Walking Dead- So was last weeks the last in the series? Lame. I want them to get a move on now things are concluded bar the final talk at the farm.

It continues in February.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I've got The Ref ready for my Christmas movie viewing tonight.

2nd best Xmas flick evah, nestled between Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and Bad Santa.

I know if somebody puts A Christmas Story in my DVD player, I'm going to throw the machine at them.

Word.  That shit is fucking terrible.  At my house at Christmas, there are only four movies: The Ref, Miracle on 34th Street (original), It's a Wonderful Life, and Scrooged.

I used to like A Christmas Story. Then TBS raped it with the 24 hour showings. Also USA with Elf.

Disney's Prep and Landing, which was a total blast last year, has a new episode for this season at 8:30pm.  Stolen classified Christmas technology.

After 5 minutes of Black Mirror

The Premise; A British Princess has been kidnapped by apparent terrorists who declare that they will kill her if the Prime Minister does not have sexual intercourse with a pig which is to be broadcast on all british TV stations.

I don't know if this is a serious drama or a dark comedy yet, this seems fucking epic.

Scrooged is a fine film.  Terribly underrated, then and--less so, but still--today.

May be my favorite Bill Murray movie.
