Do I have to be labelled a anti-feminist, ageist, sexist or racist because I don't like a political candidate?

Can my not liking Hillary just be that? It's not anything specfic, it's not that she's a woman, it's not anything realy, I just don't like her.

Okay okay I hate the wide eyes possessed smile she gives people when shaking hands in crowds that seems to say "here is me acting to pay attention to what you're saying, or caring that you're here". (It's if anything a bad politician face and she should really try harder.) And that she's acing like she didn't vote for the war… it's okay to admit you were fooled with the others Hil. But My not liking you has nothing to do with what isn't between your legs.

And of course I can't vote McCain after Bush, and his recent efferts to snuggle with him. I do genuinely like the man, her reminds me of my deceased father in law,  I hold him no Ill will. I actually in some ways even admire him – but I just don't like this politics and recent moves to seduce the far right when he started doing a couple years ago and leaning away from his moderate stances. It has nothing to do with age.

I'm just sick of the blamescaping (did I make this word up just now?).

Schedule it I dare you!

A&E Television Network  – Andromeda Strain

Tivo lists only one title, not which PART it is, and the show doens't say in the decriptions. So I went to the tlink above. Helpful except… there is no Wed 28th 1am airing… ther eis a 11pm and a 3am.

Now what programming geniuses? You're plugging this to high heaven how about letting us in one whaen it's on or what parts are on!

Okay let me ask

Does ANY one else watch 'Reaper' on CW?

We freaking love that show, it's a highlight of our week since I discovered the first episode (I was watching i ton tivo and when it restarted in reruns I got Mr Man hooked on it in one ep) and I have to say I called Sam's little secret like three weeks ago… but his "parents" are demons? It looks so. Eeee!

Please tell me I'm not the only person watchign this. It's a great show.

Also good show on CW is Everyone Hates Chris  – that's a little gem I tell ya. Everyweek is fabulous. 

Both of them I think are being done a disservice by not getting on a bigger network. They are every bit as good as the stuff I watch on the big Four.

Still alive.

  • This blog MIGHT blog look diff. I updated to the new  wordpress and the old template is…limited at best. So it's time for a new look. Trying to find a template with good bones that I like to start anew with. Don't be surprised if it changes on you between visits. Whatever template I go with will end up majorly edited and regraphic'ed . I'm trying out various ones trying to decide which one works the best for me…

  • Everytime to go to post something anymore it seems too much trouble and other times I realized I've posted it before. I've been keeping busy on small things, selling more pincushions than I can make and thats the main reason for not posting, hard to type when you are handsewing.
  • In other news I'm still doing the Scifi Cast – week seven who'de thunk it? We even purportedly have some listeners! If you watch Battlestar Galactica we're the nerds for you, no minutia left untouched! And I only wax poetic about Baltar every OTHER week or so.

That's all for now, I'll post more this week honest!

Now this is just funny

I am big a Battlestar Galactica fan (I even do a podcast on it with two other geek pals) so when this came over the Google alert I knew I wanted to post it…

frack

Commander Adama has a shaving mirror in his cabin. This mirror is made by IKEA, and is a model called “Fräck” (spelling according to IKEA Web site). This word is similar to “frak” (spelling according to the subtitles with an “a” and without a “c”, which is the primary vulgarity in the Battlestar Galactica universe. Link

Now that’s funny. I know one of the set decorators had to do it on purpose… love it.
