AngelsI must says I think the stone angels from Doctor Who, which just appeared in the 2 part episodes “The Time of Angels” & “Flesh and Stone” are the scariest Doctor Who villains out there. Sure the Daleks are the arch enemies of the Time Lords, but the stone angels are definitely the scariest.


A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the FutureI just finished reading (I got it from the library) Michael J Fox’s new book “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future: Twists and Turns and Lessons Learned”. Michael J Fox recently promoted it on “The Colbert Report” by taking over Stephen Colbert’s desk. It’s a good book, also a quick read, you should be able to finish the book in a day. It’s about his life and lessons he learned (obviously).

One thing he talked about were books vs movies, he said some movies are better than their books, I must say I have always liked the book better than the movie (I never read the books he mentioned though).

One other funny thing that I just learned, was he talked about Robert Zemeckis made a tongue-in-cheek comment to the press that parents groups had prevented toy manufactures from releasing hoverboards to market. I remember hearing about this as a kid. You know from that one kid that every neighborhood had that passes every rumor he hears off as fact, back in the day before the internet, and a wonderful site snopes.com. If we had snopes.com as a kid, we could have debunked 99% of what came out of his mouth right then and there.

The book is written towards recent college graduates (which I am definitely not). I still thoroughly enjoyed the book, and I highly recommend that you pick it up fro yourself.

FYI: In case you didn’t know, Michael J Fox, runs a foundation searching for a cure for Parkinson’s disease: The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research



Jacob's MotherHa-Ha. Yeah we know lady, like who are you. Here are some questions that did get answered In the Lost episode “Across the Sea” we are introduced to Jacob’s mother, and we find out Jacob and the man in black (who apparently was never given a name) are twin brothers. The lady & the man in black also turn out to be Adam & Eve skeletons from way back in season 1. “The Others” are on the island from real early on, and the Man in black lives with them for 30 years. More questions for you JJ, Damon, et al.? Does the man in black have no actual body now? Is the lady who delivers the babies the first person on the island? How do I play the man in black’s game? Is the light now extinguished? Only 3 more episodes of Lost to go.
