Watching the Daily show
What is up with Lewis Black's hair? My grandmother had that look, too, usually every Friday after a trip to the beauty shop. He's talking about Darwinism. The hair is destined for extinction.
Stephen Colbert is my hero.
Oh, scary day. A Panel on Evolution. Dr. Larson is pro-evoluation, the token scientist in the crowd. Dr. Dembski is the token Baptist, an IDer (intelligent design). He went to Baptist Seminary, but I swear there was a programmer on my cube row at IBM who looked just like him..... Dr. Crystal is the token woo-woo. Dr. Larson looks like he needs a drink. Stewart asks hard-hitting question to Dr. Dembski. "Why a scrotum?" Dembski (dodging the hanging curveball): Intelligent design is not committed to every aspect of design." I'm waiting for Stewart to pull out the "kabuki dance" soundbite. For those of you who don't watch C-SPAN, the "kabuki dance" is an elaborate Japanese drama with masks, referenced today during today's Senate Supreme Court Hearings. By the Honorable Senator from Delaware, Joe Biden.
On that note, I bid all a soft goodnight, and don't let the kabuki's bite.

Anna, you don't have TV? I'm curious why. I had a friend who didn't have a TV because she said if she had a TV, she'd never do anything else, so she didn't have one. Some day I'm going to use a character like that, because I think it's fascinating. A choice between societal acceptance vs. self-control (or lack thereof).
Anyway, I think I'll check out the America: The Calendar, but hopefully they'll do one in 2006. We have tickets to the show in October and I'm very excited. Will report back after the show.
Anna,
Read your blog. Very cool and I understand your choice. I think I'm a middle of the roader. I think TV is a time-hog, but I also try and limit the number of things I'm allowed to get sucked into it.
There's a line on Rescue Me, "when I was growing up, we only had four TV channels." That always cracks me up because it's so very true.
