Good drama comes from extreme events and what could be more extreme than something that breaks or shatters that thin veneer that we call "civilization"? What is released when that is destroyed? What happens in the twilight of our world? Is it the birth agony of a new world or the death rattle of the old?

Rock & roll in the Kingdom by the Sea.

Four Win Teams: Vikings- Looked strong against divisional rival Green Bay. Play the Lambs week 5 and then have the Ravens. Broncos- Will have to continue to play well because they have the Pats, Chargers and Ravens over the next three weeks. Colts- Have the Titans, Lambs and 49ers over the next 3 weeks and may have a legit shot at coasting to 7-0. Giants- Play the Raiders and get the Saints in week 6. Saints- The Saints won with something that they aren't known for: defense. In fact, their defense outscored their offense against the Jets. They are off week 5 but have the Giants in week 6. 3-1 Teams The Pats- showed guts and grit against the Ravens. Have the Broncos coming up. Da Bears- Broke the Lions winning streak at one. Will have to step up their game with the Falcons and the Bengals over the next two weeks. The Jets- The Saints blitz exposed Sanchez and he can expect to see every possible blitz package over the next few weeks. But with the Dolphins, Bills and Raiders will it really matter? 49ers- The Niners are playing better ball than they have in a very long time but they've got the Falcons, Texans and Colts over the next three weeks. We'll have a better idea how much improved that they are. Bengals- Are a much improved team but we'll see how much after they play the Ravens, Texans and Bears over the next three weeks. Ravens- Are looking good so far but they have the Bengals, Vikings and Broncos and all three are playing well. The Rest Jags- Have the Seahawks, Lambs and Titans and their fortunes are looking up. Steelers- easily handled the Chargers and have the Lions, Stains and Vikings coming up. Cowboys- I don't like Philips or Romo but the Cowboys benefit with a soft schedule with the Cheifs, Falcons and Seahawks coming up. This may give them a chance to put some things in order before they get to their divisional opponents. Chargers- Play old rivals Broncos, Cheifs and Raiders over the next three weeks. They are simply too inconsistent to call. Maybe they'll go 2-1. Texans- A surprise team flirting with respectability, expect the Texans to fall apart in October: they've got the Cards, Bengals and 49ers over the next three weeks and don't have the horses to handle handle any of them. Games of the Week ____________________ Patriots-Broncos Easily the best game of the week. [Pats] Falcons-49ers A good game to see two much improved teams show what they've got. [49ers] Bengals-Ravens The Bengals have come a long way. We'll see how far in how well they do against the Ravens. [Ravens] Jets-Dolphins Unless the Dolphins are in complete disarray, they'll play the Jets close. [Jets] Other Games These should be easy wins for the favorite but who knows? Some of the favorites are playing very inconsistent ball. Cowboys-Cheifs Redskins-Panthers Vikings-Rams Steelers-Lions Raiders-Giants Bucs-Eagles Browns-Bills Jags-Seahawks Texans-Cards Week 4 Picks Ravens-Pats Ravens Saints-Jets Saints (at home) Cowboys-Broncos Broncos (at home) Chargers-Steelers Steelers Packers-Vikings Vikes 4 for 5!

Civilization has fallen and it can't get up... Write a short story, novella or novel in the post-apocalyptic genre. No zombies allowed- that crap has been done to death. You may or may not tell us what happened to the world. What will the end look like? Show us your nightmares. Hosting and time limits TBA given interest in the project. "Damn. So much for a weekend in the city..."

The Vikings (3-0) are a strong team on both sides of the ball. Their running game may be the most powerful in the NFC. The Pack (2-1) still have a lot of question marks. The worst one is their run defense. Adrian Peterson will answer that question one way or another tonight.

