Bracketology

Duke is still holding on to our number one seed in Bracketology. The loss to Georgetown was tough, but it may be a blessing in disguise.

24

I thought last night's episodes were very intense. The tension of executing the hostages reminded me of the time when jack was in prison and playing russian roulette for the amount of tension. I did not believe they were going to kill derrick (i think that is Jack's "son"), but i dont think he looks like a 15 year old. Chloe continues to rule CTU and it's good to see that she is still the "smartest woman alive".

Mrs. Logan is quite interesting. It seems that President Logan doesn't respect her and he treats her terribly. I hope that mole with the President doesnt survive much longer. He's already getting on my nerves and he needs to be stopped.

I'm surprised that there is a supply of nerve gas within about 10 minutes of that airport. I do have a question, the hostage that was given the "key" to the nerve gas, wasnt he the one they grabbed for a moment to be executed by one of the terrorist. I guess everyone of the terrorist's knew what was going on, as usual.

I love the back to back episodes but now we have to wait a whole week between episodes for the remainder of the season. I know in March, when Prison Break returns, Monday night will be the new "Must See TV" night the way NBC was on Thursday in the 90's.

DUKE defeats unc 3,688-3,444

I hope this is a good sign for the Silence of the Rams in 21 Days!!! It's a shame they did not reach their goal by $20,000, but maybe K or Roy will kick in a few $$$'s.

New Orleans Mayor Says God Mad at U.S.

I believe that the mayor makes some interesting points. The Old Testament does speak of God judging nations for their actions with natural diasater, but it also tells us in the New Testament that these things would be signs of His Second Coming. I guess the question I have is are the diasters in the U.S. and around the world the punishment of God as in the OT or are Signs of the 2nd coming. I think that I feel that these events are more likely Signs instead of Old Testament judgements. I guess that should challenge us to live our lives in expectation of His coming.

What do you think?

Bracketology for Jan 16

I know that I love this stuff. He has switched Duke from Atlanta to Washington :( I was hoping for Atlanta. The Holes have dropped from a 4 seed to a 5. :)

I'm Back and 24's Back Too

I know that it has been a long time since i've last blogged. It was way back on Oct. 31. The majority of you know that since that time, Kristy has been dealing with very severe headaches. She spent 29 days in November in the hospital. She spent 3 days in December in the hospital also. Kristy is still having some very bad headaches, but things are slowly getting back to normal.

24 is BACK! I'm very angry that they killed off President Palmer and Michelle. That was just WRONG! I had read online that it was going to happen, but I thought maybe they would not do it. I was wrong on that one :( It was good and tonight's episode looks really intense. I was also glad that Kim was nowhere to be seen :) I cant stand President Logan. He is completely opposite from President Palmer. Logan is just a wimp. I know they did not mention it, but did the President on Air Force One that was shot down 18 months earlier die??? Logan was the Vice President and only took over while the other one was injured. There's no way that we would elect that wimp, so I assume that the president did die in the Air Force One crash last season.
