Daily Dose April 11th

I admit it I am a tv junkie. I like to watch a lot of different shows, and I like the new shows as well as the old shows. In the paper yesterday there was a list of the shows that are on the "Bubble" here is a list of the shows that I like that are going to be canceled.
on NBC
Undercovers, Chase, Perfect Couples.
ABC
The Whole Truth, NO Ordinary Family
CBS
The Defenders, Mad Love, Bleep my Dad says
Fox
The Good Guys, Human Target, Traffic Light

There are also lots of shows that are on the bubble on all the networks, Harry's Law, Outsourced, Hawaii 5-0, The Mentalist, Mike and Molly, the 2 Criminal Minds, The 3 CSI's, and Lie to me.
This really upsets me as I enjoy watching these shows every week, thank goodness for my TIVO or I wouldn't have enough time to watch them all, in fact if they do cancel all my shows, what am I to do with my time?..... Read?

Cell phones

We all have them....at least most of us, and you never seem to get peoples full undivided attention anymore. I even notice myself looking at my phone when I am in conversation with some people. And don't get me started on kids or people standing in line at the store. I really do not care to hear your telephone conversation. You do not need to yell into the cell, you can be heard on the other end of the line talking in a normal voice.

Poorly timed stop lights - your daily dose

I leave for work at 445 every morning. I am often the only person on the road at that time. I do not understand why the stop lights in the city of LaCrosse don't do anything but flash at that time in the morning, you do not have to deal with cars.... except for mine. I have had to stop at a stop light 4 times out of the past 5 days on the way to work. AND THERE IS NO ONE ON THE ROAD. Don't get me started on the timing of the lights on my way home. You would think if you had a constant speed (the speed limit) that you would be able to get through the city's of Onalaska and LaCrosse. You would think.

Thoughts

I found in the paper this morning a letter to the editor about reminding people to get out and vote next week. I agree with that. I do not agree with the fact that a letter writer said.... I do not know the candidate very well but he has a good family and that is the reason I am voting for this person.

Oversleeping the alarm

I am usually pretty good at getting up for my alarm. Today however, it didnt ring and I woke up with a case of the ohhhh craps..... (insert favorite swear word here) My wife and countless friends tell me that they set the alarm for an hour before they have to get up and hit snooze many times.... I don't get it.

Here’s How to Stop Oversleeping:
Step 1: Decide to ‘Wake Up’…

There’s no easier way to say it – Oversleeping is an escape mechanism. If you want to stop oversleeping, you’d have to figure out why some part of you chooses to stay in bed. Confront it. Then decide to deal with it, instead of running away from it by oversleeping.

Packers win Super Bowl

Really enjoyed the Packer win of Super Bowl 45 Sunday. The game and the commercials didn't disappoint, there were a few too many non funny commercials but all in all, not a bad batch. My favorite spots were the Doritos lick the cheese off the finger commerial and the two Pepsi Max commercials. My son liked the opening commercial that was for the NFL with Micheal Douglas voicing it. After the game I went to pick up my oldest son and saw a bunch of police cars on West Ave, we went to check it out. Here is a picture of the "get together"

Green Hornet

I went to see the movie Green Hornet at the Marcus Theater on Ward. This is the first 3d movie I have seen with the new "real 3d" 3d that is out there, the glasses are no longer blue and red but look like Roy Orbison glasses. I will tell you that they fit a whole lot better than the old throw-a-ways that used to be around (even over glasses). The movie was kind of far fetched but was full of action and was happy to see that the "real 3d" was cool to see. I googled it after the movie and it said that this movie was not shot in 3d but added in later, still cool . Want to see which movies were shot in 3d check out http://realorfake3d.com/
