The story so far…

Okay, just to try and keep stuff straight (this is as much for me as anyone):

  • Saw “I, Robot” with less child-noise. Still lots of questions. Not like the book, of course, but entertaining and loved the inference that Microsoft was evil.
  • Saw about 40 seconds of “Who’s Your Daddy?” Still can’t stand the sexual connotations (and the chick is in a black cocktail dress, talking to the guys, I’m guessing fake boobs but can’t really tell, if so Fox probably paid for them). Read several reviews of the show, including a great piece at Salon, and still irked that they are turning this into a game show. Totally left out her family (the people that adopted her and raised her), ‘daddy’ proclaims “we’re a family again” at the end without explaining why the fuck he gave her up and not the other three kids (if I were the one given up, I’d wanna know). Also? In the forty seconds I saw, which is when she went through all 8 and narrowed it to 4, I picked the guy. C’mon, it wasn’t that hard, and it was likely rigged so that she could “win.” Reality, my ass.
  • Taking my son to the doctor again today since he was coughing so much, he’s home from school today too. No fever but with ashtma you gotta be careful.
  • My wife and older son are also running fevers. So far the baby and I are OK. We’ll see how long that lasts.
  • I still need to tell lots of stories from out winter vacation, but since January is usually slow and all there’ll be time. Must find camera to download incriminating photos.
