  1. If it has been mentioned, I apologize -- but Hulu has started the second season of their original series "Prisoners Of War"... awesome show.  If you haven't seen it, get yourself a free trial and check it out.  This is my new favorite show now.

  2. I really did plan on being around more this offseason, that hasn't really worked as I planned.  Between work and moving... slowly getting back into a routine.  I'll get to 10K sooner or later, till then -- I'll just enjoy the slow journey. ;)

  3. Lol. I have never heard of a cat in a lunch bag.

    It's a fairly large lunch bag, I can fit about four plastic containers, a mason jar (smoothie) and a cold pack inside of it. When I bring it home, I unpack it and leave the top unzipped to let it air out so it doesn't stink. Our cat, Raven, she knocks it over and climbs inside and lays down in it.

    I zipped her up inside of it once, she just laid back down. I believe she just likes the way the liner feels, or perhaps because it's "cool" from the ice pack. Either way, it's pretty funny.

    She also likes laying inside of Cherry Coke boxes. My wife and kids enjoy drinking soda, and the Cherry Coke boxes open from the top, so once they unload them into the fridge, they place the box on the floor near the recyclable bins... she climbs inside and uses it for a bed as well.

    She also uses my wife's purse. And I've caught her laying in our youngest son's dresser drawers when he leaves them open.

    Yes... Raven thinks she rules the roost.

  4. Definitely. That scene was incredible, which made me wish that they had used the whole thing throughout the rest of the movie. I get that it was supposed to be a surprise, but still..they could've done SOMEthing with it.

    And which part are you talking about? The whole ending threw me for a loop, pun intended :)

    When the little boy was falling down the stairs... right before he did the THING to the guy that was hunting the main character. It seemed as though the mother got up and started running for the little boy but instead she was trying to get the main character out of the way of the "TK-blast zone".

    I actually was waiting for the main character, the younger one, to stop a bullet with it or something... very disappointing aspect of the whole movie. Floating quarters and Zippo lighters... what a wasted opportunity.

  5. That movie could have used the whole TK thing a heck of a lot more, but they made one cool scene out of it...which lasted like 20 mins. Definitely could've done more with that.

    Other than that, it was a pretty good movie. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is quickly becoming the man.

    Agreed. It was almost as if they threw the TK thing into the mix at the last moment before they started production. Granted, the particular scene you are referencing was pretty freaking awesome.

    (Did you think the mother was running to catch her son, too? I did... That was a curveball!)

  6. So, you're one for the Andy Griffith Show. That's good, as I enjoy it, also, from time to time.

    In regard to the Big Bang Theory, I have to admit, Sheldon is the straw that stirs the drink - much like J.R. Ewing was on Dallas, or even Sheriff Taylor in Mayberry.

    In a television world that with "Twilight" wannabes, Glee, shoot-em-up series by the dozen and series that you watch the first few episodes and you know it's getting cancelled --

    -- it's nice to watch a show that was a great source of entertainment for years. I've actually got my children hooked on it now as well.

    They still don't believe me that Opie is Richie Cunningham on Happy Days. That guy has been in television forever.

    Sheldon is what Charlie was to Two & A Half Men -- that show is really tanking with Ashton.

    I hope Sheldon never leaves.
