Sunday Random Ten: Meet me in Meat Space Edition

"Super fabulous the patterns have been uplifted" - Blackalicious, The Fabulous Ones

Hi, this is negro please and a blog used to live here.

The author isn't here right now. He'd much rather be in "meat space" visiting with people in the real world than hanging out here with the computer during his free time.

If you see him out and about, don't be scared. Say hello.

Even though he hasn't had a chance to write his The Wire Recap for last week's episode, he still plans to continue through the rest of the season, time willing. Last Sunday he made the very smart decision of going to see The Departed during what is normally recap writing time and he just hasn't gotten back those lost hours. The Departed was so worth it, though. Maybe, one day, he'll write about that as well.

The magic 8 ball says that's doubtful.

But, hey, why don't you check out 13 Nights of Halloween and The Initiation of Sarah and Buena Vista Games and twdc.com.

That's only the tip of the iceberg.

We've been busy.

Out of 176 songs (that aren't NPR podcasts) that I've listened to at home over the last 7 days, we've got ourselves a

Other things: I've given up on Dexter. I'm liking Heroes more and more. The Nine was less interesting with it's second episode. Good, but not great TV. 30 Rock, on the other hand, was 22 minutes of hilarious heaven. "I'm from the federal government and I've come to inspect the chicken nuggets" will always be funny. Between Urge, eMusic and iTunes, I'm listening to way more new music on a weekly basis than I should be. Somehow, though, Justin Timberlake and Robin Thicke keep bubbling up to to the top of the pack.

White boys are doing it for themselves.

I'm digging Dexter, never thought about giving The Nine a chance and am loving Heroes. In fact I think Dexter and Heroes are the only two new shows still on my radar.

i think it's too early to give up on dexter. i'm gonna pick up the book on which the show is based.

i keep forgetting to add heroes to my dvr schedule.

The BVG site is slick. Very nice. I'm not watching the new shows. I probably would if I had Tivo.

[JaG]

I just can't get into that new Justin album but Robin Thicke works for me right now too!

i had to eat crow on the new Brand New Heavies. I described it as garbage when i first heard it.

Yep, i have my idiotic moments...
