Headline: Goat Apprehended

This blew my mind... causing me to laugh uncontrollably and have slight anxiety at the same time (don't ask why).  Check out the following link: Suspect Transforms into Goat.

Ridiculous!!!

Favorite Primetime Network TV Shows... at the moment

In no particular order (only listed currently aired shows):

  • The Office-- Hilarious and sooo true at times!
  • Bones-- Like the chemistry between the main characters and it doesn't hurt that Dr. Bones is hot.
  • The Mentalist-- Even a guy like me can't resist the Australian's (Simon Baker) charm.
  • All CSI's-- In the following order 1. Original 2. NY 2. Miami, easy to watch.
  • Lost-- Have been hooked since the first season and like everyone else, just want answers!
  • Numbers-- I'm not very good at math, but the characters make it a fun show to watch.
  • American Idol-- Not the early episodes with the auditions... I start to really tune in when the top 12 are chosen.
  • Family Guy-- A Rhode Island guy can't resist all of the Ocean State humor and social commentary littered throughout this hilarious cartoon!

The Office: Season 5, Episode 12 (Prince Family Paper)

Just watched the new episode of the Office.... great as always.  Loved the sharks, licking lips, and Dwight chasing Michael around the office and outside.  Oh yea, Hilary Swank is attractive.... NOT HOT!

Netflix on a Mac.... finally!

Just a quick note about how much I love Netflix... I'm a night owl, so long after everyone else in my household has begun dreaming I'm still up, not ready to call it a night.  Sometimes I might get lucky and find a CSI or a good movie I haven't seen in the wee hours of the morning on TV, but most of the time I resort to poking around my iPhone hoping an app will keep me interested until I can finally fall asleep.

I've enjoyed Netflix's movie delivery service for a couple of years now and was extremely excited when the whole 'watch instantly' concept was released; however, much to my dismay, it was not ready to be used on a Mac... BUMMER!  Well, a couple of months ago, Netflix finally got its act together and worked with (get this) Microsoft to get Netflix running on a Mac via Silverlight!

The reason I write this is that I have been taking this newfound abundance of movies at my fingertips for granted.  Being able to watch instantly has added great value to my subscription and will keep me on as a subscriber for many years to come.... next step I'm waiting for is Netflix streaming to my PS3 (rather than the 360), so I can watch the instant movies on the big screen!!
