One more year. . . . . . . .

So I have a few hours left of my birthday. I am sitting at the kitchen table having some Ben & Jerry's (Chocolate chip cookie dough, yum) thinking about the last 12 months. It has been interesting (a little good a little bad a little shitty), but the thing is that I see: it is all about the decisions you make.

So instead of whinnying about the way things are, I am gonna work on making good decisions (and sticking with them).

Bring on another year!

Aye! It be talk like a Pirate day!

My pirate name is:

Bloody Davy Vane

Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. You tend to blend into the background occaisionally, but that's okay, because it's much easier to sneak up on people and disembowel them that way. Arr!

Pick The Hit!

So another new TV season is upon us. What will be a hit, and what will disappear after one showing?
Each year my brother and I (we are huge pop culture freaks) talk about which shows we think suck (Prison Break, oh come on, this show was gonna blow right) and which ones we love (we thought William Ficthner was killer on Invasion, apparently we were alone on this, by the way we loved Friday Nights Lights, and I loved Heroes, but my brother, mmmm, not so much).

While we can usually spot quality TV, guessing which show will be a hit with America, that is a whole different ballgame.


So this year we wanted to included you in our pop culture quiz. Check out the new offerings this fall and, tell us what shows you think are great and which ones you think will be a hit with with America*
