That's actually my problem with it, it's a coda to Casino Royale. It does not stand on its own at all. Watched back to back with Casino it's just fine but watched along it's barely half a movie.

Anyone going to check out mockingbird lane? I am kind of intrigued by it.

Surprisingly I saw some good reviews for it but I'm not a fan of Jerry O'Connell and I think he's the new Ted McGinley so I'll be avoiding it.

My tv is on TBS from Seinfeld and some Tyler Perry show came on. I've never heard a louder, obtrusive, and overly used laugh track. Every time a character finishes a sentence it blasts the speakers.

I take it you didn't like Ted McGinley on Married with Children. I'm not the biggest Jerry O'Connell fan, but the concept interests me enough that I think it might be enjoyable.

Who has heard of XCOM? From what I'm hearing it is supposed to be sick, but I don't know much about it.

I'm about to take a vicodin. First time. I hope it's fun!

Big news guys - I've been promoted to Arch Mage of Skyrim!

No, its not that. It's that the pervasive theory thanks to jumptheshark.com was that Ted McGinley's mere presence caused shows to be canceled, not picked up, or to jump the shark. Jerry O'Connell seems to be a very cool person in real life and I love him on the Stern show (and he's an avid video gamer despite being p-whipped by Rebecca Romijn btw) but he just seems to be the kiss of death for most shows.

Send em my way

Gotcha. I know what you means when it comes to watching canceled shows. It's part of the reason I have kind of given up on Last Resort. I did end up watching Mockingbird Lane and thought it was a fairly decent pilot. I liked the depth they added to the characters in the new version and Portia De Rossi is smoking hot on the show.

Seriously, you need to "purge the system" of little Mak, Jr's. I had a friend who had one, and he didn't get them all out...9 monts later, child #4.

Put it this way...I had the day off, played it all day and I didnt realize it is now midnight, and I have to get up at 5:00am.

Yeah, it's that good!

Turn based, squad command with resource management and research.

And Aliens!

And Perma-death!!!

I need to go to bed!

Perma-death doesn't sound like a great thing to win fans. I will need to check it out though; apparently it is, as the cool kids would say, the "bee's knees".

Why isn't there much more hype for it?

No hype for XCom? Are you full retard? It's being talked about more than Dishonored.

Vicodin upset my stomach. I got through the whole vas and afterwards on just a few Tramadols.

Pain actually wasn't anywhere nearly as bad as I feared.
I still haven't done the post-vas check yet. Of course, I had next to zero sperm to begin with, so...

Congratz on getting it done, though.

Considering Quantum of Solaces run time compared to previous Bond movies, it almost was half a Bond movie. It felt too short for my taste to be a Bond movie

In really not hurting at all, just slightly uncomfortable. I mostly just wanted to try the vicodin, which just put me to sleep at 9pm. I'm now up at 4am.. Great

And I'm definitely going for the sperm check. My wife gets pregnant if I just look at her funny.

This seems dangerously close to a Tracey Morgan joke.

I got mine done the day before Thanksgiving a few years ago...and then had the whole family for Thanksgiving dinner at my house, including my priest brother.

My wife does not cook and you all know the Catholic Church stance on Birth Control, so I had to stand at the stove for most of the day and pretend I hurt myself playing basketball which would explain why I was gimpy. Every once in a while I would excuse myself and Mrs. Number83 would bring me an ice pack.

Man Infamous 2 just drags on and on and on. I need to stop doing the side missions, stop searching for blast shards, and just play the story missions and move on.
