It'll Never Fly

Sorry ’bout that folks. Bobtober has already begun, and here I am letting it pass by with barely a mention. The Riders went into a bit of a losing slump, and I didn’t feel like connecting to any of my friends out there in the ether. Then I got sick. Then I left the city for 5 days without an Internet connection. The good news is everything is back on the up and up. The Riders are back on a winning streak, and dangerously close to hosting a home playoff game for the first time since before Captain N: The Game Master hit the airwaves (now available on DVD). I’m still busy at work, and have a few other work-related things that I’ve been procrastinating over, so the updates still might be few and far between.

In other news, the new TV season has started, and the venerable favourites such as The Office, Corner Gas, Heroes, House, and Stargate Atlantis, have all started up again. And it wouldn’t be a new TV season if CBS didn’t have a new batch of “reality” TV to share with the masses, and so they have. There’s Survivor: China, but the big news is the new show, Kid Nation, which is basically Survivor meets Lord of the Flies, and I have to say, it’s right up there with Amazing Race as probably the most zany and quotable reality show out there. I never knew I wanted to see a bunch of kids cut the heads off of chickens, but now I’m glad I have. Eat your heart out, Mr. Linkletter.
