Since so many people asked, which is none, I was going to do an April Fools post. What was it? I can't tell you that, I may do it next year. One thing I've learned, its better to not plan when I post as opposed to when I do post. Or something. "Sorpano"s ending: I watched some of this show but I never got into it. Wrestlemania 23: McMahon lost his hair. I know some people would have liked it better if Donald Trump lost his hair. I disgree, and here is why: If Trump lost his hair, the story would have been over at Wrestlemania. With that, they would have had to think up something else to do. With McMahon losing, they can extend the McMahon vs Lashley feud far beyond the hair match and of course eventually beat it to death. Orginal fiction alert: Next week I hope to post a piece of original fiction. It is the next part of an ongoing series called "Judge Rudy". See if you can guess what its a parody of. I no longer have the first one I wrote, but I will post "part two" before I post the third part. Anyway Judge Rudy deals with the soap world. I hope you like it! TV Girl: "Drive" debuts next Sunday! I can hardly wait! I did intend on watching "Raines" but between either forgetting to tape it or forgetting to watch it at all, I've only seen one episode. I wonder if that means anything. I saw a guy that looked like Eddie Izzards brother today. Who is Eddie Izzard? Wikipedia is your friend. I plan to go to Philly for vacay. If anyone has any suggestions on what "Not to miss" when I'm there then don't hesistate to tell me.

The top two reasons why Countdowns 1# story is often mute button material: 1. Too much American Idol. Keith Olbermann claims not to like it but at least two or three number 1# stories were American Idol related. Not everyone cares about the show, you may be actually driving viewers away. Hopefully after this cycle, will be a few AI free months. Thank god they never took up covering The Apprentice when it was on! 2. Anything Anna Nicole related. Nothing else should be in the news about her unless, however , something happens like her coming back from the dead, and she brings Elvis and John Lennon with her. Imagine the massive freakout in the street. Its easy if you try. Gamecube update: Finally beat Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island! Will I ever play it again? Sure, to see if I can beat it quicker! I will now make a plea, PLEASE make an Inuyasha gamecube game! PLEASE! I'm done. Seperated at birth: Look at any pictue of Sascha Baron Cohen as Borat and then look at a picture of Frank Zappa. Is it me, or do they look alike. If they ever want to make a Zappa movie, look no further. Speaking of Borat, there is one trend actors need to stop: Appearing on talk shows "in character". Yes I'm looking at Will Ferrell (and some extent John C Reilly, since they appeared in their Talladega Nights persona on Larry King Live) and Cohen (and probably several others I can't think of). You don't see Nathan Fillion going around acting like hes his Firefly character do you? At the end of the day, you are just in a movie, you are yourself and no one else. If someone else did this kind of baloney, they'd be looking at padded walls. Am I taking it too seriously? Maybe, but its darn irritating. Raines: I'm checking out Jeff Goldblums new show "Raines". So far I like it, but then I like anything Goldblum is in. I'll give it my traditional four tries before I render a verdict. See you guys next time! Stay tuned for a special message at the end of the month. I have some news that will make your jaws drop.

And now a few words on some events going on right now. Britney "I am the cue ball, not the eight ball" Spears shaving her head: Holy Frijole! Don't care. But by the time the media gets done talking about her shaving it, she will have grown it back. Remember when Demi Moore shaved it for GI Jane? It'll grow back. If not she can make a lot of money for Propecia. Anna Nicole: Its sad. Yes. But we don't need all this coverage. Quietly find out who the daddy to the kid is, bury her, and lets get on with life. American Idol: Still not watching. Is Simon cruel? No crueler than the fickle American music buying public who will like you one second, and toss you aside the next. WWE: Looks like Britney will be twinsies with either Donald Trump or Vince McMahon. I bet you bottom dollar at the end NEITHER of them loses their hair. (Okay quick summary for you who don't watch. Trump and McMahon will each have a wrestler representing them at Wrestlemania 23. The loser has their hair shaved). Studio 60: Gone? I hope not. I love this show. Soooo yeah its probably history. Oh well. I'll buy the season if thats the case. I can catch up on WWE if it comes to worst. Keith Olbermann for four more years: If you are real quiet, you can hear O'Reilly sobbing into his pillow tonight. Drive: Its a show I don't know much about, but I will give it a try. Why? Nathan Fillion, who I've made my poster boy of the week. Yeah, most times I've watched something its because of the hunk factor. But it does look good.
See you next time: I will provide a movie review of some sort.

