Alien TV Sightings

It's true. The roommate broke down after Christmas and bought a pair of rabbit ears so we can watch a few channels. I have been both mesmerized and completely perplexed by TV in the last month.

#1 Raj Mathai, NBC 11 News
Isn't he a beautiful man? Ethinic AND can talk about sports. Wow. Speaking of good-looking Sportscasters... (see #2)

#2 Extra
This show is sad. I can't believe people watch this. What's worse is that it's followed by Access Hollywood, which is the SAME show. Why Jon Kelley, did you go from being a one of America's best sportscasters to being on Extra? Oh, lured by the money, were you? You were so much cuter talking about the Chicago Bears than you are talking about Lindsay Lohan. I'm sorry you had to come to this.

#3 The President's Update on Iraq
Did charisma leave the building? What is he squinting at? Oh yeah, he's reading.

#4 Doggy steps
They should include a disclaimer that reads:

WARNING SINGLE PERSON! Did you know that your bed is one of the dirtiest places in your house? Do you know how many perfectly wonderful mates have allergies? I don't care how cute and cuddly your dog is! He's a dog -- he can sleep on the floor. You can even buy him his own custom bed! If you do like sleeping with your pet, your chances of having another human being sleep in your bed GREATLY decrease. Don't trade in human companionship for Fluffy or Fido.

Doggy steps are perfect couples who mutually love their canine, older people who live alone with their canine, or people who want to be single forever.

#5 Deal or no Deal
Is that IT? They just open cases? Are there any other games, or is that it? Geez, at least the original show had different games and people in costumes. I'm greatly disappointed.

#6 Music concerts on PBS
I'm suddenly a fan of James Blunt. He wrote other songs besides "You're Beautiful" and they are GOOD! Yay! (He also has nice lips!) I'm also very appreciative of the Stix concert with the Cincinatti's Contemporary Youth Orchestra. Old guys with mullets, a spinning keyboard, and kids rocking out on violins?! Heck yeah!

#7 Housewives of the OC
I watched about 15 minutes and was bored out of my mind. I refuse to get upset; really it only makes me feel smarter. (he he more smart)

Remember when we used to watch Raj/Rog' Mathai back on 9th Street. At one point we wondered if his name had changed...Were we crazy, or did that really happen?

That tangent got me thinking about our Lynton(-Bear) Johnson and how we used to talk about his cutey cute face and how they always gave him the crap stories..."Hi, I'm Lynton Johnson, coming to you live from Downtown San Jose at 11pm where there has just been a brawl and now it is raining on me..."

He must have a family now or something because he's the media spokesperson for BART.

I was WONDERING what happened to Linton Bear! At least he is doing something important, like working in transportation, instead of working on Access Hollywood.

Doggie steps are bizarre and hilarious. Who even thought of those???
