| i love tv. not in the sense that i will turn it on, watch anything and
be happy. but there are a handful of shows that i will not miss for
anything. shows that i like so much that often my week is scheduled
around catching this one particular show. shows where i have not missed
the airing of a new episode for years. and i love that for each of
these shows, i have one or more people that are just as enthusiastic as
me. i love sending and getting those next day emails about last nite's
show.
a lower level show would be 24. i just got into this show this year. it
is the most farfetched and ridiculous show i have ever seen. even
more so than my favorite show (more on that later) and i have not
missed a goddamn episode. but if i did, i would get over it quickly.
a 2nd tier show would be arrested development or scrubs, what i think
are the two best comedies on the air. for arrested development, i have
mike and kai. odds are one of them caught it and will be down to talk
about it the next day. mike is a scrubs guy, too. he is my link to all
the shit i missed for season 1-3.
a show that i am not tied to in any real way but always seem to catch
is c.s.i. re-runs on spike. and impossible heists is quickly
catapulting it's way into my schedule.
and the god of them all. i will not miss this for anything in the
world. my favorite tv show ever- alias. this show is responsible for
one of my few bright spots at work on thursdays- emails from kathy.
topics range from how cold blooded jack is to how much of a whore
lauren was. always fun.
i just always find it interesting how the schedule of your favorite
shows becomes automatic. it becomes an innate ability to just know when
it's on by the feel of the day. they can make entire weeks bearable
because you know an episode will be on in just a matter of days. having
a dvr helps. tonite, we are taping scrubs so we can watch c.s.i. in the
other room. then we're going back to the living room to watch
impossible heists. ain't life grand?

| "TalkToAliens.com is a company that
will beam any message you want into outer space, so that you can 'talk
to the aliens.' The way it works is that you call their 1-900 number
(it'll cost you $3.99 a minute). The phone line is hooked up directly
to a parabolic antenna that beams your voice into space, live, as you
talk."
here is a picture of their "dish": http://www.talktoaliens.com/dish.html
i wonder if any cases of stockholm syndrome have been documented for alleged ufo abductees.
