Wednesday Night Telly: UK vs. US
So nobody watched this week's Chuck or Heroes?
Tuesday night’s are (currently) Lost marathon nights with my neighbour, largely because there’s generally nothing else on in either country. Wednesdays are a different story, at least as far as the US is concerned:

Ambition 2009: Equilibrium
I rarely make New Year resolutions. When I do, I never stick with them and thus start the year feeling like an abject failure. So what's this about ( Read more... ) -
