Ooooh! Did you watch the Golden Globes last night? Did you? Did you?

Hell, no! 24 was on!!

I never watch awards shows.  The spectacle of beautiful people giving each awards bores me.  It's so much more entertaining to do anything else (load the dishwasher for instance) and just read whatever Katie says about it over at www.yuckysaladwithbones.com.   Especially this year, when I had my annual fill of looking at pretty people in pretty clothes while I watched the Devil Wears Prada.

And I wouldn't watch anything else while 24 is on.  I would've missed seeing L.A. go up in a mushroom cloud!!
Zoinks!!

Call me a man, you wouldn't be the first, but given the choice of entertainment between lovely ladies emoting about their relationships and burly guys blowing stuff up, I will go with explosions every time.

I like watching people run around, frantically waving guns, driving wrecklessly, cutting each other with quick punches and witty insults.  All the better if they blow stuff up.  I avoid most 'chick flicks' like the 'bubonic plague'.  I loved Dianne Lane as Lori Darlin' in Lonesome Dove, but I'm not gonna spend two minutes with her Under the Tuscan Sun.  Not unless you can promise me Bruce Willis is going to show up and dynamite something.  Or that bald guy from the Transporter movies.  I can't remember his name but he's hot.  Or anything with Ewan MacGregor.  Johnny Depp is always great but Chocolat blew chunks.

My idea of a great screen romance is Wash and Zoe from Firefly.

Now I have to go to Zack's game at Washburn and we'll see if I need proper documentation to get into that gym.
