CSI mentions Ohio!
Vivian, the African-American detective in the original CSI, just mentioned Ohio. She said, roughly:

"Why were the exit polls in Ohio 8 points off?"

(If you're on the West Coast and don't want any plot spoiler, stop reading here!)

They were discussing an online poll about a celebrity's fate. The poll, it turns out, is rigged. By hundreds of thousands of votes. One person at one location is rigging it.

But, my favorite line was, "Why were the exit polls in Ohio 8 points off," delivered in a droll tone of voice.

This is reputed to be the most popular TV show, gang! Nice!

It was Without a Trace!

Now you know that I watch them both, and like them both.

Thanks for the correction.

3. Last Sunday Law and Order Criminal Intent took a swipe at the Patriot Act
It dealt with people being held in custody with no access to lawyers. Chris Noth was on in his original role of Det. Mike Logan. At one point the Patriot Act is mentioned and he says "The Patriot Act? I read the original version, it was called 1984."

They repeated the episode on Tuesday night.

10. The CSI story last night was VERY disturbing!
It was about a VERY rich and powerful man with a whole lot of dirt on EVERYONE who likes to act like a baby in his spare time! He has a secret room with adult sized cribs, bassinets, diapers, and a literal nursemaid. for those of you who don't realize what that term means that is a lactating woman.

That CSI was VERY disturbing, but it seems to me there are an awful lot of disturbing things like this on TV these days.

As I was watching CSI last night I was thinking to myself MM said Democrats need to look to Hollywood for the answers, is this one of the answers Hollywood is trying to show us?

Law and order, CSI, Without a Trace, Medium...are all doing stories along these deranged lines. It's creepy!

17. SIMPLICITY ITSELF
The thing is they "whoever" you choose to describe "they" is.

Have made things way to complex.

I will NOW SIMPLIFY IT FOR YOU.

Electronics, Electricity, DIgitized Data, and Insecure Networks have absolutely NO FSCKING PLACE in society.

ANd they have no place in the United States Of America.

ANYONE THAT PROMOTES IT IS THE ENEMY.

DO YOU GET IT YET?!

EAT THAT BAY-BEE!!
