A mouse friend of mine shares his disappointment about the fighting girls...

Faaaan-TASTIC!
In my head I hear the meter-peaking Looney Tunes "byeeoOURW-BROWMP!"sound when she hit.

Until I figure out how to get his link to appear somewhere permanent, make sure to hit Zac's "DataWhat?" blog.
Like, every day. To see how much his blog has influenced my Blognciousness.

First Trivial Observation Put On The Blog Instead Of Mass-Emailed To Friend's During Their Workday:
Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh have the same weird pronunciations when it comes to S's. It's this weird sound like they're kind of puckering their mouths due to extra spittle produced from too many cigars and talking like country club members a la Ted Knight/Judge Shmails in Caddyshack. Slightly more tension and protrusion in the bottom lip than the top. A slur about half as intense as a good Sean Connery impression, but more 'Ssssh' sound passing the front top teeth, than a "SHHH"ing like ol' 007. It sounds like their mouths move the same way that Tim Matheson's does when he talks. Watch 'Animal House' or anything he's in and you'll see.
Tim was this guy ("Otter") in Animal House:
And speaking of, check out this cool site with pics from when the Animal House cast reunited for the done-up DVD when it came out recently. Cool to see what they look like now. They did a parade again with floats like the movie in the same college town. My girlfriend worked and took classes at that school. Up in Oregon.
She says she never went to any Delta parties... but the way she can drink me under the table, I dunno...
**FRIDAY REMINDER!**
The new Battlestar Galactica series (given the greenlight after last Christmas's mini-series) starts tonight. 8:30, SciFi channel.
It's the re-imagined BG, and last year's mini-series was extremely well-done.
Great acting and writing, great tasteful effects. A grittier, updated, more realistic take on the 'ragtag fleet trying to escape destruction and find this "Earth".' This production team did an excellent job retooling this. Nothing at all bordering on campy or 'Star Wars for Sunday Night" like the 70s show was.
You wouldn't think Starbuck being a girl would work, but it really really did.
Edward James Olmos, (the Latino captain from Miami Vice), plays Commander Adama (the Lornbe Green role). He's a tough old coot and is superb.
Hope you enjoy if you check it out.
