Body count as of end of hour 6:
Bad Guys: 10 Jack: 7

"Every day I smoke two hundred cigarettes and one hundred cigars and drink a bottle of whisky and three bottles of wine with dinner. And dinner is meat...RAW meat. The cook serves me an entire animal and I fight it bare-handed and tear off what I want and eat it and have the rest buried, In NEW JERSEY! For H.A.T.E!" - Dirk Anger, Nextwave #1

Body count as of end of hour 5:
Bad Guys: 9 Jack: 7

Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. is on FOX 5 in DC right now - I thought Marvel burned every copy of this movie.... David Hasslehoff - you're so dreamy when talking with a cigar clenched between your teeth.

Someone gave Uwe Boll more money to make another bad videogame movie, and then convinced a bunch of known actors to sink low enough to star in it:

In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Movie

Wierd:

Mike Tyson Punch Out in Concert

I want to own this:

LOADED BIBLE: JESUS vs. VAMPIRES ONE-SHOT
Written by Tim Seeley, art by Nate Bellegard and Mark Englert, cover by Stefano Caselli.
In the near future, the United States is ruled by bloodsucking vampire hordes. Only one man can end their reign of terror: Jesus H. Christ. A tale of war, love, religion and severed heads, the controversial Loaded Bible answers an age-old question: "What Would Jesus Do?" Answer: He'd kick vampire ass.
48 pages, $4.99, in stores on April 19.

Hour 3:

How long does it take for Jack to go from assassination suspect to back in charge…

Good to see Doug from Mind of the Married Man getting some work.

Body count as of end of hour 3:Bad Guys: 6          Jack: 4

Hour 4:

10:06: Hobbit sighting!!!!!!!!!!

Body count as of end of hour 4:Bad Guys: 8          Jack: 6

Ninja vs Pirates: "When the most archetypal enemies in the universe clash for the ultimate battle, lives and love are on the line. This could be the most epic and important film of this century."

My favorite part:
"Ninjas like to hide in the rafters. So when you enter a room, shoot your muskets off into the air wildly."

Note: The movie is actually pretty terrible, but amusing.

And the season officially starts late…. (at least I’m watching a game with a player named “Justin Gage” in it)

On West Wing: CJ and Danny jaw… something about “bangin” being a euphemism.

Panthers win.

On West Wing: Will is awkward

Graphic violence! Viewer discretion! 18 months ago!

Hour 1: 7AM-8AM

7:02: Robin Wood!
7:07: “Have you arrested the person who did this?” Holy crap, Palmer was shot less than 5 minutes ago!
7:10: Chloe’s a slut!
7:15: Michelle’s still a hottie! Such an unintentional bad pun…
First commercial break body count:
Bad Guys: 2           Jack: 0
7:27: Best line so far: “I look like a wedding cake” So not only is the president a gigantic nutjob, but his wife actually makes him looks competent.
Second commercial break: still no hobbit sightings.
7:40something: Now we’re talking – Jack punches out a guy named Weaver, kidnaps a kid, and steals a helicopter. When does the shoosting begin?
Third commercial break: Danny and CJ are not eating dinner again. Apparently a potential nuclear meltdown trumps romance.
7:50: Edgar Styles is heartbroken. Time to crack some skulls Edgar…
7:59: What did Palmer know?
Hour 1 body count:
Bad Guys: 2          Jack: 3

Hour 2: 8AM-9AM

8:00: Annoying teenager B is thrown up against wall. Again.
8:07: “The man does have a history of insubordination.” There’s an understatement. It must be refreshing to start a season as a rogue agent
8:15: Chloe = exposition girl.
8:17: Wayne Palmer = Gary Payton.
There aren’t a lot of clock tickers…
8:28: Still no hobbit sightings…
8:36: Did Jack just take out a baggage handler?
8:45: How in the hell did those two become the first couple?
8:55: Jack has a tender, fatherly moment.
8:59: What, a mole? They’ve never done that before. Still no hobbits!
Body count as of end of hour 2:
Bad Guys: 4          Jack: 3

Major props to the Steelers and their awesome (though harrowing) upset win over the Colts.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

This is kind of cool. Here's a list of the National Film Registry at the Library of Congress; all these movies have been deemed cool enough to keep for FOREVER!

Happy New Year! (I know, a day late, so sue me)

One of the funniest quotes of last year (and last week):

Gup: Who brought a drinking game to a party that there's kids at?
Tim: I dunno, who brought chocolate covered pretzels to a party that there's fat people at?
