I did see “State of Play” yesterday. I admit I was less thrilled by it than my companions, but it was still a tight little political thriller. I guess maybe I’m just bored out of my skull by supposedly “intellectual” dramas that always end up with some fictional corporation tugging the strings. You could of course do far worse than this one, but before I die I would like to see a political thriller that wasn’t written for people who think that Darth Vader invented commerce.

At this point I would just settle for a little exercise. The gym flooded, and they’ve had it shut down for a month now. As far as I can tell they’ve yet to hire a contractor. I see all kinds of different men with clip boards, shirts tucked into their jeans, going in and out with no sign of actual work being done. I guess I could go out for a nice long walk, but the scenery isn’t exactly a compelling reason to dodge around all the traffic.
What else is there to say? General boredom, and a need for work. That’s all it boils down to. I guess this will have be a short one. I would like to thank my friend Paul for recommending the show “Black Books” to me. I just finished watching the third series last night, and now there is no more. That’s the one thing I hate about British shows. Three full series (that’s their equivalent of a season you might say), and I get fewer episodes than one season of an American TV show. On to The Inbetweeners which my friend Laura recommended.
Say do you know what Rolfing is? You do? Well did you know you can Rolf a dog?
