Day 08 - everyone should watch: Leverage. Okay, it has plot holes big enough to drive a truck through, and the cons can get ridiculous, but if you love a show with an awesome team dynamic, that treats its quirky characters with respect and doesn't go for the obvious stereotypes, and is just plain FUN to watch, Leverage is for you. It was just ( Read more... )

Note: I stopped watching Bones a while back, so maybe this improved...

Day 07 - least favorite episode: Bones. I'm cheating a little here, but any episode on Bones that dealt with Brennan and her dad.

Stellar twist on the clip show, ( Read more... )

And I wanted to like this show. It hit all the wrong buttons for me. While individually some of the women characters have agency and strength, the overall narrative of ( Read more... )

Oh hey, I'd almost forgotten I was going this...

Day 04 - favorite show ever: Star Trek. I've occasionally joked that my love of Trek was the only good thing I got from my father. TNG was the show of my childhood, I've seen all the movies a dozen times each. I still sob every time I see Spock’s death scene in Wrath of Khan. I still cry ( Read more... )

Day 03 - favorite new show: Castle. LOVE. OMG. My favorite show on the air right now hands-down. Nathan Fillion rocks my socks and makes this show work. Love him, his relationship with his daughter and mother (who are fabulous characters in their own right), his developing friendships with Esposito and Ryan (also fantastic secondary characters), ( Read more... )

So, I want an e-reader primarily to read PDFs, or even better, html files downloaded from the interwebs. Yes, I'm looking at an e-reader primarily to deal with the ridiculous glut of unread fic sitting in my bookmarks. Anyone have suggestions on the best option?

Because, man, I am getting to old to read comfortably on my Touch.
