TWIB Notes

When I don’t really have a fully formed idea for an entry and it’s just a bunch of short thoughts, I’m going to keep calling it TWIB notes. Even though that technically would mean it’s about baseball(This Week In Baseball). But it’s not. Sidenote: TWIB was one of the most enjoyable shows ever growing up. With Mel Allen doing the voice over? Brills. Okay…

Thoughts after watching Prison Break

Do we really buy that T-Bag is such a ladies’ man? I mean, that jogger women post office chick, she didn’t seem THAT lonely. Hmm… I didn’t buy it. Still, I love this show.

I am going to miss Bill Fichtner. Great character. He’s sublime at playing creepy. I remember him from back in the day on As The World Turns! (He played a hearththrob.) As I remember Meg Ryan and Kevin Bacon and others. Ex-soap stars, you know who you are!

Here’s something odd I just noticed after going to imdb to figure out how to spell Bill Fichtner’s name. Both Wentworth Miller(Michael Scoffield) and Dominic Purcell(Lincoln Burrows) were born in England. Also, the actor who plays Sucre is going to be in the Transformers movie. Dominic is going to be in a slew of movies in 2007 whereas Wentworth is taking his Prison Breaking pretty seriously. Ah, what a crew, those Prison Breakers. Tanouye, can you help me meet who I like to call Nurse Hottie?

Sarah Wayne Callies. Mmmmm. I could make some sort of doctor related sexual role play style pun here like I have a boo-boo and I’d like you to kiss it. But I won’t. I shall resist. But I will think it instead.

Astroland at Coney Island is closing.
Sadness. Where will I now go to have a trashy amusement park like experience? Luckily, the Cyclone will continue to operate. Wooden rollercoasters are superior in every way.(Can we get a shout-out in here for the Grizzly at King’s Dominion in Virginia? HOLLER!) There’s something charming and completely scary about them. You can always spot a few boards that are moving about as the ride goes around and makes you think that the whole thing is going to fall down at any second. So naturally, I get in line a second time. Anyway, supposedly it’s going to be all spruced up and stuff. Does this mean no more Zoltar-esque machine as well?

Say Goodbye To Irving, TexasThe Cowboys just drop kicked their ummm… kicker. After missing five field goals. Yeesh. But I think it’s a good move. You don’t want to get mixed up with bad mojo when you are preparing for a playoff run.

I am wondering if New York is an angel or a star kinda town. The Shelkey’s, for the record, are a star kinda family. I never really understand those people that put angels up there. Hello, Star of Bethlehem people!
