Wow, that's a lot, isn't it? My past viewing of Twin Peaks, Doctor Who, Quantum Leap, Babylon 5, The Twilight Zone, The Prisoner, The X-Files, and Star Trek are all attributable--in part or entirely--to my father. The rest I take responsibility for.

My mp3 player is broken...again. I need to figure out when I bought it to find out if it's still under warranty...

I saw a fascinating commercial tonight for a bracelet. The bracelet being advertised is no ordinary bracelet, it's a very special bracelet with an amazing, secret power. The commercial followed the common routine of trotting out businesspeople, seniors, and athletes to extoll the wonders of the bracelet. The fascinating part was that not one of them even hinted at what the bracelet actually does. One athlete wore it for two marathons, while another considers it invaluable in his training routine, but there was no indication if it was intended to boost speed, raise endurance, protect against injury, or simply provide them with a way to glint sun into the eyes of their opponents. The businesswoman and the senior both testified that the bracelet is amazing. They never said why. Nowhere in the commercial were any claims made, and yet they expected to sell these things for $30 with a 30-day money back guarantee. All the better not to be charged with false advertising, of course, but I have to wonder who buys these things.

On the election front, I met my local Conservative candidate tonight. She's a black woman, which impresses me (and that's really all I can say about her since I talked to her for a total of fifteen seconds). I won't be voting for her, of course, because there is absolutely no way I'm voting for the Conservative platform and in Canadian elections, it's the platform that matters, not the candidate. Nonetheless, I was glad to see her running. They may have removed progressive from the name, but apparently it hasn't completely disappeared from the party.
