AUTHOR.CALHO: If I didn't write it, I would be hitch hiking cross country to Maine and then Alaska in that order. While taking frequent breaks to spread leaflets. And sit in diners. And write on things because I wasn't at a computer. I may still do that in a few years. Writing this also helps me forget about and better understand the limitations of being human, and keeps me busy enough to allow me no free time to burn the world down.

THEMATIC.ABOUT : Collapse often. The things that hold people together and hold them apart and scatter brains. The things that make thoughts go boom. The things that ooh and aah and [expletive deleted]. Sometimes poking around the margins where responsibility ends and the only one to look to is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and say "but, I already pressed 9 for more options and the menus are exactly the same. Can you just replace it?" The answer will be: "please hold." Sometimes hanging out in dark corners. Sometimes following the train tracks. Looking for ways out and ways in and all the while sharing the things seen and heard and done and drawn and written and scorched and healed and teased and caged and dreamed along the way.

30 rock. season 1 season2 season 3. theyre all there. mweh. theyre all there. its a hit and miss show with lots of misses and a couple hits per show.

its not weird or interesting. i guess its typical. its a typical show. about as funny as the simpsons are now... or family guy is now. i dunno. you watch it for the two to four hits. its like playing a mediocre video game with an awesome momentary animation. sure, it does make good points with good story arcs most of the time, but so do a lot of shows. the show is a lot like i would imagine a mixture of the simpsons and seinfeld would be. its like hmmm 30 rock is like if the characters from seinfeld only redeemed themselves once a season instead of at the close of every episode and they lived in a world as bent as springfield except instead of towny jokes there were all city and racial jokes.

it passes the time. much like that mediocre video game that you might plug away at for an hour or two so you can see the two minutes of cgi video or finally push the right sequence of buttons to make the main character to something awesome. sure you wasted 58 minutes or got frustrated mashing buttons till you finally got it right... but when you did get it right it was pretty damn cool.

and thats why i watch 30 rock. not that you were wondering. i will tell you this though. tina fey is the LEAST interesting part of the show. by far. maybe the show needs her for that reason. maybe she needs the show to keep her face on tv. i dont fucking know. shes not funny. shes not even the lisa simpson or marge simpson or elaine. shes just sandy, soggy, perpetually insecure, slightly awful to look at (she always looks like shes about to either vomit or crap her pants or sneeze and her tits are usually trying to fall out) and generally grating. i guess she just reminds me of high school girls. oh well, who the fuck cares. im still going to watch. ill just blur my vision when shes on screen and muffle my ears when she talks.

///kid koala -"bonus materials on the set of fender bender" you know those songs that make you wanna just ride a fixed gear bike in noonday sunlight down a packed dirt main street market square on your way to your favorite pond to skip rocks and watch enormous gold fish swim? well you know one now.
