3 more years...
… of The Office (at least)! I just read that Steve Carrel signed a contract for 3 more years of The Office. This is great news for the survival of scripted comedy (I hope more people watch 30 Rock too). After I read the short article, I started to read the comments. Just about everything that gets posted on the web now has a comments section now (including this very post), and a lot of times...

“… like the corners have been softened to not intimidate your mom when she...”
– That is from one of the first articles I have read that really nailed what it is to be a true windows user and why Macs don’t appeal to us. We like to tweak and tinker… Sure we might break our computer in the process, but that’s half the fun. And people might say, “Why not...

“The Bat-plan was simple: Base-jump off one Hong Kong skyscraper, smash through...”

Combining some of my favorite things in one video… John Stewart, Politics, and Lost. If you haven’t seen Lost and intend to… don’t watch this video! “A polar bear on a tropical island?! There are so many reasons that’s amazing!”

Whoa! Spoiler Alert! Well I guess Niki isn’t dead… not that I’m all that surprised, but really they didn’t even bother hiding that. Or did they forget that she was in an explosion inside a building? She is basically the Hulk of the Heroes universe anyway. I’m also really thrilled that Hiro is getting an arch-nemesis.
