11/26   I missed the first 10 minutes of buffy, what happened to giles?
        \_ They're writing the guy into his own show as soon as Joss has
           time (ie, when Firefly gets the axe).  It seems super unlikely
           that anything serious happened to him.
           \_ I know that.  But did they actually show anything following up
              the cliffhanger at the end of the previous episode?
              \_ nope.  just repeated the cliff hanger part.
           \_ Still, I wouldn't quite put it past them to kill Giles off
              and have all of ASH's future appearances this season be the
              Big Bad mimicking him.  That's part of the fun of watching
              the show.  (They could still do a series about him; just set
              it in the past.)
              \_ Well, seeing as he'd be playing the same character in the
                 new show, this seems pretty unlikely.
        \_ I haven't been watching this season at all, but when Buffy died
           two seasons ago how come this did not activate a new Slayer like
           it did when Buffy died at the end of season 2 and Kendra was
           activated?
           \_ Probably because Joss hasn't had any strong character driven
              ideas for a third slayer.  When he or one of his writers does,
              we'll see the third...
           \_ I assume it's because Faith is the last in line, and she's
              alive and well.  Buffy can't just keep dying and activating
              new slayers each time.
           \_ because it is a tv show? -aspo
              \_ IT IS NOT A TV SHOW!  IT IS REAL LIFE!  AUGH!

8/12    Bored, watching TV, and came across this synopsis nugget
        for a Three's Company episode:
        "[Janet's boss] Tina blackmails Jack into being at her
         beck and call; otherwise she'll fire Janet."
        The 70s were a weird time.

6/9     Synchronized Macarana-esque dance after first 2010 World Cup goal.

        Oh no, the same disease that has plagued football here at home is now
        spreading to soccer abroad.
        \- You may be too young to remember ROGER MILLA and the DANCE OF THE
           CORNER. Did you see BISHOP D.TUTU dancing? That was pretty funny.

4/8     In addition to below, can someone recommend a movie or soap
        opera that describes the life of Kangxi Emperor? Netflix = useless.
        Mandarin is fine as long as there's subtitle. Thanks.
        \_ Not exactly a soap opera, but Kangxi Di Guo is a very good TV series
           featuring Chen Dao-Ming as Kangxi.  Whether or not it's accurate to
           history is another matter, though.
