Taste my nerdy blade!

Found out last night that ROME season 2 is only 10 episodes long. I bet that will not stop HBO from selling it at some crazy, more than $70 price. I can tell you that as much as I love HBO series, I will never EVER buy one. Their seasons are less than half the length of a normal season, and the prices are more than twice as much. And this is after the $15 a month I already pay for HBO. That said, I feel sad for Lucius Vorenus, and Pullo too. They are good guys. Octavian, OTOH, is some kind of freak. I daresay this is not what I took away from my history books. ;-] And as much as I hate Gaia, it was cool to see her kicking ass like a warrior.

Got an Email over the weekend from somebody who wants my support on a big project. I've got some projects of my own going on, as well as somethings I'm helping folks out with. You know what gets me though--this person has never supported me or my projects in any way. Didn't even say a word when my novel got published. Now I think I'd feel totally resentful if I even began to help this person. I don't require quid pro quo for help, but I think people have quite a nerve asking for things they choose not to provide in return. Gee, maybe I AM asking for quid pro quo. What do you guys think? Am I evil or mean for not working on this project? I fear I'll just be angry if I do it, and I've got some projects that I actually want to work on. Like I'm stoked about doing the Haunted Hillsdale press packet, for example.

Have you ever known anyone who listened to the Ween country album and didn't know it was a joke?
I have. And damn, it is ever funny!!
