Sloppy seconds? Bah!

NCIS last night was good, best line was probably Palmer's "wet-vac for the Soylent Green", and it was nice to see he's not grappling with Agent Lee (or is it Li?) every single eppy. Not sure if the director was offering LtCol Mann a job at NCIS once her CID tenure runs out, could be interesting to have her as a part(or full) timer next season. Sadly, they didn't show a 'next-week' bit at the end, which means we either have to sit through another block of repeats, or it's being taken off to make way for another show.

Yes Nicodemus it is that time of year for reruns and preempting for special programming.

Last night was the Miss Universe contest. I guess Miss United States got booed. A political thing I imagine. Thank goodness we have these contests to bring people together.

Actually I am watching less TV all the time. I hardly remember to watch the shows I do like.

I missed the last Medium and it was the final episode of a four part series. Curses. Now will have to an eye out for this series to return in reruns this summer.

I'm at work again. We shreaded about 8 years worth of back records. It was fun I pretended we were criminals destroying evidence before the authorites arrived. Then the industrial shreaded broke. It's not as much fun to rip up hundreds of papers with your bare hands.

A study of the tv schedule for the next 7 days has confirmed my suspicions. We're back to random repeats, in particular, Tony's frame-up, so we get Chip (the short-term mustachioed minion of Abby) back, even if just for one episode.

Hey Copilot!! That's exactly the sort of game I play to get through some of the less interesting things in life!! It's good to know I am not the only one who does such silly things!

Hi there NVG!! Hello Traveler!! I miss you men heaps at times - and Hello my twin brother (Kelkhil)!! I took some pics to make into twin emotes for you and Laurelin so I will post those here as soon as I have actually... you know... made them into emotes...

Awwww... Nico - I missed it!! I have been watching much less of channel 10 since Big Brother came back on - it just irritates me to pieces and it's easier to avoid that channel altogether than jump up and down changing or muting the TV (I'm at Mum and Dad's so there's no such thing as a working remote - actually the TV takes about 20 mins on average to warm up and actually work properly so... )

James!!! Where are you going???

How's things folks?

NVG - Good to hear about the alone time and decisions and such that were made (from the last thread, sorry)

*glomps Magda*

Traveler - Not sure of your feelings on this sort of thing, and also not sure if your show is on here, but you can check these links and see if you can find the episode you missed:

I so love being glomped - thank you all!!


I feel kind of weird today - not sure if it's my stupid cold that won't go away, or if I am just feeling low on account of a few things that have happened of late... I am confuzzled and weird... but you all knew that about me - didn't you! Either way I feel ever so much better for popping for a cup of water and finding mass glompage waiting for me!!


Hey Traveler - I just realised you were talking about 'Medium' - I am watching it right now - well more listening to it I guess since it's on in the other room and I am on the computer!!

Are we discussing something?


If you tell Mum then I will tell her something about you that I made up... and she will believe me!


EDIT: Sorry - hello Hobbleit...

But channel 10's showing full-length ads for Torchwood now. Even though, in true style, they've already spoiled things.

This station has a habit of including bits from the very ends of episodes in their ads, and giving away major plots twists, thus their teaser ads for Torchwood gave away the 'twist' for the first episode before they'd even mentioned Jack's name.

Oh, it gets even better MsG. While Dr Who continues to be shown on the same channel that's broadcast it since the beginning (ie, 1960s), Torchwood was picked up by a commercial station better known for Big Brother, Australian Idol, The Biggest Loser (and American Idol, delayed telecast by a few months, shown when they need a reality tv show to fill in the gaps while the others are on holiday).

And worse still (extreme spoilers):

Select to view spoiler:


At the end of season 1 Torchwood (by end of season I mean final 30 seconds), Jack gets collected by the TARDIS, although they never show it, just the sounds and wind, then he's not there. In the previews for the second half of Dr Who 2007 (season 30 if you want to be accurate, since there were 27 or so before it stopped in the 80s), Jack is shown romping thru time and space with the Doctor and Martha. The problem is that due to scheduling, Jack will re-appear on Dr Who in Australia before he's vanished from Torchwood, causing some continuity problems for the casual viewers and the fans who haven't seen internet downloads of the eps.

OK now that really would be confusing...

Well the baby duckies are safe and sound...and we didn't even need to trap them. Apparently our custodian is the pied piper of ducks and he just opened the courtyard and they followed him out and down the hall and into the open courtyard with pond... go figure. So all's well with the new baby ducks:)

Happy Wednesday to all!

I had an extra long holiday weekend that left me tired, but feeling very accomplished. Did a ton of riding (almost more than I wanted) with the highlight being cross country schooling yesterday. ( and being the horrible person I am, I was very pleased with the fact that I rode massively better than the obnoxious kid that came along as well. She's sooooo arrogant, without the skill to back it up, that it can be hard to not feel smug. ) I am now all poised to do my very first three day event in about three weeks. Eek!

Ah, but fun isn't often a good enough reason to do something. 'Tis the reason that gets a lot of people into serious trouble.

Believe me, I'm adventure-some. But I'm also practical and realistic.

And as I so ineloquently stated before, we wouldn't want you any other way!

I'm glad you were able to get your fill of riding for a while. There's nothing like the sated feeling of an accomplished glut! And phooey on the darling little dorkette! (ssssseee, misssssssy, you do have an evil ssssstreak in you after all....)

