Weekend Update

 

Audio/Video/Telly

 Doctor Who - Finally! Something was living in the Wi-Fi and that something turned out to be...The Great Intelligence! Same entity from the Christmas episode. And he finally found Clara, or should I say she found him by trying to call tech support (which rang the Tardis). She said the "woman in the shop told her it was the best help line in the universe". Wonder who that was? I'm sure we'll find out. Something I didn't notice first time around: the book the boy had was Summer Falls by...Amelia Williams! Get it? Clara said she cried her eyes out in Chapter 11 and I just made another connection. What was it Dorium Maldovar said?  "It's all still waiting for you: the fields of Trenzalore, the fall of the Eleventh, and the question!" Suddenly there was more to this episode than I thought!

I bet every geek out there will change his password to "rycbar123". I considered it. There were some really funny one liners in there too. "I can't tell the future, I just work there." and "Do you just crook your finger and people jump inside your snog box?" Clara is sassy, and that's so sexy. This is going to be a fun ride!

 The Walking Dead - So something finally happened. Merle took the samurai chick to the governor, but let her go before they got there. He stirred up some trouble before being killed, and you know what happens when you die. Daryl actually was the one to find him and had to put him down. Season finale is tonight.

How I Met Your Mother - 45 days! Ted finally meets her in 45 days! Should have been three seasons ago. I hope "20 years from now Von" is actually happy, and alive.

New Girl - Not a fun episode, seeing that it was about a funeral for Nick's dad. But we get to meet his family and Jess does an awesome Elvis. In the ghetto...

Downton Abbey - I started watching this because of everyone raving about it. It's okay I guess. Just finished Season 1 where he announced England and Germany were at war. Now I'm a few episodes into Season 2 where the war is full on.

Movies - I guess I've been into all these bleak, post apocalyptic movies lately. I watched The Road, which was, well bleak. And gray. And it was cold and rained a lot. Other than running from cannibals and looking for food, that's about all that happened. Also you can check my review of Moon here.

Music - Not much going on here. I deleted some questionable stuff in an attempt to get my man card back. I lost it Friday because of this. Maybe I should add some death metal or grunge to even things out? Pass. That stuff sucks.

Sports

Braves - Finished spring training with a record of 20-15. Evan Gattis has made the team. He has a great story that you need to check out here. Opening Day is finally here Monday against the Phillies.

Bama basketball - The Tide loses a heartbreaker to Maryland 58-57 in the 3rd round of the NIT. They finish the year at 23-13. Oh well, football season starts in 152 days. Sigh...
