Okay. So I think that Tony Almaeda is cooler than Jack Bauer. There, I said it.  Bauer may be the most dangerous person the world has ever known.  But Tony is an adminstrative genius, wears leather jackets, and saves Bauer’s life multiple times.  Oh and also, whenever he says yeah or no, it sounds extra intense because he doesn’t close his mouth when the word is finished, he kinda just breathes it out… with intensity.

He also married a hapa girl.  applause.

People I meet on a daily basis

I’ve been meeting famous people recently at work.

I met one of the guys who developed Java & javascript.

I met one of the guys who invented IDS (Intrusion Detection)

and a handful of people with Emmy Awards.

I also have sat on the same toilet as many of those mentioned above.

good tv shows nobody really watches

I think there are a lot of good shows out there.  People watch most of them.  But not all of them.  Usually everybody watches House, 24, Heroes, Lost, Fringe, the Office, 30Rock, etc.  But what about:

Bones.

It’s everything you want in a tv show. romantic tension, suspsense action, relational humor, and loveable awkward characters, and mind blowing forensic thrills.  At first you may find yourself wondering how Buffy’s Angel is suddenly an ordinary FBI agent.  But then after a few episodes you totally forget that he used to be a vampire hunk.  If you like awkward people, this show satisfies.  I will be honest, Zack, the quiet, awkward genius kid who doesn’t understand social cues, is my favorite character.

Worst Week.

At first I didn’t know what to expect with this one.  The title makes it sound like a game show. But turns out, it’s a semi-sitcomedy about a blundering, wellmeaning guy who has terrible luck.  That’s really it.  Simple, but incredibly fun and feel-good-inducing.

Burn Notice.

This is a more recent addition for me.  However it has proven itself to be worthy of watching.  The real charm in this show is the always-entertaining voice over.  The main character is a somewhat stoic, semi awkward, super versatile, spy who speaks with calculated monotone conviction.  The result is a dry, cool, flashy drama with a lot of clever twists.  I highly recommend this show to the people who like Bones, House, or Numbers.  It’s different than all the above, but at the same time it brings the same sort of action to the table.  And an extra bonus is the regular appearance of Bruce Campbell, who used to make guest appearances in Xena and Hercules…also the main character in the classic cult horror flick, The Evil Dead and Army of Darkness.

Run from your computers!

Today I found out that the Russians and Chinese are paying smackloads of money for hackers to write malware for them in order to cripple our nation’s defenses.   How’s that for organized crime.
