Name a country that you admire

I was watching this clip of Family Feud earlier today and thank goodness YouTube has this video, so I can share this gem with all 1 of you.

The question?
Name a country (other than the US) that you admire.

Answers so far:
1. England
2. Canada
3. Italy
4. Australia
5. France
6. ____________

Sadly, the not-so-wily Wiley family was faced with the difficult task of figuring out the 6th country.

I don’t know how Al Borland Richard Karn keeps a straight face. Apparently he’s a damn good host of Family Feud.

The Jacktracker

frank flynnAbout a month old, but NEW TO ME. For 24 fans, here’s the Jacktracker.

Follow Jack Bauer as he makes his way around Los Angeles (and the world) on Day 5 of 24, the hit Fox TV show.

Check out the Wayne Palmer’s condo and the Sunrise Hills Mall (Northridge Mall) amongst other Day 5 locales.

I pity the fool who doesn’t use iTunes Movie Store!

ateamOh how I love thee. I’ve been doing a lot of purchasing from the iTMS. Mainly TV shows, shorts, and anything else that catches my eye. My biggest purchase? The A-Team Season 1. Now I’m not a big fan of going out and actually buying DVDs of old TV shows. I just can’t justify spending 39.99-59.99 on a TV series I have already seen. Nevertheless, I was a little caught off guard when I found myself clicking the “Buy Season” button for the A-Team.
The price? $27.86.
A bit cheaper then buying the DVDs. Granted, I don’t get the “Extra Features” or “Deleted Scenes”, but what I do get, is the ability to watch them on my iPod whereever I go. It would have taken hours to get the DVDs to my iPod. Time I just don’t feel like spending. Now if only they would strike a deal with Fox to get Family Guy and the Simpsons on there, I would be set.

Mac is Back - minus mullet

woohoo!Wow. I don’t think I need to see any more Super Bowl commercials besides this one. Tomorrow, sometime during the 4th quarter, MasterCard is unveiling their latest masterpiece in the “Priceless…” campaign… starring MacGyver! Granted, he’s a little bit older, but he’s got the trademark Mac clothes and the background music is great for anyone that watched the show. I’ve watched this commercial about 15 times in a row. You can check out the ad (along with other ads airing tomorrow) at superbowl-ads.com.
Here’s MacGyver’s tools of choice for this commercial.

“Little tree” air freshener: $1.29
Tube sock: $4
Paper clip, ballpoint pen, rubber band, tweezers, nasal spray, turkey baster: $14
The little things that get you through the day: Priceless
I can’t… stop… watching…

Priceliss (MasterCard website) [priceless.com] has even more video goodness with Richard Dean Anderson

Stephanie Tanner… meth addict?

Stephanie Tanner... All grown upLife after Full House for Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie Judith Tanner [How rude!]) meant high school, college, getting married at age 20, and becoming addicted to methamphetamines.

The great part about this story is that Uncle Jesse, Danny Tanner, and Michelle staged an intervention. It’s good to know that the castmates still care about one another.

The gang's all here!
So much love… it hurts.

The upside to this story?
She’s drug-free, divorcing her husband (OK, that’s more of an upside for me), and she’s going to try to start acting again.
Full House used to be my favorite show. I still catch reruns on ABC Family. Hopefully we’ll see Jodie Sweetin on-screen soon!
