Quick DVD update - as Rocco reminded me, Thundercats has also been released on DVD - in a crappy Season 1, part 1 package.

Also, finally saw Entourage. And yes, I'm hooked.

One more down -

On Feb 12th, I put up a list of tv shows I'd love to see on DVD. So far, they've released Lois and Clark and Scrubs, and I get another on Tuesday!

Mind of the Married Man Season 1

You've probably already seen this, and I don't think tis the tko, that others are calling it:

Hitchens vs Stewart (that Jon guy) - From Crooks and Liars

also, does anyone remember seeing it when it aired? I could have swore Stewart put Hitchens in his place once with a line like "btw this is my audience" - but it does not seem to be here in this video. Could it have been edited, or was I jsut really tired when it was on originally?

Follow-up to the Robertson story - Chavez is calling him a terrorist!
So Robertson apologized: "I spoke in frustration that we should accommodate the man who thinks the U.S. is out to kill him."

Open Letter to the Big Guy

Hi God,

It's me, Dwain. I know I don't write as often as I should, but there is this crazy guy, and he totally thinks he has your number on speed dial. Can you let him know whats up? I'm not asking for anything hardcore, like an assassination of a foreign leader or mysterious and sudden deaths of Supreme Court justices, just a little common sense for one misguided dude who happens to have his own tv show. Thanks!

Robertson Calls for Chavez Assassination:

Pat Robertson, the television evangelist and Christian Coalition founder, has set off a diplomatic fracas with Venezuela by calling for the assassination of its populist president, Hugo Chavez.

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability," Robertson said Monday on his Christian Broadcasting Network. "We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with."

See link above for the whole freaking story.

I think I've seen this before, but it is still pretty funny:

(note: this site does not actually support ninjaism. In fact, we believe that it is an unnatural abomination, and should be snuffed out of existence. But watch the video anyway.)

I actually just happened to to catch a blurb about this in Thursday's Express and was like "holy crap, there a freakin' lego convention down the street from my house!" I of course had to go. I posted about 75 pics on ahoy-matey.com here:

Awesome (and more than a little wierd). Apparently it is in DC every year, so who knows, maybe Jibidy will show up there next year!
Oh, and yes, I'm back from the beach. :(
