A nice trip to the forest.

I'll be away until Monday. Going camping in Rhode Island with Mary, the kids, Holly and Krys. Have a good weekend!

Robert Patrick will star in a new fX series, "Snitch." With a writer from "The Sopranos" and a director from "Six Feet Under", this show has quite the pedigree already. Hey, is R. W. Goodwin the same Bob Goodwin who was a producer on "The X-Files" for the first 5 seasons? Small world.

The 2002 TeeVee Awards. I don't watch most of the shows they recognize ("C.S.I.", "Alias"), but the awards are still fun to read. And Sarah Michelle Gellar get to split the Best Hour Actress prize. The awards include Best New Show, Best Hour Actress, Worst Hour Show, Worst Actresses, with more to come as the days go by.

Hey, I just found out that tomorrow night is the "summer season finale" of Farscape. According to Sci-Fi:

Watch the Season 4 summer finale of Farscape this SCI FI FRIDAY, August 23, at 10:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. ET/PT, after a new episode of Stargate SG-1. Brace yourself, because this summer finale is a shocker! Then mark your calendar: New episodes of Farscape will return in January of 2003!

I discover the very funny (and painfully true) Why They Hate Us weblog the week they decide to shut down. You know me, a woman with her finger on the pulse of the web.

Finally

I broke down last night and sent copies of some vacation photos to many of you. Life being the way it is, I fixed the problem with the script on my photo page this morning. You can find photos from my most recent trip to Maine here, which includes some that did not go out in an e-mail. Enjoy!

PS There will probably be more at a later date, when I finally get around to developing my film

Fox will air all 24 episodes of "24" on Sunday, September 1 (Labor Day weekend). The marathon actually begins at midnight on Saturday, August 31. Sleep? Who needs to sleep?

A well-thought-out response from Slayernews.com to the persistent characterization of Tara's death on "Buffy" as homophobic and irresponsible. When articles began springing up about this on the Internet, I was frankly surprised. Granted, I speak from a heterosexual point of view, but I consider myself a fair- and open-minded person. In my opinion, Tara's death was good drama, plain and simple. Sad, yes, but expected in the Buffyverse, where no one is allowed to stay happy for very long.

To make up for that nasty finger business, here's a remarkable AP photo of tall ships off of Portsmouth. Like a painting.

So, where the hell was I all weekend? Right here, but neglecting my site. I've been embroiled in an XPA Clue game, so watching old XF episodes has taken a lot of my time. I've also been job-hunting, a tedious process that leaves me averse to any sort of computer-use afterwards.

I scanned in a bunch of vacation pics and the page is ready to publish except for one major problem - the javascript I use for opening the images in their own window isn't working and I don't know why. I may have to just change them all to plain links to new pages if I can't figure this out soon. Either way, they'll be posted some time this week.

New Zealander Ted Matthews cut off his own gangrenous fingers. NOT for the squeamish. Like me. Good Lord, I feel sick.
