24

Last week 24 premiered. I think this is the best show that's been on TV over the last several years. In terms of hooking you in, it is unmatched. For now Jack's pretty messed up after some time in a Chinese prison. He's back but not quite as sharp as before it would seem. Last week he was ready to call it quits for good until he changed his mind when at the end of the show he watched a nuke explode. I'm pretty sure he should be blinded by this, but since this is fiction he probably won't be. I'd have to see it again but I think you could even see a reflection of the mushroom cloud in his eyes as it happened.

As usual for this show a main character has died already. I'm going to be upset if Chloe gets killed somehow this season. I think she's my favorite character that's still alive. She's not usually in harms way back at CTU headquarters but she could get fired. That seems more likely but there are always surprises. CTU headquarters isn't necessarily safe either as we have seen before.

PJ Harvey

I've spent some time at YouTube recently. This is pretty obviously apparent from my recent posts. A few weeks ago I picked up the PJ Harvey DVD called, "Please Leave Quietly" that covers the Uh Huh Her tour. That DVD is awesome. I've been playing it a lot lately and parts of it over and over. Here's a clip not from the DVD but from Letterman. This clip is sort of YouTube quality and it pales to watching the DVD version of the same song but it's pretty good anyway.

VW Un-Pimped Ads

These ads are awesome.

Get a Mac Ads

These ads are just lame.I think it's supposed to make the Apple look like the cool, easy to use computer while the PC is the nerdy guy with all the problems.I'm waiting for the day the news comes out that the actor that represents the Apple is arrested for possessing marijuana. Just like that actor that was that was in the Dell ads that always said, "Dude. You're gettin a Dell" he'll disappear forever along with these stupid advertisements. Yeah that'll be the day.
