The Big Show
Most days, I’m pretty well fed up with humanity.
Other days, I am immensely grateful to be part of such a vastly entertaining group.
Executive Summary: a 13-year-old boy has a very treatable type of cancer. But the first round of chemo made him sicker. (It’s called “nausea”, and is a common side effect of the chemo.) So the family declined treatment on religious grounds. The boy is a Medicine Man in some kind of native-American-ish cult. A judge ordered him to undergo chemo. Now he and his mother are fleeing.
For those who don’t know me at all well, I vote Let Him Die. Darwinism, remember? Let’s flush some of these substandard genes out of the system.
The funny part to me is that they want to rely on alternative treatments that they discovered on the internet. Science is bad when it comes to medicine, but good when it comes to technology to use in order to prove that science is bad.
I love it so much that my heart grew three sizes today. Love love love love. You just do your thing, Humanity. I’ll make popcorn.

Den of Uniquity
Here’s something for the “I want to be unique, just like everyone else” crowd: Where all boys end up nowadays
If everyone runs in the same direction, it’s called a stampede, and you are still part of the herd. Take that, Austin, Jaydin, Jordan, Brendan. Et al.
Recommendations and Caveats 3
TV Show: 24: Season 7
Okay, so Tony Almeida is back. Yes, he died in Season 5, but that is easily overcome when ratings are on the line. The day starts out with Jack appearing before a Senate committee to answer for all his crimes against humanity, but then of course he must dash off to save the world yet again. A key subtext to the entire season is the debate between lawfulness, represented by some by-the-book FBI agents, and pragmatism, as demonstrated by Jack and Chloe.
We have a new President, Allison Taylor, whom I liked (although not as much as David Palmer). And the President has a daughter, which brings us to-
Caveat: Olivia Taylor
Dumb Chicks must be part of some Hollywood formula of which I am unaware. (Maybe that’s why they are having such trouble with the Harry Potter movies. They probably refer to it as “The Hermione Granger Dilemma”.)
At any rate, if Olivia Taylor and Kim Bauer ever actually met, the edifices of order would simply collapse to dust. Instaspontaneously.
The two hour finale aired last night, and the entire season is available on DVD today.
