mundane
Man, I had a great TV night last night. First I watched the fourth disc of the "Joan of Arcadia" season one set, which was great in and of itself, but the commentary (Tamblyn, Steenburgen, Welch, Ritter and Mantegna -- but really, mostly Ritter) for "Recreation" put it over the top. Fantastic. That set is going on my xmas list -- actually, I might try to get it before then, I have to buy one more set from Columbia House before I'm allowed to cancel, anyway.
Then, THEN I got to watch "The Daily Show," which featured by far the best argument I've witnessed all week. The Stewart/Hitchens conversation was splendid, and Stewart said everything I was saying in my head to Hitchens. A little more eloquently, of course, since I was still a little angry about Bush's propaganda and the whole Sheehan vs. other-army-mom thing. Well, okay, more than a little angry.
By the way, here's a good general interview with Stewart from Wired. There's a bit of fun stuff about the "Crossfire" incident, too. And I got that link from the "Daily Show" community on LJ, if you're bored at work and want to clicky click.
