Someone pretending to be Danny Glover asked the host what he thought of the new Doctor. Turns out both pseudo Danny Glover and the host are Tennant fans.

I am now in the position of "put up or shut up." After a great deal of internal grousing and a significantly smaller portion of useful activities like dedicated job searching, I've been offered a job that is an upgrade from part time to full time, with all the concomitant benefits one may expect, a decidedly rough schedule -- 4 AM to 1 PM, Tuesday ( Read more... )
