Well I watched the season premier of the new Galactica series on the Sci-Fi channel. It was really good!

I didn’t really like the origional all that much, but the Sci-Fi channel has a great record of remakes so I thought I’d give it a shot.

They have once again made a remake that in my humble opinion is better than the origional.

Take for example their remake of the movie “Dune”. The origional was …. welll weird is about the best word for it, and I cant say that I really liked it. However the Sci-Fi channel remake was awesome.

Then they have “Stargate SG-1″ … They actually didnt start this one, but they picked it up when it was going to otherwise end and kept a good thing going.

Then there is their other new show “EarthSea” … also very good. Awesome effects.

So if you had any doubts, take it from me its at least worth giving a shot.

I don’t think I’ve made clear the reason for my self-imposed banning on other sites. It is not because I’m not interested in putting all this behind us, I am, but rather it is simply a matter-of-fact, no-nonsense and simple truth … when there is a website that publishes an article about someone and that person finds it slanderous or objectionable … that person cannot be expected to validate the content of that site by actively contributing to it.

I completely understand that this does not mean the author is required to remove the content. That’s up to them. So be it. But I cannot and will not lend my implied consent to the content of a site - by contributing to it - while that site chooses to continue to post an absurdly off point and slanderous mocking article about me. It’s just crazy to think that I will.

I will not post to (nor likely even read) such a site while that objectionable material is being published. I will not post there even if doing so will convince the author to retract the article … I won’t be coerced into contributing to the site WHILE that article is in place (in any way). (Besides such action is not really up to me it’s up to the author even if they’d have it some other way.)

And, for the record, even if the article were not in place … I would not then agree to any statement which implies I was in anyway shape or form in the wrong on this one. I wasn’t, I’m not, and I’m not going to say or agree to anything that implies otherwise even in the slightest. Nobody else has to agree with that, I dont care.

I’m honestly not getting worked up over this again. Whats done is done. I’ve got my site, others have theirs. We can each choose our content. If another site chooses to bash me so be it, I’m past caring honestly. But just because I don’t care anymore does not mean I’m going to effectively condone such nonsense by contributing to that site. I’m not going to. (Frankly I can’t imagine anyone thinking I should.)

I am not self-banning myself from these sites in some attempt to have the article removed. If that is accomplished so much the better … but that’s not the point. I’m self-banning myself because any other action would be an implied validation of the content of the site … and I won’t do that while such objectionable content is in place.

So we can all politely go our own digital way. No big deal … to each his own. Other sites can happily go on with that sort of thing, and I can happily not read them. That’s the wonderful thing about the web.

McDonalds breakfast is like the greatest thing since … food. I crave it. Two words folks: Breakfast Burrito. This thing is too good to be real, but having made a few as a kid when I worked in McDs I can safely say they are in fact real.

A close 2nd to the breakfast burrito is the Sausage Egg and Cheese McMuffin.

Unfortunately there isn’t a McDs that is very close to the office … so I have to settle for the not-even-close Sausage Egg and Cheese croissant from our downstairs cafeteria …

OK, I went through some of my archives and it inspired me to go through some archives on other sites …

I’m now reminded of a particular argument that pissed me off more than I have been in some time … and going back through all the posts and rebuttals and arguments and counter points … it is clear to me now that …

I was SO ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

I honestly don’t know why I put up with people at all. I’m pretty sure I’m going to destroy all of you (yes all of you) once I become ruler of the universe. A few dozen of the hotter females will be allowed to survive so that we can repopulate the earth … but that’s a discussion for a later time.

Anyway it’s clearly not healthy for me to visit these sites anymore. I’m going to reinstate my self-imposed banning on them … I can’t think of any reason to go there that is worth seeing that shit over and over and over again.

Not a big deal, but in case any of you are wondering why you aren’t seeing me comment on some of the other sites I used to quite often … I’m boycotting these sites at least until I’m removed from the unwarranted insult tool. (I mean why on God’s green Earth would I indulge in a site that has that sort of shit on it … it just doesn’t make sense)

…anyhow…

It’s been a long week. I was ill for most of it. I’m starting to get better now thankfully. I still have a few minor symptoms to overcome but they are much less severe than they were … the end is in site.

Thank God the weekend is upon us. For those of you who get the Sci-Fi channel be sure to tune in on Friday night for the new Galactica remake series … pretty dang cool.

Gina, you got that cape yet?
