- I parked next to a black Nissan Altima yesterday. Other than a yellow looking Batman logo spray painted on the door, it looked like a regular car.
- A few spoiler free ‘X-Files’ –
- As much as I’m enjoying this six-episode series, it’s odd not watching the show on a Sunday night.
- If you liked the episode “Bad Blood”, you’ll like this episode. It doesn’t hit it out of the park like “Bad Blood” but it’s still a fun watch.
- I absolutely loved Mulder’s ringtone.

- I’ve got the DYI itch and have been watching home improvement shows. Last night I noticed ‘Kitchen Crashers’ on the DYI Network has a host named Alison Victoria. I’m not used to seeing sexy contractor with long hair and fit body wearing a tank-top and boots that were made more for fashion than function. Here’s a TV Guide picture of what I’m talking about. For other pics of her doing crossfit and other activities, you’re on your own.
- It was nice to see the recently retired Bob Schieffer back on the ‘CBS Evening News’ last night. It looks like this election season he’ll only be in semi-retirement offering some commentary and analysis on a limited basis.
- I’m thankful I’m not a cable television subscriber in Iowa. The amount of political commercials that air must be torture.

Airplane! is such a classic. It's been on one of the movie channels lately, and every single time I see it, I have to stop and watch. I wonder if Leslie Nielsen, so well known for his straight-man roles, ever dreamed what the second half of his career would be?
Interesting about the networks losing money on that NFL package. I wonder if it's the start of a shift related to football in general, or if it's just the networks being stupid and overpaying this cycle?
DIY shows? Nicole Curtis on Rehab Addict on HGTV. That's all.
Speaking of women in DIY shows, perhaps Joanna Gaines of Fixer Upper can be a candidate for the HAHOF.
Love Bob Schieffer. Last of the old school hard news guys. Realistically this may be his last Presidential election. So sad it has to be with this lousy group of candidates.
BTW, Comedy Central is running Groundhog Day on a loop today.
Being an 80s born and 90s kid I never knew Leslie Nielsen to be anything other than hilarious. My fave, just under Airplaine! is his Fugitive spoof Wrongfully Accused. There are some great lines, and the whole bus/train scene in the woods is my favorite.
