Silent Clock
My God—it’s actual text!
Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve actually blogged on my weblog, but I had to say something now that the news has been confirmed. Plus, there’s the fact Facebook said my paragraph was too many characters.
It was confirmed today (Friday) that 24 has been canceled. Fox claims it’s too expensive to continue. Having a website devoted to TV and movies, this is big news. However…
I hate to say it but I’m not feeling too broken up about 24 saying bye-bye. Love the show and Keifer is excellent, but the stories have become increasingly implausible, the dangers have become redundant, and the time-wasting subplots all too frequently spoil any momentum. I’m content to give the series a proper send-off and just re-watch the earlier seasons. Back when there was only one President Palmer.
Farewell Jack Bauer. Get yourself some rest and thanks for being such a hero.
... Silent clock ...

Meryl Streep in The Pottymouth
I seem to like these clips, where a bit of profanity slips by the network censors. I guess it illustrates how harmless it is when they actually hit the airways, how pointless it is to try and camouflage them. Also, it’s funny to hear the E! censor try to bleep the word and fail so badly.
Here’s the video, from E!‘s Golden Globes post-show coverage…

2009-09-12: U2 in Chicago
We left for Chicago yesterday morning and returned this afternoon, for another pilgrimage to see U2. It was a great show as always, but I’m still of a mind that their best tours are the stripped down ones, like the Elevation tour, rather than this current one, which, like Pop Mart, threatens to dwarf or diminish the band with its huge, distracting, yet admittedly impressive stage.
My photos are available here and here’s a collection of clips off my Cyber-shot camera.

Ford Model T Centennial
Looks like I’m using the Labor Day weekend to finally complete long unfinished video projects. Here’s footage I shot Friday, September 5 2008, of the Model T Centennial, at Ford’s World Headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan.

Mackinac Island Wedding
It only took eleven months to put this little video together. Maybe I was afraid to confess one big reason I attended Brian and Lindsey’s wedding, as you’ll plainly see, was just to get back to Mackinac Island.
