Optimism and buoyancy

This influence assures a day of good feelings, peace and harmony with others. But you should try to use its energy to accomplish something good and useful for yourself. The temptation is to enjoy the good feelings and let the day slip by without paying any special attention. The enthusiasm, optimism and buoyancy associated with this influence will enable you to project energies into the environment that will help your affairs work out as you want. This may appear to be luck, but it is not really. Consciously or unconsciously, in your daily routine you operate with great understanding of the overall patterns, and you act with more foresight and consideration than usual. If you do benefit from “dumb luck,” it is a consequence of something you have done in the recent past.

Despite what folks may think, we don’t watch “A LOT” of current television in our household.

Actually, I think I can count the shows we watch on one hand. Most of it is science fiction. There’s Heroes, Doctor Who, and Stargate SG-1. All of which were on hiatus until this weekend.

Stargate left us hanging with a pretty big cliffhanger. For some reason however, when Friday’s new episode ran… the Tivo opted to ‘blow it off.’

I really hate having to verify that the system is going to perform the way it’s supposed to. You find a set of rules and you have to learn to trust them. If not that leads to what others call paranoia. Primarily, because you learn the holes in the system and become sensitive to the surprises.

So… now.. unless I check the Tivo… it looks like we may not get our planned entertainment.

So.. I guess I must put a call out to anyone who might have recorded Stargate SG1, “The Quest, Part 2” It doesn’t look like SF is rerunning it anytime soon.

The problem being that I need the episode with closed-captioning in tact. Oh, sure… SF-channel says, “Just go to iTunes and buy it.” But let me take a moment to rant.

That’s right. Me… Mac-man, the Apple fan. I am not buying a video iPod. I am not buying episodes of tv. I am not buying movies. And I really think no one else should either.

Quite simply.. none of the video is captioned. So.. gosh I can have the privilege of watching video and then reciting it to anyone who need captions.

So.. Looking for Stargate… with captions. psigh 🙂

Vonnegut passed Wednesday from complications to a brain injury last week.

I have read several of his books and considered him one of my favourite authors.

He was a little bit crazy, but he nonetheless always sparked philosophical thought.

Unto them from whose eyes the veil of life hath fallen may there be granted the accomplishment of their true Wills; whether they will absorption in the Infinite, or to be united with their chosen and preferred, or to be in contemplation, or to be at peace, or to achieve the labour and heroism of incarnation on this planet or another, or in any Star, or aught else, unto them may there be granted the accomplishment of their wills; yea, the accomplishment of their wills.

May your divine quest by Boku-maru never be threatened by the Hyook even in the face of so-called freedom.

Heroes Theories

I have read comic books for too damned long for my own good.

Somewhere in history around the beginning of season 6 of Buffy (in a post I can not find) I wrote about the upcoming season 6:

It’s gotta be Willow this year. She’s just too damned strong. But something is going to drive her over the edge. Probably one of the 3 geeks will injure/kill tara. We know how well Willow deals when she loses someone… It’s usually magick and it’s bad. You’ll get some killer Buffy vs. Big Bad Willow stuff going on. Now if I were writing it. I’d have Xander be the one who saves the day. Not buffy. He’s known Willow the longest. He can get right into the core of who she is no matter what they do to “big-bad-ify” her.

This little pronouncement got me invited at my first DragonCon to sit on a few Buffy panels concerning Story Arc.

Currently, my favourite show hands down is Doctor Who. This post. Has nothing to do with Doctor Who.

My second favourite show, on the other hand is “Heroes”

Heroes has some amazing writing that just happens to be all interwoven sooper sekrit arc.

Today after being given a small hint… My mind blew up and I came up with some very strong theories.

If you are not watching Heroes… (Well you should)… If you are watching it and don’t like spoilers/theories… you really don’t want to click ahead… But in general… I have an idea.

SPOLIERS? Well, if you’d been wondering…
