Maybe if i start being a O'Reilly fan he will retire and go away. Its so crazy, it might just work!

Premiere blather-ing
Mood:
 happy
Now Playing: World Premiere Blather
Topic: Top five movies
Hello there. I've never blogged before, but I'm giving it a go. Nothing much to say but I've decided to make a short list of my top five movies of the year 2005. Some of them will be on video, at least two won't be for a while.
1. Good Night And Good Luck - A brilliant piece of film about Edward R Murrow directed by George Clooney. It's up for four Golden Globe awards and I hope it wins them all. Incidentally, Murrows line "Good Night And Good Luck" can be heard nightly if you watch the absolutely brilliant Keith Olbermann on MSNBC. (Eight eastern)
2. Batman Begins - Christian Bale invigorates the series with his performance as Batman/Bruce Wayne. I can hardly wait for the next one.
3. Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire - The best Potter film yet. I didn't start out as a Potter fan but the lad grew on me. Not literally, that would be strange.
4. Fantastic Four - Not so many people would have this far up on the list but there are two reasons to watch it: for the great action and for the guys! Yeah, I know, its borderline teeny bopper behavior.
5. Serenity - AKA the Firefly feature movie. I was not a Firefly fan when the show was on the air but I loved it. I should have watched it, but I was a fan of Ed at the time.
Movies I want to see:
1. Walk the line.
2. Rent
3. Syriana
