Dr. G is now on the
Discovery Science Channel! So there's a chance
Oprah's destruction of Discovery Health next year won't mean the end of my favorite Medical Examiner (sorry,
Dr. Quincy). There's some solace in that.
Meanwhile, in other important television doings,
Five-0's
Steve McGarrett was on the witness stand on
WFMZ 69 this afternoon. Steve was testifying against some super villain loan shark and talking turkey about the exorbitant interest rates in the leg-breaking business, or "the juice, as it's called in the underworld parlance." Classic McGarrett-speak. Shuffling between that and a
Twilight Zone marathon on the
SciFi Channel brings to an end my last week on the dole, topped off with a rousing snow storm to boot.
And down the snow tumbles. I can hear all the fuckers up and down my block cackling with glee at the chance to rock and roll tomorrow with their machines of destruction.
You know, I can't believe, we're on the eve of destruction. They're probably already hunkered down in their garages, greasing up their
Sno-Blower 10000s for the big day tomorrow, anxious to gun the engines and shoot that snow a mile high in the sky before crashing it back down to earth all over my freshly hand-shoveled walk, erasing the fruits of my manual labor.
The idiot across the street from me was revving up his monstrous contraption this afternoon before a flake had even hit the ground. It was like qualifying day at the Indy 500. Better find my headphones so I can drown out the screams of 20 Blowers doing their synchronized dance tomorrow while I'm breaking my back with the ol' faithful $5 plastic shovel. I think a little
Never Mind the Bollocks on the iPod will serve as a gentle alternative soundtrack to my back breaking efforts. My body is already aching just thinking about it. Of course I
covered this neighbor problem in a December post, where I swore I'd break into my each of their garages at the dawn of the next big snowfall and fill the gas tanks of their blowers with nitroglycerin. Better set my alarm early tomorrow. :-)
But who am I kidding? I'm a dyslexic misanthrope: whenever I get especially angry at someone or something, I tend to take it out on myself, no matter how much I may want to lay into the true target of my fury. It's perhaps just something ingrained into my DNA? Nah. Odds are, it was tattooed onto my psyche by off-brand byzantine parenting since recalled.
I'm going to be signing off from this blog for the most part while I get back down to the business of business. That means more postings on my
technology blog at the expense of this one. I'll still be checking in from time to time but probably not at the near daily clip I'd been posting to date, tossing globs of drivel-laden keystrokes at the web and watching precious little of it stick. Which is not to say that the quality will improve just because I have a go at it less. But I'll feel more guilty if it isn't. So I'll try.