Looking back on my wish list for WWE this year, at least one request of mine has been followed: No McMahon wives or offspring on WWE Tv. Course that may change tonight since its McMahon appreciation night. In case you don't recall, my other wishes were that K-Fed vanish from site and that JR and JBL call the Royal Rumble match. K-Fed was on tv again but thankfully he hasnt been seen since early January. JBL did call the Royal Rumble match but not with JR. So far so good. The Superbowl is next weekend, Colts vs the Bears. I picked the Colts (actually kind of out of necessity, since the person I bet on Superbowl Games with already picked the Bears to win) to win the big game, 23-10. When it comes to football I only watch the Superbowl. Other than the big game, football doesnt interest me at all. However, the snack part of watching a football game DOES interest me. Finding out I was diabetic this past year has reduced the chocolately "yumm yumm" factor in my Superbowl Snack selection. I do have some all time favorites to fall back on. (btw chocolate isnt a complete no no, several candy companies make wonderful low sugar choices if you have to have your peanut butter cup. Like me.) My main snack is nachos, with maybe a low sugar ice cream later on during the last quarter. The recipe I use: 1 package soft cheese (that one that starts with a "v"), cut into cubes for easier melting. 1 jar of salsa, your choice of brand and how hot you want it (I get Tostitos Medium Salsa) 1 bag chips of your choice. (I have Frito Scoops this time) Dump jar of Salsa into bowl with cubes of cheese that you cut up. put it in the microwave. Set the timer for five minutes. Stop it halfway through and stir the cheese making sure its melting and combining with the salsa. When its as done as you want it to be, take it out of the microwave when the bowl is cool enough to handle. Use hand protection if its till slightly hot. Divide the mixture into smaller dipping bowl, serve with your chips. Voila! Enough of this recipe stuff, I dont want to turn into Rachel Ray (satan!) here, but thats one way I enjoy the big game. Don't forget Prince will be perfoming in the half time show. I know at least one net pal of mine will be watching! Time for another cute pic of the week. Yeah, its not Zach Braff again, I'm sooo over him. This weeks obsession Jeremy Piven! I like this picture here:
Next week, it may be someone else. See you later!

I know I had said two things in my last blog: 1) That I would give Shark another chance. 2) I was going to see The Marine over the weekend and promised a review. This, as you can imagine, didn't happen. I worked the last two Thursdays in a row. When I got home I pretty much didn't care about watching it. I feel like I missed nothing. So no second chances, not planning on seeing Shark ever again. As for the Marine movie, as WWE's Snitsky might say "its not my fault" for not seeing the movie. The closest it came to my location is about an hour drive away so Cena or no Cena, I wasn't about to travel that far when the town ten miles away could have played it. It stunk. (Uh the movie being an hour away, not the movie itself, but judging by box office it must have stunk up a theater or two.) But back to John Cena in a bit. Its time for my latest entry in my series of "People who must go away." This weeks member (and keep the joke to yourself I know what word I used) Kevin Federline.
Ah Mr Britney himself. First we met him when he knocked up Brits (and some other girl) and married her (maybe not in that order). Then he decided to become a wrapper...excuse me...rapper. He appeared on the Teen Choice awards and made Vanilla Ice feel better about "Ice ice baby". He even invades the vast field of "Keeping Tabs" when on Countdown. But now hes gone too far. Hes STALKING me. Well not that way. Hes turned up on TWO shows I like, and I am fearful of him appearing in more. Exibit A: CSI - appeared as a teenager even though hes 28 years old. He taunts Nick Stokes (played by the handsome George Eads) at the latest scene of a random beatdown. Nick finally has enough and socks K-fed in the tummy, making him my fave CSI of the week. I won't spoil the ending. (ok he was part of the random beatdown. He gets busted, do not pass go, you can not have any of the casino buffet.) Exibit B: WWE RAW - K-Fed appears as himself mostly to push his new expensive frisbee...I mean CD. Current WWE RAW Champ John Cena comes out and delivers a verbal smackdown to him making me a temporary John Cena fan. Temporary meang it ended ten minutes later. I fear he will appear on some other show I watch. Why can't he do the right thing, and get LOST? I don't mean the show with seemingly the population of Delaware on one island, I mean "Beat it slappy!" Next blog? I'm not saying since it does sooo well to plan them out in advance (meaning not at all), but I will see you round the blathersphere.

