Very quickly:



Mostly enjoyed the 24 movie tonight, except for the parts that felt a bit too much like "the big strong white man is the only one who can help these simple Africans," meh. And it really did just feel like a prequel to the season. But dude, Jack taking out like 10 guys at once and then cracking the other guy's neck with his thighs (AGAIN)? What more can I ask for out of a couple hours of 24? Awesome. Now, is it too much to ask for that Jack will have two adopted African sons next season? Heeeeee.

Also, boy, it was such science fiction to think that someone would really get in trouble for not answering to a federal subpoena! Everybody knows that federal subpoenas are merely suggestions now, and you can just decide not to show up and you'll just get sent a strongly worded letter from Congress. Just ask Harriet Meiers and Karl Rove.

Love Cherry Jones and am SO HAPPY she is going to be president next season instead of Powers Boothe, who I can't stand. Robert Carlyle was great, nice to see him playing a good guy for a change. Gil Bellows was icky, but he was supposed to be. I was amused that Jerry Jax from General Hospital was in it for ten seconds. (Although not as amused as I am that Amelia from GH is one of the regulars next season.) And nice to see you for two minutes, Peter MacNicol.

Bring on the new season!

Have you seen this news story about a mystery piano left in the woods? Freaky.

You can see a promo for Law & Order: UK here. Too bad Jamie doesn't speak in it. I hope it turns up on a US channel at some point.

Some companies are getting rid of clamshell packaging. Thank god.

No more Amtrak for Joe, woe. Speaking of Joe, the macros in this post had me howling.

Cool Anya photo shoot for ANTM fans.

So, it turns out that in Star Wars, Han Solo was originally conceived by George Lucas as being married to a Wookiee. NO REALLY. Much as I hate to link to io9, they're the ones with the scoop, here. Oh, George. You freak.

Happy Birthday [livejournal.com profile] kopernik! Hope it was a stress-free, fun day.

My guess about the piano: someone setting up for a student film. "It'll be safe till tomorrow. *Nobody* comes here."

Speaking of things left in the woods: did you read about the meat (http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2008/11/21/mystery_meat_has_framingham_all_abuzz/)? [More meat (http://www.metrowestdailynews.com/news/x2067099669/More-meat-found-in-Centre-common-being-tested)]
