I like Serial(s)

• They engage me.
• House, Scrubs, Heroes, Seinfeld, these are all shows I have been deeply engaged in at one time or another. They make you (or me) feel like I (or you) has friends. That’s why people watch shows with laugh tracks.  
• My spell checker says I spelt ’sniffles’ wrong. Apparently it shouldn’t have a s-e-i-n-f-e-l-d.
• This is why spell check hasn’t yet replaced common sense.

• Whenever I see the word TV I automatically think the V is a set of antennae.
• Why are there child actors but no child directors? Doesn’t that say something about the amount of talent acting requires relative to directing?
• Why is it that every TV show title is a bad pun? Is that some kind of law?

Sick

I am sick. Or, rather, my throat is sick. The rest of me is fine. I feel like I could run a mile (I can’t really) if it weren’t for the hacking cough every few minutes. I bought a book recently. It’s a book on Mythology from DK, and encompasses all kinds of heroes and gods and such. Quite a few stories (Gilgamesh, etc…) had stories of a great flood in them. Which got me thinking…Why doesn’t the book have the Torah/Bible stories in there? Without even questioning their validity, aren’t they just as mythological as Odin or Raven the Trickster god? Because nowhere in the book do they even mention whether or not the stories are real, and nowhere to they mention Christianity w/out the phrase “Before Slovakia was taken over by Christianity, they had a rich mythological heritage” or some such flapdoodle.No, it’s a great book. But it does confuse me so.
