Down the Tubes

God help us, TV is finally headed down the tubes(pun intended) due to the writer's strike. Seemingly every show on television is calling it quits. Basically, the writers of various TV shows are refusing to write shows until they get a raise. What this means for us is the demise of shows like Jimmy Kimmel, David Letterman, the Colbert Report, SNL, The Office, Scrubs, ER, and 30 Rock to name a few. This may seem like such a big deal now, and I don't deny that it is, but I find the outcome predictable. TV is such a big market that the powers that be will eventually give into this strike. They may be able to scrape by a couple more weeks showing re-runs, but the business will eventually die out until new shows air. But it looks like we have to put up with some dreadful TV for a while.

Colorful Personalities


What's your favorite color? You here this questions at anything from preschool to formal icebreakers. I recently saw this question posted on a friend's blog as a sort of ice breaker for his readers, but I realized that you can tell a lot about a person by their favorite color. People never seem to take questions seriously these days, so here's a way to find out about yourself and others with this question. One can even tell what kind of attitudes they will have an all sorts of things like that. I have a link to a site where you can click on your favorite color and get instant feedback. And if you haven't realized already, my favorite color is blue! N Joy!

November


Well November is upon us and it is my duty to let everybody know what I think about it.

For me November brings:


Fall Back (you gained an hour of sleep Saturday Night)

My Uncle's Brithday

The begginning of winter running

An excuse to pig out on turkey- THANKSGIVING

I'm in full swing football mode with the world series over

Finally teachers aren't afraid to give out normal amounts of homework. (a ton)

I get my mind into thinking about 2008, Christams, and things like that

The weather will still be nice for about two more months


Tell me what November is like for you!
