My '24' Review 1:00am to 2:00am 4-25-05

1. "Who did this?" (c) Audrey Who do you think did this? Jack effin' Bauer!!! Audrey is so stupid. Jack is trying to stop a nuclear war. It doesn't matter he's acting against the Soft as a Twinkie Filling President Logan.

2. I find it hard to believe that any vice president could be as soft as this guy. I mean, come on!

3. Y do these fools have a nuclear warhead in Iowa? Are they gonna eradicate the country's corn crops?

4. "You know I'm not a violent man!....Okay let's get this nuclear Warhead going!" (c) Sabir

5. Mike Novik is thinking, "This President is a Buster! We need David Palmer up in here!"

6. (c) Mike Novik "You preaching to the choir Bill."

7. The President would jeopardize an active operation because his feelings were hurt?

8. Why would Marwan start looking around once he found out the police were there? There's no reason he should have seen the camera in the vent.

9. "What? Oh I'm not a field agent. I don't do that." (c) Chloe O'Brian

9. Cloe ain’t trying to get murked!

10. Aww snap! Check that. She is about to get murked!

11. This dude used every weapon in his trenchcoat to get through that bullet proof glass!

12. “What’s going on out here!” This guy stays in his house while this dude is shooting up a car and switching weapons like the Master Chief, but he comes out once he starts ramming the car?!?

13. Chloe! She straight “Bauer’d” that guy. Chloe unloaded on that guy like he drunk the last cup of coffee in the CTU break room and didn’t start another pot!

14. Grade: A This is what ‘24’ is all about. Highly improbably plot points, people dyin (Although Jack showed some restraint and did NOT kill anybody this week), petty politics, and terrorists that are a step ahead of the good guys. Can’t wait until next week!

David "Bland": Street Magician

So I was watching a rerun of a David Blaine special when he was encased in ice for 2.5 days. It just reminded me of how much I enjoyed his first special and how the subsequent ones sucked. Previous stunts saw Blaine standing on a small platform atop a 100-foot-high pillar for 35 hours in midtown Manhattan, and in 2003, he dangled in a plastic cubicle near the River Thames in London for 44 days with only small amounts of water for nourishment. For his next "trick", David Blaine plans to perform a high wire act a la circus performers. This high wire act isn't the only thing Blaine has in common with P.T. Barnum. "A sucker is born every minute." What made him exciting was his magic tricks, not these lame parlor tricks he's been doing ever since his "Street Magic" special. I'd wish he'd get back to making fans go "Wow!" instead of "Yawn."

Good Times. Everytime you Make a Payment

There's this episode of Good Times where JJ goes to a bank for a loan. He can't get a loan because they say he hasn't had a loan before (therefore no credit). But he doesn't have any credit because he can't get a loan. It's that same catch 22 that I'm in now. Now I don't liken myself to the unsinkable Jimmie JJ Walker, but I'm still unemployed. Most of the jobs available and most of the jobs I've applied for required some kind of experience. Which I don't have cause I just graduated. Therefore, I can't get a job because I don't have any experience and I don't have any experience because I can't get a job. Over $100,000 of education and I still can't get a job. What's the world coming to? First the Fat Boys break up and now this. There's nothing to believe in anymore.

My '24' Review 11:00pm to 12:00pm 4-11-05

11:00pm to 12:00pm

1. The Vice President is a herb. He’s softer than a Twinkie filling.

2. Mike is still shady. How does he have a job in the new administration?

3. Okay, this series of acts by Marwan are too attenuated to be the least bit believable. So he wanted the Nuclear codes all along? What if the case was destroyed with Air Force One? What if the President never came to the L.A. area? What if the

4. Being partnered with Jack is like being a “redshirt” on Star Trek. With the exception of Tony. He’s like Scotty (who wore a redshirt, but didn’t die) on Star Trek.

5. Great weekend getaway in the desert huh?

6. Grade: A- This was sooo much better than last week’s. It’s ironic that the most hyped episode of ‘24’ this season was probably the most boring. This week had some nice tension.

Suicide is an option

So I'm still unemployed. Things are getting worse. There's no money coming in. It's just coming out. I guess it's like having Diarrhea but you haven't eaten anything. Anyway, If I killed myself I wouldn't have to worry about this crap anymore. I hear they're hiring in HELL.

Saved!!!

My parents are going to send me a copy of my birth certificate from home. Now I can apply for jobs again. Thanks Mom and Dad.

You are not going to believe this!

I've misplaced both my SS card and birth certificate. So I can't get a job. I went to a staffing agency and they required my SS card. Eventhough I worked for them before and they know I'm eligible to work in this country. Aargh! I can't get a new SS card w/o my birth certificate. Now I gotta order a birth certificate which is $36 plus $25 shipping and handling. Then when I get that, I can get a SS card. Ain't this some stuff? So I won't be able to even look again for a job at these agencies until later next week. How was your day?

My '24' Review 10:00pm to 11:00pm 4-04-05

1. Jack stabbed that dude twice, quick like, then put the knife back in less than 5 seconds!

2. Gotta love that Patriot Act! No warrant. We just ram the hummer into the warehouse.

3. You send 1 female FBI agent to check out someone on a terror watch list? Also, this chick answers the phone, what if it were someone Agent Drake knew? She woulda been SOL.

4. Okay, President Keeler deserves to die. “I’m sure my escorts can handle this.” What?!?

5. Wow, Cell Phone to Stealth Fighter service! I drop calls when I walk from my living room to the kitchen. I need one of those CTU phones.

6. Vice President is SHOOK! He can’t handle the pressure.

7. If Harrison Ford movies are to be believed, Air Force One has countermeasures that they can deploy to draw incoming missles away from the plane.

8. Grade: B- This episode really didn’t do much for me. Fox definitely overhyped this. The only reason it even gets a “B” from me is the siege on Fort Marwan in the beginning.
