Blog blog

Trying to help my sister set up a blog. It's taking a while. Program has been extracting forever. I may be here late.

So in meantime, figured I'd start arduous process of resurrecting this blog. Because I thought it'd be funny to toss up a few posts while we waited to do just one in the new blog.

Random thoughts:
*Pirated captain's plane back to Vermont home hijacked and redirected to Cuba. Not really, but would be funny in an unfortunate way.

*Fox better not cancel Dollhouse. Would be nice to keep Sarah Connor Chronicles, too. Otherwise, they join the list of all the other good shows Fox never gave a chance to, including Firefly, Wonderfalls, Andy Richter ... and just blame them for Pushing Daisies, too, even though they have nothing to do with it.

(Can't Fox cancel Fox News instead?)

*Brother in law is all fired up about something political. He wants a blog, too. I may be here all night.

*If Facebook is useful but ultimately an underachiever, what does that make twitter?

*If I am useful but ultimately an underachiever, what does that make [insert person I wish to mock here]?

*If you worked for a company that was owned by another company that was run by your father, would that be your parent's parent company? Or would that be the company that owns the company your father works for? What if it was the same company?

*I have 14 minutes left, according to my computer. No way I'll complete my bucket list in that little time -- especially considering item no. 1 is "create bucket list."

*Ever go to sportsjournalists.com? If 75 percent of the folks on there make up the braintrust of newspapers, it's no surprise that industry is imploding. Too bad, because there are so, so many great people in newspapers. And great newspapers.

*Brother in law says he checks google news every morning. He's not getting my help with any blog.

*Had turkey burgers made from ground turkey meat. Wonder if air turkey meat tastes different.

*"You bought a record player just to store in the desert?" -- something I just overheard. Can't really imagine what it means.

*Is planning a trip for the primary purpose of being able to blog it a worthy motivation? Methinks perhaps.

*Me: "Is this your Coke Zero?" Sis: "I don't do that!"

*Extracting (not the military kind, fortunately -- or the vanilla kind, unfortunately) finally done. Time to post this and get back to work on sister's blog.
