I just spent 10 minutes trying to find the precise time Autumn starts. That it took me that long in this day and age of the internets/Google abilities was quite alarming and quite frankly, I began to panic.
Ahhhhh, but now that I know the exact, precise moment in time that Autumn begins, I can go ahead and begin my annual embrace of the season.
I'm not really sure what it is. The combination of football, the anticipation of the holidays, Halloween included, the weather at least acting like it's going to change and of course, the colors of nature changing, just get me all mellow and peaceful this time of year. So much so, that I literally count down the days.
And it probably has to do with all the great memories of my life somehow having taken place during the final part of the year.
I won't go into a long drawn out thing about my personal beliefs here, (I lean towards the Buddhist persuasion of thinking) but I believe that Autumn is when I can see my ancestors and the echoes of my past in everything around me more than at any other time of year.
Yes, I know, that last statement was pretty out there, but, preside out there I do. <~~~~wins most commas in a sentence award.
But I digress...........

Lost
Battlestar Galactica
The Office
Rescue Me
Gilmore Girls
The Shield
The Wire
Do yourselves a favor and get some DVD action going with this list. I promise, you won't be dissapointed. Especially with The Wire. It's not just a tv show, it's a work of brilliant art.

I love Survivor. It's something I can watch with the whole family. My kids love it. Between this and Survivor Man on The Science Channel, I'm betting that one of my sons ends up ebing some sort of outdoor type dude who can build log cabins and find food in the asses of flowers and trees.
The whole seperated by race thing, totally blown way out of proportion. It hasn't even really been that much of an issue. Yet. And actually, it's interesting seeing the dynamic within each race's tribe. People of the same race may be more prejudice and have jacked up perceptions of each other than of that of a person of a different race. Whatever you define race as being, but that's another debate on someone else's blog.
And of course, which group looks like the biggest set of dipshits so far, The Spics. Purposely throwing a challenge so they can vote someone out??? Fools I say. That have no clue what is waiting for them down the line in show and they go ahead and purposely lose a player and become a man down? Again, fools I say.
See how much fun that sounds?
Survivor, still the best mindless adventure you can have on a Thursday night.

No travel this week, but next week, I'm off to San Diego for a few days.

i love fall! i have no idea why, but it just makes me smile. maybe it's 'cause i can turn off my ac, not have my heat on, put away the skanky tops that provide for minimal sweating while outside, bust out my sweaters, put away the shoes that require perfect pedicures, bust out the sneakers, and turn on the fireplace.
but really, i'm not sure.
survivor--racial profiling edition is pretty funny. haven't watched an episode, but it seems the asians have made coconut hybrid vehicles and are working on flow masters, the whites are using the blacks to do their challenges for them and then take the victory as their own, and the hispanics are too busy mowing all the grass on the island.
shit, was that un-pc of me?
PC?
That's someone else's blog. Not mine.
