Don’t Lick the kleenex and Don’t Blink
That’s my useful advice for the day. Moistening a bit of Kleenex to clean up, well, anything, makes good sense, unless your kleenex is anti-viral, because licking it tastes foul. It’s probably not bad for you, but still. Ick.
In other news, Tom didn’t win millions of dollars, so I still don’t have a Pony, but that’s probably OK because it’s been really cold out.
Also, on the good entertainment front, we had an overactive bout of screen watching last week that included seeing Juno on the big screen, and the recent Dr. Who episode “Blink” on the telly, among other things. Juno was excellent — good fun indie 16-year-old-pregnant-teen-angst film (a category unto itself) which you should really watch, especially if you’re Autumn, or someone like that. (Note to Mom and Dad: Do not watch this film).
The Dr. Who episode (“Blink”, if you missed it last paragraph), which Andrew turned us onto, is one of the best hours of Science Fiction (sorry Lu) out there these days. I’m sure there’s a .torrent out there somewhere you can find it on if you don’t get a version of the BBC, or if you’re impatient. Go find it now. NOW! And watch it. And don’t Blink.
Off ya go.
The initial show of the new series, broadcast on Saturday, featured a kissogram, a naked Doctor and a “sexed up†Tardis.Throughout the special 65-minute episode, The Eleventh Hour, in which Doctor Who had 20 minutes to save Earth from aliens identified as the Atraxi, his new companion, Amy Pond, was revealed as a kissogram dressed in a skimpy policeman’s outfit, complete with mini-skirt and handcuffs. In 1 scene, Amy, played by the actress Karen Gillan, told the Doctor that her kissogram repertoire also included nuns and nurses’ outfits. Come across out more at Sci Fi Fan.
