Donna Martin Graduates 

So West Wing wasn't on last night and I decided to give The OC a chance. And I loved it. I haven't seen that great a use of slow motion/confetti since Romeo and Juliet. There are so many lessons to be learned from rich teenagers in Southern California. 10 years of 90210 taught me that, if nothing else. I can't wait to see what the defining moment of The OC is. I like to think that the writing is a little brighter than that of 9-0, but those writers did come up with such gems as:
Dad Walsh: Brandon, would you like to join me in a bowl of cereal?
Brandon: Thanks Dad, but I don't think there's room.

The other thing that reminded me of the hours I spent watching 90210 my senior year of college (watching 90210 means studying, mom. It's slang.) were the commercials for Hot Bod. What is that stuff? There were two spots for it almost every break and as far as I can tell it's cologne (cheap and fake) in a spray bottle. Because cologne is too difficult to put on? I've never seen the stuff in real life, but, according to the ads, it's used mostly at very dark rock and roll shows and during pick-up basketball games on the streets, yo. Neither of which I frequent.

One more thing -- there is now a comments section after each post, which was way easier to install than I thought it would be. Html is awesome -- even better than Excel. I have found my new geeky pursuit, and I love it.

And I'm seeing The Return of the King tonight. Awesome.