Mags, ya really gotta quit with the whole lippy/bitey thing. It is all too distracting (in a good way of course).

Good for you Rugbug. I can't help but feel extreme pride for you. Lord knows how elated I feel when I get the chance to put some smug little bastard in their place. Kudos!

Trav, James, and Nico: Glad to see y'all around from time to time.

Thanks for the props Jimi. A mutual friend says I need to get past some of my walls by knocking a hole through them with certain activities. Seems he's the third person to tell me that in the last twenty four hours.

Jonny, I never did get an answer on the 'do.

Gosh it feels like I missed so many. I didn't forget ya K, thanks for the support.

The reviews have varied. The worst I've seen was the dude from the Daily Mail but then again he does write for the Daily Mail and therefore his opinion is immediately disregarded.

Besides. It's a few hours I can take off from revising.

It was just a shock. Seems no one just shaves their head these days unless they are trying to keep cool or are having some health issues.

Lord knows I've been annoyed by my hair blowing in my face this weekend and considered doing the same.

But now ya had to go and ruin it by shaving yours first. Seems I have to settle for a mohawk style .

RIMG did it first!! (And the shock value is priceless!)

Actually I usually go quite short for the summer. I'm just way early this year and I've always wanted to do the cue, so with a long weekend available and some time on our hands, MsQ fixed me up right. Female feedback has been POS-I-TIVE. Not advocating, just observing.

As for the Mohawk, always a neat look but at the same time everyone I've ever seen one in is a scary Martha Fokker. Not to mention you'd have some heritage issues, wouldn't you? I mean us whiteys are just wannabees, but you'd prolly be accused of making some kind of "statement", no? Even if you got nothin' to say?

Just wanted to play the "off his rocker" card and do it De Niro style like in Taxi Driver. I used to shave the sides and wear one long pony tail. The think about 'hawks is they used to be wore by fellas off doin' some dirty work and were out of their heads a bit. But seein' as I'm tryin' to get back to some balance wouldn't that mean i need to keep my hair?

I think your e-mail address is still in my contacts. I'll give it a try sometime and we'll see. Hooray for payday and the days off. Have lots of fun. Been to the lake yet this year?

It's kinda hard to fake a 'hawk MSG. Maybe I'll try one on for size in the shower.

ADD: Joins in happy dance for Mavs. Somebody did it for me recently and ya gotta pay it forward sometime.

No no NV a faux hawk ...here I'll show you
Faux Hawk - A haircut that is a mock version of a full Mohawk (see Mohawk definition below). Referred to as "chicken hawks" by traditional Mohawk wearers. U.S. soccer player Clint Mathis was famous for his spiked blonde faux hawk which he wore in 2002 during competitions.

A faux hawk, unlike a full blown Mohawk, has a center strip of hair that snakes down the center of their head and is sculpted into a stiff center spike with pomades, gels or waxes. In the faux hawk the either side of the head is cut close with about 1/4 to 1/2 inches of hair remaining. The sides extend up to the top of the head and merge into the center strip of hair that may extend up off the head by 2 to 4 inches. Depending on the natural texture of the hair, the center strip will be worn lightly spiked or densely curled.

Another version of the Faux Hawk was the messy hawk where the center hair was worn softer and tousled and less spiky. Nick Lachey was known for his version of a messy hawk which was also referred to as messy spikes.

Huh...

Something tells me I'll get my ass kicked just for thinking of doing it because I would in fact be kicking my own ass.

Seems it can be pulled off by trendy, pretty, and little Emo boys. But seein' as I am neither one... yeah.

I hate this part of being a guy. There really is no way to change my look at all. Sure I can buy new clothes, but Wal Mart is the only place in town unless I decide on finding Wezstern wear but the pants aren't too, well, fitting?

A new pair of shoes always makes me feel better but that would require driving to the Tall and Fat store in Reno and gas just costs so much.

Think I'll do some exfoliating with my evening drink after a good workout. That sounds nice.

Faux-hawk! *snirk*

So hair in the self-image versus projectd image arena. People do treat you different. (MsQ did an unintentional experiment a few weeks back. She had to clean up one of our record storage sites--nasty business--and wore jeans to work for about two weeks. When she could dress stylish again--wowsers!--she said it was amazing how many doors would get opened for her.) People who don't know me leer at me (being a guy I'm too stupid to be offended and kinda like it.) Others, usually "familiars" want to rub my head. I get "okays" and thumbs up and all kinds of positive "sign language".

If not for the constant breeze up there now I'm no different. On the inside. So when I had LONG hair, I looked maybe like a slacker and people didn't expect much. When I switched to Businesslike Proper, my banter at meetings was sometimes jarring. Now I'm a skinhead. Not that kind, but just looking at me how could you tell? (okay the eyes would give it away, but not if I was in character!!!)

So Joe, the hawk might give you a fresh perspective. It might also invite attention. Pleasant sometimes maybe not so pleasant others. I have a genuine FBI cap that MsQ got me that she refuses to let me wear in downtown Detroit. Like it was a bullet magnet or something If you feel the need to liberate some hair, go for it. (Eventually the novelty wears off.) But people's expectations of us sometimes change with the appearance we have, accurate or not. Being brown I'm sure you've had a few of those interactions.
