everything but a medical update saturday 11-1-2008

I am not writing about my medical condition today. I may write about it tomorrow, but right now I don't want to think about it. Instead you get a hodge podge of random things on my mind. If they make sense, great; if not, oh well.

Did you hear about the lady in Detroit who refused to give Halloween candy to Obama supporters? Not only did this story make the Internet, but it's national television news too. Lady, you are an idiot. Turning trick-or-treating political is a really bad idea, but getting new coverage because of it is even worse. Her phone number and address are now public. I am sure she is getting death threats. She might end up having to move out of her house. And all because she's an idiot and made some little kids cry because she wants McCain to win. I feel bad for you; the lesson here is, don't get news coverage, because there's no privacy anymore.

I had the chance to go see Gary LeMell sing at Catalina's Jazz Club in Hollywood last night. It was a good time. The LeMell's have been very supportive of me and my family before and during my illness and I appreciate them a lot.

HDNet is showing the Ridley Scott Director's Cut of Blade Runner this month. If you have never seen the movie, you really should; it's a great sci-fi version of film noir. Particularly, see the Director's Cut if you can as this version is much better then the distributed version originally shown when the movie came out. I forgot what a crush I have on Sean Young... and Elizabeth McGovern too (who is not in Blade Runner but like Sean Young is a tall, striking brunette).

The NBA season has started and I've been watching some games on TV. I like pro ball, but I like college basketball much better. Since I have high definition in my opinion the best sport to watch in that format is hockey... some would say golf, some would say auto racing. Frankly, just about anything is good in HD.

That's about it for tonight. Not much of substance but we need cotton candy once in a while too. I'll get serious tomorrow.
