Boo Update!


It has been awhile since I posted some photos of Boo. Here are a few. Life remains busy...too busy some days but all the same good. This coming Sunday we are getting a new Stake President. This is unscheduled so I spent a week trying to find a building big enough...then on Fri night it was decided to just do it in our buildings and video conference it. (Good thing I spent the previous week setting up the Internet in all buildings). So this week I have spent time getting the equipment, figuring out how it works and running cable and deciding how to set it all up. Tonight is a test run of the equipment, hope my connections are all good. Anyway, here's Boo

Good TV is leaving?

A few weeks ago one of TV's best written shows ended. Battle Star Galactica came to an end after 5 years. It took me awhile before I got into this show but I have to say once I gave it a chance I was hooked. (I had seen the orginal in 78 when it was on)

Some have said that TV is dying and in some ways they are right. I hate the reality shows that come on. I have asked myself why do I watch TV? To be educated yes but mainly to escape an be entertained. With that in mind I still have several TV shows that I enjoy.

Big Bang Theory is a great escape and laugh since I relate well with the nerds. (No I am not that smart but I am nerdy)
How I met you mother is great because of Barney. Without him it would just be a Friends ripoff
The Mentalist makes me think and smile
Lie to me is good because of the stars.
Legend of the seeker is pure escape since nothing else like it is on. (I get tired of my copies of Hercules and Xena)
24 is good but not a must see the same is for Heroes. I have lost the intense interest I had.

That's about it...I seem to spend more time watching DVDs of old shows but still like a few of the new ones.

I can not wait until BBC America brings back Robin Hood and NBC finaly shows the BBCs Merlin this summer. (I have seen all of the Merlin that was already shown in England thanks to the magic of You Tube)