Not even a month into my new tv season and already one show I had high hopes for is slowly dropping off my must see list. Its Shark the James Woods show I was looking forward to the most. James Woods is one of my favorite actors. For that reason alone I chose his new show to watch. But slowly but surely Mr Woods is becoming the only reason to watch the show. The rest of the cast (including Jeri "seven of nine" Ryan) is not very interesting. When you watch a show you want to see people you want to get to know. Me, I can hardly wait for them to get off the screen. "Sharks" lawyer proteges don't interest me, and I forsee a stupid affair down the road for Mr Woods and the Borg chick. I have no proof it will happen but trust me, when it does. I called it! I'm a good sport. I will give them ONE last chance, maybe two. At least finish out the month. Ok I'm stalling. Nancy at the movies: I went out last Thursday to the theater in a local college town. I saw Jet Li's Fearless. It is an awesome movie. Jet Li is becoming one of my favorite martial arts actors. (Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat tie for first. And dont get on my case about not including Bruce Lee, I've never seen one of his movies) Before the movie I went to the bookstore and to my surprise picked a Bill Maher book, "New Rules". I like Mr Maher. Hes good in small doses. Unlike Bill O'Reilly, who is good in no doses. At the store I was at there was more copies of his book left for sale than others like, say Al Frankens new book. Billos lastest uh book is already at 20% off. Not a good sign. Buy one though, it'll make a spiffy door stop. I also got a Dave Barry book. I am hoping to see John Cenas movie "The Marine" on Friday. If I do, I promise a review. If not, I'll see you around the blather-sphere.

Progress report: I've read halfway through the Bill O'Reilly book. Its not bad, but hes never written another fiction novel so I imagine when it first came out it didn't do well. I will admit to skipping four pages, which contained two love scenes. There is something about reading a love scene written by O'Reilly that turns you off food for a while. Will finish book soon, I have a lot of other books to read. O'Reillys book is destined to be donated to the library. Yes, I am sharing the "lurve". I am half tempted to dream up a "fantasy cast list" for the movie version of the book, but I doubt a movie version is forth coming. PS: No falafels or loofas were injured in the first half of "Those Who Trespass". Snakes on a plane:I forgot to post my review of this movie. It's good campy fun. If you want a fun night at the movies, see Snakes on a place. Its not going to win an oscar, but its a good way to spend an hour or so. Watch out for snakes! (A cookie to those who got that reference. )

I havent had a blog since July 16. And for that I apologize to the two people reading this. For these people: A semi new blog! In August I promise to blog more, and actually blog about what I say I will. The "Remakes vs originals" topic will come around someday. In the meantime August promises the following: A blog on who I think will win Emmys, and surely a blog about me whining about who did win. A glorious book review! Hint: A fiction book from a tv anchor. I will provide a review of "Snakes on a plane", and some movies that came out this year that you should avoid. Stay tuned, it should be good!
