ooooh, blake! hi blake.

Only one slight surprise on Idol tonight. ( But just slightly. )

Meanwhile, Lost was a big letdown after last week. ( Meh. )

There's now video of the XF2 pics, though it's largely anticlimactic.

What is not anticlimactic at ALL is that FREAKING AWESOME new BSG S4 promo!!! ZOMG. It's embedded behind the cut for easy viewing. ( Whee! )

Someone set off an IED in Times Square today, so, you know, that's nice. At least they did it at 3:30 in the morning so it didn't interfere with rush hour. The bomber must have been a commuter. Best comment, by someone named Stan at the NYT blog: "Probably one of those weird Staten Island separatist groups, tired of being ignored." Heh.

There's going to be a 24 prequel movie this fall. Awesome.

Jeremy Piven gets caught cheating on his girlfriend. He is such a dog. But hot.

Babies and lemons. (Video link.) Pretty hilarious and adorable.

I love Gail Collins a lot. She is a much needed dose of sanity and humor in this presidential race.

The top ten rap songs white people love. Which is hilarious, because many of those are indeed my favorite rap songs. LOL. "Bust a Move" = greatest rap evah!

Speaking of race, some celebs are starting a new website for women over 40. If you go to the site itself to see the contributors, it's all white women except for Whoopi. They're not only all white, they all look alike! Here's hoping they get a bit more diverse as time goes on.

And just for fun, here's a list of amenities at the newly-opened Plaza Hotel. Sigh.

So very glad tomorrow is Friday...and really hoping I can get enough done that I don't have to bring work home. We'll see.
