What's up?

Hey.  I'm sitting at my new PC enjoying a week off of work.  My job was all encompassing the last two weeks and I figured I'd use some of the 180 hours of PTO I had to avoid a higher bill at the mental institute.

Speaking of medical bills, I watched Sicko, a documentary on the US health care system by Michael Moore.  If you live in the US and plan on getting old or sick anytime soon, you need to see this film to find out just how stupid we are.  Universal Health Care would probably be the silver bullet that might help our citizens to begin to compete in today's global economy.  Yeah, insurance companies would be out of business, but who cares.  You won't either when you hear stories of people who died because their insurance company wouldn't help them out.  Canada, France and Norway seem like they have their shit together.  Why can't we? 

Heroes finished it's season last night.  Another cliffhanger to leave us in suspense for the rest of the year.  Bastards.  I kinda saw the deaths coming but I'm saddened to see Nathan gone.  Some how I don't think we've seen the last of Adam though.

The Big Bang Theory is a great new show.  I'm full of nerdy tendencies so I easily relate to the characters.  Despite that, it has a lot of great sitcom dialog.  Much like how Back to You is enjoyable.  I think their seasons are over or they're on hiatus because I don't seem new episodes in my DVR.  I guess TV is going to be a bit low on value for a while.  Oh well. 

I'm also kinda sick of my website.  I need a new skin/scheme/something.  More on that some day later. 

P.S. I have a hell of a time with the Headlines over there.  There is no RSS/XML/WTF standards out there.  Some sites use é when they should use é while others do vice versa which means this page never validates.  I've removed all of my attempts to circumvent this.  What you see is what I get.
