Marvelous Matt just showed up. We're in search for the critters with the fritters in the attic so I don't panic.

WBBL. (So much for getting some work done!)

The pitter-patter of the critters with the fritters - that's my first tongue-twister of the new year

Wow. That Warriors box set. Sword and Sandal. 13 discs. 50 movies. Only $27.00. What a steal!

If you're paying $27.50, you're paying too much, I got mine for $19.95 at Borders. I've also seen them at Half-Price Books for the same. I think I even once saw it at Best Buy (a while back) for the same.

It's not the Writers Strike that's killing TV, it's commercials. I watched a bit of Kathy Griffin last night on Bravo, but had to give up after one commercial break. I heard there are now sixteen minutes of commercial for every hour of TV. And they are always the same boring commercials at each break. Life is too short. These days it's just easier to wait six months, a year for a TV boxed set than to put up with the endurance contest that watching a TV show has become. Remember when there were only six one-minute commercials for every hour of TV and often, you got the host doing the commercial live.

New Year's Day greetings! I slept until 10am, which is unheard of for me. We're watching the Rose Parade and getting ready for the Capital One Bowl kickoff (Go Blue!). Need to get the chili simmering.

One reason I tape and then I can fast forward through a commercial....

Some of the local ads are so repetitive in this area I cringe when I see them during a newscast.

CP, I concur with your comments....

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #143 on:** January 01, 2008, 09:27:34 AM »

That is one nice thing about public television... You can sit down and actually enjoy a program and not be distracted by annoyingly bad commercials.

And the word of the day is: EBULLIENT!

Wayne found that, if he LET NUBILE kittens frolic and play on his bed, waking him up every morning, he would be in a more EBULLIENT mood for the rest of the day.

singdaw, all the catching up of posts will keep you out of mischief

I wouldn't bet on that.

Good morning. Oh, I guess it should be Good Afternoon.

In fact, isn't that you, drifting, right there in your avatar?

I remember taking that photo, many, many, many, many, many, many years ago.

How time flies, like a gazelle working for TWA!

What critters? What fritters?
I hope no one's talking left overs.