You can watch it on hulu

I watched the opening episode of SGU again and noticed some things. The first episode was named "AIR". BSG's 2nd episode, 1st season was named "Water". Dr. Rush has lost a wife or something- he's crying over her picture. The stargate on Icarus Base had a ninth chevron and would not connect to earth. That is why the ship was there in the first place. I suspect that Dr. Rush knew about the ancient ship. He seems to have a good grasp of the ancient language and knew how to "tell" the ship that they were in trouble and what they needed. The fat kid/video gamer needs to die horribly.

So far... It looks like sci-fi channel is using leftover crap (and actors) from BSG and Stargate to create Stargate: the Abortion. Look for a mid-season cancellation of this rip off of two successful series that owe their success to ORIGINALITY.

Aussie is hot. I am an Anglo-phile and like the British accent. The French accent is pretty cool but some people over do it and I can't help thinking about this guy: All that aside, it is the Scandinavian accents that have the power to make my knees wobble.

Chapter 20 is available now

I blame peer pressure.

Autism seems to be on the rise and a startling number of people are dealing with Asperger's- even some here. I made the post to raise awareness of a serious difficulty than many people are struggling to cope with. The pics are just an added bonus.

Clay Marzo: Liquid Cure Clay Marzo is one of the world's most gifted surfers. Clay Marzo has Asperger's syndrome' a form of high-functioning autism. And it is only when the 20-year-old steps off of dry land and immerses himself in the water that these two statements make perfect, miraculous sense. By Jonah Lehrer Source Link CLAY MARZO HAS BEEN WAITING ALL MORNING FOR WAVES. He's standing with his surfboard next to a NO TRESPASSING sign on the edge of a pineapple field, looking down at a remote beach on the northwest shore of Maui. There are no tourists here, because there is no sand, just a field of jagged lava rocks and a private dirt road. The tide is still too far out, so the waves are trashy. Clay hasn't said a word for more than an hour; he hasn't even moved. He's just stood in the hot tropical sun and stared silently at the sea. The waiting ends a few hours later, shortly after 1 P.M., when the trade winds begin to blow. Clay furiously rubs his hands together, like a man trying to start a fire, and lets out a few guttural whoops. He then grabs his board and quickly descends the steep slope in his bare feet, motioning for me to follow him. ______________________________________ Asperger's turns social interaction into a source of suffering. "It's like everyone else has a bucket for dealing with people," says Clay, "and I only got a cup." _______________________________________ There are a few surfers in the breaks to the right, away from the rocks. Clay heads to the left, where the waves are bigger. He paddles out and starts scanning the horizon, counting the seconds between the heaving swells. After a few minutes, he abruptly turns around and points his board toward the shore. His body goes taut and he starts to push backwards. The wave is still invisible

Yang- sounds like fun but at this stage, my liver would probably explode Mark- no, I was a lot mellower smoking weed. The experience has made me a much angrier person. I used to be passive-aggressive. Now I'm agressive-aggressive. If anyone understands, my favorite step is the 13th

Today I've been clean and sober 5 years. I've been through a lot of changes in that time- not all of them for the better. Seen some difficult times that I would have really rather been somewhere else. It's not easy starting again after 40. If you use drugs and alcohol, I suggest getting clean and sober earlier. People love to give second chances to young people. When you are older, I guess they figure that you should know better. It's much harder and takes more grit than most people have.

I keep the big one in my truck.

I've seen cellphones used for this purpose but I've never done it myself. I must confess that I'm a geek and am never far from my mini-maglite, Swiss Army knife and leatherman multi-tool.

Is this clown looking for a wife or a nanny?

hork, hork, hork.... KACK! Sorry, I'm OK now.

God knows it would be an improvement over the pure, unadulterated bullshit that it seems is all the screenwriters guild is capable of these days.

If you chose your partner poorly you can get a number STDs from giving oral sex. You DO NOT want herpes in your throat.

They are playing very well- much improved over last year.

The sad thing about pubes is they always come back... tougher. If you shave them regularly, you have to keep it up or you'll be growing barbed wire in your pants.

I've seen some guys around that would be pretty gross to kiss.
